Innocence Wrapped in Cellophane

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 My wounded inner child is never as safe as we are programmed to believe through our delusions of safety. Self medicating exposes him in ways that we can never see or stop. One critical step on the journey is to regulate your medication. #cptsd #therapyart #partstherapy #complextrauma #healing

An End to The Reign

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 The rage and the longing for justice are one in the same and never go away. He deserves to pay for what he did to me and I have imagined delivering swift justice to him every day of my adult life. Learning to not let this poisonous rage completely ruin me has taken most of my energy for as far back as I can remember. I am finally able to accept this is a secondary emotion that hides my shame. #cptsd #healing #sasurvivor🖤 #faceyourdemons #hidingmyshame

Note to Self

It is not as easy as other posts but notes to myself sure do help serve my healing more than the rest. I need to have compassion and accountability for myself to create the capacity to give that love to others. These are the behaviors I change to grow from chasing bliss to finding peace. #deepthoughts #healingjourney #accountability #complextrauma #fyp

Learning Disorder

I can own the reaction and I know now how to make sure it never happens again. Draw a boundary around what you reacted too whether the other person respects it or not. Its worth it either way. #boundaries #relationships #fyp #accountability #healing

Sleeping Dogs Lie

Sleeping Dogs Lie Music ripples through my soul Giving my emotions a reason to scream Weight of my world takes its toll A Soundtrack to my lonely dream Right where I wanted to be Time continues to pass me by Carry the ones that still believe Curl up where the sleeping dogs lie The illusion of you Got me this far The reality of you Lives in my scar As the ink is pressed against my skin Confusion and clarity continue chaos Rhyme and reason fail me again Everything that Matters pays the cost Everyday I fight, some days I even win Most of the time, that win is the lie Truth is laughing while I take it on the chin Hoping that one day, my sleeping dogs die Sleeping Dogs will Lie Sleeping Dogs Won’t Die Sleeping Dogs will Lie Sleeping Dogs Won’t Die The illusion of you Got me this far The reality of you Lives in my scar #sleepingdogs #deepthoughts #healingjourney #fyp #cptsd

Somatic Thinking

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 An important lesson learned is becoming aware of my body and cptsd to the effect that I can accept my panic attacks. I always tried to make them nonexistent and will them out of my universe. But I am human just like everyone else.

Awareness and Connection

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 Awareness and Connection: A very difficult part of the journey has been remembering how I felt as a kid. One of the best parts about IFS therapy is how it helps you emotionally remember. That develops your emotional flashback awareness, so a critical step indeed. #cptsd #sasurvivor🖤 #complextrauma #partstherapy #hypervigilance

Lagidorp

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 Lagidorp: Everyone has their origin story, mine is the uno reverse of the Prodigal Son. My own path led me to love but only because it always remained my north star.

Making Space

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 Making Space: The loneliness of isolating to safely de-escalate and ground your body to its steady state is painful. Deep down we all need to be loved, especially at our worst. The abandonment is too much to bear through it all so we medicate to numb the pain. It is impossible to see but we are never really alone. #faceyourdemons #cptsd #healing #therapyart #abandonmentissues

Clarity

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 Clarity: Learning about my cptsd diagnosis was comforting, just like so many others, because it helped me understand why I am this way. Always on alert, the world is just way different through my eyes because of what I have been through. Not because there is something wrong with me. #healing #cptsd #triggeredstate #Iseeininfared #safetyisadelusion

Strength to Carry On

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 Strength to Carry On: I have taken so many walks when in a triggered state and although it is helpful it is painful. The distortion, the resonance, the haunting is so difficult to push through. It always helps and reduces in the end so I continue to walk as an important part of my healing journey. #Iseeininfared #triggeredstate #cptsd #healing #therapyart

A Real Man

I Grieve

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 I Grieve: The grief is so crippling at times as it adds to the pain of the abandonment and there is no stopping the tears. I have spent so much time just sitting in my grief and abandonment. Innocence was not a privilege I was blessed to receive. #cptsd #grievingmyinnocence #sasurvivor🖤 #conditionedbyabuse #therapyart

A Fighting Chance

CN3D

For those of us that get it, we know its a curse that we have to heal from in order to turn it into a gift. Whether life is two dimensional (black and white) or inclusive of three or more points of view, I will always be amazed at how the colors collide. #therapyart #cptsd #Iseeininfared #colorscollide #healing

I buried him next to my innocence. #healing #cptsd #therapyart #letshamego #conditionedbyabuse

Through the Looking Glass

Always Wrong

Hope

TikTok post — 2025-11-06 Hope: Ages 12 to 21 were hell for me, mostly self-induced suffering to avoid getting hurt.

Rabbit Hole

Philosophical

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Philosophical: Some really connecting imagery for my complex reality of trauma, shame, hopelessness, sadness, abandonment and abuse. Am I crazy? Or am I high?

The Chameleon Boy

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 The Chameleon Boy: Sharing my Chameleon soul is a nightmare come true. The fear of failure and disappointment in hurting the ones I love most is killing me.

The Infinite Staircase

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 The Infinite Staircase: Groomed by a predator, conditioned to submit. At the age of six there is no concept of consent. Just manipulation for their copulation.

Blame cemented the Shame

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Blame cemented the Shame: The worst part of my story to tell is that day she caught him. She immediately blamed and shamed me with names I to this day, can't even write. The physical abuse as she dragged me across the street to my house didn't hurt as much as being sent to my room. I prayed I would be tried, convicted, and executed instead. #therapyart #sasurvivor🖤 #cptsd #abandonment #healing

Invisible

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Invisible: When you were raised unseen, whether it was because if deeply disturbing trauma or good old-fashioned common household neglect, life is a haunted dream.

The Road To Nowhere

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 The Road To Nowhere: I have wandered through life so lost inside because of the secrets I hid in shame.

Secondary Abuse

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Secondary Abuse: That is what I often call it and it is more inexcusable than the SA. I was blamed horribly and grossly so they didn't have to suffer.

She was evil and I see her in so many ways and in so many nightmares. I should have told my parents she was lying and I was being abused.

The Nothing

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 The Nothing: This is an AI image of the Nothing from the Neverending story. A movie just like Pinocchio that triggered me horribly as a kid.

Terrible Lie

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Terrible Lie: The effects grooming had on me at such a young age, let alone the abuse, were permanent.

Hopefully soon, he can just go play and adult me can finally put the pieces back together this time. #therapyart #cptsd #distorteddimension #partstherapy #exposingthedamage

Wolves and Lions

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Wolves and Lions: The wolf befriended me then devoured my innocence like a midnight guilty pleasure snack.

Let Go and Let God

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Let Go and Let God: Trigger Disclaimer for the Mom's out there, this is the worst part and inhuman. Truly evil and you know it because how much it goes against your nature to nurture. My abuser was caught by his Mom, who went off on me and put a white stripe of fear down my back like in the 80's cartoons. She called me horrible names and then dealt with me in disgust and violence. Dragged me across the street to my house to my Mother, who in shock at this monster just sent me to my room...never to be discussed again. Just my secret for 44 years now. The sarcasm and the darkness dance for me in this one and if I lose focus staring through it I see the light of God helping me to slowly let go of this shame she created. #secondaryabuse #cptsd #healing #therapyart #FaithOverFear

Safehouse

TikTok post — 2025-11-07 Safehouse: The emotional flashbacks are as tough as the shame to sit in, accept and try to heal from. There is a space I created when being abused, then I buried it as deep as I could. It was opened in 2021 when my worst dad nightmare came true and someone hurt my child like I was hurt. When I finally realized the door was open it was too late and it broke me. I was diagnosed a few weeks later and suffered breakdowns for a few years until I finally accepted my cptsd. Welcome to my space in time where I hide and feel just fine. #cptsd #healing #exposingthedamage #therapyart #isolation

Just a Shell of a Man

I feel little Jason when I see this, I feel his energy as if it we somehow separate but a part of me. This is IFS, or Parts Therapy. It helped me remember finally, I struggled to feel that pain again when brainspotting. The shell is broken and slowly falling away. #therapyart #healing #cptsd #partstherapy #lovewillfindaway

The Perfect Metaphor

It is not a matter if worth, but a story of a fool that stopped believing she was a real girl. #therapyart #healing #cptsd #isolation #failingtolove

TikTok post — 2025-11-08 The Vault: For 40 years I locked up my inner child, or at least any memory or mention of what we went through. My wife was the only one who knew, least I could do after what I put her through. This is how deep it can go, the spiral staircases have no end insight. #isolation #therapyart #abandonment #cptsd

Opening up to The Word

TikTok post — 2025-11-08 Opening up to The Word: For me God speaks through everything, which led me to be accountable and accept that everything includes scriptures. Psalms are scriptures I am grateful for, gives me hope and faith. Like the millstone, there is no comfort in realizing people get what they give. #cptsd #therapyart #letgoandletgod

Dreamspotting

TikTok post — 2025-11-08 Dreamspotting: When my therapist learned how vividly I still remember my childhood and adult nightmares she challenged me to create content of them. That is my transition into exposure therapy, I take you all with me. The more I watch this and the more its viewed the less it will mess me up. This therapy art is about to get really dark but that is the point.#therapyart #cptsd #healing #dreamspotting #exposuretherapy

Devil in Disguise

TikTok post — 2025-11-09 Devil in Disguise: She has taken many forms in my nightmares over the years. I still vividly remember so many of them, time will never erase them from my memory. She has murdered my friends, strangers, and me in my nightmares. The meaning behind the dreams are obvious but for me it is the exposure now that is my therapy. #cptsd #therapyart #exposuretherapy #dreamspotting #secondaryabuse

Just Killing Time

TikTok post — 2025-11-09 Just Killing Time: Most of my days feel like I am just killing the time so it doesn't kill me. Isolated, invisible, I am known strictly for what I provide.

Isolation from Desolation

TikTok post — 2025-11-09 Isolation from Desolation: The imagery in the one speaks so much to me. I have multiple versions that help trigger my abandonment, which is why I isolate. I posted this version because this song and the images help me face the fact that I have self isolated for protection and I am trying to convince myself that I was not made to love this way. #abandonment #healing #isolation #cptsd #therapyart

Taking off the Mask

TikTok post — 2025-11-09 Taking off the Mask: The true face of my pain and my shame, of the abandonment and abuse. Tears of blood stain my real face, and after years of seeing people turn away all I can do is just laugh and bleed. My road to healing started when I found someone who leaned in when I took off the mask instead of turning away. #therapyart #cptsd #healing #abandonment #traumatherapy

Blood in the Water

TikTok post — 2025-11-19 Blood in the Water: Sometimes the only way out is through the fire. We villify and crucify instead of connecting and sharing perspectives. It is so easy to hate and so tough to love, especially when it comes to our self. The world is full of our critic more than the people living in it. Our Critic takes the shape of others so easily, we see with our triggers not our hearts. I am learning it is better to be burned at the stake then get caught holding the torch. #healing #therapyart #cptsd

Skeletons of Society

TikTok post — 2025-11-19 Skeletons of Society: The angry mob mentality is clue number one that something is wrong. Salem Witch trials were enough for me, history doesn't need to keep repeating does it? Only thing that changes is how we villify, exile, and shame ourselves and others. I saw a Ted Talk about redefining love as boundaries, accountability and grace. Lets try that at least with ourselves and go from there? #fyp #therapyart #cptsd #healing #redefininglove

Just Another Nightmare

TikTok post — 2025-11-21 Just Another Nightmare: ThIs is a recurrung nightmare that started from this game we played swimming as a kid. We would pretend we went through portals to another diimension and then arrive in a strange new world. CS Lewis meets the Twighligut Zone. It always ended in me on my own and then being chased by some horrifying creature. I would always slip, fall and get caught. Then wake up in a horror, wondering what the hell was wrong with my imagination. These nightmares and the clarity of them all these years later are my marker for the level of trauma I went through. At least this one hasn't showed up since I had kids. #fyp #conditionedbyabuse #cptsd #therapyart #healing

Trauma Therapy

TikTok post — 2025-11-21 Trauma Therapy: The shit works if you have unresolved childhood trauma. We all do, the more undressed and packed away the worse our symptoms get. The more time goes by the more it feels impossible to overcome. It took me 3 years to accept the diagnosis but a year into trauma therapy and there ain't no denying that it is rhe problem and the remedy. I have progressed into exposure therapy and even though I would rather pull out my own fingernails it is releasing the shame. Shame is the root and abandonment is the tree. #cptsd #healing #exposuretherapy #trusttheprocess #complextrauma

The Brutal Truth

TikTok post — 2025-11-22 The Brutal Truth: I have struggled to accept the truth about my complex ptsd brain. Learning how it functions has helped me accept the truth of how my brain distorts my reality. It felt like my last resort and thank God accepting it is paying off, but finding the balance is tough. Having boundaries just got a whole lot more impossible so healing our brain, our nervous system and developing the emotional intelligence to manage the flashbacks are critical to the transformation. #therapyart #cptsd #complextrauma #trusttheprocess #CapCut

The Problem is the Answer

TikTok post — 2025-11-22 The Problem is the Answer: We all experience trauma, especially as children but also throughout our lives. Healing is a journey of the self but not one that we can do alone. We need an outlet, an ear, a guide, and friend, a mentor, a platform, a pen. We have to let it go but need something to lean on when we do. Find your something, if your alone than face your fear and use what the universe is giving you. This profile is my way of letting it go, no one is ever really alone. #cptsd #therapyart #healing #letshamego #fyp

This is a Crime Scene

TikTok post — 2025-11-23 This is a Crime Scene: More than a school it is where my innocence and free will were forcibly thrown into a bottomless grave. It was a Saturday afternoon, no one around so it was the devil's playtime with me. I am trying to sit with my 6 year old self in my room later that day but then he tells me things like we started showering on our own that day. Or how freaked out he was from the blood, horrified that they would find out and beat him with their belts until we bled some more. It is horrible and suffocating. Physically it sends my BP into the 180's and makes my chest flutter and ache. I try to sit with him and remember as much as I can handle. This content and the next two are for him. #therapyart #exposuretherapy #letshamego #sasurvivor🖤 #partstherapy

Hunting Wabbit

Forty something years later and I can still feel his hands squeezing the hell out of me. I grabbed that table and screamed in pain but no one could here me. We were far enough away, no one could hear but if a car drove by they might see. Not how my story goes, instead I was trapped in a cage and was force fed his rage for two years. #therapyart #cptsd #sasurvivor🖤 #letshamego #CapCut

