When we say the recovery journey is not linear, we mean that healing doesn’t unfold in a straight, predictable line. It moves in waves, progress, pauses, plateaus, and setbacks, all of which are a natural part of recovery.

Trauma can change the way the brain functions, and this naturally creates challenges. As part of healing, the brain often needs to rewire and build new neural pathways. This means we may need to learn new strategies and coping skills, and it takes time for these to become integrated. Developing greater self-awareness is also an important part of recovery, because it helps us recognise when we’re becoming stressed, approaching overwhelm, or needing to take steps to keep ourselves safe. It also helps us to have self-compassion and patience which are both great recovery companions to have.

Recovery isn’t linear, and it takes time. Everyone’s process will look different because we are all unique. We approach trauma recovery with our own histories, strengths, vulnerabilities, and life experiences. Those differences shape how PTSD develops and how healing unfolds. It’s natural to see similarities in what people go through, both in the trauma itself and in the recovery journey, but each person’s healing will still be a unique experience. That’s why it’s important to try not to compare our healing journey with another person’s. Comparison can create pressure or shame, when in reality, every nervous system heals at its own pace and in its own way. Each person’s goals, pace, and definition of “better” are shaped by their history, their nervous system, their environment, their ambitions, desires and what safety and stability mean to them. Recovery isn’t a single path — it’s a deeply individual process. Recognising this allows each person to focus more fully on their own recovery journey, and for many, it may be the first time they consciously choose a direction rooted in wellbeing.

For me, the recovery process took a tremendous amount of effort, and I often felt exhausted and overwhelmed. There were times when it felt like I needed to take “recovery breaks from recovery” just to catch my breath. It was the first time I had ever truly prioritised my mental health and allowed myself to build my life from that foundation. I realised that my wellbeing had to be the starting point, nothing else could be stable until that was in place.
I felt fragile, so I had to connect more deeply with myself and pay attention to what was happening in my body and the thoughts moving through my mind. Noticing subtle changes helped me make small adjustments toward my wellness goals. I had to learn new skills, strategies, and techniques to support these gentle improvements, and each step required patience and self compassion.
At times I felt like I was making progress, other times I felt I was stagnant not moving in any direction and it was as if I was on a plateau. Sometimes I felt I was going backwards, like relapsing or regressing and now I can see in those times I was actually still moving forward and that that is part of the recovery.
The traumatic event is stressful, and the work of healing can also feel stressful, so having a caring support network makes a huge difference. Friends who could walk alongside me helped me get through the harder parts. Peer support was especially helpful for me. Being around people with lived experience gave me a level of understanding, comfort, inspiration, and hope that I couldn’t find anywhere else. They celebrated the little wins and the small increments of progress with me, and that alone made the challenges of recovery a lot easier for me.

With the experience of my “new” nervous system, I’ve had to learn how to reintegrate back into life using these new practical strategies and insights. This is an ongoing process, and I now know each step, no matter how big or small, sometime seemingly backwards and other times forwards, all continues to build resilience. There were times I felt stuck in limbo like sitting on a plateau halfway between two destinations. That feeling was frightening until I learned that plateaus are a natural part of healing. There were also times when a setback would hit, and it often felt like everything I’d gained had disappeared, and now I realise they’re not failure; they’re all part of the process. Recognising this made the journey feel less overwhelming and more human.

For me, this took time to understand. Most of my progress happened in small increments, and I had to learn how to recognise, value, and celebrate those tiny steps. I eventually understood that I could be doing well and struggling at the same time.

After going through this cycle a few times, I started to see that even when I felt like I was going backwards, I was still moving forward overall. That realisation helped me to accept the nature of the recovery process.

THURSDAY – DIFFERENT TYPES OF GROUNDING TECHNIQUES –22nd OCTOBER 2026. PTSD Peer Support Online meet-up start times for each states / region are listed below.
8:00am NSW-VIC-TAS-ACT,
7:00am QLD
7:30am SA,
6:30am NT,
5:00am WA.
Meet-ups run for one hour.

Grounding is about using different tools, sensations, and actions to help bring you back into the present moment, especially when the mind or body has shifted into distress or overwhelm. It’s a way of gently re orienting yourself to now, using whatever anchors work best for you.

