You'll know when you get there. Now, did this client have back to flashbacks of this? But there seems to be a file based on this trauma, based on this wounding experience that was able to push through the medication. So don't hear me saying medication's going the wrong way. But in this example, I think the discovery inspires hope.

But in this example, I think the discovery inspires hope.

In a situation where there seems to be so little hope, and in this scenario that I'm making up, what's the answer? Do I just keep upping the dosage? Well, that thing happened to me, so that must mean, is that the answer? So back to this both and of maybe there's something to look at here.

Maybe there's some work that can be done. Maybe I do need to be on medication to get stabilized. Maybe the medication will help me be stabilized enough to build the window of tolerance that I need to do this type of historical work. But there's also some work that can be done. And we're not just treating symptoms.

20%. And now that number goes up, oftentimes the way you just described it. And finding out something different, a different way to do your day. It is an artificial environment, one could say, when we're talking about the bridge. And also it's a metaphor for me in real life. It's not just these therapeutic interventions or what some group member says or what some therapist says.

All those things can be powerful, but what are the things that you added to your day? And how can you take that back with you? Doing your day different. Checking in with which me's in the driver's seat. Journaling is an excellent way to do that. Or just simply some mindfulness and some meditation. Life's busy. We don't always have time to do these things, but take a minute.

Some folks will refer to the inner child. Some folks prefer the original child, the original me, authentic me, but yes.

What it brings up for me, so many things, but this concept that I prefer, that's not going to sound very clinical at all, it's grit. Grit is something that I think we all have. I think we're all born with. And you talk about this wounded child and these wounding events. Something happens, and a lot of us, out of that, our grit gets covered up.

And so I've met so many people that to survive, they did it by submitting. And so losing their voice, becoming compliant, to spend decades trying to find their grit. While another human being, out of their woundedness, may have survived from grit, and they live from it. They can't not live from it. And they live from it for decades. And so the question tends to be, at what cost? At what cost?
