[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trauma bonding refers to the connection formed between a victim and perpetrator via abuse: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumatic_bonding It’s not the connection between friends who share their trauma. [/quote] I said they “share like it’s some kind of bonding process”. I did not use a psych term. If you don’t understand what I’m talking about, spend a little time on Tik Tok and with some high school girls. They think their “trauma” (loosely used if course, because it now means anything unpleasant) is their identity and they talk about it too often with too many people in too many situations. They’ve found a way to overcorrect the stigma mental health used to have and make it a different kind of unhealthy: static, obsessive, needy, and attention-seeking. [/quote]
