Cheaper Than Therapy with Vanessa and Dené Ep 141 Q&A: Trauma Bonds and Addiction
Trauma Bonds and Addiction is part of a series where we discuss topics and/or questions submitted by our listeners.
In this episode, we’re discussing:
1. The longstanding concept that drugs, alcohol, and other types of addictions can be a way to feel more in touch with Self/Source and numb the feelings of inadequacy
2. How safety in chosen relationships can initially come from a place of societal conditioning of needing/longing to be accepted and fit in, and how we can dig deeper to examine how our subconscious mind relates to others
3. The possibility that all chosen relationships have some form of trauma bond stemming from our Original Wound that we are separate from Self/Source
If you have a question or topic you’d like us to address, we would love to hear from you for our new Q+A series! Email us at cheaperthantherapythepod@gmail.com
