Description:

People who go silent when something hurts them aren’t giving you the silent treatment. Their silence is a trauma response. It’s called emotional withdrawal. They learned that speaking up gets them misunderstood or dismissed. So now when they’re upset, they shut down completely. Inside their head, they’re explaining everything perfectly. How they feel, what went wrong, what they need from you. But those words never make it out. Because staying quiet feels safer than being misunderstood again. So they handle everything alone. They disappear into themselves until the hurt passes. Never asking for help, never explaining why they pulled away. Sometimes they’re the loudest person in the room. Funny, sarcastic, talking about everything except what matters. But when they’re actually hurting? Silence. They don’t need you to fix them. They need someone who understands that their silence isn’t about you. It’s about old wounds that taught them speaking up makes things worse. ❝ @opusreality 🔥Want to know how we built a community of over 1,7 million followers across Instagram and TikTok?
