Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions

Michael D.

Hello, welcome to the podcast of health and healing in the areas of addiction and abuse, with Michael. My passion and interest started with becoming aware that many of us have childhood traumas that we carry into our adult lives, but we didn't have them addressed or never acknowledged that we had an addiction or a mental illness. Some of the abuses, we suffered were slight or verbal that we just wrote off, other abuses were kept in secret for many years. Now we want to expose those lie-based beliefs, through tools and partnering with the Holy Spirit to help us heal those traumas and Illnesses to become whole. Hurt people hurt people, so we must seek ways to heal so that we can assist others in their healing processes. Disclaimer: * I am not a doctor or professional therapist. However, I am licensed and an ordained Minister, who's interest was piqued as it related to my personal journey and struggles with addictions and abuses that found their way into every aspect of my life unknowingly. God knows I'm a work in progress. Come along as we heal together.

“Abuse is a huge problem in America with almost one in three adult women and more than one in five adult men reporting having experienced physical, sexual or psychological intimate partner abuse in their lifetime.”

When you think of abuse, physical harm might come to mind first. But what about the scars you can't see? In this episode, Michael dives deep into the often overlooked but equally damaging world of emotional abuse. He breaks down the various forms it can take, from intimidation and humiliation to isolation and excessive control. These non-physical acts can leave lasting impacts on one's mental well-being and overall ability to function.

Michael doesn't just stop at identifying the signs; he offers a roadmap for healing. Through counseling, therapy, and self-care, he highlights how victims can start to rebuild their sense of self and develop self-compassion. With a compassionate and empathetic tone, Michael provides practical advice on setting healthy boundaries and recognizing what a healthy relationship looks like.

Whether you're directly affected by emotional abuse or seeking to understand its impact better, this episode offers valuable insights and support on the journey to recovery.
