What Is Religious Trauma?
Religious trauma refers to the emotional, psychological, and spiritual harm that can occur in the context of religion. It often stems from experiences of judgment, manipulation, or abuse within a faith community. For many, it’s tied to strict doctrines, spiritual shaming, or being ostracized for questioning beliefs. The impact can be profound, leaving individuals feeling disconnected from themselves, others, and their sense of the divine.
Religious trauma is often coupled with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD). Toxic shame, intrusive thoughts, suicidal thoughts, feeling unworthy or unlovable, flashbacks, depression, and anxiety are all common symptoms of C-PTSD from religious trauma. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and an Adjustment Disorder are also common diagnoses that come about due to religious trauma.
