-----------------------

Toxic relationships, whether from childhood or adulthood, can profoundly disconnect you from your true identity. When exposed to constant criticism, manipulation, or emotional abuse, you begin to internalize these negative messages, leading to a distorted self-perception. This disconnection from oneself often stems from a survival mechanism, where pleasing the toxic individual becomes paramount to avoid conflict or rejection. Over time, you may lose touch with your authentic desires, values, and beliefs, instead adopting those imposed upon you. This phenomenon leaves many questioning, "Why do I feel disconnected from myself?" as they struggle to reclaim their true identity amidst the lingering effects of these harmful relationships.

The impact of toxic relationships on one's sense of self can be profound and long-lasting. Constantly adapting to meet the expectations of a toxic partner or family member erodes your self-esteem and sense of autonomy. The repeated invalidation and gaslighting can make you doubt your own perceptions and feelings, leading to a pervasive sense of disconnection from who you truly are. This internal conflict often results in a diminished ability to trust yourself and recognize your own needs, perpetuating the cycle of disconnection and self-doubt.

Feeling disconnected from oneself due to toxic relationships can be traced back to both childhood and adult experiences. Early exposure to toxic dynamics sets a precedent for future relationships, as the patterns learned in childhood often carry into adulthood. This disconnection is not just a reaction to external abuse but also a deep-seated internal struggle. The mirror of toxic relationships reflects a skewed image of oneself, making it challenging to differentiate between imposed identities and your true self. This ongoing struggle can leave a lasting impact, causing individuals to feel perpetually out of touch with their own identity and questioning their sense of self.

In my years as a self love coach, I’ve guided my clients from every possible heartbreaking scenario and breakup, and given them the tools they need to heal their trauma and learn the discipline of self love, so they can embody their most true, authentic and confident self!
