ℹ️🌿 WORKING WITH SHAME IS A HIGH ALTITUDE CLIMB | Gretchen Schmelzer
There are times when you are healing when the hiking is okay—bumpy and rocky, but okay. And there are times when it is steep, both up and down. But trauma work is often a high altitude experience. The air is thin. You have to work very hard and not make it very far. You need an experienced guide and some strong ropes. And there are some places where you are working hard to just put one foot in front of the other....

All behavior is trying to communicate something. Sometimes it’s not communicated in the best way, especially with our children who are still developing.
They can behave in ways that can be irrational, frustrating, and sometimes unsafe. At this point we say someone has “flipped their lid’ meaning their brain is offline and they are feeling unsafe. They are unable to access rational parts of their brain in this state.
Support your child to feel a sense of felt safety which will enable their brains to get back online and gain the ability to work cooperatively. Taking the time to “connect before you correct” will be much more impactful in changing behavior.

Loving someone with Substance Use Disorder can be extremely difficult. They don’t call it a “family disease” for no reason. But we wholeheartedly believe there’s no such thing as a lost cause. Groups like Al-Anon & Nar-Anon can be extremely helpful for gaining an understanding and finding a support group that understands just what it is you’re going through.
