The experiences we have as we grow up can impact who we are. Healing from what we went through is possible. Learning from what we went through is possible.

Please know that you do not have to "get over" what you went through but its important to move forward from the things that have happened. We are not our experiences.

You are allowed to not be okay. You are allowed to not love what you went through. But its important not to let your past experiences control your life or future. You deserve love and happiness 🥰. Click the link in our bio to learn about our services :).

Trauma can happen at any point during someone's life and it may or may not go on to impact them later in life. Childhood trauma occurs during a time when an individual is still developing and learning essential skills.

There are many possible causes of childhood trauma, which we will not delve into in this post but can be found in our full blog post here: https://chettiarcounselling.ca/blog/how-childhood-trauma-affects-your-adult-life

The long-lasting impacts of childhood trauma are some of the reasons why seeking support early is so important. Counselling can help one understand how their childhood impacted them and ways that they can reconcile the challenges they face.

Naturally increasing them by small amounts (like in the ways recommended here) is generally safe, but if you feel that you would like to increase them more or have a deficit, please contact your physician.

Gaming addiction has become increasingly more common mental health condition. Gaming addiction is a behavioural addiction characterized by excessive and compulsive use of a digital game that impacts their well-being and daily functioning.

Recovery from gaming addiction requires individuals specialized in addiction who have a comprehensive understanding of gaming addiction and can provide empathy and support. Psychotherapy can serve as a supportive tool to enhance overall mental health, promote healthier habits, and facilitate a deeper understanding of the factors driving the addiction.
