784 Dr. Steven Young: How To Use Your Mind to Shift Reality At Will

"In a trauma bond, there's a hormonal cocktail happening in the body that's of anchoring it in. You get really big dopamine spikes when you are engaging in the drama. When it moves into the conflict cycle, you get the cortisol spike. And then when you move into repair, you get a flood of oxytocin. Imagine repeating that cycle over and over in a really dramatic relationship that creates a sense of bonding. It's not a healthy or true love, it just feels familiar." — Sheleana Aiyana
