Why does one become emotionally unstable when in love

[@trauma2happiness]

It does come from childhood trauma but not necessarily from the mother / child relationship. Most people repeat the pattern of their parents relationship to some degree.

Yes, but our direct reaction to a partner is from mother/child bond. My dad died when I was 5, and this describes me to the teeth

@@KR_11117 Have a look at Imago theory by Harville Hendrix. You can be attracted to someone like either parent. If you had a good Mum and problematic father, you are more likely to be attracted to people like your father. The mother / child relationship is crucial as the first two trauma periods are primarily driven by the mother however I had post natal depression which if it fell completely on me my son would have a lot of dependency wounding. He hasn't because his father picked up the slack and he was still well parented in that period.

This. Yes

Let's not forget generational epigenetics, a short moment of impregnation, 9 months pregnancy, the trauma of leaving the warm body of your mother to see weird creatures, bright light around you and then... Get insulted for learning to live...

Ignored. Kissed on mouth then slapped. Fun times.