Shadows Carry Light

TikTok post — 2025-11-23 Shadows Carry Light: Learning to accept that I have an inner critic like everyone else has led me to get to know this part of me. He deserves the Oscar for the performances he has done for me. He was born out of my shame and protected me while I stayed safe in my tree of abandonment. He was the food source I needed to grow leaves of fear to cover me from their abuse and neglect. This year, the changing of the seasons will take these leaves and I will transform to grow a different leaf in the Spring. #therapyart #cptsd #partstherapy #fyp #CapCut

Identity Crisis

Playfull Madness

TikTok post — 2025-11-25 Playfull Madness: There is something so free about shining light onto our darkness. There is a toxic avenger part of me that I keep deep down inside trapped inside a Prism, inside a prison. He is that voice that tells me to self soothe and medicate, using whatever it is I am trying not to use that day. Sugar is essential the way I consume it and medications dont help with this part. Strength comes from within, so through discipline and distraction I lock in and ride it out until toxic Avenger falls asleep. #fyp #complextrauma #healing #therapyart #cptsd

TikTok post — 2025-11-26 The Road Less Travelled: I have awakened to see the destruction in the aftermath. The desolation of my innocence, my identity, and my freedom. Parts therapy makes sense because you are broken into pieces under trauma. That break in the psyche can mend, but waking up together again hurts worse. #fyp #CapCut #complextrauma #cptsd #therapyart

Mother of all Lies

TikTok post — 2025-11-26 Mother of all Lies: The Mother wound is born from the wounds our Mothers carry. They can destroy the chance of another mother suffering like they have by the hands of their sons. I was given the blessing and curse of having two mother wounds, both stemming from the same son. t#CapCut

War Games

Happy Pills

TikTok post — 2025-11-26 Happy Pills: The lifetime of trauma response is more if a challenge than the abuse but it is horrible to admit that your inner child still needs saving. Until, you realize that you, the person you are right now, is the only one that can rescue him. The slowly but surely, one happy pill at a time you begin to lean how to be your own hero in the suffering. #cptsd #therapyart #complextrauma #partstherapy #fyp

Replacing the Critic

The Truth will Set You Free

TikTok post — 2025-11-27 The Truth will Set You Free: Trying to come to terms with the fact that my inner child wants to be saved and that I am the only one that can hold him through the shame and make sure he finally knows he is not to blame. It honestly feels like a hopeless battle but I am trying to believe that I will laugh tomorrow when I can't even smile today. #exposuretherapy #therapyart #cptsd #fyp #letshamego

Take the Time to Focus

TikTok post — 2025-11-27 Take the Time to Focus: Sarcasm is thick with the music for this one, but it fits too well. The hope that we should all have as we wake up is not a reality for this diagnosis. We can get there, and it really still is first light, we just have to wade through the darkness to find it first. So first light but second breath. This is why I try to give myself 30 minutes every morning to be still. That is how I find the light, doesnt always work sometimes it does. #fyp #cptsd #therapyart #complextrauma #healing

Stranger Things

TikTok post — 2025-11-27 Stranger Things: This one is a lot to process, there is alot of meaning to each of the images for me. It is a progression through the years of sexual abuse, which was 6 to 8 years old for me. I had to go to a land of make believe to survive his cat and mouse game. That make believe is what has haunted me ever sense, which is why I make so many of these videos. #complextrauma #therapyart #cptsd #healing #exposuretherapy

Mile Marker 7

TikTok post — 2025-11-28 Mile Marker 7: Going to take a moment to stop and reflect on the distance traveled. I had to take my time and progress into this understanding, I had a lot to unpack and work through. The exposure therapy helps. This account helps to seriously process my triggers. Still not a fan of the word, but they are real and my responsibility. I have at least learned to face and sit with myself in my triggered moments, no matter how bad they get. #fyp #therapyart #cptsd #remindertomyself #healing

Common Ground

TikTok post — 2025-11-28 Common Ground: This is definitely a common trait with CPTSD, a relentless and unstoppable pursuit for survival.

Just depends on the fire so I just need to work on cleaning up the fuel. #healing #remindertomyself #cptsd #fyp #CapCut

Step Backwards to go Forward

TikTok post — 2025-11-29 Step Backwards to go Forward: The decision to do trauma therapy was not made lightly. I spent a lot of time worrying about the impact and working to resolve my fear so I no longer saw it as counterproductive. What I was really afraid of was how I would react, imagining being thrown into a straightjacket and a padded room was on repeat for weeks. I am really glad I faced that fear because a year later and there is no denying what I have unlearned. I look forward to the year ahead rebuilding my internal family (belief) system. #onwardsandupwards #cptsd #therapyart #healing #fyp

Holiday Lights

TikTok post — 2025-11-29 Holiday Lights: One of my biggest triggers around the holidays are Christmas lights. Especially when laying in bed and seeing them from outside my window. Didn't understand why until I remembered laying in my bed as a kid and staring at them out my window. Not ours, but the ones on the neighbors house where I was being abused. They sure loved to decorate their house. #therapyart #cptsd #remindertomyself #fyp #holidaytriggers

Dungeons and Dragons

TikTok post — 2025-11-29 Dungeons and Dragons: It has been in the deepest parts of my soul where I hid my wounded inner child. When I was first diagnosed with CPTSD the psychiatrist I was seeing focused a lot on setting my inner child free. He was locked up in a dungeon and guarded by a Dragon. Quite a few years later and I am just starting to understand how to do that. I am also learning that in doing so I am helping us transform into someone who is no longer controlled by fear. It is not bravery or courage as much as it is inner strength to not just survive but to overcome. I do not need to defeat the dragon to set myself free, I need to become the dragon. #fyp #cptsd #therapyart #beadragon #partstherapy

Intestinal Fortitude (Literally)

TikTok post — 2025-11-30 Intestinal Fortitude (Literally): Having the guts to trust your gut is not enough, people cant handle the truth. My trauma response is in full effect when I feel the wrong energy from people. A very difficult thing to describe to people who havent been Hypervigant since age 6. Best way to describe it is I feel energy in techicolor but see in black and white. Learning to manage this is a journey in itself. #cptsd #hylervigilance #therapyart #fyp #iykyk

Who's Laughing? Letting go of the shame is only possible once you

TikTok post — 2025-11-30 Who's Laughing? Letting go of the shame is only possible once you finally start to believe it is not your fault. That belief is no different for me than having faith in God. They are both mustard seeds at best but immortal nonetheless. Grooming and coercion, manipulation and control, the evil of man known long before I ever became one. #therapyart #cptsd #healing #sasurvivor🖤 #fyp

No More Mr. Nice Guy

TikTok post — 2025-11-30 No More Mr. Nice Guy: A very common struggle for people with CPTSD is to be labeled as too sensitive. For me it has been a trigger, as I am sure it is for everyone else. Yet we all need to be accountable for reacting and listening with the intensity of our triggers. I have no answer for this, other than to keep trying. If I do I will eventually find the answer in what gets triggered. #fyp #healing #CapCut #cptsd #therapyart

Inside Out

TikTok post — 2025-11-30 Inside Out: This is not a scream or a battle cry, it is praise for the light that I found turning my heart to God. What happened to my daughter broke me, I had no way of being who I was before. There was no putting humpty dumpty back together again. Healing only comes through transformation so I created this content to remind me that the light of God, just like the love of God, and the very name of God has always been there inside. Just need to sit and breathe. #therapyart #cptsd #healing #remindertomyself #fyp

Buried Alive

I have had to do this in parts, it is horrible but just like the last one I wrote, once I recover I will feel the gratitude from my wounded inner child that I finally told some one. To read these testimonies out loud is a visceral and horribly healing experience. So here we go for take 2 on reporting to an authority figure what he did to me. 44 years later...... #fyp #therapyart #sasurvivor🖤 #healing #cptsd

Shadow Transformation

TikTok post — 2025-11-30 Shadow Transformation: Going back to the worst of my abuse helped me realize that my shadow that haunted me was transformed through my pain. As I got older and the nightmares continued I started experimenting with drugs in 6th and 7th grade. This is when my shadow was comforting in the middle of the night when waking up from a nightmare. I spent plenty of intoxicated moments just sitting in the dark over the adolesent years ahead. The darkenss became comfortable and safe, as long as I was high. #fyp #therapyart #cptsd #beadragon #CapCut

This one is written so well, simple but profound. Our willingness to

TikTok post — 2025-12-04 This one is written so well, simple but profound. Our willingness to love others drives our capacity and ability to love. That willingness dies when we do not love ourselves enough to be accountable and responsibile emotionally. The power is and has always been inside each and everyone of us. It took me until 50 years old to start loving myself but that is because I believed I was already doing by surviving. It was everyone else who was messed up and I was the victim. I blew so much smoke up my butt out of fear I was been taken advantage of and betrayed like always. Some serious smoke that is at least gone now. This one is here to help me have accountability and grace. #therapyart #remindertomyself #fyp #healing #emotionallyaccountable

We lost him 19 years ago today and although little me feared him almost as much as the Devil, Adult me made amends with the old man and he became my guiding light through my mid 20's as a single Dad. I wasted my childhood fearing him and my adolescent years hating him. All to get 10 years of learning from and leaning on him. He was many things that I admired and am honored to carry on through my life.He is always with us, and I feel his energy. It sounds like his laugh and shines bright in Cardinal and Gold.

Read Between the Lines

TikTok post — 2025-12-06 Read Between the Lines: A great thought that connects the dots well. It does require us to read between the lines to understand that the key to meeting that need is understanding the emotions. This can be quite challenging, I would rather look at energies than my emotions but it works and helps. Having EQ is a game changer and the lesson learned the hard way I can share is you can't develop EQ with unresolved trauma. #exposuretherapy #fyp #cptsd #healing #emotionalintelligence

The Real Slim Shady

TikTok post — 2025-12-08 The Real Slim Shady: Abandonment is the ultimate sin, regardless of who, what, and where. It changes reality completely with all aspects of self-image and self-esteem destroyed and shattered. The worst part is I am the only one who is able to heal that wound. Self abandonment is so automatic after all these years that it feels impossible most of the time. But, what I am learning one day at a time is the more I show up for that poor wounded little boy, the less the abuse defines me. The only way to end the identity crisis that SA creates is to stop neglecting that it happened. #therapyart #cptsd #sasurvivor🖤 #fyp #selfabandonment

They anchor themselves into the soil of this beautiful earth to both stand strong and nurture their survival. A sunny winter morning is one of the brightest sights to witness and it takes my breath away everytime. It is a big old hug from mother nature that is as real as it is warm. So a photo that combines two of my favorite things to remind me to dig my roots into solid ground and let the sunlight melt away the snow that has buried me. A simple point, but one that warms my soul like a hot cup of tea. #cptsd #healing #therapyart #transformation #connection

Hindsight

Timeless Journey

TikTok post — 2025-12-10 Timeless Journey: This about how impossible it feels like on most days. The solace and solitude that this picture brings me is palpable. Something that I can watch over and over again to torture myself through moments if isolation. The imagery is one of my favorites. I like to imagine the final frontier as my obstacle, not myself. #cptsd #therapyart #fyp #healing #lostinspace

Villafy to Justify

TikTok post — 2025-12-10 Villafy to Justify: Narcissistic tendencies of tend to follow specific patterns. Like how they character assassinate with embellishment every single time you draw the line. Another pattern is how easily they fall into their own traps. Perspective and perception is everything and inclusivity requires us to open up to other viewpoints. #fyp #therapyart #cptsd #outsideperspective #connection

Wires are Crossed

TikTok post — 2025-12-10 Wires are Crossed: Woke up this morning a bit unhinged. A rage in my belly and a tightness in my chest from the dream sequence I endured.

I rise again to face the same dragons every morning. #cptsd #therapyart #awakendbyfear #cycleofrage #CapCut

It is getting easier to manage my triggered state, but I am now starting to accept that the tougher the battle, the better.

The Frightners

Crayola Tears

TikTok post — 2025-12-12 Crayola Tears: I was fascinated with melting crayons when I was as a kid. It used to entertain the heck out of me making my own hybrids.

Often shamed and ridiculed and even hated for being different, especially when I tried to fit in. #fyp #therapyart #cptsd #complextrauma #healing

Faultlines and Flatlines

TikTok post — 2025-12-12 Faultlines and Flatlines: If knowledge helps, then wisdom transforms, but control is not part of the equation with CPTSD. Letting go is, which is nearly impossible when spiraling into a panick attack. The science of it all, in the moments I cant breath, helps me focus on something that helps me to remember to just let go. Dont try to control it or stop the anxiety, both invalidate the reality of what you feel. Sit and feel it, until you recognize it and until then repeat after me: "CPTSD is a physical condition that is not eraseable or deniable." #cptsd #fyp #safespace #cptsdawareness #healing

Somatic Mysteries

TikTok post — 2025-12-13 Somatic Mysteries: The memory our bodies store in cells is a crazy mystery that we are all just now understanding. What I know is these somatic memories trigger my nervous system and emotional flashbacks. This then triggers actual memories in my minds. It can be a smell, a sound, or any of the other senses that trigger the somatic memory. Not sure if therapy will change the complex trauma stored in my body but it will change the way I react to it, already has. #fyp #cptsd #therapyart #healing #somatichealing

I need to hang in there to understand my journey over these last 14 months of trauma therapy and meds. It was really empty and lonely at first, but then I felt safe enough to make it through to processing. Integration should be just beyond the horizon but for now I will just breathe under heaven's sky. #trauma #healing #healing #TikTokCreatorSearchInsightsIncentive #fyp

It was as if God was singing it to me themself. Like a Heavenly Father and Mother letting me know they love me while I am away from them in this free will nightmare of an earthly life. To capture this moment of warmth and divine energy I put the song to the most beautiful creation I have witnessed in person.

The reality of one versus the other though was enough to push me onto my own spiritual path. I have looked at almost every religion and spiritual belief system.

