Related Questions
I have a question about this episode Bob "Ninja" Poras - Inside CIA's Global Response Staff | SRS #45 (Part 2) and this Turning Points. I noticed that in several podcasts, there are too many assumptions, particularly when addressing PTSD and amnesia. For example, I was in a blunt force trauma car accident and have no memory. CPTSD was in place prior to the car accident, which is the cause of my amnesia 16 months ago. Now I have both conditions and am stumped as there has been no improvement. Thus, I must live with both and do not know what to do. Am I resilient? Yes. However, the combination of these conditions is something I'm coping with as I do not want meds or therapy. I believe I can self-heal, but how can I do that?
