Another really informative podcast. I love how the discussion brought into play a very helpful point (in this storm of betrayal and pain ) that the body keeps score and how our brain / mind may not even KNOW how or WHY we respond the way we do. That tells a partner of the betrayal that it isn’t about THEM.
Sam, What about us Men who have been betrayed? I had been dealing with ED before her betrayal, I had just started to overcome my ED when she decided to betray me with a man she had only met once. Now I feel like I am not a man anymore. even though she sad that was not the reason I can't help but think that was a big part in her betrayal.
it's awful. I work very hard to help the betrayed male and I get it totally. It's possible to heal and it's more than possible to heal the ED. What help are you getting for the betrayal trauma? If easier you can email me at samshealingpodcast@gmail.com
Oh and doing EMDR with the VA… yeah, it really really stinks but all the money spent on just getting PHP and IOP and the three courses and being on FMLA since late December really takes its toll.
My husband drinks alcohol & smokes he's 39 for the past couple years I've noticed low sex drive he blames it on his job/being tired. Does his addiction play any part ?