Belly of the Beast

TikTok post — 2025-12-26 Belly of the Beast: I am to the point in my healing journey from SA as a kid that I have to authentically face myself with the shame adult me carries. It is not easy to understand, but simple to say, kids who are abused have no idea the shame they will carry until they grow up and somewhat figure themselves out se&ually. Being a he¥er0se&ual male who was groomed and molested by a man for 2 years creates the shame I am looking at now. It is almost a hom0ph0bic rage until I realize that it is my fear and avoidance of feeling ashamed that creates the rage. What happened to me was not my fault and does not define me, especially my se&ual identity. Now, those are words that are easy to say but difficult to believe until you are much older. At 50, I know that to be true but still struggle to refrain from judging myself like I was some sort of Catholic priest or something. Truth defeats the homophobia but what stops the judgement stemming from my religious trauma being raised Mormon? Transparency and accountablity with love and compassion. Accepting the fact that I was just a kid and biology is biology. What happened to me does not define me at all, just means I knew what felt good physically long before I knew what felt good spiritually and emotionally for me. As I trigger writing this I will step through that portal because someone else may be struggling. I went through very difficult, embarrassing and shame triggering experiences all the way through my divorce and well into my current marriage of 22 years, until I finally found my identity. It is a nightmare of a journey, especially the parts you walk alone. Whatever your identity is, love yourself. You wont be happy or able to overcome the shame addiction until you do. #therapyart #CapCut #healing #cptsd #sasurvivor🖤

I make this post loud and proud for anyone and everyone who is suffering with this as well. There are probably still more that are living undiagnosed that are not.

I am accepting enough to try and it is working so I am more of a believer over time.

Running Down a Dream

I am often spending my mornings trying to reset a triggered nervous system while also trying to piece together the nightmare(s) that I had like some early childhood memory. Even though I barely remember the dreams, I am triggered just the same so it doesn't work. It is like amnesia and it really messes with me. I am learning how to dream with my eyes wide open through these videos as this is the only way for me to control and remember them. The quote is a subliminal message aimed at my fear like a fire extinguisher for added protection. #deepquotes #hardhitting #cptsd #therapyart #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Follow the Light

TikTok post — 2025-12-29 Follow the Light: About this time 4 years ago, my family and I were all sick with Covid and I messed up my back. Worse than that, we were all emotionally fried from the trauma and the therapy and the legal battles let alone the fear that plagued 2021 for us. We also had hellatious rain and wind storms, then a part of a tree came crashing down on our roof and broke our heater exhaust pipe. The storms turned to snow and we spent the next week in our living room by the fireplace and had a few space heaters going until we lost power from the storms. Before you know it, trees were coming down everywhere up here and people lost their homes and cars. So a nightmare for 10 days while recovering from Covid and storm damage, which is how I hurt my back. A long story to remember why after 44 years I finally broke and what it took to break through the wall. A burning bush would have been less painful but either way I heard the call and saw the light. I have slowly been following it ever since and finishing the job of tearing down the walls inside protecting my wounded inner child. I end this year with a new place for him to live. A place where he can just be a kid and when he remembers I can comfort and heal him, through the grace of God. #healingjourney #selfdiscovery #cptsd #fyp #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

My war is with my abusers, not the countless heartless people who stepped on me to get where they are going.

Ragebaiting

TikTok post — 2025-12-30 Ragebaiting: It is only a thing when someone holds you accountable for losing your temper with them but is not responsible for provoking you. Now, this is a lot different than getting triggered and losing your shit in an unprovoked manner or abuse because there is no provoking that rage. But the difference between the two is really hard to see with the ones we love the most. The funny thing is you can very easily overcome rage baiting by not engaging. You can also overcome being a monster when you are triggered through awareness and healing. So either way, all it takes is accountability, boundaries, and grace and Ragebaiting is no longer a thing. #cptsd #awareness #motivation #healing #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Another Perspective

TikTok post — 2025-12-30 Another Perspective: Disclaimer: This is written from me to me, it is not a universal message. It is a reminder to me as it has been more than 40 years with hate in my heart and I am leaving it in 2025. There is an awesome TED talk out there callled Redefining Love: Boundaries, Accountability and Gracre that provides one of the best POV's yet. This awesome woman giving the talk shares a belief that she developed in healing that nothing about failing relationships are one sided. Most people that are called narcissistic are just not being accountable. Most of them can easily change through humility and grace. The challenge is though, that accountability has to be returned to mend the relationship. Boundaries crossed leads to incredibly abusive behavior in both men and women. To hate them, to label them, is to dehumanize them and never heals the pain. Accountability is avoided more and more these days, we would rather blame and clap back instead of be compassionate to someone we are fighting with. To love me requires the same as what is required of me: Boundaries, Accountability and Grace. Hate me if you want, shame and blame me till your blue in the face. I will simply walk away and let you slam me all you want. It will not erase your accountability or my grace. Hate is NEVER justisifed or healthy, but it is as real as any other secondary emotion. What lies underneath is fear and shame and no amount of hate will heal those wounds. So as a SA survivor and someone who has a history of toxic relationships, abuse requires healing which requires growth. As hard as it is and despite the many years it takes to heal, it won't happen until we can let go of the secondary emotions and process the fear and shame underneath. I say to you with all the love that I have, lets call a Spade a Spade without hating them because we are all capable of such evil. It will make our world a better place, instead of the constant battle of polarity that we are stuck in. #healingjourney #cptsd #selfdiscovery #motivation #hardhitting

Quantam Leap

TikTok post — 2026-01-01 Quantam Leap: It has been a series of storms over the last few years that finally broke me open. I can reflect and see the chess pieces moving and how the rocks were slowly being removed from the cave-ins long before the storms. Using my pattern recognition ability when reflecting, it is easy to see the love of God working to help ME dig myself out. Despite the pain and suffering, I am able to understand the cost of free agency. Maybe it is because of the trauma or the fact that it is the only way I maintain hope. But I get it. It is a fundamental law of the universe and how we are limitless and eternal. The cost sucks when you go through horrible repeated abuse, but there is a love that exists that is helping me to turn that suffering into love through my free agency. I choose to heal and love. To serve and to protect and help others by sharing my story. I have boundaries, accountability, and grace to guide my way so I dont really need to be blinded by the light to see anymore. #AICreate #HealingJourney #selfdiscovery #cptsd #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Reverb with Distortion

TikTok post — 2026-01-02 Reverb with Distortion: Complex PTSD is painful, especially when triggered into a full blown panic attack. I was doing ok until the shortness of breath and that lasted all of 20 seconds before my entire body panicked. It took me a good 10 minutes to catch my breath, and as I did, I started to ground myself. I hustled out of there and to my car, almost didn't make it, but the tears just started falling once I was safe in the car. The reverb and distortion sitting here 6 hours later is no joke. It feels alot like static electricity from the inside out. Focusing to type is so difficult and I am so tired, how the hell did I survive this hell for this long? Emotionally I am handling the inner critic well but not the hopelessness and fear of why I triggered that bad. On the upside, there was NO collateral damage and my test results are good.

I have spent years of my life stuck in that trauma response with pretty much every woman I have ever loved. Funny thing is I used to think I was just a hopeless romantic and very passionate. That was definitely a web of lies hiding my obsessive compulsion to be the perfect husband and boyfriend in past relationships. I do have a romantic side and I love now with an awareness and intention instead of with fear and protection. That doesn't mean that true love wont save me, it just has to say that true love needs to be with Self. Without that I am incapable of true love for anyone or anything else. #growthmindset #selfimprovement #spiritualawakening #mindfullness #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Worlds Apart

TikTok post — 2026-01-03 Worlds Apart: I thought I was heading into the Abyss but changed direction and starting heading into the son. I didn't think she would stay or that we would make it, I was all alone anyways as the attachment wound was over. I still don't know on most days if we are going to make it. There is a lot more awakening going on and she may be turning away from the Abyss. Hopefully she is heading my way. #spiritualawakening #cptsd #therapyart #selfdiscovery #fyp

New Found Glory

TikTok post — 2026-01-03 New Found Glory: Despite the trend of justifying hate through protecting your peace, I am going to throw some content in the mix that will help me when I need to defend and protect. Instead if living in this mode, I reserve it for when I need it. I have never really been one to say much, I prefer action over words and silence over choas. We all need reminders and encouragement of our strength when someone is trying to knock us down so this is one for me. It includes a spiritual context to also remind me to stay true to myself in the process: accountability, boundaries, and grace. Maybe this is why people don't like my boundaries. #fyp #therapyart #cptsd #spiritualawakening #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Contents Under Pressue

TikTok post — 2026-01-03 Contents Under Pressue: There are parts of me that are definitely darker and scarier than the others. Adolescent, teenage, young adult me was hell on wheels. Not fearless, more like he had a death wish. He also had a way of facing fear in the face and laughing that I have forgotten. How to stay human yet able to face the fear that is trapped in my body will be a transformation much like this content. The dragon will burn and the wizard will use our superpowers to no end. These parts of me come out when provoked, which is whenever I feel overpowered, outsmarted, manipulated and attacked. I am getting better at quietly becoming who I need to be without burning down the whole village. But, this is my warning content to myself that I need to be the master of my parts or I will let us down and our world is going to burn. #growthmindset #healingjourney #therapyart #cptsd #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Gravitational Pull

TikTok post — 2026-01-04 Gravitational Pull: No more repeated relationships, the Veil has been breached finally. Cool thing is there might be some eventual alignment with our planetary systems in the near future. Star alignment is clear for me, my journey continues into the depths of the three phases. I have 6 new ones to complete in parallel through IFS so I know my trajectory for now. Hers is shifting quickly and I am hopeful she is at least turned towards light, she could have at least one eye open too. It is nearly impossible and definitely improbable for middle aged adults to accept and heal from complext childhood trauma. Especially if it is more manipulation and emotional abuse by both parents. Even the more serious forms of abuse are tough but no one can handle the guilt of shaming your parents when it was "not that bad" or they were just "struggling single parents. At least not until we know we have unresolved trauma. Does that mean that we are still meant for each other? Or did we just trauma bond without even knowing it and created a space for us to fight for protection and safety the last 22 1/2 years. Time will tell, I know how I feel and why now, so I await with an open heart. Awareness and healing work with my anxious attachment style changed the game for me. Right now, I can only pray she sees the wound underneath her avoidance attachment style. Instead, though, I just pray for her peace and healing no matter what that means. I see her wounded little abandoned self as clearly as I see my own, and my heart breaks for her and me both. #innerchildhealing #healingjourney #coregulate #cptsd #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

That is how intense it feels once I am laser focused on something someone said that hurt my feelings. I can get so heated that I will ignite and burn anything or anyone within a 50 yard radius. The abuse that gets triggered is not easy to explain but for anyone who knows, it is better to just leave us alone. There are quite a few of these triggers, I made a list and have been working on them one by one. Digging all the way down to the root core wound whenever possible. Tonight I chose to sit and make this video instead of focusing in on the situation that triggers me. Quiet, lonely and peaceful just like I need it. #selfawareness #AICreate #healingjourney #cptsd #fyp

This is a video for me in the loenly times, they are far and few between now as I really like being alone but when I feel emotionally detached, disconnected or indifferent with the outside world I feel a whole new level of lonely. No need though, we are never alone really. There is so much more beyond us and our microscopic view of life as we know it, let alone the next one. So I will reach out and connect to something way bigger than me when I am lost and alone.

She has a strong and very bright faith that is learned through struggle and pain. She is insanely positive yet has a depth to her perception that only trauma based superpowers could create.

What's Under the Hood? A look inside my world from my point of view.

TikTok post — 2026-01-06 What's Under the Hood? A look inside my world from my point of view. I remember when this song came out, I wasn't that old but wise beyond my years because I loved this song, video and artist. Still do, he has a very unique way of senquencing these simple on their own but complex when connected together artistic ideas that represented the lack of authenticity in society. At least, that is how I interpret him as an artist. Anyways, I added the delay effect intentionally as it aligns with the music in a nails on the chalkboard kind of way. That is my pov, slightly delayed and distroted but full of syncronicity and more important, harmonies. #TikTokCreatorSearchInsightsIncentive #AICreate #fyp #petergabriel #healingjourney

For most of my adolescent years I blamed her for not seeing me or even having a second thought about what this Mom told her I was doing to her son. The fact that she just believed her and sent me to my room was a devastating blow to my safety. I never spoke up so how would she know, I was just a troubled kid who didnt know any better I guess. I can't get closer to God or find my peace with anger and blame in my heart against my Mother or his. Hoping that sharing it out loud will be the healing I need to talk to her finally. #healingjourney #fyp #TikTokCreatorSearchInsightsIncentive #innerchildhealing #sasurvivor🖤

Truth Be Told

TikTok post — 2026-01-08 Truth Be Told: A good little manual to help put a voice to things I have suffered with as silently as I could my whole life. Or at least as far back as I can remember. This is not an excuse or a way to avoid being accountable. Instead it is exactly that. Being accountable. This is a condition I live with because I was abused as a kid from age 6 to 8 and then nothing more was ever said or done about it. Textbook connection of A to B. I struggled to accept it for a while but I embrace it now. It is a voice for my suffering and a way to finally overcome it once and for all. Why this time you ask? Simple, this time I dont need it to go away, I just need to manage my triggered state and I am getting g really good at that processing part. Only when I have to still but that is the next rung on the ladder. Have a process to process. #fyp #cptsd #selfgrowth #mindfullness #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Use Your Illusion

TikTok post — 2026-01-08 Use Your Illusion: My illusion in this life has been what keeps leading me to trauma bonding instead of healthy relationships. This painting and song provides a great metaphor for my illusion. I have fatansized love, bombed the hell out of it because it is a psychedelic drug that takes away my pain. I love intimately to numb and aleeve my pain, but the only way it works is it has to be real and connecting, as crazy as that sounds. But makes sense when I consider I have been in a monogamous marriage for almost 24 years. Shadow work is done when you are in your darker feelings. It isnt easy learning to process those feelings instead of react to them but it helps so much. I really dont know today what tomorrow brings, I just know that I cant keep chasing the dragon. #fyp #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive #AICreate #traumabonding #lovebombing💔

Autistic Sarcasm

TikTok post — 2026-01-09 Autistic Sarcasm: I have a simple but very difficult message to share with myself in this content. Fantasy, fairy tales, and hopeful stories, songs and images trigger me. These photos are time lapsed over the course of a year, showing a powerful mathematical rhythm to creation. It is beautiful and more than likely fake as hell, which seems like such a logical thought as much as it is cynical. It is a rather realistic pov with all the AI, but this is deeper for me than that. I used AI to modify these images to help convey, through sarcasm, how trigerring they are to me. Scene 1 is how creation failed me, Scene 2 is how fake joyful people are, and Scene 3 is the curtain being pulled back to show the man pulling levers and pushing buttons. None of these triggered POV's are true but they are just as real so hopefully this content helps me heal. #AICreate #therapyart #cptsd #healingjourney #fyp

