YOU MIGHT BE A SUCCESSFUL SURVIVOR OF TRAUMA IF …


You keep getting back up every time life knocks you down

You do what needs to be done no matter how you feel

You are the kind of person who would get up in the middle of the night to go help a friend

You can read a room within seconds of walking in

You instinctively know when you can (or cannot) trust someone


You can tell when someone is getting upset, and you tell a joke to lighten the mood

You somehow just know when someone is lying to you

You are the first one to show up for work and the last one to leave

You offer to help out before being asked

You see what needs to be done and just do it

You cannot stand by and watch someone be mistreated


You go above and beyond what is expected

You are super vigilant about protecting the weaker and more vulnerable around you

You tend to overcommit, saying yes to just about everything you're asked to do

You refuse to let fear stop you from doing what you want to do

You’ve been broken open to the point that your goodness pours out to others

You see opportunity in every challenge

You notice the people who are often unnoticed and unappreciated

You often show creativity in work and life

You see the obvious choice in complicated decisions



You pay more attention to a person’s behavior than to their words

You are the best advocate for something you are passionate about

WHAT DOES BEING A SUCCESSFUL SURVIVOR
MEAN TO YOU?
