Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. If you're in a cycle of depression, stress, or anxiety, it's time to prioritize and care for yourself. When suffering goes unchecked it has a way of affecting your personality, your performance, and your relationships. You lose perspective, patience, and the ability to cope effectively. In time, negative thinking becomes a way of life.

Why do we sometimes dwell on the worst times of our lives or spend our time and energy reliving things we wish we could change? Events, decisions, relationships, feelings etc can all end up 'stuck' and continue to negatively impact us in a variety of ways. The umbrella term 'traumatic stress' encompasses both PTSD and it's symptoms when full criteria is not met. When experiences from the past continue to impact your present, whether it be flashbacks or the way you view your place in the world, it can be very difficult to change.
