What You'll Learn About Mental Health and Mental Strength
Sometimes people assume that PTSD stems from weakness. But that's not true.
Anyone might become traumatized after a near-death experience, a natural disaster, or after witnessing tragedy.
While there are some things we can do to increase our resilience to trauma, there's no guarantee that you won't develop mental health problems.
It takes mental strength, however, to recognize that you may have a problem and to seek support. But doing so could be the key to reducing your symptoms and helping you live your life to the fullest.
You can't go around it. You can't go over it. You gotta go through it. And that's unfortunately the treatment when it comes to trauma work. But trust me when I tell you it will be worth it and you can move through it." | | | | | | | | | You are receiving this newsletter because you subscribed to the Healthy Mind newsletter.
