Do You Ever Recover From Ptsd? Posted: 11-13-07 06:54am
Do you ever recover from PTSD?
I knew a woman once who was traumatized by
some childhood events... what are the
steps for recovery? Because it seemed
like she was in a lot of pain.

there are many steps. the first is to seek
professional help. you have to get to know
your triggers very well if you want to get
better.
personally i don't think you can totally
get rid of it BUT i know that it can be
dealt with and put in it's place so you
can move forward in life.
PTSD is extremely painful and confusing.
sorry for your friend's misfortune, and
you too if you have PTSD.

YES! you can get rid of it. the trick is
finding a psychologist that works in
psychosomatic therapy. There are several
programs out there. Check out these two
books: Waking the Tiger by Peter Levine
and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) by
David Berceli. I started with Waking the
Tiger and have been learning how to
meditate and working with some of the
exercises in these books and some my
psychologist gave me and I can't believe
how much better I am! please try it. its
like a miracle to be released from PTSD

I am a therapist. I practice yoga-breath
therapy. In 1984 I was quickly healed of
years of emotional problems with yoga
breathing. It changed my life and I became
a therapist.
One of my clients was a former soldier who
told me “I brought Vietnam home with
me.” By his sixth yoga breathing session
he said, “I no longer think about
Vietnam.”
All emotional problems are a form of PTDS.
Get into yoga breathing, and heal of
emotional problems. Psychiatry doesn’t
want you to know about this, that you can
heal just be breathing in the right way.
They are afraid it will invalidate
psychiatry, as it should.
Yoga breathing is also known as
“rebirthing” and “conscious
breathing”. Find people who are called
“rebirthers”. There’s plenty of
information on the internet, key words:
rebirthing, rebirthers, conscious
breathing. When you do the breathing avoid
taking any medication, it will diminish
the efficacy of the breathing process.
