It’s not Him—it’s trauma talking.

Why does trauma make it feel like G-d forgot you?

Here’s why:

Trauma teaches your brain lies:

• Fight (anger): “G-d left me alone.”

• Flight (avoidance): “G-d won’t help anyway.”

• Freeze (stuck): “G-d doesn’t care enough to notice me.”

• Fawn (which is people-pleasing) (pleasing others): “I have to earn love—even from G-d.”

Truth bomb:

Trauma lies. G-d doesn’t.

How can you reconnect with G-d when trauma is talking?

3 ways to reconnect fast:

1. Awareness:
Notice the lies your brain tells.

2. Boundaries:
Say “no” to feeling worthless.

3. Self-compassion:
Be kind to yourself—like G-d is.

Repeat this today:

“Trauma lied. I’m still loved.”

How can you choose awe toward G-d?

Angels feel constant awe towards G-d. Trauma lets us choose our awe—by changing our thoughts.

Questions people ask

Does G-d really forget about me?

No. When it feels that way, it is not Him. It is trauma talking. Trauma teaches your brain lies, like “G-d left me alone,” but trauma lies and G-d doesn’t. Noticing those lies is the skill of awareness, and it is the first of three ways to reconnect.

What do fight, flight, freeze and fawn mean?

They are four ways trauma talks. Fight is anger, flight is avoidance, freeze is feeling stuck, and fawn (which is people-pleasing) is pleasing others. Each one teaches your brain a lie, like “G-d won’t help anyway” or “G-d doesn’t care enough to notice me.” But trauma lies, and G-d doesn’t.

Why do I feel like I have to earn G-d’s love?

That feeling is one of the lies trauma teaches. In fawn (which is people-pleasing), where you please others, the lie says, “I have to earn love—even from G-d.” But trauma lies, and G-d doesn’t. Self-compassion means being kind to yourself, like G-d is. Then repeat today, “Trauma lied. I’m still loved.”

How do I say no to feeling worthless?

Saying “no” to feeling worthless is the skill of boundaries. It is one of three ways to reconnect when trauma is talking. The other two are awareness, which means noticing the lies your brain tells, and self-compassion, which means being kind to yourself, like G-d is.
