Understanding Trauma: A Veteran's Day Conversation on The Sober Highway

When we're thinking about blaming the self, also having negative thoughts about oneself, some people forget the trauma completely. So it's just really important to remember that that is not true. That may be our mental health issues coming up, our depression, anxiety.
Trauma can leave lasting scars, and understanding its impact is crucial for healing. In this special Veteran's Day episode of The Sober Highway, hosts Dan and Anika dive deep into the topic of trauma and its effects on mental health. They tackle a range of issues including PTSD, substance abuse, and the negative thought patterns that often accompany traumatic experiences.
Dan and Anika emphasize the importance of seeking help and processing trauma through therapy, shedding light on how different people respond to traumatic events—some may forget the trauma entirely, while others might blame themselves. The episode also features answers to listener questions from TikTok and a review of episode 2 of 'Dopesick'. This conversation is a heartfelt reminder that healing is possible with positive thinking and self-compassion. Tune in to gain insights and find support on your journey towards recovery.
