If you find yourself...
- Unable to maintain healthy relationships
- Attracted to unavailable people
- In a state of romantic infatuation with someone you can’t have
- Having difficulties trusting others
These can be symptoms of relationship trauma.
Many people might think of trauma as this huge event such as a car crash or war, of course, they are traumatic events no doubt, but in the therapy world, the definition of trauma is much wider than this.
Trauma can be defined as anything that’s emotionally overwhelming for your brain to cope with at the time and, therefore left unprocessed. When your brain doesn’t understand, it stays stuck, that is when repetitive relationship patterns can occur.
