Emotional Numbness: Common Symptoms for Child Sexual Abuse Survivors | Saprea

In this video, we discuss the topic of emotional numbness, what it is, and how it can affect adult survivors of child sexual abuse. Emotional numbness is a common symptom of trauma where a person may feel disconnected from their emotions or have difficulty experiencing feelings.

We explore the impact of emotional numbness on survivors of child sexual abuse, where it can make it difficult to process and express emotions related to the trauma, or have difficulty forming meaningful connections with others.

However, the good news is that there are ways to manage emotional numbness, and we discuss the importance of working with a mental health professional who can provide support and guidance through therapy. This can involve techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and other evidence-based approaches.

If you or someone you know is a survivor of child sexual abuse and struggles with emotional numbness, this video provides valuable information on what it is and how to manage it. We encourage you to watch and share with others who may benefit from this information. Remember, healing is possible, and seeking professional support can be a crucial step towards recovery.
