A lot of people like myself have chronically (till recently) have gone through life with thoughts such as "Nobody understands what I am going through and it is hard for me to articulate my struggles due to invisible forces out of my control." Furthermore, I want to be me but "I fear me and fear my pain."
These people are invisible through no fault of their own and need so much help in healing their excruciatingly traumatized and violated mind, body, and soul.
Here is how I have healed.
EMDR therapy (with an exceptionally patient and non-judgemental therapist)
Medical School classmates who helped me find who I was
Journaling and writing down thoughts when my brain was processing anger
Yoga Therapy (with a yoga therapist who went through deep traumas herself)
Church dedicated to healing
Crime Victims Trauma Therapist (who is Christian)
A few home friends
My struggles in life pertained to
Undiagnosed/untreated Asperger's Syndrome
Untreated PTSD going out of control inside of me
Entrenched Depression starting in high school
Severe Anxiety at times
Shattered sleep function from childhood (finally returning to normalcy)
Addictions (sugary foods and juices, music, sexual fetishes, and video games when I was little)
Never feeling good enough in life for anyone
Being a child of a violent alcoholic father and emotionally abusive brother and mother of Brahmin Indian Culture (with so much emphasis on perfection, seriousness, conformity, and not being "a young child hippie american culture dude and had huge prejudices over guys with mental illness and disabilities. They were also extremely intolerante of LGBTs too. My mother referred to them as "being sick people"
Identity crisis of who I am as a person
Bullying in school and hurt even from people in college.
Never able to "enjoy life" and "Live life"
There is nothing wrong with these people. They are very caring souls. These people need empathy.
The system, life, and human nature is set up to work against them as "Elizabeth Warren says".
We need a Medicare-for all system taylored towards "root healing".
What else can we do?
