The stress of painful past experiences is more than just a memory. It can cause you to avoid certain people or places, affect your emotions, even your trust in people. This makes the most important relationships in life harder to maintain. You’ve likely gotten this far by creating your own coping mechanisms. Maybe even done the work of understanding your past. But we can understand our past mentally, and still feel the pain of trauma. Because the body doesn’t forget. Some pain has to be worked through at a deeper level.
