Are you still trying to figure out why your parent hurt you? Feel a deep need to identify the causes behind that last abusive relationship? Here's the deal: your nervous system doesn't care why any of it happened. It doesn't care if that person who hurt you was a narcissist. It doesn't care if they have BPD or autism. All it knows is that it was traumatized. All your body knows is that it's in pain and it doesn't want to be in pain anymore. Too many survivors get caught in the trap of tr...
