Finally😢😢 a video on this. Some people dont understand that you cant heal trauma when you think you deserve the karma. Fragmentation, dissociation, and freeze/fawn response to deal with the shame. Never hurt anyone but almost died because of a bad choice. How do I apologize to myself, God, who do I need to apologize to? Can I call myself a rational good person if I created evil and almost got killed for instagram fame?

Thank you for this. This also holds true for the Survivors of sexual and ritual abuse that I work with. They too are left to hold the moral pain that society at large should be shouldering and making societal changes on. That you Mr. Saul for naming and articulating this!

Very relevant to people experiencing the cognitive dissonance in the world of animal rights activism and vegan advocacy, suffering from deep moral abuse as a result of witnessing the exploitation, violence and murder of helpless, innocent animals in factory farming, laboratory testing, rodeos, circuses, zoos, petting zoos, dogfighting, cockfighting & other forms of cruel entertainment, and seeing fellow humans perpetrating this cruelty or allowing it or ignoring it. The ensuing desperation & often helplessness to save animals’ lives and influence humans to change their behavior causes deep moral injury.
