Welcome to the Flourishing With PTSD podcast - a podcast designed to help normalize conversations around mental health, specifically in the context of PTSD, also known as Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. I am not a medical professional or a therapist. I am, however, a trauma survivor who is here to share the highs, the lows, and everything in between that comes with living and healing from PTSD. Over the course of the podcast, you hear the three year journey from rock bottom to the highest point… it is proof that healing is possible. If I can do it, you can too!

Ladies! Finally, after submitting a poll to the Flourishing With PTSD community on Instagram, many agree that a topic that is constantly left alone is going to see a gynecologist after surviving a sexual assault or sexual abuse. After being told and conditioned to protect that private part of the female body for so long, then being attacked by someone else, and then to go to the doctor to get an exam where you’re supposed to ditch that kind of protective mindset? It’s all insanely overwhelming for anyone, but adding PTSD into the mix can make that all the more challenging, scary, and upsetting. I recently had an ER visit in relation to horrible period pain, and I thought this would be a great time to talk about “those” exams where a doctor is kind of “all up in your business.” The purpose of this episode is to normalize the struggles that many women struggle with, and how to communicate with doctors about your fears and still be able to make sure all is well down there. https://www.healthline.com/health/navigating-medical-exams-after-sexual-assault
