Trying to notice schemas within my own mind and even relationships, to a point.

I'm also thinking of doing Internal Family Systems with my new therapist.

So far, we've done CBT techniques and the like.

What do you recommend in terms of healing from trauma?

I'm on Zoloft (which is replacing Lexapro and is directly responsible for dealing with trauma or PTSD or C-PTSD) and it's done away with my traumatic flashbacks (which were daily).

Hope you all are doing well, comrades!

Sudden mood changes can be unsettling, but getting to know them will help you regain balance and, if needed, find support

I'm thinking of using a med to treat C-PTSD.

I have daily traumatic flashbacks.

How do I get rid of this?

I talked about this video in this post here.

There’s very little information on chamomile’s effect on insomnia. A 2019 review of six small studies included only one study on insomnia. That one study found that chamomile had no benefit for insomnia. The same 2019 review looked at five studies on chamomile’s effect in non-insomnia populations. The review concluded that chamomile might help improve the individual component of sleep quality over a 4-week period in people without insomnia.

Ingredients in order: chamomile, spearmint, lemongrass, tilia flowers, blackberry leaves, orange blossoms, Hawthorn, rosebuds
