So I’ve recently begun intensive counseling and have been diagnosed with C-PTSD as a result of trauma from childhood. This has taken a huge emotional toll and I’ve noticed my recovery is awful from weight training. I usually train 4 times a week (almost entirely compound movements, focusing on powerlifting) and engage in a lot of other activity. I’ve done so for a little over a year now and never had an issue till now. I’ve gotten sick 4 times in less then two months, which is entirely irregular for me. Especially considering I’m only 20 and rather healthy, I find it hard to believe weightlifting would have an effect. But could weightlifting be hindering my mental recovery and hormonal balance? At least during this time of recovery?
I ask simply cause I know weight training is a huge physical toll long after each session. With emotional trauma, various factors can oppress your immune system. do the two goals of emotional stability and weightlifting conflict at the moment?
