Breaking the Cycle: How to End Suffering by Tackling Second Darts

So, like my PTSD was at a point where it was, I mean it was taking everything from me right. And sometimes I forget that, going in cause, we're, we're already here, we're already past the finish line.
Feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges and your own reactions to them? In this episode of the PTSD Recovery Workshop, Kayleen Wright and Brad Schipke introduce the concept of 'second darts'—the self-inflicted pain we add to our initial suffering. They break down the difference between first darts (the unavoidable hardships) and second darts (our negative responses), showing how these reactions can trap us in a cycle of misery.
Kayleen and Brad share practical strategies to help you recognize and stop throwing those second darts, offering tools to rewire your brain for happiness. Through relatable anecdotes and actionable advice, they guide you on how to shift from being unaware of your negative reactions to consciously redirecting your thoughts. This episode is packed with insights that could change the way you handle stress and PTSD.
Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or just trying to find more peace in your life, Kayleen and Brad's advice is a beacon of hope.
