Quote by Shreve Gould

“Having PTSD does not make us less than. Let us stand tall and bloom. Let others see our true beauty and change the stigma of having PTSD, Let us share our journey for others to see the healing, changing of behaviors that don't protect anymore and our growth beyond our trauma.”

“How can you explain the loneliness I felt? While In the darkness by myself. How can you explain the hurt that exists from the trauma that persists. My voice seems lost Or as if aside it is tossed. My breath was taken the moment my reality was shaken My defensive behaviors were created to protect me and became automated In my fight, flight or freeze response my intimacy with others was lost at once. Now more darkness falls upon me for the protective behaviors no longer protect me but keeps me in the darkness by myself.”

“What we fail to teach our children and what the community fails to see is that we need inclusion and acceptance, not superficial chesed. I’m not looking for someone to come and sit with my child, call her cute and feel like they’ve done something good. No, I need people to come alongside us during the hard times as well. You don’t just get to host my child for a meal or a night and check a box that you’ve done integration. True acceptance is completely integrating my child in all aspects of society.”
