From Psych2Go:

Have you been in an abusive environment growing up or an abusive relationship? Even if they aren’t physically violent with you, they could still be abusing you through gaslighting, emotional abuse, narcissistic abuse, verbal abuse, psychological abuse, and more. Sometimes what we experience in a toxic relationship can cause us to develop unhealed trauma or CPTSD. To help you be more aware of these psychological scars, we made this video on the signs of people who might have been abused.
