Since starting my blog, I have become much more interested in others’ blogs, thoughts, and posts. One blog that I regularly subscribe to is http://healmyptsd.com/. A blog that highlights one woman’s inspiring story regarding her own PTSD, regularly features others’ stories about their individual struggles and triumphs with PTSD, and encourages all who visit that there are ways to “triumph over trauma.”
I petitioned the writer of the blog, Michele Rosenthal, for a chance to add my story to her postings, in an effort to reach out to others by way of a different venue. I am honored to have my guest post on her blog. You can read it here: http://healmyptsd.com/2012/09/birth-trauma.html.
If you are, or someone you love is, suffering from the debilitating effects of PTSD, I encourage you to read my story, Michele’s story, and other stories of survival, hope, and success. As I always say, talking about experiences that are often stigmatized in our society is the first step to a change in how those experiences will be viewed by our society in the future.
Thanks for reading,
Lauren
