I am trying to do more research into the difference in psychology when coming from a broken home at a young age. This is connected to my shadow work. I found a little research but only on how a toddler acts when they are going through a parents divorce.... not how it would effect them as an adult.

My parents split up when I was only about 15 months old. So I know there's a lot in my psychology that's hard to trace the source of because I was too young to remember. Like my foundation as a new human being was unstable and disrupted around the time I was probably just starting to walk.

When I look up research about the effects on divorce as a young child, I feel like I stray a little from those who's parents slip up at older ages. I never wanted my parents together, I never saw myself as the reason they broke up. I saw myself as the reason they were stuck dealing with each other when they clearly did not want to.

When they officially divorced when I was 8 and sat me down to talk about it, I didn't even realize they were still married. There's a slight difference in my experience which makes it harder to pin down certain shadows.

I didn't know if anyone here could relate, had advice, or any knowledge of what I am talking about.
