It's a public re-release! Here's a full length talk from the ole episode catalogue. 

Rough times, huh? Emotional/cognitive scrambling?  We've been talking tiny details - TODAY, going the opposite route. Laying out BIG picture concepts for rethinking your entire existence so far, and having more control over your brain every day into the future. Let's cement a line in the sand about who YOU are, versus your BRAIN, versus your automated meat jump suit.  It's the brain-conceptualizations that have saved my soul (or... whatever this thing is) Motherfuckers. A way to start studying your thoughts and emotions without fear of how they depreciate your value on the planet.  

For more anti-humanistic-abuse, pro-YOU thinking help, hit up patreon and search "traumatized motherfuckers."

Cheers, take care and be safe out there.

When we're continually around a certain stimulus that creates predictable, psychonoxious brain responses inside of us... what happens? Well, over time, you might bring that stimulus inside yourself.

And it's all a shitshow from there.

If we can't get away from whatever is riling up a head, we might be activating certain "hotspots" of brain activity. Dense areas with many connections that are less linked with other brain cells. And over time, those pieces of your self... might become more dominant than your full, real, true personality.

Today, we're talking about losing your self to dis-integrated brain bits under continual stimulus control. Cuz it's not enough to lose your emotions, lose your physical condition, and lose your will to live. We also over-commit until we lose our selves.

Want to learn more about disassociation, parts, and re-integration of yer self? Hit the private feed at patreon.com/traumatizedmotherfuckers for dozens of shows on the topics.

Wondering about how you know when it's time to call it quits? Hit up the supplemental episode, "When is it time to leave a situation?"

So you've got a head full of traumatic events and the punches just keep rolling.

What happens when we're "partly recovered"... only to have some new information/event seep in and stir our history of negative narratives up? Do we admit we're struggling? Or do we "push through" the remerging symptoms for as long as we can, entering into a trauma-classic cycle:

Symptomatic Ignorance - Overcompensation - Collapse - Paroxysm

What does it mean about us if we falter in our progress? Are we weak for "failing to resist" against this new information? Or are we wise to aim for resilience - acknowledging there are bugs in our brain programming rn, falling down, but ultimately getting thefuckbackup? Plus, how does this conversation apply to our current traumacult culture?

Today, let's do a quick catchup - what've we been covering on the Patreon opt-in podcast stream all spring while this host has gone through her own Ignorance-Overcompensation-Collapse-Paroxysm-Reintegration cycle.

Welcome back, Fuckers. Missed you guys (nongendered).

See you in the anticult

Cheers 🍻

Convinced you aren't individually damaged, doomed, or destitute yet? Sick. But that comfort doesn't do much good if your brain, behaviors, and life don't change along with the perspective. 

Here are 10 steps for CPTSD recovery and your life redesign. Keeping in mind, "different strokes for different folks," "different gains for different brains." Let the experiment begin. 

See you on the other side, Motherfucker.

Cheers y'all, and thanks for the time you've given your brain.

Do you edit your daily activities to feel "acceptable," to the detriment of your own wants, needs, and goals? Can you see yourself clearly from the outside, on one timeline? Do you have the power to "drop out" of your brain and observe its activities as a separate observer? 

Maybe not.

Today, we're talking about the loss of "Self" - the most flowery and easily dismissible of the CPTSD hallmarks... which might explain why we continually lose progress in trauma recovery. It's the key to keeping your brain, behaviors, and 'balance' on track. The cognitive task-manager that knows what you're here to accomplish. The center of human "purpose" and autobiographical experience. And the most elusive of the CPTSD recovery tools - especially when its been deemed "shameful" for so long. 

Let's talk about your Self. My favorite top-down and bottom-up tool for bypassing dissociation and keeping that brain in working order. 

Uh, lot more to say about this one. My Self has been a bit conceptually Self-obsessed, as it relates to neurobiology and plasticity. Check those detailed episodes out at patreon.com/traumatizedmotherfuckers and prepare to see your brain from a management-enabling distance that allows life-managing clarity. 

It might be the best thing you've ever done for your Self. 

Cheers Fuckers.

What's the difference between "being a good person" and sacrificing your whole life to support others? In most of our families and social structures... there isn't one. Which makes it pretty hard to name the problem, re-examine your instincts to serve, or stand up for your right to operate your own brain. 

Today, let's talk about one of the most ignored and normalized survival responses. Fawning. 

If history has anything to say - sorry to everyone who kickstarts a new round of therapy because of this conversation. It's been a commonly enlightening topic for revealing accepted, pervasive, trauma patterning. 

For a lot more talk on fawning, including some 2021 year-end wrapups that are coming out in January, hit up patreon.com/traumatizedmotherfuckers. Check t-mfrs.com if yer curious about the whole project, and to find visual versions of the shows. 

Cheers, MFucking Fawners.
