You Aren’t Crazy: The Neuroscience of Betrayal Trauma
from The Infidelity Recovery Podcast · host Jordan Apodaca - Infidelity Recovery Specialist
If you’ve ever felt like you no longer recognize yourself after being cheated on, this episode is for you. We dive into the neuroscience of betrayal trauma to explain why logic often fails when your survival program takes over. We explore the three main parts of this biological response: The Amygdala: Your internal "smoke detector" that becomes hyper-sensitive to every perceived threat. The Prefrontal Cortex: The "CEO" of your brain that gets locked out of the building when the alarm goes off. The Hippocampus: The "filing clerk" that drops the files, making past trauma feel like it's happening right now. Understanding these biological shifts is the first step toward stopping the self-judgment and finding your way back to safety. Ready to rebuild your sense of reality and find safety again? I work directly with clients to help them regulate their nervous systems and move forward. 👉 Book your Free Strategy Call here: https://jordanapodaca.com/#free-call --------------------------------------------------------------------- JJA Consulting LLC • Fully insured through Alternative Balance LLC • Based in Michigan • Sessions via Zoom • Confidential and results-based.
