Dissociation can happen to people who grew up in chaotic, abusive, or passive-aggressive homes and is common in CPTSD. In this throwback episode, we revisit an earlier recording where I explain why many children who have experienced trauma while growing up escape into fantasy or daydreaming, as a way to cope with their unsafe or uncomfortable realities.

Today is an exclusive and urgent interview live from the war in Gaza, with my dear friend Dr. Ahmed Seyham (@donseyam) from Doctors Without Borders. Dr. Seyham chose to stay behind in Gaza to save lives as a surgeon. Tragically, an explosion near his home later on injured his children and permanently paralyzed his wife. In this interview he reveals the truth, the welfare of children, and other information that may be hidden by the media.
