Childhood trauma can deeply impact an individual’s emotional and psychological well-being, often leading to struggles with addiction later in life. The pain and unresolved emotions from traumatic experiences may drive people to use substances or behaviors as a coping mechanism. Addiction can become a way to numb or escape the overwhelming feelings associated with past trauma. Breaking this cycle requires addressing both the trauma and the addiction simultaneously. Healing from childhood trauma is essential for overcoming addiction and achieving lasting recovery.
