Childhood trauma (and chronic/complex trauma) is closely related to toxic shame. Shame is such a tricky emotion to work through. It binds with more vulnerable emotions, so any softer emotion can trigger shame. If you feel sad, shame comes up. If you feel hurt, shame comes up.

‼️Let’s talk about what it really means to reprogram your mind after childhood trauma. When you grew up in chaos, neglect, or conditional love, your nervous system learned that uncertainty was normal. So as an adult, you might find yourself drawn to what’s familiar not what’s healthy. The inconsistency. The anxiety. The “almosts.” It feels like love, but it’s really your body remembering danger.