Imaginos Rabbit Hole

TikTok post — 2026-01-09 Imaginos Rabbit Hole: So this song is a massive rabbit hole into the artistic mind behind the Blue Oyster Cult. Important fact, I had no clue this rabbit Hole existed when I put the video together. I didn't really listen to the lyrics, but as the AI videos were done, it just flowed and felt aligned to me. Awareness of the lyrics and the fiction behind them is a gift from somewhere. To catalog the gift, Google AI summarizes the meaning of these lyrics as depicting a moment of existential and supernatural realization. The narrator embraces a cold, eternal heritage beyond normal human experience. 🤯 My character is that narrator cat, he is learning that keeping his heart in love makes him limitless and eternal. The penguin sees this return on the cat's investment and believes in love again as well. Not the intimate couple love, this about the energy created through love of self. #fyp #AICreate #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive #cptsd #selflovejourney

For me, I have a knack, or more like a CPTSD superpower, to see in syncronicity. Connectedness is an experience when we feel it, even when admiring the connections outside of ourselves. For example, my content creates connections far beyond anything I can imagine or facilitate because it is based on synchronicity. A song, a visual, and a caption all connected to create a message that is different for each person who views my content. Quantam evidence without the need to see inside the realm. An awesome reminder that we are alive and that in itself gives hope because everything is possible. #quantamentanglement #synchronicity #fyp #healingjourney💜 #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Through new and old connections you help others transform as well. So yeah, be yourself and to hell with what anyone thinks about it. #fyp #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive #goodvibes #selflovejourney #healingjourney💜

TikTok post — 2026-01-16 Lightning Bugs: If I could set the world on fire to change the weather, I wouldn't hesitate. The storm clouds have been around for a very long time, and it is not always easy to see through the dark. I hear God in this song, so the visual is another cool metaphor for how he finally gets me to see the light. It's scary and painful, but that seems to be my love language, so it makes sense. #fyp #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive #AICreate #selflovejourney #healingjourney💜

Crocodile Smile

TikTok post — 2026-01-16 Crocodile Smile: The paradigm shift internally has come by one peaceful moment at a time. Learning to sit still and just feel has been so pivotal to my healing. I am getting to the point now that when that panic or anxiety hits me in my chest I position myself and breath instead of reach for the meds. I woke up this morning way too early with way to much flying around in my head and its ok. So yeah, finally feeling like I can just sit back and relax, panic then regulate, and go back to relaxing. That defintely makes me smile, just like this meme did. #AICreate #healingjourney💜 #fyp #positiveenergy #tiktokcreatorsearchinsightsincentive

Learning to Love

TikTok post — 2026-01-16 Learning to Love: This song is sung by my future self to my current self. My other parts are listening too though, this has such a soothing feel to it that we all need. This is just a loving reminder to just keep going and enjoy the hell out of the view along the way. It isn't easy, healing never will be no matter how different it is for all of us. But it is necessary to find the love we all really crave underneath it all. Love is found through suffering and then self, both humbly kneel me before God and in return they help me see the light. #AICreate #fyp #positiveenergy #healingjourney💜 #learningtolove

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

TikTok post — 2026-01-17 Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: There are many reasons for people to exclude others. Many different ways that our society separates the winners from the losers and many ways the losers get reminded of the defeat. It is just how this world works and the test we all need to take. Will we choose to win this life or the next? Sometimes, when you lose, you win but it takes a long time to turn. In the meantime, losing is lonely as hell, I see a lot of blessed and happy hateful winners out there. Might as well be floating away on some other rock until this life is over. #AICreate #fyp #cptsd #loneliness #shadowwork

Edge Effect

TikTok post — 2026-01-17 Edge Effect: Phases are often how the cptsd healing journey is defined. Three of them, grounding, processing, and integration. They are not linear, and they definitely overlap. I'm not sure if any of them have an end. I do know that through them, I have learned a very important lesson that this content shares. There is real power, strength, and wisdom that develops through these phases and the self-love they generate. For dis guy, that self-love is not possible without my higher power. My fire, my flame is based on my faith in a loving God and that there is more to our existence than this life. That helps me believe and see through the scorched remnants of my life like the Edge effect on Owls. #AICreate #fyp #cptsd #healingjourney💜 #selflovejourney

Drowning Pool

TikTok post — 2026-01-17 Drowning Pool: The awakening process with cptsd was horribly painful and difficult for me. I had to go through more betrayal and abandonment to finally face what happened to me. The most difficult moments were when I cried out for help and was left to drown on my own. Breaking in these moments, drowning in my own past, helped me finally scream and cry and release all this stored up betrayal and abandonment. They left me to drown, but in that struggle, I learned how to swim. #AICreate #healingjourney💜 #cptsd #fyp #shadowwork

Communication is Me

TikTok post — 2026-01-18 Communication is Me: There are many ways to communicate with other living creatures and things. We put out energy into this universe through communication, intention, and emotion, all vibrating at the frequency of our nervous system. Listening, on the other hand, is how we develop our Consciousness, actually we use all of our senses but listening is the most difficult. I am learning to listen to my Self and in turn communicate more clearly and effectively, which in turn is growing my Consciousness. Who would have thought an app could do that? All I needed was the connections to my Consciousness through communication. #AICreate #therapyart #healingjourney🖤 #fyp #cptsd

Rocky Roads

I was so buried in shame and guillt that it was suffocating my power. But now, after all this time grounding and processing, I feel my power finally, and it is as warm and as loving as it is safe and protecting. It has been a rocky road, and there are plenty of rocks ahead, but I know I can both endure and overcome them now. #AICreate #fyp #cptsd ##healingjourney #sasurvivor🖤

Hello Darkeness My Old Friend

TikTok post — 2026-01-19 Hello Darkeness My Old Friend: Embracing my darkness has been just as important to my healing as anything else. This content uses my darkness as a lens to look at the three phases of healing. The first is grounding, where I learned to feel safe despite living in a nightmare. The second is processing which helped me see the forrest from the trees despite being in a haunted castle secluded from civilization. The third is integration, the last phase where my unhealthy trauma response slowly dies. #AICreate #fyp #healingjourney #cptsd #sasurvivor🖤

Use Your Delusion

TikTok post — 2026-01-20 Use Your Delusion: Terms like black and white thinking, projecting, and seeing through a shame lens are common ways to describe the effect CPTSD has on my perception. It really does feel like the Twilight Zone most of the time. Like I am always on the outside looking in or more accurately vibrating at a different frequency. I think the best I have done is harmonize with other frequencies because I vibrate uniquely to protect myself. I change my vibration constantly, like an AM radio that never seems to lock in on a station. The years before this one I was a supernova in my own universe because of the self sabotage this perception leads to. Then once reality crumbles I fall into a land of make believe thinking I am fighting the forces of darkness instead my own shame. I can at least recognize it for what it is. #AICreate #cptsd #healingjourney💜 #fyp #therapyart

It is a steep uphill grade that will test and improve your limits, but it is dark and scary. There is more light than shadow the further I climb and I get stronger every day. It is slow, painful and uncomfortable but it works. Face the trauma, ground and process to regulate. Using the techniques, tools and therapies are healing my nervous system. I will keep climbing and eventually I will get up and over these mountains, or die trying. #trusttheprocess #stayfocused #selfgrowth #cptsd #fyp

It is cosmic, celestial, heavenly, and every other word I can come up with that solves this mystery once and for all. Meaning, we all want the meaning, the point, th why.

That is legacy and his was full of love as everyone proved that was there. Pretty powerful stuff, grief is heavy and it hurts but that tells you everything about this one man. So this one is for him and all the people we have lost, I hope they are loving the view. #AICreate #griefandloss #mentorship #legacy #fyp

The Climb

Just like the Ted Lasso quote, "all that time no one was a least bit curious." I have climbed out of some incredibly deep and dark hell holes. I have overcome abuse in all forms, through all phases of my life. The worst thing anyone can do is underestimate me. I was hardened like a piece of coal by the hatred and worst in others. I turned that suffering into gifts that are not very common or understood. My brain and nervous system have been a hindrance until now only because I did not understand how they function because of the trauma. Now I do and I can use them to help. #AICreate #fyp #cptsd #healingjourney #fightthegoodgfight

It's been a bad day, we all have them, nightmares were rough,(actually vividly remeber them) and after a very long week of little sleep I got very little once again. But like this animation, I am safe as my monsters flare up because I am not them. I observe and report, serve and protect. This is accountable, I sat and processed for a few hours and now its time to get back to the present. #fightthegoodgfight #healingjourney #cptsd #fyp #therapyart

The Art of War

TikTok post — 2026-01-27 The Art of War: Two types of childhoods, they are blended for most, and a select few have more or all of either side. That balance and imbalance is the human experience in our society. There are levels of complex trauma that are nowhere near as obvious as others, and those do more damage because the narcissistic defenses will never be seen as such. The protection spell these middle of the road people cast is something they are blind to. For most of my life, I thought I had to fight the external, but now I realize I am at war with my reaction to my external. I am winning this war. My fight is not a trigger point that people can use against me anymore. #AICreate #therapyart #fyp #cptsd #HealingJourney

High Life

TikTok post — 2026-01-28 High Life: This is it, the song, my one and only. We have been together for a long time now, starting in Junior High so since 1987. That was the year I started smoking cigarettes and drinking as well as doing drugs. It helped with the nightmares, the self abuse and the flashbacks. The music got real and I fell in love with heavy metal. Especially Ozzy, he was a poet really. Suicide solution saved me one night when I almost intentionally drove myself into incoming traffic. Then I met this song and the Light and the dark in me came alive at the same time. I am a madman and this content shares why. I dont care how much I suffer, love is the way. I choose love, which means I accept duality and perception and the limitless possibilities. I see a lot of people focused on the external, it is the norm in our society. I choose to be a madman, I was shown what the absence of love leads to at a very young age. That hurt so bad I dont want myself or anyone else to go through that again. The imagery in this one in intense and provoking, even triggering, to connect with the intensity of madness I carry. I go through this life like a blind person reading brail because of this naive and childhood belief in love. Or at least that is the common perception of my madness. #fyp #cptsd #HealingJourney #sasurvivor🖤 #madness

Sleeping Pills

TikTok post — 2026-01-29 Sleeping Pills: This was my day yesterday after therapy, I crashed hard in the early evening and actually took a nap. I don't nap, well I can't physically, but it is not without trying or wanting. When I try to sleep during the day, it triggers a fear in my body that is like that sudden sensation of falling we can all get as we are drifting off to sleep. I get this panic in my chest just like when I try to meditate. The moment I physically start to relax, it triggers a fear reaponse that I can not control or deny. All this said, my journey is leading me to a place that feels a lot like the video at the end. I am walking a tight rope, a bridge over troubled waters, and I am moving forward. But one wrong step, and I will fall to my doom. This is trauma therapy, the exhaustion and fear is beyond my control at times, but it continues to diminish with each step. #AICreate #traumatherapy #cptsd #fyp #HealingJourney

Nature vs Nurture (Literally)

TikTok post — 2026-02-01 Nature vs Nurture (Literally): The abandonment wound has been the source of a lot of my content. It is way worse than I can handle on most days and something I never understood until now. It is a wound only I can heal in a way that is not foreign to me. I was a single dad with sole custody 25 years ago, and within those couple years, I developed a pretty effective nurturing nature when I needed to. Having a daughter and my other son both helped develop that nurturing abilty even more. If I can learn to nurture myself like one of my own children, I can heal this wound. It takes grace, and I know where to turn for that. #AICreate #fyp #cptsd #abandonment #healingjourney🖤

Total Recall

TikTok post — 2026-02-01 Total Recall: Remembering has been a big struggle in my complex healing journey. Partially because of all the years that have gone by and mostly because I won't let myself remember. I have prayed before my sessions for 15 months now asking to help me remember, safely. The panic attacks these memories created are past and now it is mainly my blood pressure that is impacted. I spent almost 30 minutes in exposure therapy for my last session. I prayed for that hell and it hurt like you know what but that was healing. I described the fear waves like the old cartoons with a white stripe down their backs or souls escaping their bodies. It is crazy how real it still is physically, which means it's working. I am working my way towards total recall. #AICreate #exposuretherapy #sasurvivor🖤   #healingjourney🖤 #fyp

Workhorse

TikTok post — 2026-02-01 Workhorse: This one is simple to remain powerful. It carries a lesson that is hard for me to learn well enough to change. I have carried my world on my back since I was 6. It is one of the best and worst ways I have stayed safe. The older I got, the bigger my world became, the more weight I carried. I am good and strong and faithful, I am steadfast and resilent, I will carry my weight and theirs. In 2021 they said I had 6 compression fractures in my back and no explanation as to why. Then they realize I have osteoporosis at the age of 46 but only really in my back. My boss and mentor, who passed away last week, always called me a workhorse. Especially once I got hurt and was sidelined. It has been a crazy ride since but I think all I have done is slow down and lighten the load from my childhood. There is no way in hell I cant continue, my whole world depends on it. My whole world is my family so even broken I will keep carrying this load forward for them. #AICreate #fyp #healingjourney #cptsd #provider

Losing My Religion

TikTok post — 2026-02-01 Losing My Religion: I don't often post about my religious trauma. It is so pale in comparison that it often goes unmentioned. I see it in all 4 of my siblings, though too. Yes, we are the mormon average family of 5 kids. Two hard-working, dedicated parents and a whole lifetime of shame shoved into a childhood. Couple it with the SA, and yeah, that is one hell of a starting deck spiritually. I have journeyed a lot spiritually in my life. Stopped going to my parents' church at 12, they have no choice because I had no regard for my life at that point, and they would have had to kill me to make me go. But, with all that, I grew up with a toxic environment that really chose love. There was just a very distorted view of it, God still used that to speak to me. Love is what it has always been and always will be. I eventually found my way to love. Christ and Budda and even Bob Marley and Ozzy helped get me there. God's word is love, and it is everywhere, and I am grateful for my independent yet collective belief system focused on love. #AICreate #fyp #cptsd #healingjourney #religioustrauma

Wasted Years

TikTok post — 2026-02-01 Wasted Years: This one is for my gen X fam, both music and visuals. The mood or emotions I instantly have to face with this one is that generic sadness that is always there.

