Depression, Shame, and Rumination: The 'Low Energy Gang' in CPTSD Recovery

We can choose instead to use our brains to analyze all the ways that we are going to be responsible for our new lives, instead of thinking of all the ways that we're responsible for the misery of our past lives.
Ever felt like you're trapped in a cycle of relentless self-criticism and low energy? You're not alone. In this episode of 'CPTSD Recovery: We Are Traumatized Motherfuckers', the host tackles the trio of depression, shame, and rumination—dubbed the 'Low Energy Gang'. These unwelcome companions often travel together, feeding off each other and making it feel nearly impossible to break free.
The episode dives into the neuro-psychological aspects of clinical depression and explores how these low-energy states might actually be key to recognizing and disrupting the cycle. By understanding how rumination fuels shame, which in turn deepens depression, listeners gain insights into the tangled web of their own thoughts and feelings. The host also emphasizes the importance of taking responsibility for one's own mental health and offers practical strategies for rewiring those negative thought patterns.
Whether you're dealing with CPTSD or just struggling with the weight of these emotions, this episode provides a candid look at how to start reclaiming your life.
