• Betrayal Trauma & Post Traumatic Embitterment

  

  Post-Traumatic Embitterment Disorder (PTED) is a psychological condition marked by persistent bitterness, resentment, and a sense of injustice after a deeply unfair or humiliating event, such as betrayal trauma. Unlike PTSD, PTED centers on moral injury and emotional pain, often causing long-lasting distress, intrusive thoughts, and difficulty moving forward in life and relationships.
