Is It Love or a Trauma Bond? How to Tell the Difference

What if the rush you think is love is actually your nervous system trying to get relief from pain? It could be trauma bonding, where intense emotional highs and lows, fear, inconsistency, or manipulation create a powerful attachment that feels like love… but isn’t. In this episode, I explore the difference between real love and trauma bonding. I share my own experience of a trauma bonding relationship as well as "Eric's" story, a rollercoaster relationship that went from soul mate promises,  accusations and threats to leave, to the high of making up and comebacks that kept him stuck in what he thought was love.I lay out a clear distinction between real love and trauma bonding along with 7 questions to ask yourself to help you decide.
