  • In this lecture from Sydney's South Pacific Private - Australia's leading treatment center for trauma, addiction and mental health - we explore Pia Mellody's Model of Developmental Immaturity and the ways in which our childhood experiences shape us into adulthood.
    We are all complex products of our past experiences and current environment. We don't exist in isolation and neither do our problems.
    For more on how trauma can shape us, and how we can break free, visit www.southpacificprivate.com.au/

    I have CPTSD. Until I could name it, I could not claim it. Now that I can claim it, I am healing it. South Pacific Private has enabled exponential healing with their videos. I can attest to the failure of decades of (multi) high dose antidepressants and therapy. Now that I understand that what I have is neurological and not chemical or psychological, I actually feel optimistic that I can experience balance and peace. Gratitude gratitude, gratitude to SPP.

I don't know why ppl are so impatient and rude. My Therapist told me to never have a customer service in person related job again. I'm disabled now. There are many grocery runner position and on line jobs now where you don't have to deal with ppl face to face

    These talks are incredible. I am an adult child of an alcoholic and have been in therapy for almost two years as well as attend ACOA meetings. It wasn't until I found all this information on Complex PTSD and my therapist did, I really start healing and it's been brutal at times. I don't have memories, but I have extreme nervousness and anxiety and body symptoms. I was told we just had depression and to take medication. God bless all the work you are doing because this was the missing piece for me!!!!!!!

    THANK YOU for this. I wish all therapists who list themselves as "trauma-informed" would be REALLY clear up front of they are trauma-TRAINED (it turns out those things are different, and I wasted about 16 years and a whole lot of money trying 10 different people before I found someone who could help me make some progress).

    Concerning setting boundaries for children or even for a significant other, set a boundary first for yourself that allows you to distinguish between setting boundaries that cross over into an "over controlling environment". A good indicator that you're being over controlling with the boundaries is when you get angry over ***trivial*** things.
    Boundaries that protect a child from danger to himself or to other around him are not trivial. When a child forgets to remove his shoes when coming in from playing outside (despite your rule of no shoes in the house) becomes a source of anger, this can allow you to become too controlling as it's a trivial matter. It can apply in any case. If you're a person that is needs to control everything, you need to have grace an patience and really think it through when creating boundaries :)
    Great video!

    I just started listening. I like the direct, uncomplicated approach to "typical" families. I'm from a middle class home; both parents had college degrees, and loved the arts, yet they lacked parenting skills. Essentially, they created 4 chaotic human beings. And I, after a life time am still picking up the pieces. The other 3? They never tried. Edit: at 55 I had a brain aneurysm. I often wonder how my childhood affected my brain; fortunately, I survived, with physical disabilities.

      You are worthy of healing and valuable 'just as you are.' You are obviously on a healing path, to have posted this. You may also look at IFS therapy (Internal Family Systems), or another body centered therapy like Hakomi therapy. It very much depends on whether the people you are looking to help or inspire you heal -- have done enough of their own work and are skillful. I wish you much healing and well-being. And I am glad you survived having an aneurysm. (Sorry to hear about the physical disabilities; no shaming to mention, not all who have aneurysms survive! Very best wishes.). PS - I also like the work of Anna Runkle (crappychildhoodfairy.com/) and many others like Peter Levine, Janine Fischer, Bessel Van der Kolk.

    Thank you for talking about the awkward feelings that can pop up during recovery- that it can be an uncomfortable experience. The last therapist I saw gave me helpful tips but unfortunately gaslit me at times too (unintentionally I believe but it didn't help things). Kind of feel like I'm fluctuating between all three stages but I'll keep your advice in mind.

    • @KoreaMojo

      You can't gaslight on accident. I wonder if they just assumed they understood incorrectly? Gaslighting is an intentional manipulation tactic to cause the target to doubt their memory and reality in order to cling to the abuser. Most often used by antisocial personality disorder identified people. You can manipulate without gaslighting but you can't gaslight without manipulating. Watch out for actual gaslighting but I don't know what you'd call what they did.

      The gentleman talking in the video is named at the beginning as Steve Stokes,.
      Marc also has his own website. He is a kind, compassionate survivor of childhood trauma. I believe that you can find the table in another video by Pia Mellody and I am sure she has written a book.
      There are other names mentioned by both Steve Stokes and Marc Moini, such as Peter Levine and Dr Dan Seigel, Pat Ogden, Steven Porges and Marc mentioned Allce Milller.
