As a 54-year-old man dealing with financial PTSD, it can be incredibly tough to navigate through the lingering effects of past financial trauma. The constant anxiety, fear, and stress can feel overwhelming at times. But I’ve come to realize that seeking help and support is not a sign of weakness, but a brave step towards healing. Talking to a therapist or joining a support group has truly helped me process my emotions and develop healthier coping mechanisms. It’s important to remember that healing takes time and patience, and it’s okay to take small steps forward. Engaging in self-care activities, such as meditation, exercise, and spending time with loved ones, has also been beneficial for me. Remember, you are not alone on this journey, and there is hope for a brighter future ahead.
