In my journey there have been many hard lessons. Many lessons I never wanted to learn. Many things I've never wanted to face. Betrayal Trauma is one of those things I never knew existed. But when I read about it I feel like someone has had a hidden camera inside my mind and heart.
Navigating Betrayal Trauma has been hard for me. My emotions will be all over the place. I doubt myself to make decisions. I doubt that I will ever feel love again. I don't believe that healing can ever happen. Then it seems the pendulum swings far the other way and I do feel hope. I do have faith. I do believe that healing will happen.
In the messy, mixed up parts of this swinging pendulum I have had to learn how to process my feelings. Which ones to let pass and which ones to hold on to.
One technique that I am learning more about is Detaching With Love. I've heard that phrase countless times in support groups, books and counseling. I don't have it down yet, but I have found a resource that is helpful:
I haven't found a magic wand to make it all go away yet. So as I continue down the path of healing and recovery I watch for things that really make a difference. The wisdom from this site did for me. I hope it can help you too as you click on that link above and access Heavenly help from above too.
We can do this!
