Tens of thousands of children are removed from home each year due to some form of child maltreatment, usually physical neglect, physical abuse, or sexual abuse, although sometimes for emotional abuse as well. An additional significant number of children are victims of child maltreatment but remain in their home. Extensive research reveals the far reaching and long lasting negative impact of maltreatment on child victims, including on their physical, social, emotional, and behavioral functioning. One particularly troubling and complicated aspect is how the child victim forms (and maintains) a “traumatic bond” with his abuser, even becoming protective and defensive of that person despite the pain and suffering they have caused. This book will provide the reader with the essential experience of understanding how children make meaning of being maltreated by a parent, and how these traumatic bonds form and last. Through an examination of published memoirs of abuse, the authors analyze and reveal the commonalities in the stories to uncover the ways in which adult victims of childhood abuse understand and digest the traumatic experiences of their childhoods. This understanding can inform interventions and treatments designed for this vulnerable population and can help family and friends of victims understand more fully the maltreatment experience “from the inside out.”

Child abuse is crushing and may lead to a lifetime of negative outcomes, including poor health, and mental illness. More wrenching is the bond victims often form with their abusers, one so strong they may attempt to protect and defend their victimizers. This book uncovers the realities of these relationships through an examination of abuse memoirs.

'If your relationship is so bad, why don't you just leave them?' 'If you were in such an abusive relationship, why did you stay with them for so long?' 'If you knew you were in a relationship with such a toxic person, why didn't you ask people for help?' If you've ever been asked these questions, aside from being ignorant and hurtful, you'll know it's beyond frustrating. The answer to the above questions, whilst it's complex and often confusing, can be given with two words: trauma bonded. If you find you're in a relationship that you know is so toxic that it's crushing your very being, but you can't bring yourself to leave, you may be in the clutches of a tight trauma bond. If you're constantly feeling on edge, forever working to appease your spouse to little avail and like you're constantly being chipped away at with their abusive behavior, then I can understand how emotionally shattering it feels to live this way. If in the same breath, it breaks your heart to even consider leaving them because you can't imagine life without them, then I can understand that feeling too; because I was trauma bonded to my abusive ex. From my own personal experience and from the experiences other survivors have opened up to me about, this book will cover the following: - What trauma bonding really is - The 7 stages that lead to you becoming trauma bonded - The parallels that Stockholm syndrome has with trauma bonding - The 5 stages you go through when you come to accept you're trauma bonded - The cognitive dissonance a trauma bond can cause - Breaking free from the traumatic bond This book will also include my own experiences and I'll draw upon those to help you really understand trauma bonding, and let you know that you're not alone in being shackled by this emotionally crippling bond. More importantly, this book will help you understand that the invisible chain that tethers you to your abuser can be broken.

Emotionally broken. Mentally drained. Anxiety riddled and devoid of hope. The trauma bond that ties you to your abuser seems unbreakable. Stockholm syndrome, otherwise known as trauma bonding, is a powerful yet poisonous emotional symptom of a toxic relationship. We are treated horrifically by our partner, yet we find ourselves doing everything in our power to maintain the relationship. We are frequently lied to, manipulated, called names, and often physically abused. Still, a life without our abuser isn't something we can bear to imagine. Do we know we're being treated abhorrently? Yes. Does it hurt like nothing else in the world? Yes. Do we actively try to cling to the relationship and make it work? Also, yes. These are symptoms of Stockholm syndrome. But, it doesn't need to be this way. The bond can be broken. I've endured the depths of an abusive relationship, and found myself chained to my abuser by the invisible - but incredibly tight - handcuffs of Stockholm syndrome. Despite many attempts at leaving only to return in the hope things would change, I couldn't seem to tear myself away from the very relationship that was eroding my self-esteem and my sanity. But, it can be done. In this book, I'll use my own thirteen-year long story and the lessons I've learned along the way to guide you through breaking the trauma bond: - I'll explain the cycle of abuse and how the abuser works to keep us repeating the cycle - I'll cover the reasons we stay in a toxic relationship, other than just love and the deep emotional attachment we have - I'll explain the PTSD symptoms we're prone to suffer as a result of the trauma of abuse - I'll help you unlearn learned helplessness - And, I'll discuss breaking the trauma bond and emotioanlydealing with the aftermath Even if you think the bond is unbreakable, or you can't imagine willfully breaking the invisible chains, knowing more about the attachment to your abuser puts you in a better position to free yourself. This book, created through years of first-hand experience and subsequent research, is for those enduring manipulative, hurtful abuse at the hands of their partner. If you feel like you're stuck and you couldn't ever leave your abuser, this book is for you.