There are several different types of grounding techniques, and it can be helpful to understand the many ways we can bring ourselves back into the present moment. It is important to know that with grounding techniques what works well for one person may not be as effective for another. Also, some grounding techniques may work better in different situations. Discovering this was a turning point for me. Once I realised grounding is personal, not prescriptive, I made the decision to explore as many approaches as I could to see how they worked for me.

It’s a personal journey, you find what techniques feel comfortable for you, what reconnects you, and what helps your nervous system settle. The more options you try, the more grounding tools you can call upon when you need them.

These techniques can be helpful tools, but they’re not a guaranteed solution. There will be times when they don’t feel effective, and that’s a normal part of the process. It’s okay to pause, adjust, or choose a different strategy that feels right for you in the moment. These are skills, and like any skill, they take practice to become familiar and comfortable. As we learn more about the current limits of our nervous system and how those limits show up in our bodies, we can start to detect early signs of overwhelm and apply these techniques more effectively. Sometimes a combination of strategies works better than one on its own. At other times, the environment may simply be too intense causing sensory overload, heightened stress, or external pressure can make it harder for any tool to land. None of this means you’re failing; it’s your nervous system responding to what’s happening around you.

Some examples of different techniques are:
SENSORY Grounding: Engaging the 5 senses - Smell, Taste, touch, hear and see.
MENTAL Grounding: Count backwards from 100, listing category's of things, orienting statement – I am in my home on the Gold Coast, I am on my couch and I am safe. You can also describe things in the room that you can see.
SOMATIC Grounding: Tai Chi, yoga, progressive muscle relaxation, breathwork anchors, body scan
ENVIRONMENTAL Grounding: Changing locations, Nature connection, adjusting lighting
CREATIVE Grounding: Drawing, painting, photography, music, sculpture, writing,
RELATIONAL Grounding: Peer co-regulation, time with pets, asking simple present moment questions.
MEANING BASED grounding: Personal Mantra, values reminders, future event
EMERGENCY Grounding: cold stimulus like a cold shower or ice, strong sensory input like smelling essential oils, firm feet stomp in the grass, Orienting script like – “this is a memory, there is no current threat, I am safe”

Join us today as we chat about what grounding techniques work best for us. How we know when to apply them and times when we may have discovered they are not as effective.

TUESDAY – GRADUAL REINTEGRATION TO LIFE - 20th OCT 2026. PTSD Peer Support todays online meet-up start time is:
8:00am NSW-VIC-TAS-ACT,
7:00am QLD
7:30am SA,

Meet-ups run for one hour.

For some people who experience a traumatic event, it feels completely natural to isolate and withdraw from mates, social networks, and everyday life. I did the same. I didn’t feel safe, and pulling back became a form of self protection. My nervous system was so sensitive to noise, light, movement, and too much activity around me that even ordinary environments felt overwhelming. Withdrawing myself was the only way I knew to reduce that overload and try to feel some sense of safety again.

As I began to recover, I took a gradual, phased approach to gently reintegrating and re engaging with life. I had to consider my physical safety, my emotional capacity, and the level of support I had around me. Having a solid network of family, mates, and a therapist was incredibly helpful during this reintegration phase. I worked closely with my therapist to set realistic goals and to make sure I could recognise early signs of overwhelm, so I could use strategies to manage my emotions and regulate my nervous system.

My recovery buddies accompanied me as I returned to social events, in person appointments, and study. They encouraged me to extend myself safely and gave me control over my limits — including when I needed to leave. After social events, they spent time helping me de stress, and together we talked through what went well, the challenges I faced, and what I might want to try next time. This gentle supported reintegration back into life helped me rebuild resilience and confidence.

To prevent self-isolation, I tried to do all my doctor and psychology appointments in person once a fortnight. By going in person to these appointments, I had to get showered and dressed, get myself out of the house and into town. These outings involved several other interactions along the way. I found this challenging, but I knew it was good for me to get my brain working, break my isolation and it would extend my window of tolerance. The window of tolerance is a persons capacity for managing stress without becoming overwhelmed. My overwhelm limit was drastically reduced when I developed PTSD to a crippling extent. Extending my capacity to manage stress took a lot of practice and gently exposing myself to things like the supermarket, cafes, shopping centres, theatre shows, parties and noisy or bright environments.

