Surviving the Emotional Effects of Sexual Trauma

Surviving the Emotional Effects of Sexual Trauma

by Carrie Collins-Fadell Every year in the United States, an estimated 470,000 women are sexually assaulted. Sadly, that number is rising and likely even higher as assaults often go unreported and uncounted.

  • I was only 6 months out from my Traumatic brain injury  when Robin Williams took his life. It hit me really hard because I had been thinking a lot about suicide myself. 

I was in SO much physical pain and doctors kept telling me nothing was wrong and to give it more time. I just wanted the pain to stop. 

Doctors know so little about brain injury, and many of the things they say to patients can be damaging. 

People with a brain Injury are 10x more likely to have suicidal ideation, and 3x more likely to act on those thoughts. 

Please know there are doctors who DO know how to help you ... no matter how far out you are. There is always hope! 

Yoga played a critical role in my recovery. Due to all the physical injuries I could only do a handful of poses, but I did those poses every day for a few minutes. Yoga gave me purpose each morning. Over time, I was able to do more poses and start to explore my body again. 

It literally took me YEARS to get some of my range of motion back, but I never stopped. I never lost faith in yoga as a healing modality — not only physically but mentally and spiritually as well. 

I love teaching yoga to other survivors, and empowering them on their journey towards greater well being.

  • When I was in high school I had dreams of working for a magazine ... I already knew I would be a photographer and writer so it seemed like a natural fit. School counselors thought I had my head in the sky and discouraged me. I honestly can’t even remember what they suggested I should pursue. 💕

I went to college as a Mass Comm major with a Photojournalism emphasis. I didn’t do well in college so instead I dropped out and got married. That lasted a few years and I eventually went back to school. ⭐️ 

I graduated with a BA in Organizational Leadership which taught me a lot about how to be a leader and a visionary. 💥

Fast forward a decade or so and I fell on the ice, landing full force on the back of my skull. I began a journey unlike anything I could have ever imagined — both in bad ways and good ways. 💚

A few years ago, my neighbor and friend who publishes a children’s cooking magazine suggested I start a brain injury magazine because there wasn’t really anything out there for the community. 🤯

The voices from the school counselors started chatting inside my head. Not to mention the fact that the only magazine experience I had was photographing cover stories for Savvy MN Magazine and a few fashion spreads for another local mag. 🤷‍♀️ A few years passed by and the thought continues to percolate in my silly little head. When all of a sudden I woke up one day and said “I’M GONNA DO IT!” — and here I am — Editor-in-chief of the @thebrainhealthmag 🦋

It’s been an incredible journey and the first three years have flown by! 😍
