Cutting short my abandonment cycle (Patreon)

Good morning,

Let's talk about feeling abandoned. I just had a really interesting connection with a crush last week, which set off a small abandonment wound cycle. But, I found self soothing and security within a matter of days. It was so interesting to see a complex trauma response and recovery cycle in such a condensed amount of time. Today, I'll share what happened and how I moved through it. Maybe that will be of service to you.
