When Safe Feels Scary: Healing Relationship Trauma | NowShift October 21, 2025
So if you’re done suffering — If your parts are tired of trying and failing — If you want a system that does the work for you — You can begin today. 👉 DM “Realign” on my Instagram handle @drabhimanyou_psychologist or here, for your personalized ABAA loop system. It’s just ₹4,999 INR — or around $59.99 USD — and it comes with a 100-day Soul Guarantee. Or if your parts need to dip their toes in first, DM “Revive” and start with the free version — still powerful, just not yet personalized. This is the NowShift. This is what alignment sounds like.
What if your body isn’t overreacting but overprotecting?
In this final episode of the trauma symptoms mini-series, Dr. Abhimanyou Raathore, founder of the Antifragilient Operating System, explores how trauma can quietly rewrite the rules of closeness—turning love into a risk instead of a refuge.
We trace seven common relational symptoms after trauma: fear of abandonment, fear of rejection, clinginess or overdependence, avoidance of intimacy, difficulty trusting, feeling unsafe with safe people, and self-sabotage when things feel “too good.”
This conversation explains how your nervous system learns to protect through vigilance, distance, or control, and why those patterns can persist long after the danger is gone. You’ll hear practical, compassionate tools for:
- Calibrating trust through real data, not guesswork
- Replacing constant reassurance with predictable structure
- Practicing graduated vulnerability
- Using co-regulation and self-regulation to settle the body
- Reframing “tests” and “pullbacks” as pain-avoidance strategies, not character flaws
If safe people have ever felt unsafe, or joy made you want to run, this episode offers a clear roadmap. The goal isn’t blind trust. It’s calibrated trust. The invitation isn’t to drop your guard, but to update it.
🎧 Listen. Share. Review. Let’s help more people find language for what their body has been trying to say all along.
