The Hardcore Therapist 83.5- How do I know if I’m in a trauma bond or a healthy relationship?
from The Hardcore Therapist · host Sarah
Send us Fan MailA trauma bond is when you’re deeply attached to someone who’s hurting you — emotionally, physically, or psychologically — and it’s that cycle of pain, then love-bombing, then pain again that makes you stick around. You’re basically bonded through repeated betrayal and emotional chaos. It’s that feeling of 'I know this is bad for me, but I can’t walk away.'Key signs:You rationalize bad behavior constantly.You feel addicted to the highs and lows.You feel drained, not energized, after being with them.Your gut says 'get out,' but your heart says 'maybe it'll change.'There’s an uneven power dynamic — you’re walking on eggshells, they're walking free.It’s NOT love. It’s survival mode dressed up like love.Support the show
