Interpersonal Relational Trauma: (IRT)is the exploitation of one person by another in a marital/primary relationship through abuse, betrayal, addiction/compulsion, deception, violence, rape, abandonment and/or neglect that affects the victim traumatically. There are many kinds of trauma a person can experience, yet, IRT is about marriages or primary adult/adult relationships. Addiction/compulsivity is a profound relational betrayal because the addict/compulsive’s primary loyalty is to his addiction/compulsion; his primary relationship is with his addiction/compulsion and the acting out behaviors of sex addiction/compulsion further traumatize us, the spouses/partners.If you would like to print a booklet, use this pdf version.
