The Pain of Infidelity
Infidelity is devastating. Physical affairs, emotional infidelity, extra-marital relationships whether in-person or online is a trauma and a shock. It can feel like your whole world has fallen apart in that single moment of discovery. It may feel impossible for you to have a clear sense of what to do and how to heal such a deep betrayal feeling like you may never be able to trust again. You are. not alone. .
Dr. DeCandia discusses the emotional impact of infidelity
Post Infidelity Trauma
So often I hear people say they feel "crazy" or "out of control." One minute they feel love and hope - "We are going be ok!" and the next..."I hate you - how could you have done this!" It is a cycle that is real, exhausting and confusing. Some patients report "flashbacks" to messages they may have read, or places where their partner has betrayed them. This is your nervous system reacting to a sudden traumatic event which infidelity absolutely is.
