Bessel van der Kolk
“Communicating fully is the opposite of being traumatized.”
Bessel A. van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

Bessel van der Kolk
“Being traumatized is not just an issue of being stuck in the past; it is just as much a problem of not being fully alive in the present.”
Bessel A. van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

Bessel van der Kolk
“Long after the actual event has passed, the brain may keep sending signals to the body to escape a threat that no longer exists.”
Bessel A. van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

Sigmund Freud
“I think this man is suffering from memories.”
Freud, Sigmund

Bessel van der Kolk
“The traumatic event itself, however horrendous, had a beginning, a middle, and an end, but I now saw that flashbacks could be even worse. You never know when you will be assaulted by them again and you have no way of telling when they will stop.”
Bessel A. van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma
