4:51Now PlayingLiving with PTSD and the Challenge of Self-Sabotage: Why Success Can Be A Trigger
Hawk discusses PTSD and the patterns of self-sabotage that can emerge even when life seems to be going well. He reflects on the paradox of success and happiness, and why these moments can sometimes invite the most difficult challenges.
Hawk focuses on the importance of internal vigilance—paying attention not only to the outside world but also to the emotions and thoughts that can quietly undermine progress. Drawing from personal experience, he explains how PTSD can create moments where the mind seeks chaos just as stability is achieved.
Through analogies to recovery and sobriety, Hawk highlights how ignoring emotional regulation can lead to setbacks and self-destructive behavior. He emphasizes that PTSD is not something that simply goes away but is a lifelong condition that requires awareness, self-regulation, and acceptance.
This conversation is a reminder for anyone living with PTSD—or supporting someone who is—that success and happiness bring their own challenges. Hawk shares his perspective on what it means to live with PTSD honestly, without denying the risks of self-sabotage, but also without losing hope.
