1
When you've been through things that changed you,
2
loving someone doesn't always come naturally.
3
It's not that you don't care,
4
it's that sometimes the closer someone gets,
5
the harder it becomes to stay.
6
You might find yourself pulling away,
7
questioning their intentions, or feeling overwhelmed by something you can't fully explain.
8
And if you've ever wondered why you do this or how to become a better partner despite your past,
9
you're in the right place.
10
In our previous video, How to Love Someone with Trauma,
11
many of you shared something deeply personal.
12
You asked, how do I receive love?
13
Why do I push people away when I actually like them?
14
How do I stop withdrawing in relationships? So we listened.
15
Our team spent time revisiting older videos,
16
reading through your stories over the years.
17
and we noticed patterns, things trauma survivors often feel,
18
but don't always say out loud.
19
So this video is for you to help you feel understood,
20
to help you feel less alone in those patterns
21
and to help you feel more confident in both loving others and letting yourself be loved.
22
Whether you're navigating your own healing or trying to become a better partner,
23
these are the unspoken rules of loving others as a trauma survivor.
24
Number one, your instinct to pull away as a form of protection.
25
After experiencing emotional pain, your nervous system learns something important.
26
Stay alert.
27
So when things start to feel close,
28
safe, or even good, your body sometimes reacts the only way it knows how, by creating distance.
29
Psychologists often refer to this as hypervigilance,
30
a heightened awareness of potential danger,
31
even in moments that are actually safe.
32
Think of it like a guard dog that's been trained to expect intruders.
33
Even when everything is quiet, it still stays alert.
34
It's not that something's wrong.
35
It's learned that staying alert means staying safe.
36
And instead of asking yourself,
37
why am I like this?
38
Try asking, what part of me is trying to feel safe right now?
39
Number two, receiving love can feel unfamiliar.
40
Many people in our community have shared that even when they want love,
41
it doesn't always feel comfortable when it shows up.
42
kindness can feel suspicious consistency can feel confusing affection can feel overwhelming because
43
when love hasn't always been safe your brain doesn't recognize it
44
as something to relax into it recognizes it as something to question like wearing something
45
that fits but doesn't feel like yours yet and just like something new it might feel unfamiliar at first A little stiff,
46
a little out of place.
47
But the more you wear it,
48
the more you move in it,
49
the more it begins to soften.
50
Until one day, it doesn't feel foreign anymore.
51
It feels like something you can finally settle into.
52
So instead of thinking something feels off, try gently reminding yourself.
53
This is new, not necessarily dangerous.
54
Number three, you may test people without realizing it.
55
Sometimes, instead of asking if someone will stay,
56
you create situations to find out.
57
You pull back to see if they notice.
58
You go quiet to see if they reach out.
59
You're not trying to hurt them,
60
but a part of you is asking,
61
will you leave like the others did?
62
You might have seen this in shows where a character pulls away right when things start to feel real.
63
It's not that they don't care.
64
It's that caring suddenly feels risky.
65
In euphoria, for example, Rue often pushes people away.
66
It's not that she doesn't love them.
67
It's because letting them in feels overwhelming.
68
Her distance isn't indifference, it's protection.
69
But tests don't build trust.
70
They create confusion.
71
Because the other person doesn't see your fear,
72
they just feel the distance.
73
Instead of testing, try expressing,
74
even just a little bit.
75
I think I'm pulling away right now,
76
and I don't fully understand why.
77
Okay, number four.
78
You might feel like you're too much or not enough.
79
Some days your emotions feel overwhelming.
80
Other days you feel distant, numb.
81
Like no matter what you do,
82
you can't quite land in the middle.
83
Think of it like trying to tune an old radio.
84
You turn the dial and for a moment everything sounds clear and then suddenly static.
85
Too loud, too quiet, never quite steady.
86
Characters like Eren Yeager from Attack on Titan capture this feeling in a powerful way.
87
At times, he's driven, intense, and unstoppable.
88
But underneath that, there's confusion,
89
anger, and a deep internal struggle about who he is and what he's becoming.
90
His struggles are because he's trying to make sense of everything he's been through while still moving forward.
91
And that's something many people experience too,
92
in a very real way,
93
not being too much or not enough,
94
but still learning how to find balance in something that never felt stable to begin with.
95
Number five, trust is built slowly and that's okay.
96
Attachment theory shows us that trust isn't automatic.
97
It's something built through repeated safety.
98
So even if someone is kind,
99
consistent, and patient, there may still be a part of you that hesitates.
100
Trust is like a door.
101
You don't have to open it all at once.
102
You can open it slowly as you begin to feel safe.
103
Number six, you can learn a different way to love.
104
Not by becoming someone else,
105
but by understanding yourself
106
many people we've heard from say
107
that awareness was the turning point for them by noticing
108
when you withdraw and choosing slowly to stay a little longer you begin to create a new experience of love
109
and bonus number seven you notice when you're self-sabotaging you notice when you're pushing people away.
110
And sometimes that's the hardest part because you see it happening and still feel stuck in it.
111
But that awareness means you're not stuck.
112
You're learning.
113
And even after everything, you still want love.
114
That matters more than you think because it means a part of you still believes something good is possible.
115
Loving others as a trauma survivor isn't about doing everything perfectly.
116
It's about learning, slowly, how to feel safe in something that once didn't.
117
There's no right way to love.
118
You'll figure this out.
119
We hope this helped you feel understood,
120
because what you've been through matters, and you deserve love.
121
It's not in spite of your past.
122
It's regardless of it.
123
And for those trying to love someone with a difficult past,
124
we hope this gives you a little more compassion for what they may be going through.
125
We also saw a comment asking what happens when two people with trauma try to love each other.
126
If that's something you'd like us to explore,
127
we would love to work on that too.
128
If this resonated with you,
129
we'd really love to hear your experiences.
130
Sometimes your story helps someone else understand their own.
131
We've also been working on creating more wellness resources for you,
132
including free digital tools to help you check in with yourself called Psych2Go.shop.
133
And if you're watching this in May,
134
it's also Mental Health Awareness Month,
135
a time to be a little gentler with yourself because healing doesn't happen all at once.
136
It happens in small moments like this.

Dicas de Prática
Para melhorar suas habilidades de fala em inglês, especialmente utilizando o shadowing, siga estas sugestões:
- Escolha um trecho do vídeo que ressoe com você. Comece a shadow speak repetindo as falas em voz alta, imitando o tom e a entonação do falante.
- Preste atenção à velocidade da fala. Tente sincronizar seu ritmo com o do vídeo. Se necessário, pause frequentemente para absorver o conteúdo e praticar fragmentos mais lentos.
- Utilize a técnica de shadow speech, falando junto com o vídeo enquanto você se concentra nas emoções e nas nuances. Isso aumenta a compreensão do contexto emocional, essencial para a fluência comunicativa.
- Reveja partes mais desafiadoras, especialmente onde o falante expressa incerteza ou vulnerabilidade, e tente expressar essas emoções em sua própria prática.
- Se você se sentir confortável, tenha um parceiro de prática para discutir as ideias e sentimentos abordados, usando o vocabulário que você aprendeu.
Exercite essas práticas regularmente em um site de shadowing que você confia para reforçar seu aprendizado. A prática constante ajudará a naturalizar as reações que você lê e ouve, facilitando a aceitação e a expressão de amor nas suas próprias relações.
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
