Why does betrayal create so much anxiety, even long after the truth comes out?

For more than 40 years, psychologist Dr. Doug Weiss has worked with men and women healing from betrayal trauma and the emotional impact of broken trust. In this video, he explains why anxiety is such a common response to partner betrayal trauma and infidelity.

Betrayal can leave you grieving the relationship you thought you had, searching for answers to unanswered questions, fearing another betrayal, and struggling to know who or what you can trust. Even when the betrayal is in the past, your mind and body may remain on alert, making it difficult to feel safe again.

Discover how to recognize and process these emotions, manage anxiety after betrayal, practice healthy self-care, and begin rebuilding a sense of emotional safety. He also explains why the anxiety and trauma you experience after betrayal are valid responses to a deeply painful loss of trust.

If you are struggling with betrayal trauma symptoms, anxiety after infidelity, fear, triggers, or difficulty trusting again, you don’t have to navigate recovery alone.