I am definitely sitting in the passenger seat on this one. #AICreate #sadness #fyp #cptsd #healingjourney

Justice League

TikTok post — 2026-02-02 Justice League: I'm going to let some of the darkness out on this one. I imagine my abuser and his mother and every other person that abuses children rotting away in this swamp infested house. It doesn't make me feel better. It makes me feel lighter because I imagine it to let go. It makes it more absurd,which eventually makes it less palpable. But for now, I can see my heart beating outside of my chest. #fyp #sasurvivor🖤 #healingjourney #cptsd #therapyart

Ironic Innuendo

TikTok post — 2026-02-02 Ironic Innuendo: The dark side to my nightmares, the worst part to talk about, is what triggers me the most. The abandonment wound often gets the title, but that is because it is easier out of the two to talk about. Sex and arousal are haunting and painful for me. They trigger memories and emotions and physical fear with pain and sensation. It really is a living nightmare. Worse that any of the ones I made up in my dreams. I am a man and that is all that I am and that triggers me every time. This wound is raw and newly opened, at least I can say it without shame. #therapyart #cptsd #healingjourney #sasurvivor🖤 #fyp

Vibration Ideation

TikTok post — 2026-02-02 Vibration Ideation: Music is a timeless gift that transcends our sense of understanding. Not the notes and the chords, the frequency or the amplitude. The emotional response it creates is the gift we truly cherish. Music is sacred, it is free, it is living and breathing in you and me. It guides and calms, so breathe with me and find your space. #AICreate #fyp #musicishealing #cptsd #therapyart

The Fox and the Sound

TikTok post — 2026-02-02 The Fox and the Sound: There are two bands that I listen to when I am severely sad and/or depressed. My connection to their sound is so powerful that hearing their music triggers emotional flashbacks. There are other artists and songs but Pink Floyd and Journey are sadness and depression for me incarnate. Stop, switch, reverse that if you want me to be relatively speaking. This art by Gus Vink with the filters and effects, just completely aligns and triggers an emotional flashback. That makes this content helpful when I am already in one though. The music and art makes me just settle in and process. #therapyart #cptsd #fyp #musicishealing #healingjourney

Birthright

TikTok post — 2026-02-04 Birthright: A human falicy as old as time, a line that is twice the lie. Humans have long felt birthrights regardless of domain (earthly and heavenly). It is just as easy for me to say my birthright is to sit besides God's throne or my own. When in all honesty, the only birthright that we have is free agency. I dont create this content to stand up and claim my birthright. No this is a lesson given through my own brand of sarcasm. I choose to be a conduit and connect to love, just like my father before me and his father before him. #AICreate #fyp #healingjourney #cptsd #loveisgod

Smoke Signals

TikTok post — 2026-02-04 Smoke Signals: If I am being honest, I have been trauma bonding in every romantic relationship I have ever had. Been married twice and a string of committed relationships before then that were just one collosal failure after another. My wife and I have 23 years together this summer and I think the secret to our success is the trauma bond wont let us leave. I think I was blessed to find someone who would understand my wounds because theirs were just as deep. We are both learning as we heal ourselves who we are and who we've been. Anyone who falls in love with a projection instead of a person should connect well with this one. Especially the end. #AICreate #therapyart #fyp #healingjourney #cptsd

Swamp Thing

Creature from the Black Lagoon and the Neverending Story should be obvious to my Gen X friends out there. They hit you quick and the sadness just cranks up to 1000.

I feel a lot better these days but the moments that triggered me just in the last year alone are still very vivid. This content captures that pain so well that it is exposure therapy for me. The lesson to remeber? Avoidance is a form of emotional abuse and neglect.

Theater of Pain

TikTok post — 2026-02-04 Theater of Pain: This is an instant favorite for me, because it makes me laugh and cry. This teenage wasteland of mine grew into a vast world of its own that now at 51 I have finally make it out of. It is a sarcastic way to say I am out to my own prison so I paired it with a song that always made me feel alive. I know three very important things now. 1. love 2. love 3. love and that is all I got because it is all I need. To any part or version of myself future self reading this, all we had to do was tell our story and let go of the shame. Nothing about the abuse or the abandonment was your fault. #AICreate #healingjourney #therapyart #sasurvivor🖤 #fyp

It helps me realize that I have a light in me too, no matter how many people don't like me. No matter how many times I am excluded or ignored. That light is still there and no matter if I am a tree falling in the forrest with no one around, it shines brighter than ever. #CapCut #lightinthedarkness #fyp #therapyart #healingjourney

Oceans Apart

TikTok post — 2026-02-08 Oceans Apart: Spirituality is looking externally and/or interally to connect with the higher power that created us. Religion organizes ways to do that ritually, which is really good and really bad at the same time. Just depends on how you are treated, especially if you are a kid. Some need both to find their way, some do not. They both help us to focus on longing, connection, and the promise of reunion despite being physically separated by distance. #healingmusic #motivation #creatorsearchinsights #fyp #musictherapy

TikTok post — 2026-02-08 How Does it Feel? I dont think an image could so immediately define CPTSD like this one. The healing and the awakening is slow but it is working.

Flying down Euclid or Mountain avenue I still dont know how I didn't get hit or crash. Then I had a kid, and all I have felt ever since was fear. Crazy how life and trauma responses change over time. #therapyart #cptsd #healingmusic #fyp #healingjourney

Balancing Act

TikTok post — 2026-02-09 Balancing Act: Well the river runs real deep on this one so not sure how well it will pour out. Intimacy is impossible with unmanaged cptsd, and it is impossible after the SA I went through as a kid. I am a man and growing into one was a battle of the impossible. So a song that some may hear so innocently, reminds me of some of the worst experiences in my life. Yet, that is not the whole story so there remains a real glow through all the shame and abuse. This content makes me think about the worst and the best of the adult times in my life that started at the ripe old age of 6. But when I look at any of my three kids let alone the woman I have been married to for 20 plus, I am able to accept the good with the bad. I may not know what the hell I am doing but I am doing it anyways, by the grace of god. #fyp #wellness #mentalhealth #cptsd #sasurvivor🖤

I was part of the team at JPL that designed the CCD cameras. That was some of the most fun and stress I have ever had on the job. So to use a photo is special just like this connection is. A life through the lens of abuse is metaphorically what this one is all about. Ozzy does a geeat job lyrically to drive the point home. Like every other child abuse victim I will eventually develop my true belief system and leave the abandonment behind. #sasurvivor🖤 #cptsd #fyp #creativesearchinsights #healingmusic

Man in The Iron Mask

TikTok post — 2026-02-10 Man in The Iron Mask: Masking my emotions is a skill that I have mastered like a mad scientist. I can create a complete false narrative in my mind to evoke the perfect masking emotions as I believe it. It is not about hiding my emotions from anyone else as much as it is about hiding them from myself. I have sat with the emotions created by the abuse and abandonment for way too long. They are more than capable of pulling me under so most days this mad scientist is keeping my head above water. As I try to heal and change my beliefs and behaviors I can't help but connect to the desire to keep this part of me alive in case I need it. So this content is my reminder to let my masking abilities die already. They only hurt me and everyone else anyways. #cptsd #sasurvivor🖤 #healingjourney #fyp #creativesearchinsights

Now it was shaky at best and still is but I know now that the arrogance and ego are the red flags I am looking for. The moment I started not to worry about what others knew or perceived my arrogance was abandoned.

Level Up

TikTok post — 2026-02-11 Level Up: This one has sat in my drafts for a minute. I couldn't find the right connection with the music. Then I tried this one from my favorites and man it resonated like a church bell, made my head ring. Absolutely love this image and hate lying but, I am no different than everyone else and mess up. Remaining in lies is the line and the new level I am trying to get to is to stop lying to myself. I hate admitting it but I am the worst at self gaslighting. It is how I stay safe so the trick to leveling up is to no longer be the thought. Instead, now I am the thinker and choose to not bs a bs'er to quote Jane Lynch. Not lying to others is one thing, and it is very human to fail so the best we do is fail forward. But being honest with our Self is another dimension. Not a new one to replace the old pov. An additional one that helps you experience life through a wider lens. #truth #nomorelies #creatorsearchinsights #fyp #cptsd

I said the worst things to myself, almost like I had to match the level of verval and emotional abuse to being abused as a kid. As I have gotten older and continued to fracture from my fear based mindset, my inner critic became too toxic to bear. Through trauma therapy, I silence my inner critic but it has been a battle that has required lightning to strike more than once. Most days now, he has no voice but when I trigger it still is my first reaction. I have at least been able to develop the ability to keep him underwater and I can destroy him quickly so the risk is mitigated. #innercritic #selfdestruction #healing #fyp #creatorsearchinsights

Just like the warmongering politicians, our Ego dissipates to the scale of Collateral Damage we suffer. It took me 20 years of marriage to finally realize I was the problem and answer.

There are two worlds that we live in, the external and the internal. The first is how we are controlled and manipulated by others, the other is how we overcome and stand tall on our own beliefs. The distraction comes when you naturally think that overcoming requires recognition. That is external, that is never going to help. Self reminder, the only recognition that matters is our own. Love is seeing yourself through your own eyes and not theirs. #integration #wellness #selfbelief #fyp #HealingJourney

Shadow Realm

TikTok post — 2026-02-16 Shadow Realm: Digging deep into the shadows on this one. I have always felt like am imposter when I am succeeding or achieving. As if I was disrupting the balance of both space and time because I was not meant to fly like others. It is like an attack by an energy that opposes my light and my flight. As if it was someone I knew who didnt want to let me go? Or a fallen angel that wants me to suffer as well? Either way I dont fly right, I struggle but I dont quit. Even if I never make it off the ground I know that I have helped others fly. Maybe that was the point all along. I am in a supporting role internally and externally. Or maybe I am believing my shadows and fooling myself with self pity. For whatever reason, success in this life doesn't come easy for me and it is always under attack but I am really good at helping others succeed. So this post is my way of looking in the mirror and ending the pity and abandonment. Yes it hurts to struggle and suffer and it is purposeful to help others succeed. #HealingJourney #duality #cptsd #fyp #therapyart

The Who and The Why

TikTok post — 2026-02-16 The Who and The Why: In line with the healing theme for me this morning, this content again helps me build my own identity. Understanding the parts of my consciousness, shadow work, and the origin story of both is making an impact. Grape and SA destroys identity because the trauma shifts us into a fear based mindset. The longer we are stuck there the more splitting we do. So for me to live in this fractured state for all these years created a lot of structural disassociation through all of my conscious parts. Slowly but surely, this knowledge is helping me heal. Why? Because little by little, my emotions no longer define my identify and neither does anything external. #cptsd #healingjourney #sasurvivor🖤 #fyp #mentalhealth

The kind of grief that is so deeply a part of you that there is no stopping it's pain. I started grieving at 6, my innocence being the first death in my life. Followed by too many frieds and cousins to sucide and drug overdoses. Then my divorce and then my Dad. 20 years with him gone and grief just keeps coming like waves in the ocean. It has been a big struggle for me my whole life. It shows up in the worst ways and on my worst days. What is inside my thoughts?

TikTok post — 2026-02-17 Owner Found: A lesson learned now that cost me everything I could not buy or steal. Unhealed trauma does not show itself safely and I have fought for and destroyed safety in my relationships too many times to not own it now. The wounds have to heal, abandonment and SA are horrible and there is no way in hell a relationship can survive until that is healed. I bled all over my wife and had to figure it out kicking and screaming for vengeance. Luckily I am way past the worst of it and I can only go forward while learning from past. #futuregoals #lettertomyself #selfreflection #fyp #creatorsearchinsights

Struggle and Flow

TikTok post — 2026-02-18 Struggle and Flow: Yeah all and neither are my imperfections. This is intentionally imperfect AI art to help connect with the fact that I may struggle and it may not look right but I will still get there. That, just like our scars, our struggles and imperfections do not have to define us. They can help us grow but that is about all they need to do. #fyp #creatorsearchinsights #selfreflection #futuregoals #HealingJourney

Freedom Pays its Price

TikTok post — 2026-02-18 Freedom Pays its Price: This album was a fun summer for me back a very long time ago. Like this song, I am free from my past but it left me grieving. The grief can be unbearable at times. The loss is overshadowed by the gains but the Light and shadow play tricks on me most days. Grief triggers abandonment so quickly. I will just watch this video and listen to this song to help me pay the price for my Feedom. #firehorse #fyp #creatorsearchinsights #selfreflection #therapyart

Two Sides to the Coin

TikTok post — 2026-02-18 Two Sides to the Coin: Do not abandon your darkness, your shadows. That pettiness, bitterness, jealousy and envy are a part of who you are. Not a part you like and that is ok, changing it takes time. It starts with understanding how my abandonment wound is at the root and then accepting that we all feel just like we think. Not every feeling deserves a reaction just as much as a thought. Hell, they are kinda one in the same. #HealingJourney #duality #therapyart #selfreflection #fyp

Hey You

TikTok post — 2026-02-18 Hey You: A sideshow of sorts through the wasteland of my company. I have always been on the extreme end of things. A bipolar personality is nothing compared to the polarity of life. It is nice to have special moments but they come at a price. So when you are in my company I usually dont have much to say. It is just safer that way for all of us. #fyp #HealingJourney #cptsd #lettertomyself #creatorsearchinsights

Safety First

TikTok post — 2026-02-18 Safety First: This is a very clear message that is very difficult to implement, especially for people with CPTSD. Why? Because it is unsafe, but the alternative is even worse. So it is something I am learning to do over time. For me I also struggle with controlling the trigger when this happens so I dont just call out the behavior. I lash out and hold people far more accountable table then they deserve because my past is being projected on the situation. In time I will heal and be able to simply assert myself and a boundary instead of tolerating things that hurt me. Or the alternative of burning bridges and fight clubbing. #accountability #tolerance #grace #fyp #cptsd

You Got Some Nerve

TikTok post — 2026-02-18 You Got Some Nerve: The central nervous system was what I learned growing up and through college. It seemed so secondary to our brain and our circulatory system controlled by our heart. I used to think our brains controlled our nervous system just like the heart, boy was I wrong because it is the other way around. That knowledge is some serious healing power if it leads you somatically. So yeah I am in, I see the power of my neurons and nervous system and will focus on being the thinker and the feeler, not my thoughts or my feelings. #selflovejourney #selfdiscovery #mentalhealth #emotionalhealth #creatorsearchinsights

