Moving Forward Values

Not silver-lining — clarification

TherapistAssist logo

Post-trauma meaning-making — not silver-lining, but values clarified by what happened. What matters more to you now that would not have without it?

What I know now that I didn't before
Values that have sharpened
What I refuse to accept as normal anymore
How I want to live forward

Not silver-lining

Trauma doesn't 'happen for a reason.' Meaning is something you make afterward — not something the trauma delivered.
