F**K Addiction, unless it’s French Fries. Why? What? How? Addiction and PTSD steal lives.
Sorry addiction, but I have a problem with you. Don’t tell me what to do. Don’t tell my best friend what to do you evil demon. But too late, you won this time.
Addiction. PTSD. I hate you both. But here I am, almost a year in my studies to help those who can no longer help themselves.
Trauma is one of the hardest things to overcome. You have to want to feel alive again. You have to want to heal. You have to be willing to start and commit to the journey, not only for yourself, but for those that love you. You have to have the mindset that the demon will not win. The enemy will not keep preying on you. You have to be ready to fight.
So if you have a few minutes to read my story, please join me as I do not want to be seen as a victim, but instead I am here to share my story to help you share yours.
Hypnotherapy changed my journey.
Hypnotherapy is something that I never thought I would get into. I never thought that this was something that could be as powerful as it is. In fact, I never even knew WHAT hypnotherapy is. Not until I signed up for school, and got thrown into the lessons. I remember writing in the first class, “What is this – adult story time?” Wow, was I clueless on the impact that “Adult Story Time” can make to both our subconscious and conscious minds!
My Story in a Nutshell.
Growing up, I was always a codependent, but never had the skills to help people on the level that they needed, and I sure as hell was never patient enough to become a doctor in psychology. I realized I was projecting my own issues on others, trying to solve their problems by simply ignoring mine. Well this only gets you so far before you realize what you are doing, and the patterns you are repeating by avoiding your own self.
A Journey to find ME.
So my journey brought me back to Arizona summer of 2020 during the pandemic. I was a new mom, a victim of rape, and a pathetic little puppy that fell into the trap of my family constantly treating me like crap. But I did not even realize it was happening on the level that it was.
Something ignited in me when I became a mother. I realized how F**KING manipulative everyone was around me! The father of my child, my parents, and even my own brother. Constant gas lighting, projection, narcissism, hypocrisy, etc.
I am telling you, once you are in charge of another’s life, everything suddenly makes sense and the people you once trusted are now literally the devil blocking you from finding your inner peace.
And you need that inner peace to be the best person you can be not only for yourself, but for your child. That child deserves you being your best self. My mind told me loud and clear, “You have avoided your sh*t long enough so you better get it together so you do not ruin this child.”
And so I did. I reported the dad, packed my stuff and moved on with my life. But it is never that simple. However, the studies of Hypnotherapy have helped me recover from my PTSD of abuse and trauma from my childhood, and it is assisting me in recovery of the trauma of my adulthood.
I was able to turn my negative into positive, but not everyone is that lucky. My best friend overdosed just two weeks ago and my heart is shattered.
She is one of the main factors that inspired me to go back to educate myself on hypnotherapy, due to the healing factors for Addiction, PTSD and many other topics. And the worst part of this is: I do not think she even knew that I was on this path, inspired by her. And I will never be able to tell her or practice sessions on her to see if it would have assisted her in her journey of healing. The demon took over once again and F**King won.
My Sadness Will Always Exist
However, I have learned that I can take control of my feelings through Hypnosis, and not let the negative impact me in a way that is debilitating. My friend and I lost touch when she started using again because I had to protect myself and my son from her issues. I could not drown with her. I had finally found my path, and I refused to stray away from my own journey of healing.
It would have been amazing to share this journey with her, but she chose a different route. I was always hoping that I could use my skills to help her stay sober, but I will never be able to test those theories. She is gone in the physical state, but will live in my heart forever.
I almost withdrew from school because I felt like there was no point anymore, but the community I have found through this program is remarkable, and I am not going to give up. I cannot help her, but I can help someone.
I will continue to let her inspire me. I know I need to keep going with these studies. I know I need to do this. I know there are other people out there like her, who just need an alternative and a tool that can retrain their subconscious mind to fight and kill the demon before it kills them first.
Hypnosis Found Me
What’s funny is that I never even sought out this path or this school, but instead it found me. A friend of mine informed me of the benefits of hypnotherapy, the school, SWIHA and what her goals and aspirations were. I was immediately drawn to this practice.
I related to the benefits of hypnotherapy on so many levels, and knew I needed to take the next steps to educate myself on how I can help others fight their demons, and to even face my own.
It takes a lot of strength and bravery to step into a world filled with unknowns, but knowing that your ultimate goal is to train yourself to help others fight their battles, and in the process, to heal from your own battle as well.
Let Me Help You On Your Healing Journey
My ultimate goal is to assist people on the journey of healing in order to find their true selves again. We all get lost, and sometimes it seems impossible to be found. We can go deeper and deeper into our own minds through negativity, causing depression and feeling complete failure for whatever reason.
But we do not have to stay this way. We can help ourselves through taking a chance and reaching out to someone who can help us. Whether it is to quit negative habits/behaviors or to find inner peace after trauma, there is a path of healing for everyone.
You have to want to step on that path, and I want to help you find that path. Join me on this journey. Find your inner peace. Whatever is stopping you, let’s face it together.
Through my sessions with clients, not only do I learn more about the subconscious, but I realize that we all have our demons and things that hold us back. But do we not all want to live to our full potential?
Just because we have trauma from our childhoods, adulthoods, etc. does not mean that we cannot face this trauma head on in order to heal. If we keep things buried within us then they continue to live within us.
And I do not know about you, but I do NOT want my trauma living in me and controlling me anymore! It is time for me to process through what has happened in my life, debilitating or not, and to power through. By taking control of my subconscious and conscious life, I can choose what life I want to live moving forward.
Take control of your life and let me guide you on your healing journey.
Blessings,
