It takes only four days of intense contact with an abuser to develop Trauma Bonding/Stockholm Syndrome.
Do not be surprised why you find leaving so difficult.
The more you know the easier it will be for you leave as you see through the tactics and dynamics.
It is not love. It is all about power and control. He does not love you, he never did, he never will.
They don’t love us it’s all one big lie
They are conn artists .. they feed of us empaths Because we are easy mulipulated …
We love deeply that’s why it takes ages to heal
Thanks for this. I’d not heard of trauma bonds but now I think maybe that’s part of the problem for me. It’s hard to leave with no money and having health problems but I also feel still so attached to him and I’m struggling to accept that he’s an abuser even with everything he does.
