About this listen
Love is often described as healing, safe, and comforting — yet for many trauma survivors, love can feel like danger.
In this episode of Numbness Paralysis – The PTSD Podcast, host Olga Costa explores why intimacy can activate fear, tension, and emotional withdrawal in those living with PTSD and complex trauma.
Drawing from neuroscience, attachment theory, and lived experience, this episode examines:
- Why the body remembers love as threat
- How attachment and survival systems collide
- Why calm can feel unfamiliar — or even unsafe
- Gentle tools for relearning safety in connection
- How love can become a slow, nervous-system repair
This is a soft, reflective episode for anyone who longs for closeness but feels overwhelmed when it arrives.
