Taming Emotional Flashbacks - From Hijacked to Healing | CPTSD Podcast
In this episode, we explore the challenging world of EMOTIONAL FLASHBACKS - those moments when you suddenly feel like a terrified child rather than a functional adult, overwhelmed by feelings disconnected from your present reality. Gregory dives into the NEUROSCIENCE behind these invisible ambushes, explaining why they differ from traditional flashbacks portrayed in media. Learn practical GROUNDING TECHNIQUES that go beyond basic advice, discover how your NERVOUS SYSTEM responds during these episodes, and hear inspiring COMMUNITY STORIES of people who've learned to navigate these overwhelming experiences.

Key Takeaways
• Emotional flashbacks are emotional states from childhood trauma without visual memory components • Your nervous system responds exactly as it was programmed to by developmental trauma • Recognizing "this is a flashback" creates space between you and the overwhelming experience • Healing isn't about eliminating triggers but changing your relationship with being triggered • Community support plays a crucial role in making progress on this healing journey

What You'll Discover
• How emotional flashbacks differ from traditional flashbacks portrayed in media • Scientific research validating the neurobiological basis of emotional flashbacks • Practical grounding techniques like the 5-4-3-2-1 sensory awareness exercise • Real stories from community members who've made progress managing flashbacks • How developing a "compassionate witness" perspective can transform your experience

Resources Mentioned
• "The Body Keeps the Score" by Bessel van der Kolk • Pete Walker's work on emotional flashbacks and Complex PTSD • Journal of Traumatic Stress (2018) study on non-visual flashback components • Dr. Stephen Porges' Polyvagal Theory on autonomic nervous system responses • Frontiers in Psychology (2020) meta-analysis on trauma treatment approaches

Next Episode Preview
Next week's episode will tackle social anxiety in CPTSD, exploring how hypervigilance affects social interactions with a special guest who specializes in trauma-informed social skills coaching.
