Trapped Between Reality and Dissociation |TOXIC FAMILY DYNAMICS
A toxic family dynamic or a relationship dynamic where there is constant trauma, mistreatment, maltreatment, abuse, neglect, and untreated mental illness, can worsen to the point of you finding any and every exit you can to escape.
The brain dos an amazing job at escapaing the things that are painful, disappointing, and way too traumatic for it to process.
One way the brain copes with a painful reality is through dissociation.
In this live chat, I discuss the psychology of "self-protection" known as dissociation.
