Darkest Days - My Trauma Bond
from Sevens Hosted by Shannon
New Years Eve is sort of an interesting anniversary for me, if you get to the end of this episode you will know why. The end of the story is worth hearing. I spent 5 years in an abusive Trauma Bonded relationship with a narcissist. I was on a roll talking about my alcoholism, thinking I was going to continue along the same thread while I was still holding it, when this reached out for my attention. So instead of diving into what functional alcoholism looked like for me, which I will hopefully address next time, if that is the divine timing of it all, I spend this episode telling one of my darkest stories. There were many rock bottoms throughout this time, a lot of pain, and a systematic tearing down of everything I thought I knew to be me. My confidence, sense of self, self esteem, my friends, my family. Everything stripped down until there was nothing but me and my relationship. Sensitivity warning for those who have been emotionally or verbally abused, felt trapped, felt hopeless in love, life and addiction, and those who have dealt with rage issues and narcisists.
