Can a traumatized brain ever go back to normal?

if you have a diagnozed mentaL HEALTH PROBLEM THEN no.

if YOU HAVE JUST BEEN THROUGH SOME TRAUMA THEN yes.

We put way too much importance on "normal" in this society. Normal is a myth.

Can a traumatized brain recover? Many times, yes.

Yes. BCAA (Branch Chain Amino Acids) for starters.
Look it up.

no. if it's too severe, it sticks with the person for the REST of their life and will fuck with their lives

That's why I put quotes on it. We are all crazy to some degree. No doubt.

But some are more normal and cookie cutter than others.


How do you retrain yourself to stop ruminating or having flashbacks? Trauma and or abuse has physical symptoms aswell like nerve pain. Marijuana is really good for grounding. But sober, retrainijg your reactions is hard.

I know. That's the horrible part about it.

Yes. Eckhart Tolle.

I will. Thank you.

I think if it goes on too long it may be irreversible.

this is why I say if something is causing you depression CHANGE it immedialtey. Do not allow depression to go on. Because I theorise that the brain creates patterns from this and 'roads' for lack of a better term in the mind. The longer it goes on the more entrenched these roads can get.

Yeah..... That's exactly my line of thinking....

Once it's severe I believe you can retrain your brain but it is sooo hard. Some days are great and others you sink down into that pit; those days are real dark. I guess you gotta be strong and manage the best you can.

Idk, my ex wife did and said a lot of horrible things to me last year that I still haven't gotten over and constantly think about. I just want it to end.

I'm sorry. Did she do it because you hurt her first or was there no reason from you for her to do it?

I didn't deserve anything she did to me. I was really good to her. She just used me for a green card. Cheated on me, lied to me all the time, looked up things like "widow green card, death of spouse before interview, sleeping drug, inject air near heart". Then once I was no longer of any use to her, she divorced me. So I'm still suffering from the narcissistic abuse and it feels like PTSD.

Wow. I'm so sorry. That's another story then.

Sometimes when us women have been hurt by you men we turn into the grudge, I know. And even if you changed it is so hard for us to forgive and we drive you crazy but we're just hurting.

But that doesn't seem like your case. People are crazy that's all I can say. I know it hurts when you really loved that person.

Trauma is living in the past and not accepting the HERE and NOW.

Thank you. I do know she suffered from abuse since she was 15. Sexual abuse from nasty older men and she used to do a lot of drugs. So I know she has had a lot of trauma as well, so I don't completely blame her and can forgive, but I can't forget it which is the problem.

Absolutely yes.
Other people sharing or psilocybin experiences

The problem is trauma or physical trauma causes PHYSICAL symptoms which cannot be turned off at will. You can't just will it away.

Not while the things that caused the trauma still are going on.

I am fine with not being normal, and glad i am not like most other males.

So what, if i am seen by others as not normal. My life has nout to do with them, there definition of normal has nothing to do with mine.

Humans have multiple personalities, and even if a person can remake one that made them somewhat normal, triggers exist in life that can bring back the personalities that are not normal as you can say.

Like the nursery rhyme, about humpty dumpty, and how you cannot put it back together, is about the human mind splitting, and you can never make it better again.

Its why zooo000-s running todays west want primary school kids to be having anal sex, so they are traumatized for life, and easily controlled by the zooo000-s in there communist 1 world vile gov that they want to make.

Its possible op, to remake a new personality in a human, that makes them somewhat normal, but like i said, triggers exist that bring back the personalty that is about the trauma.

The human mind is very complex, and does these things for a reason.

The nursery rhyme, humpty dumpty says it all

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again.

These old nursery rhyme kids used to have, had truth in them, that obviously kids would never understand, but adults do.

Narcissistic abuse is terrible to recover from. I think I would have preferred physical trauma. The only thing that can heal it is going to be time, and lots of it. I'm 7 years out from the split and still dealing with it. Diagnosed PTSD because of it. False allegations, kidnapped my kid and took him 1300 miles away. Was an uphill battle to get my kid back, and now attempting to co-parent 50-50 with a narcissist that repeatedly lies to you, and coaches the kid to lie to CPS...I could go on and on. If you are religious, it's a test and a cross to bear. If you are spiritual or an atheist or something, you will have your own opinions on it and it will practically pull you apart at the seams trying to wrap your head around it. The trick is to find a way to distract yourself from it. It's the only way. Bide your time so time can wash away some of the pain. New hobby or something, music helps me. With PTSD you can't just turn the thoughts off or you wouldn't have PTSD. Your past will literally dominate every aspect of your life to the point it gives you digestive issues or heart problems from the overwhelming stress. Find yourself a healthy distraction you get excited about when you think about doing it.

There was a book in the free section by the bathrooms at the library that mentioned going through shock as a baby gives you superhuman powers but takes 30 years off your life.

Can a network of stalkers cause 14 felonies , purposely aim attacks at the back of the head . Like it was planned.

Yeah not sure , it's sort of wrong to pile it on someone or ditch them when ur guessing at what someone is doing.

I think maybe with some medication and some parties with coke you will be normal again . I'm not sure how poorly u treat people but that trauma can be fixed. Try doing something not designed to errode others

No. Trauma stays with you. You can mitigate its effects through frequent prayer.

As long as you set one at variance to the rest in order that you may benefit from their pain and you know damn well what i am talking about
How is weather made? No bullshit answers allowed remember we are playing blitz chess and false witness costs

The brain? Yes.
The mind? Maybe.

If you mean by 'normal' to go back as it 'once was' then no, nothing stays the same. Everything is constantly changing. That goes for good and bad things alike. However, it is possible to integrate with what has been experienced.
It's all depends on how you deal with it. One thing I've learned is that some things just happen, and some things keep returning to your thoughts. And that means you need to process those thoughts and feelings, and eventually tell yourself that you've done that and continue with your life. Don't ignore feelings that coming back, they're coming back because you have not dealt with them yet.

yes you can. when you have gone through childhood abuse, the kid's brain creates repressed memories of the abuse. later in adolescence these memories begin to surface as dreams or flashbacks. this is the critical period and is when most people are diagnosed with a mental illness. what must be done us the following; get away from your abusers, and process the momeries and emotions that they load you you with. if you do this for as long as needed (might take a few years), full or almost full recovery is likely. if you do not process the traumas and you are unable to get away from your abusers, mental illness is the likely result and it's irreversible. the critical period is late teens.

do not go to a shrink b/c they will give you meds and screw up the recovery process. you must do this alone. though it is recommended you tell a trusted friend about the abuse when you have almost recovered (never a shrink!).

Sleep, un medicated sleep is how the brain heals itself… Others may criticize you, and say you are sleeping too much. But sleep patterns will return to normal, but be aware, it can take a long time…Years.,
