Have you tried to leave your relationship and can’t? Do you leave only to return back to the situation that you know is not good for you?
In this episode, we will be covering “Trauma Bonds” in detail. We will educate you on what they are but more importantly, we will give you some tools to help you begin to break that bond that holds you tightly in a toxic abusive relationship.
It’s not unusual for us to be stuck someplace, even trapped, and not even know it. No wonder it can be such a struggle to find ourselves.
One of the reasons why are the barriers of trauma bonds. Trauma bonds are very real and they’re also very tricky.
They can easily fool us into believing that we’re the problem, that we’re the one in the relationship who’s responsible for all the abuse.
To make things even more of a challenge, it’s hard for us to recognize that trauma bonds exist and that we’re actually in their clutches.
But here’s the good news. There are steps you can take and things you can do to make them go away. You can finally answer the question, “Why do I stay so long in this toxic relationship?”
Join us as we walk you through the 4 steps you can take to break a trauma bond.
