Dear Self, destroy the idea that repressing emotions is a sign of strength
This Is Hard
Are you struggling to sleep? Waking up from nightmares?
Constantly on edge and scanning the room for threats? Feel like you can’t trust anyone?
Has the drinking been a little too much and too frequent lately?
Does your partner or family complain about you not being present or engaged in life?
Can’t get certain images out of your head? Replaying stories and memories in your head over and over again?
Therapy for first responders and helping professionals can help you…
Talk to someone who gets it
Share the burden of the horrific images you have seen or heard with someone who has the capacity to hold it. You don’t have to carry the weight alone
Feel safe without constantly feeling anxious or on high alert
Transition from work life to home life more smoothly
Get some sleep again
Strengthen relationships with others without isolating