Missing Persons

TikTok post — 2026-02-19 Missing Persons: This is the song they played at my Uncle's funeral so it automatically connects to my grief. A house in the woods, may seem simple to most but this is heaven for me. I imagine that house full of the way too many people that I love that passed on. I can smell my grandma's cooking and my Dad barbecuing. Throwing back a few cold ones with my cousins and my friends and just hanging out with my bro Oso. I would defintely be listening to my elders in the other ear, soaking up as much wisdom as I could just like when I was a kid. Grandpa's, Uncles, and my Pops would all be doing the same as us boys. Mmmm I can really smell my grandma's cornbread and taste her homemade pickles. I have been blessed with amazing people and relationships in my life, they haven't all been bad. Just the good ones are dropping like flies but thanks to this healing journey, so are the bad ones. #fyp #HealingJourney #emotionalhealth #creatorsearchinsights #mentalhealth

Fear Factory

TikTok post — 2026-02-19 Fear Factory: My nephew says it all the time, everything you are waiting for is waiting for you on the other side of fear. Little by little I am letting the fear go, the exposure therapy has really helped. These videos and captions with music have really helped. Sharing and connecting with people through this account has helped. As I continue to integrate and get on the other side of fear I hope for the courage to fly when it's time. #fyp #HealingJourney #selfgrowth #cptsd

But at the end of this life when accountability slaps you in the face, that is what keeps me hanging on. #selfgrowth #HealingJourney #fyp #mentalhealth #creatorsearchinsights

Sleeping Dogs Lie

TikTok post — 2026-02-19 Sleeping Dogs Lie: Sleep is an interesting part of life. Quite fascinating and profund really, because it is as relieving and therapeutic as it is traumatic and disturbing. At least for me it is, some nights I am so exhausted that 4 to 6 hours of REM sleep is the best thing ever. That requires a CPAP and the ability to breathe through my nose but it's awesome when I get that. The kicker though for me is the sleep I get before or after that (usually after). That is when the worst shit happens and my mind goes into erase mode to protect me. 4AM is an interesting time in the morning, so is 3:33 both have meaning for me. When I am up at 4AM it is because of my programming, that was my alarm time for work for 20 years. Problem is I woke up every morning in a physical panic for those 20 years and that is programmed too. I will often have to get up and go stretch out in my recliner with some binaural music to ground my nervous system. I often stay there until I can stop the flashbacks and any recall (if any) of the nightmares I had. It is crazy to know you had nightmares but not be able to remember them. If I could go back and tell 6 year old me anything it would be its not your fault and you will eventually not remember your nightmares when you wake up. When I wake up at 3:33 though, it is not in a panic and going back to sleep is easy. But that is when I really dream and then wake up in a total tirggered state. Those moments are intense and my dreams are really strange but repetitive. Most days lately, I am up at 5:30am with mild physical fear and my mind is only going about 65 mph instead of it's typical 120 mph. I have a love hate relationship with sleep, at least my years of insomnia are over. I would add that to the list of things to tell 6 year old me. Sleep is a mystery that has meaning, no matter how much we suffer from it. #nightmares #sleepissues #fyp #mentalhealth #HealingJourney

Winner, Winner

TikTok post — 2026-02-19 Winner, Winner: The road less travelled, that high road that requires patience, builds strength and resilience. To win everything is relative, a reality perceived not gained. But we perceive it that way so it is that way. Winning is an outcome, a result and we observe that only. That means we are missing anything more than that, win or lose, either way you see it. Win or lose makes that reality singular, which is never the case. Maybe it is because I coach kids and focus more on their psychosocial development then their athletic development that helps me see more. I think it just pushes me to speak up, I am not saying anything we don't already know. Winning is relative, to me it requires more than any outcome or result. It requires achieving growth, both individually and as a team. For me, this pov makes this quote way more powerful. #HealingJourney #mentalhealth #selfgrowth #creatorsearchinsights #fyp

Phantom of the Opera

TikTok post — 2026-02-20 Phantom of the Opera: One can dream right? Even to my own demise yes. Limerencing myself to sleep I am. Its the drop that hurts the most, the shadows are where I spend most of my days. It is nice, heavenly in fact, when she becomes reality and the shadows fade. That is when the music gets loud and the colors get bright. Before long, the shadows always return and I retreat into the shadows while she turns back into a ghost. #limerence #cptsd #duality #fyp #therapyart

Round and Round

TikTok post — 2026-02-20 Round and Round: This picture was titled Infinite Circles and this song talks about what I like to call the "bang your head against the wall method of learning." That is what CPTSD is for me, just an infinite loop of running into brick walls that keep you from exiting. This condition is currently diagnosed in women far more than men. My therapist thinks that is because most men are like I was and hiding their childhood trauma. I can't argue that logic, technically I was diagnosed in early 2022 when I finally said something about being SA as kid. This condition is just as real for both though and I pray that all of us find peace. I dont know if I will ever get off this carousel so I am just going to have to make my peace here. I am doing my best to just stop before I hit the wall and turn around so I can try again. Metaphorically speaking, Metaphorically dreaming. #fyp #cptsd #therapyart #selfgrowth #creatorsearchinsights

Crazy Horse

TikTok post — 2026-02-20 Crazy Horse: I saw a post that asked is everyone really spiritually woke or are we simply justifying hurtful behavior? I was thrown by the term, normally we say awakening but point made nonetheless. For me, I am awakening to my cptsd, which means I am accepting that it is true and healing from it. Awakenings, spiritual or not require transformation. Not in our way of thinking, more so in our entire way of being. An interesting point for me to be at as I reach my fifties. Not only am I wiser, I am also transforming through trauma healing. All that lining up with the year of the fire horse is crazy so I really like this horoscope. Gives me hope. #selfgrowth #cptsd #HealingJourney #fyp #selfreflection

Self Soothe

TikTok post — 2026-02-22 Self Soothe: Depression is like a warm blanket, on most days, that is very comfortable and familiar. This video and song capture that feeling so well for me, especially at the end as the sun provides hope that the rain could stop. When it does it wont be for long but I am far more scared of the sunshine versus the rain. I love the smell of the rain because it is a familiar pain that I know can't escape anyways. I have had this sadness, this familiar depression since I was little. To be honest, I don't know how to live without it at this point in life. #fyp #depressed #sadness #cptsd #creatorsearchinsights

Opposite Day

TikTok post — 2026-02-22 Opposite Day: This song is so good at calling out the contradictions that we live through. This concept that we can transform yet hold onto the past is a delusion that we all have to wake up from. I have had to make many transformations in my 51 years of life, it is how I overcome my addictions. If I am busy honest, this trauma healing transformation is my way of finally overcoming the source of my addictions. If I can shed my old skin once and for all I hopefully will finally become a stranger to my past self. #fyp #addiction #transformation #selfcare #creatorsearchinsights

The Long Way Home

The connection that I have developed with my wife is beyond profound. It is built through a lot of adversity, struggle and triumph. We have some fond memories and some triggering ones. Mainly because it got so real it triggered us both pretty early on and we trauma bonded our way through the years. There is a codependence between us that we have worked hard to fix. Hopefully we can find our way to coregulating as we go through our own healing journies this year. #fyp #HealingJourney #selfgrowth #duality #cptsd

I still sit in a triggered state, can't feel safe enough to open up to her. Everything about love is triggering for me and it is rooted in my shame of being abused for 2 years. So today I sway with the leaves and catch my breath when the birds come it. Exhaling shame because it was never mine to begin with. #sasurvivor🖤 #cptsd #HealingJourney #fyp #selfreflection

Authenticity is mandatory, so is accountability as they interdependent. It is just something you learn really fast when you were abused as a kid. This song triggered me as a teenager when it first came out. First time I heard it was at a party and I just lost it. I was pretty wasted so that didn't help. This is some serious exposure therapy for me.At least with this content I am not alone. #fyp #exposuretherapy #sasurvivor🖤 #cptsd #selfreflection

Chaos Theory

TikTok post — 2026-02-23 Chaos Theory: Life is fragile and creation is a delicate balance of controlled choas. Random events are one of the best ways that I can hear the universe calling. I am learning as I get older that the more I give things to chance, the less random life appears to be. Having CPTSD you might say I can be a control freak. I plan everything, it's my job and my volunteer job so learning to give things to chance isn't easy. It never ceases to amaze me though. So I am grateful for creation and that as random as I may be, I am still love. #cptsd #HealingJourney #selfgrowth #fyp #creatorsearchinsights

Iron Lion

TikTok post — 2026-02-24 Iron Lion: Well like most men, I am both strong and weak as I am guilty of bot offenses. What I am learning in my old age is how much better we all respond to encouragement verses criticism. The traditional understanding is that iron sharpens iron so we need to criticize to create the friction to improve. That is true for some but for others it is not. What is true Universally for everyone is accountability with grace. That is how I have changed the way I talk to myself and everyone else, with accountability and grace.

Life is a series of perceptions and perspectives that we develop as we age. There is always both positive and negative lenses for us ti use. Authenticity comes first, then positivity is pure. It helps to find some humor in the pain to get there and this picture just fits. I had fun with this one, the randomness is especially odd and funny in itself.

Whats on the Other Side? Intimacy is as horrifying as jumping out of

TikTok post — 2026-02-25 Whats on the Other Side? Intimacy is as horrifying as jumping out of an airplane. Absolutely no reason in the world for you to feel safe except to trust in your parachute. For me, even after all these years together, being married scares me to death. I don't have a parachute, I have attachment issues instead. Every single point in my complex web of triggers is connected to this relationship. That is how it works, just gotta keep showing up one day at a time. I gotta be honest, I have gotten worse over the years so I am out of time, I have to jump. I think I get it finally though, I have to feel that fear and let it take me back to where it came from before it will just be a memory. #HealingJourney #selfgrowth #fyp #duality #creatorsearchinsights

Accepting that I was abused and that my foundation to sex and intimacy and romantic love is based on this abuse no matter how much I have tried to change that, feels horrible.

Trigger, Trigger on the Wall

TikTok post — 2026-02-25 Trigger, Trigger on the Wall: Triggers are profound emotional and physical experiences that I used to make fun of in my thirties. Paying for that now, they are real and difficult for everyone. What I will never agree with though is a lack of accountability for that trigger. It is loving and compassionate for someone to try not to trigger you or to give you grace as you are accountable but they are our responsibility. They are underneath our CPTSD superpowers and connect us to our shadow. If processed correctly, they will shine a light on the self where your shadow used to be. So to awaken to the awareness of triggers and emotional flashbacks, even after all these years is a new phase, finally. #CapCut

This life is a journey back to the light, so it hits spiritually first. But then it hits with finding my way home at 19 and the many times I have had to find myself and redefine myself and transform myself in my life so far. It also hits with relationships, the long term ones including the in and out peeps. With other people, we have to be the Prism in their picture blocking out their dark to see the light. Just requires empathic and empathetic abilities. Love is the light. Lastly, it hits cause my CCR was one of my Dad's favorites. Used to listen to them a lot with him as a kid.

Bad Disease

The zoom effect is intentional to help share the complexity that this condition is. There is quite a list of "symptoms" that are really learned behaviors that develop out of survival from complex, repeated abuse. Some days I just want to scream as loud and and as long as I can because I feel like this freaking monster is what lives inside my chest. I know now that it is my nervous system, my frequency and vibration that is out of alignment that makes me feel and behave this way. This complex way driven by fear and protection, defensive strongholds and stubborn opposition. #isolation #fyp #creatorsearchinsights #transformation #healingjourney

With tears still rolling down my face I know what is wrong and what I need to do. Just need to take my time and be patient for those doors to close and windows to open. #isolation #healingjourney #cptsd #fyp #transformation

Look What I Can Do

TikTok post — 2026-03-02 Look What I Can Do: Having a lot more fun with AI, took one of my early posts that include song lyrics I wrote, and made a song. I love it, gives me chills and tears and a chance to really f'ing scream. Some therapy art on steroids, healing out loud in a new way. #cptsd ##HealingJourney #CapCut #fyp #MentalHealth

Cry it Out

TikTok post — 2026-03-03 Cry it Out: The song is called You Let It Go and it is for the heartbreaking reality of healing a trauma bond and losing everything in the process. At least they all grew, every last one of them. #CapCut #HealingJourney #fyp #cptsd #transformation

Circle of Life

TikTok post — 2026-03-03 Circle of Life: Look to self and find the way to somehow overcome our own ignorance. We eventually figure it out. the older and wiser we get, pain is the best teacher. Knowing that it is all connected and time is a construct help us reach our unlimited potential. Its not about luck, or chance, and especially not privilege. Its about perception. #transformation #cptsd #fyp #HealingJourney #duality

Kiss My Grits

TikTok post — 2026-03-03 Kiss My Grits: Yeah someday. This song has haunted me throughout the years and the quote really explains why. Bitterness isn't the word for it but it is similar.

