8 Signs of TRAUMATIC BONDING, Not LOVE

What does it mean to have a “trauma bond” with someone? Traumatic bonding refers to the deep emotional attachment one may feel towards their abuser, and is more likely to develop in those who have a history of emotional abuse, exploitation, or codependency in their past relationships. Regardless of whether the relationship is romantic, platonic, or familial in nature, traumatic ties can easily be mistaken for feelings of love and commitment to another person. So we made this video to help you understand the difference between Traumatic Bonding and True Love.
