Episode 1.05: Trauma Bonding with Tabashshum J. Islam (Part 2 of 2)
In this episode we continue the conversation about trauma bonding and domestic violence from last week. We talk about how the lack of structure in a dysfunctional family affected by domestic violence can affect youth, and the challenges posed by language barriers when reaching out for help. We define how trauma bonding transcends relationships and nests inside an individual, and can often become the root of mental health issues.
EPISODE TRIGGER WARNING: Violence, sexual abuse.