Love Story

TikTok post — 2026-03-03 Love Story: The way, the truth and the life right? So the duality in me with God is I believe because Free Agency, the fall, and the Christ are more of a love story than anything else I know. I dont see God in churches. I see pain. I didnt see God in the scriptures until I realized that if he can speak to me through music and Nature, he can through scripture. To open up to his word is also a big rebellion against religion. I am the last person they want reading the Bible. God is Love and everywhere, they are who we need them to be until we meet them again. What a glorious ending to the journey. Just need to cross over through redemption. #redemptionsong #forgiveness #fyp #cptsd #HealingJourney

Heart on My Sleeve

When I hit rock bottom or the rug gets pulled out from under me, or even when I get stabbed in the back, I look at my choices. It is something I even factored into my abuse until trauma therapy. Our choices make our world go round. #MentalHealth #cptsd #HealingJourney #therapyart #fyp

Its a Trap! This is another reminder piece for me as I pay attention

TikTok post — 2026-03-06 Its a Trap! This is another reminder piece for me as I pay attention to where I am at in the infinite staircase. I am wrapping around my adolescent years going back to heal wounds that were self inflicted. My response to the SA as a kid once I was about 12 was FTW. I tagged it ever, didn't give 2 shits about anything. Especially if I lived or died and I lived recklessly and dangerously. I fell in with the wrong crowd and when I finally hit rock bottom a few years later it hurt as bad as the abandonment did as a kid. My anger disguised as protection lied to me. It put me in a whole new world of danger. Thank God for second chances and the healing of my wounds as I get older. I have this monster under control finally. #fyp #transformation #sasurvivor🖤 #cptsd #HealingJourney

The Art of War

TikTok post — 2026-03-06 The Art of War: This song is titled "The One Who Won" and talks about winning the fight but losing the love in the process. Marriage is messy, the more you love someone the more they trigger you. If unchecked and unhealed it is beyond toxic, I am that monster. Sad thing is so is she, but in her own ways and for her own reasons. We have to choose every day over accountability and winning in our closest relationships. It is foundational to love with free agency and sin. There is no love without accountability as it is the doorway to grace. #CapCut #cptsd #fyp #therapyart #healingjourney

Lonely Bones

TikTok post — 2026-03-06 Lonely Bones: This melody just feels like the warm blanket of Solitude for me. It has been with me for some time, to hear it played out loud is pretty amazing. It was guitar tab on sheet music paper I printed, just the skeleton of what is playing. I isolated it for this content as it captures those painful isolating moments that are so healing. Some sarcasm and snarkiness in the lyrics but that is the nature of this song. Get the pun? #healingmusic #cptsd #fyp #HealingJourney #creatorsearchinsights

Great way to step into the Light, no shame no fear and yes I am laughing at myself but the healing this song and video bring is worth all the embarrassment any day. #lookwhaticando #CapCut #fyp #cptsd #HealingJourney

Paradigm Shift

TikTok post — 2026-03-08 Paradigm Shift: This, yeah this right here, has been one of my highest and most difficult priorities since 2022 when they told me I had fractures in my back. I am better in a lot of ways, all because I try to get at least 15 min every morning to sit still. Alot times I will put on some binaural music and just sit. As uncomfortable or comfortable as it may be, every morning. At least 15 min but lately I am up to an average of 30 min. If something happens I find another time in the day to pause, everything. It is a micro change that has changed everything. So yeah I have finally reached the step where I can blast this one loud and proud, so my volume is all the way up. #healingjourney #cptsd #fyp #healingmusic #therapyart

Repeat Cycle

TikTok post — 2026-03-08 Repeat Cycle: The recovery, the healing, and the peace comes from self. It is horrible and beautiful with as much physical pain as anything else. Limerance is such a romantic word for it, but it literally hurts like hell. For me it has been with every relationship. A love sick fool with one hell of an anger shark swimming in his brain. #therapyart #healingmusic #fyp #cptsd #healingjourney

Buried Treasure

TikTok post — 2026-03-08 Buried Treasure: Latest track off the upcoming album, its a fast paced piece I have had with me since my divorce back in the year 2000. Feeling so lost inside was how it always started and it was a basic chord Progression I could ever only hear in my head. These lyrics are words written as I finally accepted that religion and church wasnt for me. It was an experience to say the least, surprising the hell out of me. Funny thing is it still took 20 plus more years before I would finally start healing the trauma that made all the churches and religions fake. All the versions and all the years later, this song is a living part of me that now others can hear as well. #CapCut

My Own Prison

Another Dimension

TikTok post — 2026-03-08 Another Dimension: That is definitely what it feels like on this road less travelled. I have always felt like I am from another planet, realm, or time. I don't vibe well with the collective energy of societies and communities today. I even struggle with my very, very small circle of friends and family. It seems to be more about winning than serving. More about being blessed versus sacrificing for others. Just a different energy than I prefer even though I am still learning how to not be like everyone else. #fyp #therapyart #healingmusic #cptsd #healingjourney

The biggest and most important lesson? Breathing and Stillness. Not any easier but I dont care, it is how to find yourself and your light and your truth. Sit still until you see it, that is what I have learned in 18 months of trauma, somatic, cognitive and exposure therapy. #healingmusic #acomplexhealing #fyp #cptsd #HealingJourney

It is easy for us to believe in something to dress an unhealed wound, but you can't fill a bucket with holes in it. To Thine Own self be true, especially when healing. Nothing external will fix the abandonment, that you have to do yourself. #fyp #cptsd #HealingJourney #therapyart #mentalhealth

Read Between the Chalk Outlines

TikTok post — 2026-03-28 Read Between the Chalk Outlines: A slower, more dramatic and cleaner version of The Road Less Travelled. This helps show the wear and the tear of taking this more challenging road. Trauma therapy is not widely used enough, accountability is avoided and emotions are managed when that happens. Through trauma therapy I have learned that emotions are to be felt, not managed. It is emotionally Ignorant to do this you, can't just change how you feel. Accountability is healing. So a song I love in a slightly different version to highlight how fun and important the choice is to go somatic. #CapCut #HealingJourney #cptsd #fyp #therapyart

This is my favorite part of the song, where the waves crash down and the current pulls you under. Life does it over and over again. The violin has a way feeling this pain, which is why I use it in the remix with a reggae beat. I actually love the blend of violins and reggae, with this song especially.

Seems so cheesy but man to hear your own words back to melodies that were trapped in your head is a whole new level of healing. The lyrics were in a post way back around the 300 range. Just the words no music, I defintely found the right voice for these words. I am so glad no one answered that post. I just put some random clips together for this video, random happy accident because the symbolism hits for me. Ironically symbolic. #CapCut #therapyart #cptsd #fyp #HealingJourney

TikTok post — 2026-04-08 Eyes Like Flies: This intro and opening line says it all, I did my best to capture that feeling. We are all human and we all sin, but in the eye of the Beholder only. Perception is a tricky skill to maneuver but one way that works is to develop eyes like flies. #MentalHealth #motivation #fyp #musictherapy #HealingJourney

Hyper-Aware

TikTok post — 2026-04-08 Hyper-Aware: Yeah this one gets you going a bit like an old 80's rock concert. Enough modern edge to it though and lyrically it is a guide to what it feels like to be hypervigilant all the freakin time. It helps me make peace with it and reminds me to go somatic. #CapCut #HealingJourney #musictherapy #fyp #motivation

Cause and Effect

TikTok post — 2026-04-10 Cause and Effect: Next track off the Chapter True album, this one is called Ripples in the Water. Life is cause and effect and we need to figure out how to forgive both. Or at least I do or I will drown. #CapCut #fyp #acomplexhealing #HealingJourney #musictherapy

Spider Sense

TikTok post — 2026-04-11 Spider Sense: Yeah that feeling is electric at times. creepy and on alert. Hypervigilance helps and hurts at the same time, but ends up hurting more than it's worth. This song, especially the intro, is just trying to share that physical sensation that 1000 papercuts feels like. The suspense rests in the melody and timing, I cant sit still listening to it. At least for now, eventually the exposure will work to my benefit. #fyp #cptsd #healingmusic #HealingJourney #musictherapy

Headbangers Ball

TikTok post — 2026-04-11 Headbangers Ball: It is not easy accepting what we know let alone all that we feel. Accepting that we cant just change how we feel by wanting to or forcing and faking it Till you make it. The water doesnt lie, Ripples hide the truth inside. the best part of the song, cant help but bang my head a bit every time. #musictherapy #HealingJourney #healingmusic #cptsd #fyp

Praise in the Storm

TikTok post — 2026-04-12 Praise in the Storm: This was is a fun little barn burner throwback to 80's Christian Rock (for any Stryper fans). It is a real part of the journey for me though, in my worst and most painful moments I give praise. It is very human and only part of what I feel but I do appreciate that if I can praise God through the storm then I will be able to grow from the storm. One of my favorite things I havw learned along this therapy journey is the gift of breath. It connects us to life. and it is how we say the name. #CapCut #yahweh #ywhw #healingmusic #fyp

Hammer or the Nail

TikTok post — 2026-04-19 Hammer or the Nail: Does it really matter? It is a rhetorical metaphor for a song, a question that cannot be answered about how abuse destroys, or really fractures, Identity.

Sneak a Peak

TikTok post — 2026-04-19 Sneak a Peak: Here is a just a quick peak into the first chapter of The Prologue just the first paragraph or so. The site has 5 page prevews of each book, plenty of content up there to review. The storytelling is evolving but the music is all there now. Alot to still write and edit as we are going all the way to Chapter Zen to stay toe to toe with the music. Healing isn't linear and neither is my journey so the storytelling has to match. #therapyart #fyp #HealingJourney #fyp #acomplexhealing

Sunlight is the Cure

TikTok post — 2026-04-22 Sunlight is the Cure: A song about depression that uses both sarcasm and hope to provide healing. Using a saying from an old boss of mine, Sunlight is the best disinfectant, meaning transparency is the best way to heal. Accountability, that real kind that is only between you and you, is where we need the most healing, or transparency, or as my old boss would say, Sunlight. #CapCut #depression #cptsd #healingjourney #healingmusic

Hammer Time

TikTok post — 2026-04-24 Hammer Time: First of the Chapter True Remix versions, a except from the book for this one is the best caption I can add. I used to think it was one or the other. That I was either the one being affected, or the one responding. Either the one holding everything together, or the one dealing with what came at me. That was easier. Cleaner. It gave me a way to organize things. To understand where I stood. But the deeper I’ve gone into this, the harder it’s been to hold onto that. Because it isn’t one or the other. It never was. I can see that now. Not just in theory. In real time. In the way I respond to things as they happen. There are moments where something shifts inside me before I even have time to think. A reaction forms. Fast. Automatic. #CapCut #fyp #acomplexhealingjourney #therapyart #healingjourney

Breathe There’s a point where understanding stops working.

TikTok post — 2026-04-26 Breathe There’s a point where understanding stops working. Not completely. But enough to notice. Enough to feel the edge of it. I’ve spent most of this process trying to make sense of what’s happening. Tracing patterns. Recognizing responses. Connecting what I feel now to what I’ve experienced before. And that’s helped. It’s given structure to something that felt chaotic. It’s made things clearer in a way they weren’t before. But there’s a limit to that. A point where the mind reaches as far as it can go— and something is still there. Something that doesn’t organize. Something that doesn’t fully translate. Something that exists outside of explanation. That’s where I am now. Sitting in it. Not confused. Not lost. Just aware that I’m not in control of this the way I thought I could be. That’s not an easy realization. #CapCut #healingjourney #therapyart #fyp #cptsd

Keeping Us Safe

TikTok post — 2026-04-26 Keeping Us Safe: I used to think peace was something I created. Something I earned by getting everything right. If I stayed ahead of things, if I managed my reactions, if I kept everything within a range I could control, then things would stay steady. That was the goal. Stability. No disruption. No escalation. No moments that felt like they might get out of control. And when things did stay steady, I called that peace. But it wasn’t. It was management. It was effort. It was constant adjustment to make sure nothing moved too far in any direction. That’s not peace. That’s control. And control has a cost. It takes attention. It takes energy. It takes a constant awareness of everything happening around me so I can stay ahead of it. #CapCut #fyp #MentalHealth #healingjourney #wellness

Sunlight is the Cure

TikTok post — 2026-04-28 Sunlight is the Cure: I didn’t avoid it because I didn’t care. I avoided it because I did. That’s the part I’m starting to understand now. Because if something doesn’t matter, you don’t build your life around not feeling it. You don’t create systems to manage it. You don’t develop patterns to stay ahead of it. You don’t carry it in ways you don’t even recognize. You just move on. But this wasn’t something I moved on from. It was something I moved around. Carefully. Consistently. Without fully realizing that’s what I was doing. I didn’t think of it as avoidance. I thought of it as staying functional. Keeping things together. Keeping things moving. Keeping things from getting to a point where they felt unmanageable. And for a long time, that worked. Or at least it looked like it did. Because from the outside, everything stayed intact. Responsibilities were handled. Decisions were made. Life kept moving forward. There was no clear indication that something underneath all of that wasn’t being addressed. But underneath it, something was staying in place #CapCut #healingjourney #MentalHealth #fyp #depression

Pleasant Surprises

TikTok post — 2026-04-30 Pleasant Surprises: I didn’t expect to find it here. Not in this part of the process. Not in the middle of everything that feels broken, exposed, and unfinished. Because for a long time, love didn’t belong in the same space as pain. They were separate. Love was something you reached for when things were good. Pain was something you managed when things weren’t. They didn’t overlap. Or at least, that’s how I understood it. So when it started to show up here—inside this work, inside the tension, inside the parts of me I’ve been trying to understand—it didn’t make sense. It felt out of place. Because what I was feeling didn’t look like love. It looked like confusion. Like grief. Like something missing. Something that should have been there and wasn’t. So how does love exist inside that? That’s the question that kept coming up. Not as a thought I could answer. As something I kept running into. In sessions. In moments where I stayed longer than I wanted to. In the space between reacting and understanding. It kept showing up. #CapCut #fyp #healingjourney #cptsd #therapyart

Truth Hurts

TikTok post — 2026-04-30 Truth Hurts: It’s about presence. Something that exists even in the middle of everything I’ve been working through. Something that doesn’t disappear just because I didn’t recognize it before. And that presence— that’s what I’m starting to trust. Not fully. Not consistently. But enough to notice it. Enough to stay with it. Enough to let it be part of this process instead of something separate from it. Because love isn’t just something you find when everything is okay. It’s something that exists underneath everything— even when it’s not. And realizing that doesn’t resolve the tension. But it gives it meaning. And meaning changes how I move through it. Because now I’m not just trying to get past something. I’m starting to understand what it’s been pointing to all along. And that’s what allows me to stay. Even when it’s difficult. Even when it’s unclear. Because now I know— this isn’t just pain. This is something deeper. Something that matters. Something that’s been there the whole time. #CapCut #healingmusic #musictherapy #sasurvivor🖤 #fyp

Flip the Script

TikTok post — 2026-05-01 Flip the Script: My chest tightens more. My breath shortens. My throat feels like it’s closing around something I can’t name. The instinct hits. Stop. Fix this. Do something. Because this doesn’t feel like something that should be allowed to keep building. But that’s the old pattern. Control it. Contain it. Move past it. This time, I don’t. Not because I feel safe. Because I’m tired of not knowing what this is. So I stay. And it gets worse. That’s the part no one tells you. When you stop resisting it, it doesn’t immediately calm down. It comes closer. Stronger. More real. Like something that’s been held back is finally allowed to move. My hands tighten. My legs tense. My whole body feels like it’s bracing for something that hasn’t happened yet. Then it shifts. Not away. Through. The pressure peaks, and instead of breaking me, it breaks open. #CapCut #fyp #HealingJourney #sasurvivor🖤 #musictherapy

Second Wind

TikTok post — 2026-05-01 Second Wind: There’s another version of it. One that stays. One that holds. One that exists without condition. And experiencing that, even briefly, changes something deeper. Because now I can’t go back to only seeing it the way I did before. Now I know there’s more to it. And that doesn’t just change how I receive it. It changes how I understand myself. Because if that kind of presence exists, then the parts of me I’ve been trying to fix before they’re acceptable don’t need to be fixed first. They can be met. They can be understood. They can be held in the same way. And that’s a different process. Not correction. Not improvement. Connection. That’s what this is. Not something I fully understand yet. Not something I can recreate on command. But something I’ve felt enough to know it’s real. And once you feel something like that, even once, it stays with you. Not as an idea. As a reference. Something you can come back to. Something you can recognize when it shows up again. And something you can start to build from. Not by forcing it. But by allowing it. And that’s new. But it’s real. And that’s enough to keep moving toward it. #CapCut #loveisuniversal #musictherapy #HealingJourney #fyp

