Simona's recovery from severe dysautonomia, insomnia, and C-PTSD
Simona Irwin shares her recovery and transformation story from severe dysautonomia, very severe insomnia, and complex PTSD. She provides insights for how PTSD can show up in complex chronic illness. She provides a template for working with all types of chronic symptoms. TIMESTAMPS below:
TIMESTAMPS:
0:01 Intro
1:13 Life before her perfect storm.
2:26 The final straw, what was compounding, and what was there from childhood.
2:58 Initial symptoms after medication.
4:13 What were her key symptoms as this didn't go away. Her heart rate at night was THIS high. I acknowledge overlap with ME/CFS.
6:03 Did she know this was her nervous system? Her health crisis 20 years prior. Her experience getting tests this time.
6:51 This is what her naturopathic doctor told her. WOW.
8:45 However, she still did this and this.
9:08 The FIRST brain retraining program she started with, DNRS. What helped. What DIDN'T.
12:46 The DARE response method, a game changer at the time.
15:50 The analogy she used for her symptoms / extreme sensitivities when describing it to others
17:17 Discovering Dr. Cathleen King & Primal Trust. The way it made her feel. She didn't want to go back.
19:03 More details on her self exploration & primal trust journey.
20:02 Key epiphanies from Primal Trust
21:42 Disclaimer - not meant to be self blame. These are automatic responses.
23:56 What this work does. Working with natural responses.
24:39 Recap and timeline
25:09 How PTSD and complex PTSD can show up in chronic complex illness journey
25:42 Simona goes into trauma from childhood and ACE scores
27:22 Someone without trauma may have dealt with the reaction like this. But this is how her nervous system related to it.
29:03 How the nervous system plays a huge role. Her opinion and experience on trauma and chronic illness. (Note: Nothing is medical advice. I invite all types of guests with different views.)
30:26 Realizing her brain was doing this. The 3 steps she took to address symptoms (a unique approach different than traditional brain retraining). How the tanglement of trauma and chronic illness started to unravel.
32:08 Liz recaps what Simona says.
32:24 Fear vs true intuition
34:01 Discovering the good intentions of protector 'parts'.
34:58 What are 'parts' and how can we work with them. A different and inclusive approach to brain retraining.
38:27 The difference between brain retraining and ignoring body to push through. The analogy Simona uses.
39:37 Choosing values over symptoms, while not pushing past limits. What that actually looked like for Simona.
41:36 At the end of the day, we don't want this.
42:08 Self compassion for the symptom of chronic fatigue (we both realize ME/CFS is way more than fatigue, but this was just an example). Simona makes a really powerful statement. Why I think this is so powerful.
43:43 Sometimes it's not good. Sometimes were in it. Honoring that. Where we can empower ourselves.
44:43 The benefit of community
45:45 I talk about how my audience primarily is recovering from ME/CFS, POTS, PEM, chronic fatigue syndrome. And ask for advise for people dealing with these conditions, based on her experiences.
46:10 Simona promise a template/algorithm that is applicable to all these conditions for bringing our nervous system to a new state. Such powerful wisdom.
49:38 The second piece Simona encourages people to explore.
50:22 Tools parents can start applying today going through complex chronic illness, PTSD, etc.
54:26 How Simona is helping others
55:58 Simona's POWERFUL final words of wisdom.
57:41 Parting words and goodbyes
OVERVIEW:
Simona Irwin was an executive in the organic food industry and busy mom when a reaction to a medication triggered very severe insomnia, severe dyautonomia (autonomic nervous system dysfunction), severe sensitivities, and a reemergence of complex PTSD (C-PTSD) stemming from childhood. She is now a coach and mentor in Primal Trust, a trauma-informed nervous system regulation program created by Dr. Cathleen King.

Disclaimer: Nothing on this channel is medical advice. I am aware not everyone with chronic illness has childhood trauma. I invited Simona on my channel because I hadn't yet done a deep dive on C-PTSD, and I'm so glad I did because her wisdom is truly extraordinary. I really feel this interview has powerful epiphanies for anyone experiencing nervous system dysregulation.

