When award-winning journalist Stephanie Foo was diagnosed with Complex PTSD, the information she found felt cold and clinical. What she needed was something warmer–more human. So she took her diagnosis into her own hands…literally. In this episode, Stephanie and Shin Yu trace a path to healing; from childhood trauma to the power of first-person storytelling. Along the way, they explore what it truly means to be seen, and how telling your story can help you, and others, survive it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this video, I give the full story on how I recovered from my own Complex PTSD symptoms, and how teaching my method grew from a few people to millions of people over the course of 30 years. My focus is not on childhood or the origins of trauma (this is the special expertise of licensed clinicians). Rather, I focus on practical ways to regulate the nervous system, and principles and techniques to get your life together and NOT fall into the old self-defeating behaviors that used to drag you down.

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of You're Not Broken, Dr. Kelly Casperson is joined by psychiatrist Dr. Judith Joseph to unpack the complex relationship between trauma, high-functioning depression, and the systemic challenges facing both patients and providers in healthcare. Dr. Joseph shares her unique career journey from anesthesiology to psychiatry—a shift fueled by the pursuit of deeper fulfillment and connection. Drawing from her new book High Functioning, she explores how trauma can show up in unexpected ways: perfectionism, strained relationships, and even the culture of medicine itself. Together, Dr. Joseph and Dr. Casperson dive into the mental health crisis within the medical profession, the difference between complex PTSD and traditional PTSD, and why trauma-informed care must become the standard in healthcare. They highlight the need for preventative mental health care and why joy—not just happiness—is vital to healing. Key Takeaways: Dr. Judith Joseph's new book High Functioning explores hidden depression and the masks people wear. A desire for deeper meaning and purpose sparked her transition from anesthesiology to psychiatry. Trauma can subtly impact daily life, relationships, and career satisfaction. Complex PTSD differs from traditional PTSD and requires a nuanced approach. Perfectionism may be a trauma response rooted in avoidance and fear. Many healthcare professionals operate with unresolved trauma, often unacknowledged and invalidated. The medical system itself can contribute to both patient and provider trauma. High-functioning depression is widespread but often misunderstood or overlooked. Preventative mental health care is crucial—waiting for a crisis is not sustainable. Joy is a core component of mental health, not a luxury or afterthought. Understanding one's own trauma can make you a more effective and empathetic clinician. Identifying and naming emotions can be profoundly therapeutic. Self-care and setting boundaries are necessary acts of preservation, not selfishness. https://www.instagram.com/drjudithjoseph/ High Functioning Book by Dr. Joseph https://drjudithjoseph.com/ Sedona in October - only five slots left: https://www.ascendretreats.com/menopause-and-sexual-health-2025 Order my book "You Are Not Broken: Stop "Should-ing" All Over You Sex Life" Listen to my Tedx Talk: Why we need adult sex ed Take my Adult Sex Ed Master Class: My Website Interested in my sexual health and hormone clinic?

Developmental trauma refers to the impact of early, repeated trauma and loss within a child's most important relationships. This typically occurs in the earliest years of life. This kind of trauma isn't always loud or obvious. It can be subtle; emotional neglect we don't remember, an abandonment wound that lingers beneath the surface, or toxic stress that quietly eats away. All of this we carry into adulthood, taking a toll on our well-being. Developmental trauma occurring before the age of five—officially termed childhood developmental trauma—falls under the broader category of complex trauma, also known as Complex PTSD (CPTSD). Its effects can last a lifetime. While it often stems from childhood, complex trauma can also develop through repeated distressing experiences in adulthood. The weight of unresolved trauma can manifest in our bodies, our relationships, and our mental health... without us even realizing its origin. Guest Linda Meredith, is a highly respected leader in trauma recovery, renowned for her innovative approaches to Complex PTSD (CPTSD) healing. As an accredited Pioneer Training Provider and Clinical Complex Trauma Professional, Linda coaches and educates individuals globally. She is the founder of Healing from Complex PTSD and holds several significant firsts in the field, including being Australia's first Certified Trauma Recovery Coach and Supervisor, the world's first Advanced NPE Trauma Recovery Coach, and the CEO of the International Complex Trauma Association. Speaking with host Gabby Sanderson, Linda unpacks the difference between PTSD and Complex PTSD, also breaking down how childhood developmental trauma can manifest in our lives. Linda highlights the importance of protecting ourselves from people we don't fully know or trust, explaining why setting boundaries around vulnerability is crucial whilst on your complex trauma recovery journey. Healing from trauma isn't about fixing what's broken, it's about reclaiming the lost parts of ourselves. Linda believes Complex PTSD recovery is possible and happens one step at a time. The complex trauma expert also shares a couple of simple techniques to calm the nervous system after being triggered, and opens up about her own journey with CPTSD. At 38, suppressed childhood trauma surfaced, leaving her bedridden and unable to walk, talk, bathe, or feed herself—requiring full-time care. With incredible determination, Linda began rebuilding her abilities, ultimately transforming her own recovery into a mission to help others never have to face the long recovery she did.

