Liberation Dependency Syndrome
This term describes the post-psychological phenomenon where individuals and communities, despite having been liberated from slavery, colonization, or extreme coercion, continue to experience emotional attachment or dependency toward their former enslavers, colonizers, or abusers. It describes the psychological challenges that arise after emancipation. Liberation Dependency Syndrome highlights how deeply ingrained patterns of dependency and emotional bonds can persist even after the formal end of an abusive or controlling relationship. It illustrates the difficulty of severing these ties and the ongoing struggle to adjust emotionally and psychologically after escaping a situation of severe control, reflecting the enduring impact of past trauma on an individual’s sense of freedom and autonomy.
