When Trauma Clusters, Everything Gets Loud
When trauma clusters—multiple traumatic experiences happening close together or over time—everything can feel overwhelming, chaotic, and loud. This blog explores the psychological and physical impact of trauma stacking, how it triggers cycles of hypervigilance, emotional overload, and nervous system dysregulation, and offers trauma-informed strategies for healing. Learn how to recognize the signs, calm your system, and take steps toward lasting recovery with therapy, grounding practices, and self-compassion.
Understanding PTSD: The Cycle of Avoidance and Intrusion
PTSD often involves a painful cycle of avoidance and intrusion symptoms, where individuals swing between suppressing trauma and being overwhelmed by flashbacks, nightmares, or distressing thoughts. This article explores how that back-and-forth can keep people stuck, why it happens, and how therapy can help break the loop. Learn how trauma-informed care, coping strategies, and therapeutic approaches like EMDR can support real, lasting healing from PTSD.
