Do you find yourself missing someone who hurt you? Feeling guilty for leaving someone who was "sometimes good" to you? If you're struggling with conflicting feelings about your past relationship, this episode is for you.
Today we're exploring cognitive dissonance after narcissistic abuse - that painful tension between knowing someone harmed you while still feeling emotionally attached to them. You'll discover why your heart and head seem to be having completely different conversations, and more importantly, why this internal conflict is completely normal for survivors.
We'll unpack how manipulation tactics like love bombing and intermittent reinforcement create trauma bonding, examine the "good times" trap that keeps us confused, and explore this struggle through a faith-based lens. As Christian women, we need to understand that our God-given discernment recognizes truth even when our emotions are tangled in trauma.
This isn't about you being weak or confused - it's about understanding how psychological manipulation works and finding freedom from the mental prison of conflicting feelings. There truly is clarity after chaos.
