#trauma #FAMILY
#tamarahilllpc

When you are in a family the last thing you are going to think is that you will be alone. Most people are swayed by the false belief that "family is everything." While family can be "everything" for people who have healthy and loving families, it isn't "everything" for those who are abused, neglected, ignored, hurt, manipulated, envied, etc.

Having spoken to many individuals experiencing traumatic bonding in their family, I can safely say that it is often better for them to be alone than to connect (or reconnect) with their family.

Believe it or not, I've been there and I have many people close to me who have. So you're getting both a personal and professional experience in this video.

In this video, I will be discussing the existential experience of being alone in your family and building the strength to keep going.
