Lauren and Rebecca delve into the forgotten attachment style, called both mixed and disorganized, having qualities of both anxious AND avoidant. It is created when your caretaker and abuser are the same person. How we become addicted to trauma, the 6 forms of abuse, in relationships, brainwashing, dissociation, brain damage, and the power of reflection. On the Patreon we discuss our darkest secrets yet, involving a mentor taking the ultimate advantage and whether or not someone hired a hit man to murder their own family.
