Isolation is not going to change that. When I get out in the world and I start showing myself and people are like you’re not the worthless piece of shit you thought you are. I’m like really tell me more. You’re good at this. You’re good at that. I never saw it that way. We have that one perspective: our own internal belief system. The only way that gets changed is by being a part of something greater than yourself, being part of a community.
Imagine trying to climb a mountain alone, with no one to guide you or share the load. That's often how it feels when you're battling trauma or anxiety. In this episode of 'It's Not You, It's Your Trauma', Joe Ryan teams up with Drew Linsalata from 'The Anxious Truth' to explore the crucial role of community in recovery.
Both hosts have walked the hard road of overcoming personal demons, and now they share their insights on how connecting with others can make all the difference. Joe and Drew dive into how communities provide validation and support, helping individuals realize they're not alone in their struggles. Joe talks about how isolation can intensify feelings of shame and create a distorted belief system.
Being part of a community offers a mirror where you see that others face similar battles, which can be incredibly healing. Drew brings his perspective as a former anxiety sufferer and current mental health advocate. He emphasizes how communities offer different viewpoints that can help shift your mindset and break free from isolation.
The episode highlights the benefits of having people to look up to and support, as well as the profound impact of helping others on your own healing journey. This episode isn't just about theory; it's filled with real-life examples and heartfelt stories that illustrate the power of community. Whether you're struggling with trauma, anxiety, or simply feeling alone, Joe and Drew's conversation offers a beacon of hope and practical advice on finding strength together.
