Why We Dissociate From Reality As A Trauma Response (#176)
About this episode
Dissociation can happen to people who grew up in chaotic, abusive, or passive-aggressive homes and is common in CPTSD. In this throwback episode, we revisit an earlier recording where I explain why many children who have experienced trauma while growing up escape into fantasy or daydreaming, as a way to cope with their unsafe or uncomfortable realities.
