Betrayal Trauma has similar symptoms as PTSD

What emotions are you experiencing?
Individuals suffering with betrayal trauma have similar emotional responses as PTSD. A person can be triggered by events, people, billboards, anything that takes them back to the trauma. Hypervigilence such as focusing on your partners behavior to make sure you're emotionally safe is a betrayal trauma response. That is incredibly emotionally draining and hijacking of your life enjoyment.
