Religious Trauma In a Nutshell
Manage episode 496208254 series 3679487
In this first episode of Queerly Having Issues, host Jafeth Jacobs explores the deeply personal and widely relevant topic of religious trauma, especially as it affects LGBTQ+ individuals raised in non-affirming, high-control religious environments.
We unpack the concept of Religious Trauma Syndrome (RTS)—a form of psychological harm that can mirror complex PTSD—and dive into the unique challenges faced by queer people who grow up hearing that their identity is sinful, unsafe, or unwelcome.
Drawing from personal experience and academic research, this episode discusses:
- What religious trauma is and how it develops
- Common symptoms including anxiety, depression, and dissociation
- The specific impact of anti-LGBTQ+ theology
- Healing tools like affirming therapy, chosen family, and creative expression
Whether you're deconstructing your faith, questioning your beliefs, or seeking healing after spiritual harm, this episode offers validation, solidarity, and hope.
The 'Brokenhearted' song which I wrote for the queer community, because of the high rates of depression and suicidal tendencies within our community, you can find HERE.
