Just Get Over It – Part 2 – Healing Childhood Trauma in Adulthood

June 6, 2022 by Michael Skinner

Hi folks,

Some more thoughts and resources to counter the hurtful phrase – Just Get Over It – Part 2.

Also address the maligning labels placed upon trauma and abuse survivors.

Sorry for the technical glitch of the smaller screen. Will resolve to fix that going forward.
