When Old Wounds Resurface
Navigating Healing as a Domestic Violence Survivor
Healing after domestic violence is never a straight path, it's a journey with twists, turns and layers. Just when you think you have “done the work,” old wounds can resurface, bringing back anger, sadness, or even guilt you thought you had buried long ago.
​
If you have ever asked yourself:
​
-
“Why am I still feeling this way years later?”
-
“Does this mean I have failed at healing?”
-
“Why can’t I let go of the past?”
​​
…you are not alone. Many survivors find that trauma revisits them in waves.
​
👉 The truth is, healing happens in layers. Each time those wounds resurface, it’s not a setback, it’s a sign you are ready to go deeper.
​
​
Why This Matters
​
As a survivor myself, even 15 years after leaving my abusive marriage, I have had seasons where old anger and grief came rushing back. It shook me. But it also taught me something important: healing isn’t about reaching a finish line, it’s about walking a path.
​
That is why I created my 4 Stages of Healing:
​
-
🌼 Daffodil → fragile beginnings
-
🦋 Butterfly → transformation
-
🪶 Feather → release
-
🌳 Oak Tree → rooted strength
​​
When old wounds surface, it often means you are shifting stages, moving from fragility into freedom.

Unmasking My True Self
When you have lived through abuse, it can feel like you are wearing a mask every day, hiding your real thoughts and feelings just to survive. Over time, the mask becomes heavy, leaving you disconnected from who you truly are.
