How to Deal with Trauma
Sin and __________ Cause Pain
Some of Satan’s lies that lead to unhealthy psychological decision-making are:
__________ — No one likes me. My parents don’t care about me, or they wouldn’t have gotten a divorce. My bad behavior was the reason my parents divorced. I am broken and will never be fixed. I am ugly/fat/dorky/unlovable. There is nothing special, uniquely made, or lovable about me. My life has no purpose, calling, gifting, or meaning.
__________ — If I get close to someone, I will be hurt. People are mean. People are selfish. Other people don’t care about me. Only foolish people trust others. It’s every man for himself. Winning is the only thing. And especially for a tween or teen girl: Sex is all boys want and all I am valuable for.
__________ — If God really cared, bad things wouldn’t happen. God doesn’t love or care about me. He is punishing me because I’m bad. God has no use for me and has moved on to help others. This abuse has damaged me and I have no place in God’s family.
