The Healing of Silence

Shedding Your Trauma Secrets

'ask dorothy'

The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 71

 

"No one spoke about their feelings, their pain, their grief. It was all swept under the carpet - like it didn't exist."

~

Keeping trauma a secret has real consequences.

The research is clear. Trauma memories that you keep a secret, that you never speak about... can lead to increased psychological and physical problems, including a heightened and overactive stress response, bouts of unexpected and often uncontrollable anxiety and fear when you are triggered by the past, shame, self-isolation, and difficulties forming and maintaining healthy relationships.

Keeping trauma a secret definitely hinders the healing process and creates a sense of ongoing victimization.

In this episode, the real life stories of how damaging it is to keep trauma a secret and my best recommendations for how you can begin to name the truth and to speak about it in a way that will help you effectively heal.
