15-B. The 6 Tips to Thrive Despite the Trauma Bond - Chaos Addiction Mini-Series Part 2/4 - Emotional Detachment as a Tactical Advantage for Family Court, Season 2

"Why does this keep happening to me?"

"Why do I keep attracting narcissists?"

You choose to stop. With 6 ASD-friendly practical tips that Faustina used repeatedly in her journey of taming peace after years of running on adrenaline and cortisol, we can slowly familiarize ourselves with our new life. Whether that's getting out of domestic violence, healing from narcissistic abuse, or winning a custody battle in family court, there's going to be a point where things will stop being a constant threat, a constant chaos loop. And your brain won't like it if you're trauma bonded. So here are 6 trauma informed, practical ways that you teach your brain to enjoy the quiet after the storm, so you can settle into it, and change the course of your life - one day at a time!

Addiction to chaos is a real thing. It's called a trauma bond. In this episode we get practical with 6 mindset shifts and day-to-day habits that may help us not dive head first into another problem, another abusive relationship, another overwhelming situation. In the next episode we nerd out on the hormones in the brain that drive that addiction, and how we can help normalize those hormone levels.

I want to point you to one of my biggest pillars in my trauma recovery, Dr. Ramani, who teaches from a more authoritative perspective, things you need to know about narcissism, NPD, and about recovery.

Season 2, Emotional Detachment as a Tactical Advantage for Family Court (starting with this "addiction to chaos" mini-series) is aLiberation Series that suggests things to look into as you rebuild yourself, so that you can become the version of yourself that is so detached emotionally, that you can prepare for family court correctly.

Emotional detachment is where I want to help you get to, so that any thoughts I may share about court prep actually land.

DETACH, BABY, DETACH!

Here is the order I recommend for your healing journey towards emotional freedom, as you work to become a new version of yourself -the version that can actually win in court:

• First step is to not go back. There's a true addiction to chaos: ⁠⁠Episode 15A⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Episode15B⁠⁠, Episode 16A, Episode 16B.

• You then want to work with a therapist and see if you carry PTSD, and what types of therapy will help you heal the PTSD.For me, it was EMDR: Episode 17, Episode 18.

• You then want to see Forgiveness as a tactical advantage and as a massive step in your personal development.That's Episode 19.

• The next things to think about in your liberation and in reclaiming your dignity, will be codependency and gratitude.
