But because I wasn't addressing my trauma, I would end up getting to that same point where I would just want to crawl out of my skin and I didn't know how to cope with what I was feeling.
What happens when the weight of trauma meets the struggle of addiction? In this episode of The Recovered Life Show, Amber bravely shares her journey from darkness to light. Growing up, Amber faced depression and traumatic experiences that she felt unable to discuss. Turning to drugs and alcohol seemed like a way out, but it only deepened her pain and misery.
Her story takes a hopeful turn when she's diagnosed with PTSD, helping her finally understand the roots of her addiction. Amber discusses how EMDR therapy became a game-changer, allowing her to stay present and process her thoughts more naturally. She also highlights the critical role of self-compassion and professional help in her recovery. Amber's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the possibility of healing, even when the odds seem insurmountable.
