Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
Hello, welcome to the podcast of health and healing in the areas of addiction and abuse, with Michael. My passion and interest started with becoming aware that many of us have childhood traumas that we carry into our adult lives, but we didn't have them addressed or never acknowledged that we had an addiction or a mental illness. Some of the abuses, we suffered were slight or verbal that we just wrote off, other abuses were kept in secret for many years. Now we want to expose those lie-based beliefs, through tools and partnering with the Holy Spirit to help us heal those traumas and Illnesses to become whole. Hurt people hurt people, so we must seek ways to heal so that we can assist others in their healing processes. Disclaimer: * I am not a doctor or professional therapist. However, I am licensed and an ordained Minister, who's interest was piqued as it related to my personal journey and struggles with addictions and abuses that found their way into every aspect of my life unknowingly. God knows I'm a work in progress. Come along as we heal together.
Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
The Blame Game: Is it racism or justice?
The story of Tennessean Pamela Moses receiving a six-year prison sentence for submitting a form with incorrect information while trying to regain her voting rights begins with her past criminal record and ends with a judge who did not believe her.
Yes, she was on probation for a prior felony conviction, including a 2015 conviction for tampering with evidence. But she believed her probation had ended, a probation officer told her she was actually done with her felony probation, records show. The probation officer signed off on her certificate of restoration to vote.
Ms. Moses was charged with perjury. She was charged and sentenced to years in prison! There's so much more to this story, such as taxpayers' money, politics and Ms. Moses' family. This had to be traumatic for all involved in her life.
Donald Kirk Hartle, a white Republican voter, was charged with 2 counts of voter fraud in Las Vegas after he forged his dead wife’s signature to vote with her ballot. He was sentenced in November to one year of probation.
Traumatic you ask, a resounding yes! Is it racism or injustice? A resounding Yes to both!
Anxiety can trigger depression and other behavioral physical and mental health issues. It is especially hard if you are dealing with other personal, work, relationship, or family-related issues. It is okay to ask for help.
