Living Anxious, Isolated, and Agoraphobic?
Join the Motherfucking Club
Have you been diagnosed with PTSD? Seeing or seeking traditional therapy?
Feeling like you need more support for those particularly shitty days?
​
When every minute feels like a personal hell, the 167 hours outside your therapist's office each week stack up.
Sometimes, you just need someone on your side, in that moment and beyond.
​
When it comes to living with trauma, anxiety, depression & more, social support matters.
Welcome to Traumatized Motherfuckers

Your diagnosis is just the beginning
Complex Trauma doesn't come with a handbook.
Instead, it rides with a custom-built posse of fucked up core beliefs and co-morbidities to make things really interesting.
Flashbacks and dissociative spells are awful... let's throw in some crippling anxiety, depression, and OCD.
Your brain and body will be screaming 24/7. You'll never sleep again. Doesn't that sound fun?
​
When you're feeling out of control of your brain and body, the last thing you need is to feel alone and ashamed.

​
Unfortunately, thanks to all the aforementioned bullshit, along with a predisposition for mistrust,
many trauma sufferers struggle to make meaningful connections.
​
In a real clusterfuck of cruel jokes, lack of secure relationships only promotes isolation, shame, and further mental illness.
Without the support and education necessary to first get a handle on your symptoms,
it's a struggle feeling stable enough to rewire your traumatized brain.
​

Isolation
Whether you're only a few steps along or miles down recovery road,
support is crucial for the long haul.
​
Rewiring your brain isn't easy.
It's even harder without people to share your successes with.
Or to call for help in a time of failure.
​
Connect with like-minded motherfuckers in your stage of recovery,
in your area and around the world, with your specific struggles.

Settle the stigma
Taking back "trauma" from snowflake stereotypes. We aren't victims and crybabies.

We're silent sufferers, approaching each day with courage, grit, and resilience.