    @heatherrhodge2588 Před dnem

    I've watched half of this so far & already, SO MANY things she described are identical to my experience. The way (after getting to the point where you KNOW, "something HAS to be medically wrong with me").. That looking back, I also realized I'd been sick for as far back as i can remember.. Even as a young teen, I never understood why i couldn't seem to keep up with my friends..i didn't know why my energy levels were lower. The years and years of constant stress preceeding the point when I realized i felt too bad for there not to be a physical medical issue causing my issues. The having no energy to keep any friends.. Trying all sorts of supplements.. Having EVERY Dr treat me like I'm an idiot &/or blame it on depression. Also only ordering tests that weren't helpful & all came bk normal. None of my Drs have acknowledged the severity of my symptoms or how disabling they've honestly been and continue to be. After i told my current Dr, I believe I'm suffering from CIRS & tried explaining it to him, he insisted there's no way I've got inflammation in my body, cuz he's given me every test there is for inflammation & even autoimmunity & everything was normal. I proceeded to tell him some of the markers that needed to be tested for CIRS & he said he'd never even heard of some of em and that others were "just proteins" that "couldnt tell you anything".. I could keep on about the similar experiences, but I'm exausted alrdy from typing. The differences...ive been sick so long & to the point where there's no possible way i could do any kind of work, I can't afford to see a functional medicine Dr. I don't have family that's supportive.. Not for emotional support or financial support. They all think I'm crazy and just lazy, even after I've read them stuff about the illness. I have no one i can move in with to get outta this moldy environment. I see no light at the end of the tunnel. My plan is to print a research study article by Shoemaker & take it to my next appt.. It's one with all the tests they gave study participants, further broken down into which ones showed no differences in patients and controls, then the tests that did show differences. I'm also gonna print the basic info about cirs & hope 2 God he'll at least order some appropriate tests. If he does, i have no doubt my results will show how sick i am, then I need him to either write me an Rx for binders, or help me get disability. Hopefully both. After that, I'd (at some point) be able to feel a little better, enough to get a job and pay to see a shoemaker Dr, or if i cld get disability, then save my money and finally see a shoemaker Dr. I've taken the VCS test and failed. I've also got nearly all the symptoms... Not just the clusters, but individual symptoms. My entire neighborhood is VISIBLY moldy! I've never seen any place even close to as nasty as the houses look around here (as far as being just COVERED in mold!! Ive been tempted to try calling the EPA to come check it out, cuz it's so bad and i can't afford to buy even basic essentials, much less pay a mold specialist to look into this area or order the environionomics tests. I can't even buy razors 2 shave, a toothbrush, anything!! My mom's too busy babying my narcissistic brother, 18yrs older than me, who moved here to use her til she dies. She's terrified of him, so won't speak up, stand up for herself or disagree with him in any way. He literally keeps her debit card and spends whatever little she has left every mt after paying bills. Since he's been here, my mental health is much worse & my mom's health has steadily declined. She's 84 now & IDK how much longer she'll be around.. So i really gotta find a Dr to help ASAP, or I'll end up on the street with my young daughter in foster care or something. Since i mentioned my bro, I might as well add... The years and years of stress i spoke of earlier.. Was thx 2 him. I trusted him back in 2009, when i planned on filing bankruptcy due to medical bills with no ins. He convinced me that in court they could force me to sell my car & buy a cheaper one & offered to let me put my car in his name, so that didn't happen. Well, i trusted him at the time & had no clue of his narcissistic tendencies, so I put my car in his name the day i went and paid cash for it (following my previous car being totalled). Not even 3 mts later, he took over the car and left me with no transportation at all. I'd just had to quit my job as a hairstylist due to injuries from a wreck and move back in with my parents. I put every penny i had into that car, so i was broke with messed up credit. After he tore my car up, my parents let him "borrow" their car. Needless to say, he never gave it bk. All my dad rly wanted from him was for him to take them to church on Sundays, but he was too busy playing golf every Sunday. My dad said he'd prob never get to go to church again in his life. He passed away in 2016 & he was right, he hadbt been taken to church once. I HATE my brother, esp now, having to watch him take advantage of my mom like he does. She literally goes behind him & washes his dishes,bc he won't clean up after himself or even take out the trash!! I want to be able to get my daughter and i outta here so bad! I believe she's suffering from CIRS already. I know she IS depressed for sure. She cries at least once a wk bc she's so unhappy being stuck here with no vehicle. Oh yeah, he sold my dad's car b4 he moved here. He had a van when he moved in, but a month afterwards, he hit something and popped a tire. He never bothered getting it fixed & has left the van sitting out there, not paying taxes on it or even considering getting it bk on the road for 4yrs or more.

