Why do so many survivors long for connection yet pull away when people get close?
In this episode of Things Nobody Ever Told Male Survivors, Coach T explores one of the most confusing effects of childhood sexual trauma: the fear of intimacy.
Through the story of Miguel, a man engaged to his long-term partner, Daniel, we examine why healthy love can sometimes trigger anxiety, distance, and self-protection. You'll learn how childhood sexual abuse can blur the lines between love, vulnerability, trust, and danger, leaving survivors caught between wanting connection and fearing it at the same time.
