Are you constantly wondering what the hell is wrong with me? Why don’t I trust people? Why do the same things keep happening over and over again? Is there something wrong with me? Why don’t I ever feel like I’m enough? HOW DO I CHANGE MY LIFE?! Then it’s time to grab your coffee, or wine, or whatever you need and curl up on the couch with these real and inspiring conversations with Teri Anderson of Digging Through Dominoes. Don’t be surprised if you see glimpses of yourself as Teri shares her very real (sometimes hard to believe) stories. From childhood neglect to abusive relationships, she’s seen her fair share of hardships and KNOWS the feelings of unworthiness, hopelessness and despair. But she fought her way through to where she is today – fighting the good fight to live a good life, learning about herself and how to love herself. More importantly, she wants to share that hope and optimism that she’s gained through enduring the hardest of times. In a world where depression and anxiety are growing, and PTSD is finally being recognized, we all need a safe place to go and be heard and understood. Digging through Dominoes is that place. It’s the place to be if you’ve experienced any sort of mental, physical or emotional trauma. It’s a safe haven that welcomes you in, but isn’t afraid to talk about what hurts the most. The stories may be hard but they are REAL and there is hope at the end of the day! Teri’s mission is to let you know that you’re safe, you’re definitely not alone, and to never give up because there is always hope!

Teri's experience in a behavioral unit in Portland, Oregon. One morning she found herself in the behavioral unit of Adventist Hospital in Portland, Oregon.
To illustrate, Teri tells her personal story of how a series of traumatic events packed into a short amount of time led her to a breaking point that ended up with her in a behavioral unit.
Her story details the how the desire to have control and find a moment of peace in a chaotic life led her to having a feeling of not having any control and the fear that accompanied it.
This is a story that mirrors so many of the experiences that people face on the daily basis but don’t get talked about. Teri’s hope is that her sharing her personal story will allow you to see that you are not alone in your struggles.
The night before she had just wanted to sleep, to get off the merry-go-round of her life.
When she awoke she had no idea where she was and when she realized she was in the behavioral unit, she had no idea how she was going to get out.
This began Teri's journey to understanding, being misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder 2, and finding her true diagnosis of C-PTSD.
It’s not easy living anxiety, PTSD, depression, or trauma of any kind. It’s even more difficult doing it alone. This podcast is here to show you that YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
