Child Abuse - #18533
For a long time, I have struggled with anxiety, trust issues, and difficulty forming close relationships, but I never fully understood why until I started reflecting on my childhood. Growing up, I experienced verbal insults, physical punishment, and constant emotional neglect from a close family member. At the time, I thought it was normal, but now as an adult, I realize that it was child abuse, and its effects are still affecting me today. I have read that child abuse can lead to long-term emotional trauma, stress disorders, and physical health problems, and I am starting to wonder if my chronic anxiety and low self-esteem are connected to my past experiences. I find myself overreacting to criticism, feeling emotionally disconnected, and struggling with deep feelings of unworthiness, and I don’t know how to heal from this. I also experience frequent headaches, digestive issues, and insomnia, which I read could be due to suppressed trauma and accumulated stress. Could my physical symptoms be linked to childhood emotional wounds? Does Ayurveda recognize emotional trauma as a Vata or Pitta imbalance, and what are the best natural ways to heal from past abuse and regain emotional balance? I have read that Brahmi, Ashwagandha, and meditation practices are beneficial for reducing stress, calming the nervous system, and promoting emotional healing—would these help in naturally overcoming the effects of child abuse? Are there any Ayurvedic therapies, herbal treatments, or mindfulness techniques that can help in releasing stored trauma and restoring mental peace? Since I prefer natural emotional healing methods, I am looking for Ayurvedic treatments that can help process past trauma, balance emotions, and promote inner peace naturally. Please provide detailed Ayurvedic insights on child abuse, its long-term effects, and Ayurvedic approaches to emotional healing.
