A trauma bond - also known as a bond of trauma, abusive bonding,, traumatic love, traumatic bonding, or Stockholm syndrome is a dynamic that occurs in the context of abusive relationships. It happens when the person inflicting exploitation, violence, or another type of trauma becomes an essential part of the persons life who is experiencing this trauma. So what are people trying to get at by misusing the term? How to share without "dumping" on someone: ACTION Ask consent - I would like to share something hard with you, do you have the capacity to hear it? Check in as you share - I know this is hard to hear, are you okay? Tell them what you need or how you are healing- Inquire about them - so I just shared a lot but I would love to hear about you Open up about other things- I also love pottery Notice how you feel sharing - were you ready to share? https://www.betterhelp.com/advice/trauma/what-abusers-hope-we-never-learn-about-traumatic-bonding/ Topic 00:35:44 Things I'm thankful happened this year Curved Chronicles 00:47:38 Queer femmes jus different!

Our DMs have been overflowing with a veritable cornucopia of polyamory-related questions, so seeing as tomorrow is Thanksgiving, we thought we'd bring not one, not two, but THREE poly folks to the table to discuss loving in abundance! Morgan (@chillpolyamory) provides peer support for poly folks, and nesting partners Bear & Fifi (@bear.n.fifi) offer intimacy coaching. They were all kind enough to cover topics such as "relationship anarchy," jealousy, "compersion," agreements, scarcity vs. abundance, and what the folks are up to kink-wise in Berlin! Nicole and our guests respond to listener questions, and give tips for first-timers easing into poly. Also, Lauren finally gets all of her monogamous-person questions answered! Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!Follow Morgan on Instagram and TikTok at @chillpolyamory, and check out patreon.com/chillpolyamory!