    Wow this was a awesome interview ❤️🙌🦄 was holding onto every word 🙏 super grateful if liz or karden could answer : if youve been taught brain retraining and bee doing it dilligently for ages and have plateaued after recoveringmaybe 50% with it(yes i understand from thus convo that bottom up approach may now need to be intergrated) but say still do anxiety of say going on a walk or something and we do a brain retraining technique or brain rehearsalof it going well and can get the emotional and physical/somatic sensations up of a great past walking experience, ill come out of the visualization and feel good or confident for a few seconds /minutes but then notice the anxiety or indecision about doing the walk or how enjoyable its gonna be come up again-obviously there is like a deep belief that im still fragile /have to be careful /might not go that well and not sure how to resolve this belief while still experiencing sensations: so like what do we do here in these situations of limiting beliefs/predictions or i guess old traumatic feelings coming up? Because obviously theres something not shifting underneath thats creating this continued response even when often walks might go ok or are even enjoyable ?Hope this question makes sense and so incredibly grateful for a answer 🙏

  • @lisabennett1253
    @lisabennett1253 Před 2 měsíci

    Interesting she mentioned groups. I too am too empathetic (and I do believe you can overdo that empathetic stuff). When my husband died suddenly people were saying "Ooh! There are lots of groups for that!" I tried it and it was awful! I was not only grieving myself but also for them. I had to get out of that. My question is, I wonder what percentage of us are overly empathetic and have taken on other people's pain along the way? I know now that I had my own trauma and took on other people's crap too.

    • @HealwithLiz
      @HealwithLiz Před 2 měsíci

      Yes, I used to feel everyone else's feelings, and I'm still an empathetic person, but I think this journey made me realize that it's not good to carry/feel/solve everyone's burden and the best thing I can do is just take good care of myself so I can show up for myself and those that I love. I realized this after I got way too involved with advocacy groups and then had setbacks. I also started to get into Abraham Hicks books at the time, which was more about aligning with what you want to feel (rather than fighting against what's wrong).

    • @HealwithLiz
      @HealwithLiz Před 2 měsíci

    @cfsrecover Does the program use visualization at all? Is the brain rewiring simply just telling ourselves we are safe? I have a hard time because when symptoms arise (and there are many), my thoughts go to all the dark narratives of what this could be (it's Lyme! Mold! Drug injury! Treatment resistant anxiety!) and it's hard to get calm. How to break those patterns of behaviour?

In the context Suzi was referring to, it's likely she was recognizing a pattern, thought, or behavior that was based in fear, reminding herself that it was her nervous system, taking steps to calm her nervous system, and redirecting her attention on something positive. There are different programs that have different approaches. Some are more trauma based than others.

    I always hear people saying acceptance and giving in is the key to recover but then is never really explained what it means practically and emotionally?

    i understand the desire to edit to make the dialogue flow more naturally and be more digestible but it very slightly takes away from the natural pacing involved in storytelling thank you for your video and channel

    Thank you. Brilliant insights. Yes, I will communicate more with my body and relax. I've been sick for 52 years. Eight years of treatment. I'm so tired. Visualization. Intuition

    Hay Dan!!!!! Dan is the man! Yes, I did his program ANS Rewire and it was AWESOME! Very smart, very easy, very practical, and very well-paced.His book is also great! Included in it is information for a multi-faceted approach for relief.I still use his techniques and knowledge for all or any ANS problems. It's a great plan for our whole lives not just when we are severely stuck! I owe a lot to him and I am very grateful to him! I know at first it may be hard to really grasp that what he is saying could be true and that it could be that easy, but what he is saying is true! Trust him he KNOWS! Start here or finish here either way it's a win win! Love, peace, and healing to all! And in the words of Dan: Make every choice your best choice! Ava

    Thank you so much for this fantastic, mindful and compassion-filled video. I am coming up to my one year marker with ME/CFS made so much worse by C-PTSD from having a stroke at 15 years old (yes, you heard that correctly...15!) This all became reactivated (I had previously done an EMDR programme) when my symptoms kicked in last year because not everyone knows that PTSD is a relapsing condition so I've needed to keep an eye on it. Again, so inspired by this and very grateful x

      Hi Steve, I really appreciate you taking the time to leave this really kind comment. I appreciate you! Oh wow, that must have been extremely scary to go through as a teenager. Thanks for sharing your experience with PTSD to let others know they are not alone. Sending support and healing vibes.

    I had also insomnia like this. I had days were i was awake for 2 days. And when i slept for 1 hour my mind was still awake. They gave me the highest dose of anxiety and sleeping pills. They had zero effect. After 3 weeks i was begging the doctors for anesthesia...somehow this got better. And after my pregnancy it corrected...
