About this listen

Loneliness after trauma isn’t just about being alone—it’s about being unseen. It’s sitting at the dinner table surrounded by voices, yet feeling oceans away. It’s scrolling through social media, longing for connection but fearing it at the same time. In this episode of Numbness Paralysis – The PTSD Podcast, host Olga Costa explores the quiet ache of loneliness that often follows trauma.

We’ll talk about how trauma teaches the body to build walls of protection that keep out both danger and love, and why the nervous system struggles to trust connection again. Through stories, metaphors, and gentle tools, this episode offers a path toward understanding loneliness not as weakness, but as a scar of survival.

You’ll discover practices to name and soften loneliness, explore safe micro-connections, and slowly reopen the windows of your heart—one latch at a time.

Because you deserve more than silence. You deserve to be seen.
