They create the pain. They are the only way to soothe it. Over and over and over. Trauma bond. You can survive. The light will shine again.

when i told him i thought we were trauma bonded and i explained ehat a trauma bond was he said 'oh babe, thats not a trauma bond. a trauma bond is when you go through something traumatic with someone and you bond over it. like an accident or something' 🙄 he knew what he was doing.

Jeez, thanks for putting this into words. I broke up with someone many years ago. I remember it physically hurt, I remember lying in bed and the tears flowing without making noise.

Trauma bonds let you in a place where you can’t even recognize yourself anymore and when you are out of them it takes time to recover and you start questioning why did you make those things and stayed for so long and it feels at some point a lot of shame with your past decisions and your past self but is a day to day work of healing and having compassion with your self❤️🩹

I thought trauma bond was when the partner is emotionally abusive to the point they make you think no one will find you desirable but them, that you blame yourself that they are not happy because they make you feel like a failure, so you're afraid to let go of the one person that "actually likes you" or "cares" about you, hence the word "trauma"?

CognitiveVault :
A real trauma bond can look confusing from the outside because the same person causing the emotional pain can also become the person you seek for relief from that pain. It’s the cycle that matters: hurt → fear/distress → reconciliation → affection/relief → hope → hurt again. That intermittent reinforcement can create an incredibly powerful attachment. You’re not necessarily holding onto who the person consistently IS—you can become attached to the relief, the good periods, the apologies, and the hope of who they keep promising to become. And that’s why “just leave” misses so much of the psychology. Sometimes the strongest urge to reconnect happens AFTER the person has hurt you. The intensity of a connection isn’t always evidence of intimacy. Sometimes it’s evidence of a cycle.

Going on almost 30 years! Been divorced for 3 1/2 years and still get sucks in. And now he's doing the work and becoming the person he showed me he was that caused that bond. This gift that keeps on giving. If we didn't have children together, I could do no contact, but it's not possible right now. It's incredible how forceful it is.
