Welcome to Hello Trauma Brain. A podcast where I share my experiences living with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and what I am doing to heal and get better.

In this episode, Raysa shares the rest of her conversation with Casey Smith, host of It’s Not Normal a mental health podcast. Raysa and Casey dive deeper into the identity crisis of survivors of parental narcissistic abuse, talk about the shame of having behaved like their abusers too, hypervigilance, the power of relational healing, the importance of realizing that not everyone is like their abusers, and so much more.
