I recently read When the Body Says No by Gabor Maté and The Body Keeps The Score by Bessel van der Kolk after starting therapy again, post heart attack, part of cardiac rehab. I’ve suspected for years that I have CPTSD, but for some reason doctors seem unwilling to diagnose me with it. I know I have it now. Along with my husband and mother. Intergenerational. I’m not telling everyone about it though because unlike the heart attack, people aren’t ready to deal with it. My mom isn’t ready to deal with hers, never mind dealing with mine. And neither is my husband. My body manifested my trauma as chronic back pain that’s had me laid out for 3 months topped by a heart attack. Until I started therapy again and reading nothing helped. Until nurses and doctors start actually paying attention post heart attack too helped I think. Until I started feeling heard. All that oversharing to say in my ADHD way I’m sorry you’re going through this chronic nausea. I had a few weeks of that while adjusting to my new heart meds, it’s not fun. I hope it eases up for you soon.
💗 I’m grateful for your share, thankful for your thoughts and will be keeping you in my prayers for continued progress in this season of healing and growth