In this compelling episode of The Collier Landry Show, we explore the devastating impact of complex PTSD through the lens of a tragic New Year's Day event. Dr. Roger Rhoades, an expert in trauma and mental health, will join us in discussing the case of Master Sgt. Matthew Livelsberger, a decorated U.S. Army Special Forces veteran whose private struggles led to a public tragedy. Livelsberger's actions—a Tesla Cybertruck bombing outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas—shocked the nation and raised urgent questions about mental health care for veterans. We unpack the string of events, from his cryptic messages to loved ones to the mounting evidence of a traumatic brain injury and unaddressed grief over his military service. Dr. Rhoades sheds light on the psychological toll of complex PTSD, the challenges of reintegration after military service, and the warning signs that often go unnoticed. Together, we examine the intersection of mental health, personal tragedy, and societal accountability to foster understanding and change.

In a wide-ranging conversation about art and mental health, Virginia opened up about the daily reality of creating while living with PTSD. Like many artists navigating disability, Virginia's journey includes managing sleep disorders and triggers that disrupt the flow of her day. Through sharing her experiences, Virginia highlights a truth that often gets overlooked: disability needs aren't one-size-fits-all, and our support systems shouldn't be either. Her advocacy for integrated, comprehensive care services speaks to something bigger than just accessing help; it's about creating the conditions where disabled artists don't just survive - they thrive and create remarkable work that enriches our world.

Scroll down for all links mentioned in today's show!For the longest time, I denied having any trauma, but through therapy and a ton of research, I've come to realize its significant impact on my life and my ADHD.In today's episode, I discuss what trauma is and provide definitions and resources, especially focusing on Complex PTSD and its links to ADHD. One of the key takeaways is understanding how our experiences and the way we handle them can shape our mental health. For example, proper support and validation can prevent traumatic outcomes, as highlighted by trauma expert Peter Levine.I also delve into various types of trauma and the importance of creating safe environments. This is particularly crucial for neurodivergent individuals like us, as unhealed emotional wounds can have profound effects on how we show up in the world. I even share a personal story about my son to illustrate how validation, support, and protection can prevent lasting trauma.A significant part of our conversation revolves around the ongoing debate about whether ADHD is caused by trauma or genetics. While unaddressed trauma can mimic ADHD symptoms, it's crucial to differentiate and understand both. We explore Complex PTSD and how emotional flashbacks can resemble the ADHD trait of emotional dysregulation. I also talk about the trauma responses—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—and share my personal experiences, including how I've often suppressed my true self for safety.Finally, I recommend some fantastic resources such as books by Dr. Bruce Perry and Pete Walker, and even suggest trauma assessments. I can't emphasize enough the importance of seeking therapy with a trauma-informed therapist. Addressing our past wounds is essential for personal growth and overall well-being.This episode is a deep dive into a subject that's both personal and universal. Recognizing and addressing trauma can be a pivotal step in our journey with ADHD. Thank you for joining me in this exploration. Remember, you are not alone, and there are resources and support systems available to help you through this. What Happened to YouComplex PTSD From Surviving to ThrivingThis book is also free with a Spotify subscription Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) Questionnaire Multidimensional ADHD Symptom ProfilesToxic Family Test
