Girl I was you once. Run. You will be okay. But don’t let it take anymore of your precious time away.

Run. Don’t look back. The nice stage is a sham. Asking questions about your day is the bare minumum. The problem is not you. It’s him. Please take care of yourself.

Trauma bonds with our abusers are SO painful to break. They never truly change. There is so much light beyond the darkness when you finally see that you’re worth more. Sending love to this girl from a fellow Katie 🤍

I kept myself in a trauma bond for 9 years (this week) and I’m almost 30. My entire 20s gone. Therapy & the right people, choose yourself. I wish every lovely girl the absolute best.

Intermittent reinforcement causes that trauma bond loop. You wouldn't stay long with the unkind version if there was no kindness. So they have to show kind behaviour to draw you back into the loop. It will sever you completely from yourself, until you don't recognise yourself anymore. You need support while working through this. Safety and stabilisation must come first before working through anything. Katie, I pray you get the help you need 🙏

Leave now. The abuse won’t stop. And it only gets worse. Most importantly love yourself

Oh sweet girl, you are worth love. It took me 38 years to leave. 7 attempts. My only regret is I didn’t leave sooner. All my love to you. ♥️

It’s weird because when you finally leave you forget about all the bad stuff and you start to reminisce on the good and you almost want that back so you can feel the good again. It’s so hard to just feel like you are enough by yourself and one day you will find someone who means the love they give you and it stays you don’t just get snippets of it 😔

The soothing and hurting pattern of the trauma bond is tough - I wish this caller freedom and self love

I'm just wanting to hug her and tell her it doesnt stop.
Loving yourself is the most difficult thing to learn after trauma bond.
