OVERVIEW Sometimes things are going to be bad. If the title resonates with you. chances are you are going through a struggle. If you are seriously struggling: REMEMBER Struggle can produce profound gifts, if you can struggle well. Step by step journey based on research and experience working with veterans and military family members who had PTSD. Inspired by Tedeschi who coined the term Postraumatic Growth, who emphasized that people could find meaning, purpose and significance even out of the worst tragedies. PTSD shouldn't be a disorder that follows you around for the rest of your life. PTSD is like driving slow while looking in your rear view mirrors straight to your garage. EG Ferrari. PTG is like being in the drivers seat, looking out the front windshield, pressing the gas and being in the moment. People want fulfilment and connection. They want purpose and progress. They want growth, love and peace. Making PTG happen we must understand that everyone struggles. Bad things happen, but what distinguishes the people who grow and prosper is the fact art they're not afraid to struggle. They embrace struggle because they know it's inevitable and even useful. Trauma is nearly universal, PTG teaches us that it's what we choose to learn from our struggle that matters. Life is going to slap us in the face, maybe even punch you. You can choose to react negatively, or you can choose to respond positively. TURNING STRUGGLE INTO STRENGTH.
