Trauma bond? if anyone’s up …

I felt quite stupid today when I was thinking of what I thought trauma bonding was was sharing stories and bonding over similar experiences. Where is in the state and age trauma bond is a bond you have with someone after they’ve manipulated/exploited your past traumas

If anyone wants to swap stories, would be nice to reminisce on a more personal level .. hence the “rant” flair

Warning: my defense mechanism defaults to laughing
