The Hidden, Dirty Secret of Trauma and Abuse!!!
Do you feel trapped? Overwhelmed?
Do you understand, deep down inside, that you deserve better, but you just can’t seem to walk away from your abusive partner who has turned your world into one of chaos, pain, and fear?
Then you likely have formed a traumatic bond with the person holding you hostage in a toxic relationship.
A traumatic bond is a physiological hold that your abuser has created. This bond, built by your normal reactions to the highs and lows of your abusive relationship, affects your self-esteem, your confidence, and your very identity. This bond makes it extremely difficult for you to escape the trauma that haunts you.
Are those invisible strings keeping you from living a happy, healthy life? To help you understand the traumatic bond that has been formed between you and your abuser, TRAUMA BONDING, tells you the signs of the bond, how the bond is formed, and ways to break the bond.
How do you cut those strings -- permanently? Several different types of therapy are discussed, such as eye movement desensitization and restructuring, cognitive behavioral therapy, and other types of therapy that are less traditional, such as equine assisted therapy and art therapy. These therapeutic methods, which can be used in conjunction with medication, can help you become more self aware, and replace your negative self talk and maladaptive thoughts and behaviors with positive skills that can help you develop a healthy relationship with yourself and the world around you.
Traumatic bonds are strong and hard to break. However, you are stronger. TRAUMA BONDING will be your guide to finding the you that was lost to the fear and pain that you’ve endured ♥ ♥ ♥
