Cheated On? Real Steps to Heal Betrayal Trauma and Finally Stop the Pain 😳
If you’ve been cheated on and feel like you’re losing your mind, you’re not crazy — you’re traumatized. In episode 59 of The ANTD Podcast, Amee and D open up about their own journey through infidelity and break down the real symptoms of betrayal trauma, including panic attacks, insomnia, obsessive thoughts, and even broken heart syndrome. You’ll learn why healing after cheating is so much deeper than “just getting over it,” and what steps actually help you rebuild trust, safety, and emotional connection.
We’ll also talk to the betrayers — if you were the one who broke trust, this episode shows you how to step up, stop performing, and become a safe place for your partner to heal. Through honesty, boundaries, and faith, restoration ispossible. Whether you stay or go, this conversation gives you hope, clarity, and the tools you need to start moving forward. 💔➡️❤️🩹
