My most important message to you is to not give up and as more methods and better ways of healing trauma are being found all the time.

Don’t forget about art therapy that is really great for getting your feelings out so you express what you feel. As you need to feel your emotions to release them. This can be painful to do this but it is necessary to release these trapped feelings and emotions in your body. As these emotions and feelings are all trapped in your cell memories of your body and need to be released so you heal and do better. As a healer i am well aware that your cells in your body hold all of these emotions and feelings in the cells memories so you need to find a safe way to release these.

The difference between post traumatic stress disorder and complex is that post traumatic stress is from one incident where as complex is many different incidents so it is harder to heal and recover as you are healing from multiple  incidents sometimes a life time of incidents. There is also trauma in your lineage that you hold so this can be from other life times which is past on in the cells of your parents or your ancestors when you are born. The more work you do on all of this the better you will do in your life.
