Unhealed Childhood Trauma Manifests As:

- Co-dependency
- Fixing others
- External validation needed
- Living on high alert
- Fear of abandonment
- Need to prove themselves
- De-prioritizing own needs
- Tolerates abusive behaviour
- Attracts narcissistic partners
- Difficulty in setting boundaries
Pain from childhood can affect adult life. A person may seek approval, fear being left alone, struggle with boundaries, or tolerate toxic relationships. Feeling unsafe in the past can lead to habits that harm emotional well-being. Healing starts with self-awareness and self-care.
