Manage episode 410329131 series 3566423
In this episode we learn about the beginning of a divorce and the effects of it. For Dawn, it was normal to share everywhere she was going, with everyone, all the time. Having the feeling that she needed permission to do things was the first thing that became apparent to her when the relationship was complete. She recalls how she had said to her kids that she was going somewhere, and that the kids were not interested in knowing. Not because they didn't care, but because they didn't need to know where she was at all times, like she thought they did. Mainly because that was how she operated with her ex.
Something that is especially important to Dawn, and she speaks about how it was devastating, is how when you are in a toxic relationship, your body takes on the weight from the negativity. She speaks about how she had frozen shoulders and couldn’t lift her arms amongst other physical issues that ceased to exist once she ended the relationship. Can you imagine how crazy that is. Your body takes on the physical attributes of your mental state.
