Here's what stays with you the most, after emotional abuse ⬇️
CONFUSION
A key element of emotional abuse is the overwhelming and overshadowing confusion that your abuser installs in you.
Confusion about what is happening
Confusion about who's right
Doubt about your own perception
Doubt about your own rights
This stays with you for so long!
It's been installed so deep in how you think, how relate to others and the world. It feels uneasy, anxious and unsafe ❤️🩹
This is why you keep running through fights in your head, maybe even making up new ones. Your reality has become dependent on the approval of others 🚩
We live with the consequences of what was done. But the consequences are invisible and vague, so we revisit the trauma mentally once again to look for "proof".
This work is tough, and i want you to remember that you're battling something very complex ❤️ it takes time and a loooooot of rounds.