Right Side Up

TikTok post — 2026-05-02 Right Side Up: I’m aware of how I’m participating in it. And that awareness doesn’t make me perfect. It makes me responsible. In a way that isn’t heavy. In a way that isn’t about blame. In a way that gives me agency. Because if I can see it, I can start to shift it. Not by forcing it. By staying present with it. By noticing the moment before the reaction completes. By allowing the feeling without letting it dictate everything that comes next. That’s what I’m learning. Not how to eliminate the reaction. How to relate to it differently. And that’s where the real change is happening. Because I’m no longer just caught in it. I’m starting to see it. And in that space, even when it’s small, even when it’s brief, something opens. Something that wasn’t there before. A way to respond instead of react. A way to stay present instead of being pulled completely into the pattern. A way to exist in the moment without needing to control it or absorb it completely. And that’s new. Not easy. But real. Because for the first time, I’m not just one or the other. I’m not just the hammer. I’m not just the nail. I’m something in between. And that’s where change becomes possible #fyp #HealingJourney #musictherapy #sasurvivor🖤 #therapyart

Ripples in the Water

TikTok post — 2026-05-03 Ripples in the Water: Thus isn’t just about healing what’s inside me. It’s about changing how I exist in everything I’m part of. Because nothing stays still. Everything moves. Everything connects. Everything carries forward into something else. And now, for the first time, I can see how that movement begins. Not somewhere outside of me. Here. In the way I feel. In the way I respond. In the space I create between what happens and what I do with it. That’s where it starts. And that’s what continues outward. Like ripples in the water. Expanding. Even when I’m not paying attention. Even when I don’t see how far they go. They move. And now I know why. #CapCut #fyp #cptsd #musictherapy #HealingJourney

Silent Screams

TikTok post — 2026-05-04 Silent Screams: Not everything I’ve felt has had words. That’s what made it so hard to understand. Because if something doesn’t have language, it’s difficult to recognize it as something real. It doesn’t fit into a sentence. It doesn’t organize into a thought. It doesn’t show up in a way that can be explained. It just exists. In the background. In the body. In the spaces between everything else. For a long time, that’s where it stayed. Unnoticed in a direct way, but always there in how I reacted. In the tension I carried without realizing it. In the moments where something shifted before I understood why. In the way certain situations felt heavier than they should have. It didn’t speak. But it influenced everything. And because it didn’t have a voice, I didn’t know how to respond to it. So I didn’t. I moved around it. Worked past it. Adjusted to it without knowing that’s what I was doing. That’s how it stayed hidden. Not because it wasn’t there. Because it wasn’t named. Now I’m starting to see it differently. Not as something I need to explain. As something I need to listen to. And that changes how I approach it. Because listening to something without words requires something else. It requires attention. It requires stillness. It requires a willingness to notice what’s happening without immediately trying to translate it. #CapCut #HealingJourney #sasurvivor🖤 #musictherapy #fyp

Last if the Chapter True remixes. Next post will ipen up Chapter

TikTok post — 2026-05-06 Last if the Chapter True remixes. Next post will ipen up Chapter Free. Here is another excerpt from the Chapter True book for the song you are hearing "Death by 1000 Papercuts:" (IYKYK) I kept looking for the moment. The one that would explain everything. The event. The memory. The point in time where something clearly went wrong. Because that would make it easier. If I could find it, I could understand it. If I could understand it, I could work through it. That’s how everything else works. You trace it back. You find the source. You fix what broke. But this didn’t give me that. There was no single moment that held all of it. No clear beginning. No obvious line I could follow from then to now. And that’s what made it frustrating. Because something was there. I could feel it. In my reactions. In the way my body responded before I had time to think. In the way certain situations carried more weight than they should have. It was real. But it wasn’t clear. It didn’t point to one thing. It pointed to everything. #CapCut #fyp #musictherapy #HealingJourney #cptsd

Two Truths and No Lies

TikTok post — 2026-05-07 Two Truths and No Lies: There was a time when I thought telling the truth would ruin everything. Not all truth. Specific truth. The kind that changes the room the second it leaves your mouth. The kind that doesn’t ask permission before it rearranges everything. The kind that cannot be taken back once it exists outside of you. That’s the truth I avoided. Not because I didn’t know it. Because I did. I knew. Somewhere. Not clearly. Not cleanly. But enough. Enough to feel it every time I got close. In the pause before speaking. In the words that almost came out and stopped at the back of my throat. In the way my body tightened before my mind had decided what it was allowed to say. That was the warning. #CapCut #fyp #HealingJourney #therapyart #cptsd

Reflector

TikTok post — 2026-05-08 Reflector: I used to think being an empath meant I felt more than other people. That I picked up on things others didn’t. That I carried more because I was more aware. It felt like both a strength and a burden. Something I couldn’t turn off. Something that made certain things harder than they seemed for everyone else. I would walk into a room and feel it. The tension. The mood. What wasn’t being said. I didn’t question it. I adjusted to it. Shifted my tone. Changed my posture. Matched the energy without realizing I was doing it. It felt automatic. Like that was just how I connected. But the more I’ve gone through this, the more I’ve started to see something different. It wasn’t just awareness. It was adaptation. I wasn’t just feeling what was there. I was responding to it in ways that weren’t always conscious. Taking it in. Holding it. Sometimes carrying it longer than it was ever meant to be carried. #CapCut #cptsd #HealingJourney #fyp #empath

Empath is a Reflector

TikTok post — 2026-05-08 Empath is a Reflector: At the core of this song and chapter in my story is the realization that empaths are created through horrible trauma. So are sociopaths, kind of insanely dynamic how something evil doesnt just create evil. It also create a level of love beyond what we are often "born with." Complex PTSD when healing lends itself to just that, combining hypervigilance and emotional recognition to have compassion and understanding. For others and yourself, but this requires healing. #empath #fyp #HealingJourney #cptsd #therapyart

It is the Key

TikTok post — 2026-05-10 It is the Key: For a long time, it didn’t feel like a choice. That’s the part I can see clearly now. The way I responded to things. The way I reacted under pressure. The way certain situations pulled something out of me before I had time to think. It all felt automatic. Like something was already decided before I got there. I didn’t think of it that way at the time. I thought I was choosing. I thought I was responding based on what made sense in the moment. But the deeper I’ve gone into this, the more I’ve realized how much of that wasn’t choice. It was pattern. It was learned. It was built over time in ways I didn’t see. And once something is built that way, it runs. Quickly. Efficiently. Without needing conscious input. That’s what makes it hard to recognize. Because it feels like you. It feels like how you are. Not something you’re doing. That’s what kept me in it for so long. I wasn’t questioning it. I was identifying with it. Thinking this is just how I respond. This is just how I handle things. This is just who I am. #rootcause #CapCut #fyp #cptsd #healingjourney

Ragebait

TikTok post — 2026-05-13 Ragebait: It’s everywhere. That’s the first thing I started to notice. Not just in obvious places. Not just online or in moments that are clearly charged. Everywhere. In conversations. In headlines. In the tone behind what people say even when the words themselves seem neutral. There’s a pull. A subtle invitation to react. To engage from a place that isn’t grounded. To get pulled into something before I’ve even had time to understand what it is. I didn’t see it that way before. It just felt like the world was intense. Like things were happening faster than I could process them. Like I had to keep up or risk missing something important. And that pressure— that constant sense of needing to stay engaged— kept me in a state of reaction. Not fully. Not always. But enough that it shaped how I moved through things. Because when everything feels urgent, everything feels important. And when everything feels important, there’s no space to choose what actually is. That’s where I lived for a long time. Responding to what was loudest. What was most immediate. What carried the most emotional weight in the moment. Not because I wanted to. Because it was constant. Because it was everywhere. And without realizing it, I was being pulled into it. #CapCut #healingjourney #cptsd #fyp #awareness

You Get What You Give

TikTok post — 2026-05-15 You Get What You Give: It doesn’t happen all at once. That’s something I don’t question anymore. There’s no moment where everything settles and stays that way. No final shift where nothing comes up again. No version of this where I arrive and remain untouched by everything I’ve been working through. What there is— is movement. Subtle. Consistent. Noticeable if I’m paying attention. Different from before. I don’t always see it right away. Sometimes I only recognize it after the moment has passed. But it’s there. In the space between what happens and how I respond to it. In the way something unfolds differently, even when the situation itself hasn’t changed. That’s where I’m starting to see it. A conversation that used to tighten something in my chest doesn’t land the same way. A tone that would have pulled me into reaction now registers, but doesn’t take over. A moment that would have escalated before… pauses. Not because I forced it to. Because something in me didn’t move the same way. That’s new. For most of my life, what I brought into a moment came from what I was carrying. Not intentionally. Automatically. If I was holding tension, it showed up in how I spoke. If I was trying to control something internally, it showed up in how I interacted externally. If I felt pressure, it moved outward into the space around me. I didn’t recognize it at the time. It just felt like I was responding to what was happening. But I can see it now. I wasn’t just responding. I was contributing. What I carried didn’t stay inside me. #CapCut #fyp #therapyart #acomplexhealingjourney #musictherapy

Music Heals

TikTok post — 2026-05-17 Music Heals: I used to think music was something I made. Something I controlled. Something I shaped into what I wanted it to be. That’s how I approached it. Technically. Structurally. Focused on getting it right. The progression. The timing. The way everything fit together. And that mattered. It gave me a way to express something. But it wasn’t the whole picture. Because the deeper I’ve gone into this process, the more I’ve realized something. I’m not always creating music. Sometimes, I’m uncovering it. That’s the part I didn’t understand before. Because there are moments now where something comes through that doesn’t feel constructed. It doesn’t feel like I’m building it piece by piece. It feels like I’m finding it. Like it’s already there. And I’m just stepping into it. That feeling is different. It’s less controlled. Less forced. There’s a flow to it that doesn’t come from thinking. It comes from staying. From being present long enough for something to move through me without interruption. That’s what’s changed. Because before, I would approach music the same way I approached everything else. With control. With intention. With a need to shape it into something that made sense. Now, I approach it differently. Not completely. But enough to feel the shift. I listen more. Not just to what I’m playing. To what’s happening underneath it. To the way something resonates before I try to define it. #CapCut #musictherapy #acomplexhealingjourney #therapyart #fyp

What Matters Most? When I look at what matters now, it’s not

TikTok post — 2026-05-26 What Matters Most? When I look at what matters now, it’s not complicated. It’s not a long list. It’s not something I have to think through every time. It’s felt. Connection matters. Not surface-level interaction. Real presence. Being with someone without leaving myself. That matters. Truth matters. Not perfection. Not saying everything the right way. Being honest about what’s actually there. That matters. Peace matters. Not the absence of movement. The ability to stay grounded while things are moving. That matters. Growth matters. Not constant improvement. Not chasing something better. Staying open to what’s unfolding without shutting down. That matters. How we treat people matters most. #CapCut #fyp #healingjourney #cptsd #kindness

Love is Honest

TikTok post — 2026-05-28 Love is Honest: I used to think love was something you felt. Something that happened to you. Something that either showed up or didn’t. If it was there, you held onto it. If it wasn’t, you figured out how to live without it. That was the framework. Simple. But incomplete. Because what I didn’t understand was how much of love isn’t about the feeling. It’s about how you experience yourself inside of it. That’s what’s different now. Not that love suddenly feels bigger. That I feel different inside of it. Before, love came with tension. Even in the good moments. There was always something underneath it. A need to maintain it. A need to not lose it. A need to stay aligned with whatever would keep it from shifting. And that created pressure. Subtle. Constant. Sometimes barely noticeable. But always there. Because if something feels like it can change based on what you do, then part of you is always watching. Always adjusting. Always making sure you don’t move in a way that disrupts it. #CapCut #healingjourney #fyp #acomplexhealingjourney #awareness

Integration

TikTok post — 2026-06-03 Integration: It doesn’t feel like a finish line. That’s the first thing I notice. After everything—after the awareness, the breakdown, the work, the moments that felt like they were tearing something open—there isn’t a moment where it all resolves into something final. There isn’t a point where I can say, “this is complete.” What there is is coherence. Not perfect. Not constant. But real. Things that used to feel separate don’t anymore. The way I think. The way I feel. The way my body responds. The way I move through the world. They’re not disconnected in the same way. They don’t pull in opposite directions as often. There’s less friction between them. Less internal negotiation. Less effort to keep everything aligned. Because now, more of it already is. That’s what integration feels like. Not everything being fixed. Everything being connected. There was a time when different parts of me felt like they were operating independently. The part of me that understood things logically. The part of me that reacted emotionally. The part of me that held tension in my body without explanation. The part of me that tried to manage all of it at the same time. They didn’t communicate. They overlapped. They conflicted. They created noise. Now, there’s something different. Not silence. Coordination. When something comes up, it doesn’t feel like I’m being pulled in multiple directions at once. It feels like I can experience it from more than one place at the same time. #CapCut #integration #cptsd #fyp #healingjourney

All That Matters

TikTok post — 2026-06-05 All That Matters: It’s quieter than I expected. Not empty. Not still. Just… quieter. After everything—the intensity, the questions, the unraveling, the rebuilding—I thought the end of this would feel bigger. More defined. More certain. Like something I could point to and say, “this is it.” But it doesn’t feel like that. It feels simpler. Stripped down. Like everything that didn’t need to stay has fallen away. And what’s left— is clear. Not in a way that answers every question. In a way that doesn’t need to. Because the need to have everything figured out isn’t there the same way anymore. That’s what’s different. Not that I understand everything. That I don’t need to in order to move forward. For most of my life, I’ve been trying to get to a place where things made complete sense. Where I could explain why I felt what I felt. Why things happened the way they did. Why I responded the way I did. I thought clarity meant resolution. That if I could just understand it all, it would settle. But that’s not what happened. What happened is something else. I stopped needing everything to resolve before I could live. All that Matters, is All that Matters. #CapCut #fyp #healingjourney #cptsd #musictherapy

The music video adding imagery to the journey itself

Music Videos

Lost and Found

Built on lyrics and a melody that has been in my head and on paper for quite some time, in many ways is like the first steps in the journey.

The One Who Won

Last Track on the Chapter Won album and was worthy of a bonus version at track 11.
