Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8

[Frosted]

Yeah, seeking refuge in an imaginary world is a natural coping mechanism when the real world doesn’t feel safe

I also agree that if Shannon were to create a PTSD/C-PTSD sub, it would need to directly target nervous system dysregulation since that’s at the core of why progress feels like an uphill battle. The most important part of healing C-PTSD is rewiring the nervous system and helping it return to a regulated state - making it feel safe enough shift out of chronic stress and hypervigilance. Without that no real healing can take hold imo

@Shannon, would you consider creating a PTSD-specific sub in the future, primarily designed to rewire the nervous system to a healthy baseline and restore a sense of safety?

Sure.  But that is going to require sufficient research first.

I’d be interested in a super duty OGSF3/E7 designed for C-PTSD. I’m pretty sure I have C-PTSD and OGSF 5.11G and E6 5.11G were extremely helpful. Adding C-PTSD support can only make it kick even more ass.
