Summary

Pain has a way of keeping us in the dark, of making sure that we don’t know how to cope and heal properly. When it feels like there’s nowhere else to turn, it’s all too easy to fall into harmful coping mechanisms and patterns that may deal with our pain in the moment, but only make things worse in the long run. When Brittany Tinsley went through a painful season at a young age, this is exactly what happened to her. Unable to find anything else to make her feel better, Brittany discovered that, at least for a few moments, she could replace her greater emotional suffering with pain of a different kind. Years of dealing with self harm left Brittany scarred both emotionally and physically, but thankfully that’s not the end of her story. Brittany sits down with Davey to share some of her journey of healing and the wisdom she’s gained along the way. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
