Trauma Bonding 101: Why You Stay After You Already Know?

By Candice M Royer

Why didn't you just leave? If you've heard that question, you already know it misses the point. Trauma Bonding 101 breaks down the real psychological mechanism, backed by decades of research, that makes some relationships nearly impossible to walk away from, even when you know exactly how bad they are. You'll learn where the bond comes from, why intermittent kindness is more addictive than consistent love, why "Stockholm syndrome" isn't even the right term for what happened to you, and how to recognize hoovering before it pulls you back in. Whether it's a partner, a parent, a friend, or a boss, this book gives you the language, the science, and the exact scripts to finally understand why you stayed, and what it actually takes to leave for good.
