Toxic positivity is a deeply embedded part of our culture, and it can infiltrate into our mindset and affect our emotional and relational self-care.

Everyone Is Talking about Trauma, But What Is It, Truly? | by @JenniferKindera buff.ly/MYMOxN3
Is trauma just an event, like a car accident or a hurricane? Or is it consistent and frequent events, like childhood abuse or emotional neglect?

When someone breaks a bone, we don't call them "ill." We call them injured, hurt. There's nothing wrong with being ill; it's just not an accurate description. That's why I don't consider CPTSD & Dissociative Identity Disorder "mental illnesses." They are injuries. Survivors are hurt & in need of recovery, not sick in need of a "cure."

“When we are born, we have the #cognition of #shame. This is where it differs from #guilt, as guilt is a secondary #emotion, not a primary..Shame is meant to protect us, to keep us safe.”: buff.ly/KA9pe9D by @jenniferkindera #MentalHealth
