As I've looked back on my life-changing healing journey, I noticed that in the beginning I was focused on what I now realize are external topics.
At the time, these worldly topics were fully integrated into my thoughts, my energy, my spirit. These topics are extremely important, life or death issues; so thus my mind because of my real-life PTSD, my mind had been fixated on these horrific topics that are beyond comprehension and beyond healing capabilities.
It was a survival mechanism to hyperfocus on what is dangerous to you, because therefore, you will be ready to fight and survive. Basic flight or fight response. But when you're in an environment where the danger never goes away, the survival mode becomes a part of your core. 
Healing for me as been discovering what is my own personal danger vs the world's danger. 

But okay, it's just been completely amazing as I look back on my first set of healing journey topics (rather than just venting, self-care, therapy) but actual inner healing...I notice that I myself, was not the main focus, but thankfully I am now.
