Misplaced Trauma Response

I’ve been thinking about the ways that we shift identities (ie from Cyber stalked to Cyberstalker, Proud Jew to self-hating Jew, Gender to gender, abuse victim to victimizer) in an effort to dissociate from trauma and/or re-personalize as something else. In other words, we become that other thing, for a time, in order to survive our circumstances. Have a watch and let me know if this resonates with you. And, simply put, are there any adaptations that you have chosen that served their purpose but have worn out their welcome?