Some really great books just keep getting better! For seventeen years The Betrayal Bond has been the primary source for therapists and patients wrestling the effects of emotional pain and harm caused by exploitation from someone they trusted. Divorce, litigation, incest and child abuse, domestic violence, kidnapping, professional exploitation and religious abuse are all areas of trauma bonding. These are situations and relationships of incredible intensity or importance lend themselves more easily to an exploitation of trust or power. In The Betrayal Bond, Dr. Carnes presents an in-depth study of these relationships; why they form, who is most susceptible, and how they become so powerful. Dr. Carnes also gives a clear explanation of the bond that compels people to tolerate the intolerable, and for the first time, maps out the brain connection that makes being with hurtful people comparable to 'a drug of choice.' Most importantly, Carnes provides practical steps to identify compulsive attachment patterns and ultimately to change or end them for good. This new edition includes: New science for understanding how our brains can make a prison of bad relationships New assessments and insights based on 50,000 research participants A new section utilizing the latest findings in attachment research and narrative therapy to concretely rewrite and rescript bad experiences A redefinition of the factors contributing to addictive relationships

Do you often feel undeserving of love, insignificant and worthless? Do you struggle in your relationship but cannot imagine life without your partner? Deep down, do you know that you deserve better, but find it impossible to leave your partner? Does your partner frequently hurt you, then apologise, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and bewildered? The intricate and frequently puzzling response to these inquiries can be encapsulated in a simple phrase: Trauma Bonding. A prevalent instance is domestic abuse victims: a person might form a deep emotional connection with the abusive partner due to the recurring pattern of maltreatment and intervals of affection or regret. Do you often think about your relationship in these ways? "It is my fault — I make them angry." "She is under a lot of stress at work; she cannot help it. She will make it up to me later." "He is only like this because he loves me so much — you would not understand." "I will not leave him; he is my soulmate. You are just jealous." Trauma bonding with a narcissist can be draining for even the most mentally healthy individuals. But why does it happen? The bond forms from our basic human need for attachment as a survival mechanism. From there, abuse victims may become dependent on their abuser. Add in a cycle where the abuser repeatedly promises not to be abusive again and gains the victim's trust, and you have a complex emotional situation that affects even seemingly emotionally strong people. Trauma bonding is a nightmarish prison. Ending the relationship may cause the toxic bond to make you want to plead for your partner's return. This book specifically aims to help you: • Identify the dangerous stages of Trauma Bonding. • Understand when and why Trauma Bonding occurs (within families, friends, or peers). • Dissolve toxic bonds in romantic relationships. • Recognise factors that strengthen Trauma Bonds. • Utilise tools and exercises to break Trauma Bonds. • Develop a safe exit plan. • Heal from a Trauma Bond. Attachment and dependence can create a Trauma Bond, as can an ongoing pattern of abuse and remorse. This cycle can continue indefinitely if not interrupted. This book is designed with YOU in mind, allowing you to progress at your own pace. By following a step-by-step approach, this book will guide you out of the emotional trap that you are in by identifying typical behaviours of victims and their tormentors and applying techniques to break these patterns. If you have formed a traumatic bond with someone, there is no need to feel ashamed. Our brains naturally search for survival strategies. This manual will walk you through each step, helping you break free from the combination of abuse and positive reinforcement that keeps you trapped in guilt, anxiety, and emotional pain.
