Disassociation can sound scary and overwhelming, but is actually much more common than we think. Disassociation is a trauma response and can become a patterned response to stress and overwhelm, and often looks like disengaging and disconnecting from the present moment. In this episode I talk about what disassociation is, why it’s nothing to be afraid of, and how to begin healing. I discuss my own process with disassociation and the returning of traumatic memories. I also answer a listener question from someone who is moving through the process of having memories return and wants advice if they should tell their partner or continue to keep this a secret.
