The Path to Recovery
Today, I cried. I wasn't planning on crying in my therapy session but isn't that how it always happens? It's never expected when you break down but suddenly you can't breathe, your anxiety is at max capacity and you feel like the last two years didn't even happen for a few minutes.

Every chance he got I was berated, verbally assaulted, ridiculed, called names and told he wished I were dead. It was never ending. My children were spoiled rotten brats and I had made them that way.

Understanding The Relationship Between Psychoneuroimmunology and Childhood Trauma : Why It Matters
Childhood psychosocial stressors can impact the development of the immune system, which can then affect the development of the brain and its long-term functioning due to the two-way relationship between the immune system and the brain. Psychoneuroimmunology of early-life stress can provide a novel framework for comprehending and treating psychopathology associated with childhood trauma, based on observational human studies and experimental animal models. Remarkably, several incidents involved once-healthy people who became mentally ill despite not having any physical injuries—the so-called "railway spine."
