There have been a lot of stories here of the retraumatisation of services, and I want to make sure we acknowledge just how wide spread this is Heart There is a lot of pain caused by negative experiences with mental health services. One thing that really comes to mind is that there is a safety in this community, knowing there are others who understand and share similar experiences

 

This next question is about recovery, and we hope @Cathyblueknot  can provide some answers to earlier questions about recovery and trauma. 

 

Recovery is a journey and is non-linear, and living with the impact of trauma can feel like taking two steps forward, and one step back. We had some questions from members asking about coping with the ongoing impact of trauma, and the ways that it can come up again in future.

Question 4: In your role at Blue Knot, have you seen people recover from trauma and what are some of the things they do to support their recovery?

 

For those that want to share some of the things that you do to support recovery, you are also welcome to share these
