Juliana : Trauma history J's went through. - "[L202003051338: Trauma disrupts the person worldview, and their sense of control of what happens in their life.](evernote:///view/463671/s5/e63a3883-4331-48aa-827d-b46100e7b6f1/e4d9289e-90fe-0f31-de29-1fe2324165a6/)
- _Trauma is related to sense of control. When a person experience trauma, they experience a lost of control._
- [Book Notes - The Body Keeps the score](evernote:///view/463671/s5/f98a7d14-fd7c-1ee2-798d-566b2dc6a688/57ba5125-cfd0-4795-9c56-4f9115b91ae9/)
- Victims of trauma feel emotionally numb, unable to connect with people.
- Trauma causes one to lost trust in self and others. Become closed up.
Parent-ification
- Cognitive is older
- Emotion is arrested (related to Trauma)
### Worker reflection
- Similar, feeling that she is not good enough. Taking on rescuer role. Making sure there is harmony at home.
- Blaming younger one, resentment, for not having to take care of family problem.
- Parallel - it's always someone wrong.. it's ME or the patient's wrong.
Then what is right?
Triangle when we become rescuer role -- we also persecutor and victim.Ā How to get out of this triangle. What are we enforcement/enabling when we always rescue. ^77a77f
### Self- In relation to Patient
- What is your role AS A CM
### What is the greatest fear if you understand the patient and family. What is it about this family that is holding you back?
Our work is reparenting patients.
- On one hand, you want to move forward to trust,
but there is also the need to feel safe.
All creatures have only these two needs: For closeness/ Connection, and protection of self in face of threat.
- Anger bring distance. Sadness, pain draws people in.
That's why there is a ding-dong.
**Parent's critical Voice**
- Even if father already passed on, still need to engage father's voice through patient. To help patient integrate, and make peace with those critical voice.
**Helping patient to trust herself. First step of establish trust. Autonomy goes back to her. And we encourage the patient by supporting her.** **Restoring the sense of control, and trust in herself.**
"Safety is in the presence of connection of self and others. Not in the absence of threat"
She is rejecting herself.
