Pre-Birth Trauma

Within the past several weeks, I have received a number of encouraging comments and positive feedback from a talk I was allowed to give while at my former facility...

The talk, which was filmed, is titled "In His Own Words." The film is over two hours in length and has been divided up by the producer into nine different segments.

And in one of these segments is my talk on the subject of my adoption and the effects it had upon me. Of special focus was my discussion on the subject of "Pre-Birth" trauma. This being how a child, still in the womb and in development, can be affected for either good or bad by various external stimulus and events.

This is something of a fairly new field, and more evidence is being found to support this every year. More is happening while a child is being formed in the womb than previously thought.

So in the film I spoke about various trauma I had to experience before I was born. And I also spoke about being told when I was a little child that my mother died while giving birth to me, which I later learned was untrue. Still, believing the lie, and thinking I may have somehow caused her death, helped to set me on a course of self-sabotaging and self-destructive behavior patterns, and an obsession with suicide and death, all of which extended well into adulthood.

This is all I wish to discuss about the film at this time.
