Toxic Shame & Toxic People who Dump it on You | Healing Trauma

Do you struggle with toxic shame? Has a toxic person dumped it onto you? Did they refuse to take accountability for their malicious words, actions, and behaviors? Toxic shame comes from invalidation, abuse, and trauma. Healing comes from education, validation, and receiving emotional support. Learn the signs of toxic shame and how to heal your trauma.

“Shame comes from invalidation. Healing comes from validation. Something magical happens when you tell your story and you’re believed. Your experience is real. Your feelings are valid. You are important. Shame thrives in isolation. Healing comes from connecting. It may feel counterintuitive to be vulnerable when that’s exactly what got you hurt. That’s precisely what healing asks of you. Let yourself shine little by little in authentic ways until it becomes the new norm. You can break this pattern and thrive." ~ Laura Giles, LCSW
