Have you ever found yourself in a cycle of leaving an unhealthy relationship only to return, feeling trapped and unable to break free? This phenomenon, known as trauma bonding, is one I know well from my time with my ex-husband, but also stemming from my relationship to my father.
In this episode, we delve into:
- What is trauma bonding and how to recognise it
- How trauma bonding affects all types of relationships, not just romantic ones
- The negative impact it can have on your self-perception
Trauma bonding can evoke feelings of frustration and vulnerability, often leading to a sense of powerlessness. Together, we explore the root causes, identify potential perpetrators, and discuss strategies to overcome trauma bonding once and for all.
