Same. This includes all of my hobbies and interests, and even the food I like. It's infuriating to realize that the abusers from your childhood had more say in who you are than you did.
Yep the control is a massive part of the abuse, they want a captive. You deserved better

DBT?
Now we can stop calling it trauma and call it life. If everyone supposedly has a trauma, maybe we need to reevaluate a cutoff when it's just "problems" and when it's already "trauma"

If it's interfering* with your daily life it's trauma. I'm sure there's a better, more nuanced, definition, but that's the gist.
It is more common than you'd think
I've been realizing this myself lately.
this was a rough day for me. therapy helped a lot though lol
