It doesn’t happen that often anymore, but one place where I almost always get triggered with my Childhood PTSD symptoms is when I visit the doctor. I could never even put this into words before. But now that I’m mostly healed from my Childhood PTSD symptoms, I want to express what I wish my doctors – all the doctors of my life – had understood about the effects of Childhood trauma, about me. Note: This is one of my most personal posts ever. Unless you’re someone who really prefers text, I...

Re: 12 Things I Wish My Doctor Understood About Childhood Trauma

With graduation season upon us, I have been thinking a lot about one of my favorite graduation speeches.

Hi Jim, Thanks so much for sharing. Can you say how long each of these first two courses are? Is it all video for example? Are there reading materials as well? Thanks!

I find it impossible to believe the necessary resources .are available through “tweeting” already available resources and systems. We do not have the resources needed for kids already identified to have mental health concerns much less for newly identified kids. I’m sure most doctors working for any period of time in low resource areas already know this.
