Our culture emphasizes strength and self-reliance above all else. The old "Boot Strap" mentality. This often creates a stigma around seeking help for mental health issues, as many feel pressure to present themselves as unbreakable.
Many more people are afraid to share their true experiences because they feel it is too “trivial” or they feel their pain is “unworthy” of burdening others. And some people simply hide their pain for fear of the stigma associated with mental health issues in a culture where they are expected to “suck it up”.
But all that hiding, burying, or pushing aside pain only exacerbate the emotional and mental weight of problems brewing under the surface.
It's time to end the stigma and get on the path of recovery.
To help you get started, this weekend (Black Friday through Cyber Monday), the PTSD Recovery Series eBooks and Audiobook are on sale.
Give yourself (or someone you care about) the gift of healing this holiday season.

Healing isn’t just about surviving trauma, pain, or anxiety. It’s about learning to sit with joy again, to accept happiness without guilt, and to let yourself fully exist in the good moments too.
Remember: Mental health isn’t optional, healing isn’t linear, and needing support isn’t a flaw.
