Breaking Free from Self-Punishment: Why You Punish Yourself & How to Finally Stop (Ep. 014)

For many people, shame doesn’t just stay in our thoughts. It turns into a pattern of self-punishment. We carry the weight of what happened or what we believe we did wrong, and somewhere along the way, we begin to feel like we deserve to suffer for it. In Episode 014 of A Door of Hope, Kay and Kerry talk about how this cycle forms, how to recognize it in your own life, and why it can be so hard to let go of. They explore the connection between shame and the need to punish ourselves, and how we can finally break cycles of self-punishment and self-sabotage. About the Hosts: Kay Tolman and Kerry Hansher are both survivors of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA). Beginning in childhood, the ritualistic trauma they endured led to a long and difficult journey toward healing, marked by struggles with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and dissociative identity disorder (DID). Through many years of walking in healing and restoration with the Lord, Kay and Kerry have found freedom—and now dedicate their lives to helping other survivors who have been ignored, shamed, or ridiculed. Using the freedom God has given them, they offer hope, understanding, and practical support to those navigating this deeply complex and often misunderstood trauma.
