The Trauma Clinic: Why My Boundaries Felt Like Walls, Not Safety

At some point, I had to admit it:
What I called boundaries were just trauma responses with prettier

Walls dressed up as “standards.”
Disconnection disguised as self-worth.


Because I didn’t feel safe.
I just felt defended.

between real, embodied boundaries—and the walls we build to avoid
getting hurt again.
If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re protecting your peace or
just rehearsing loneliness—this one’s for you.


Now live.
Come home to your body.