This was all part of me rebuilding my life. I started meeting people for coffee at their place or having people over to my place. Then I started meeting people at cafes, attending friends’ events, going to watch comedians in small venues, then attending larger events in stadiums. None of this felt comfortable initially but it gave me an opportunity to practice my grounding and self-calming strategies. It also helped me to get familiar with my stress limits and when to introduce coping strategies and when to leave and go home for quiet reset. As I recovered, I took jobs working casually a couple of days a week and I enrolled to study a subject that I found interesting. Opportunities to travel came up so I travelled, I started my own business in a field I had never worked in.

Most of it I didn’t want to do because I felt anxious, and I was acutely aware of how many skills I normally rely on weren’t available to me with PTSD like confidence, clear thinking, social ease, and the ability to stay grounded under pressure. Those capacities were there, but I couldn’t reach them. Even so, I knew that recovery and resilience would only come from gently stretching my comfort zone.

MONDAY - WELLNESS RECOVERY PLAN FOR THE DAY – 19th OCT 2026. PTSD Peer Support Connect online meet-up start times for each states:
8:00am NSW-VIC-TAS-ACT,
7:00am QLD
7:30am SA,
6:30am NT,
5:00am WA.
Meet-ups run for one hour.

Today’s meet-up topic is about having a Wellness Recovery Plan which can help us gently organise our day and the week ahead so we’re not carrying everything in our heads. It gives us space to notice what’s important, prepare for any appointments or commitments coming up, and intentionally weave in self-care and the strategies that support PTSD recovery. The aim isn’t to do everything perfectly, it’s to create a simple, supportive structure that helps us move through the next 24 hours and the next seven days with self-care as our foundation to gently improve our resilience.

Because PTSD can affect concentration, memory, and other cognitive functions, it can be helpful to include small daily activities that re engage the brain, things like puzzles, word games, gentle problem solving tasks, or creative exercises. These can support the improvement of cognitive recovery over time. Another thing that is important to factor into our daily plans is emotional reset time after tasks that feel stressful or demanding. Allowing space to de-stress, and relax helps the nervous system to settle, reduces overwhelm, and makes it easier to move into the next part of the day with a more balanced pace. Intentionally taking this reset time supports the nervous system, builds a sense of safety, and strengthens self trust, all of which are essential foundations in PTSD recovery.

For me it has been really important to make sure my plan is achievable, and that it is also needs to be developed by me, for me. Before writing it I need to check-in with myself to assess what my capacity to achieve it might be today. For example: maybe I am feeling tired because I didn't sleep well, or am I feeling irritable, anxious or depressed, and for some individuals it might be what degree of physical pain they are experiencing today? If I am tired, I probably won't put things on my plan that require a certain degree of patience or focus. To help prevent becoming overwhelmed I don't put to many things on my plan. I just keep it simple and achievable. If I have had a good sleep and my I am feeling stable I can put a more challenging task or activity on my list if I want to.
This can be an opportunity to engage in a fun activity or approach a challenging task that can help me to build my resilience. The choice is always mine and I can change my plan if I need to as I go through the day. I approach each day with self-care as my priority and self-compassion. Healing takes time and it doesn’t happen in a smooth straight line. I learnt to adjust to the ups and downs of the day as they happened.

A Wellness Recovery Plan is not a test, so I can’t fail. It’s also not a “have to do” list, it’s simply a helpful guide I can have a go at following today. It reminds me of the strategies my therapist has suggested, and it supports me to move through the day with a simple, structured routine I can anchor myself to. The plan also gives me a sense of predictability and control, which can help reduce anxiety and stabilise my mood.

Because the brain’s job is to keep me safe and make decisions for survival, it naturally prefers routines that are predictable as the predictability helps the brain to relax. A plan provides that gentle structure. It offers a clear, familiar framework that helps both the brain and the body relax a little, making the day feel more manageable and less overwhelming.

If you have a therapist or treating health professional talk with them if you would like professional support developing your wellness plan. They are supporting you in your healing and they have many evidence based tools and knowledge to help develop one that fits you individually.

Join us this morning for support and encouragement from others with lived experience of PTSD, anxiety and depression and who understand. There are no expectation and no pressure.
