Long time ago, in a faraway land, when I was a medium sized lass, I hurt my back. No one actually figured out why it happened. Looking back I realize, 50% of it was depression and the rest of 50% was because I couldn’t lie down horizontally at night because of said depression. Only way I could get any sleep at night was if I curled up like a ball and used pillows to prop me up. Never told any one this, even the doctor who treated me. Cause I felt like I did something wrong and it was my fault.

This my very roundabout way of saying that don’t treat/raise your children as if they can’t come to you with their problems without feeling guilt or shame. #mentalhealth #parenting #trauma

"#Trauma, #PTBS, #Dissoziation – viele von uns haben diese Begriffe gehört, manche nutzen sie für sich. Aber woher kommen sie eigentlich? Warum verschwinden Gewalt und Täter*innen oft hinter diesen Konzepten? Und wem hilft das wirklich?

In dieser Folge sprechen wir aus Betroffenenperspektive darüber, warum „Trauma“ oft als individuelle Krankheit verpackt wird, statt als Folge von Gewalt anerkannt zu werden."

"Growing up around so many deeply conservative, deeply religious people, I think that's trauma, in and of itself. I think a lot of people in America are dealing with that now — because I think being deeply conservative & traditional in your values is child abuse.

"[When growing up] ...I had to...be able to sit with myself and think, you don't deserve to go to hell just for existing, no matter what anybody has told you."

Die Belastung von Medienleuten durch grausames #Bildmaterial ist durch Kriege und Katastrophen immer weiter gestiegen - und auch die Aufmerksamkeit für das Problem.

Ende Mai gebe ich dazu ein Tagesseminar mit der Traumatherapeutin Fee Rojas in Hannover. Auch #Freie Medienschaffende können sich anmelden.

Words matter.

For a moment let's look beyond Trump's nonsense tariff "plan" which is certain to cause global harms.

Please consider the words this abuser chose to use in defending the tariffs:

"our country has been looted, pillaged, raped and plundered”

😡 I understand the economic damage is occupying everybody's thoughts but we must call Trump out for trivializing sexual assault in this way. Allowing these phrases to go unchallenged is harmful to survivors and affects public discourse / social norms.

💜 April is #SAAM (Sexual Assault Awareness Month) - please call out this sad excuse of a man for his mysogynistic, moronic, and ironic phrasing.

The #genocide continues. These wounded Gazan kids, who luckily survived an #Israeli attack on their home, are sitting on the cold bare floor in a building that serves as ambulance. The youngest sibling just fell asleep in her older brother's lap.
