There may be little or no awareness of this dysfunctional pattern until their mid-30s or 40&#8217;s when problems arise in their personal relationships and workplace.

Some people even report that it can provide a feeling of being &#8220;alive&#8221; or &#8220;normal&#8221;. Socially, it can be a vehicle that provides a sense of belonging and total acceptance by people who struggle with similar behaviors.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healingspringsranch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/guesthouse.jpg\" alt=\"guesthouse\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"600\" width=\"900\" title=\"guesthouse\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<h3><em>&#8220;Everyone will experience something traumatic in their lifetime, but it is how they process it that matters.&#8221;<\/em><\/h3>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trauma is the result of a distressing event or series of events.
