I’m a trauma therapist, The Body Keeps the Score is very good for C-PTSD. You should also read Gabor Mate’s books and watch his interview with Tim Ferris on YouTube. It’s called Dr Gabor Mate on trauma, addiction, Ayahuasca and more. Read Richard Schwartz work around Internal Family Systems Therapy. He did an amazing interview with Rich Roll called Multiplicity of the Mind.

There’s a lot of really good content online if you can’t access a therapist. You want to start with making sure you can self regulate and self soothe and build from there. Somatic exercises will help you.

Yep!

It’s worth noting that I do have chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia and I’m really bad at exercising 🫠

HRT helped my mental health immensely. I was in a really really dark place and going on HRT (with no other life changes) improved things within a week.

Yep, he lives for it. I adopted him when he was 5 years old and trained him as soon as he got used to me. He he gets very excited when I get his harness out and loves to go for walks. He’s 15 now and still keen everyday unless it’s really cold.
