TRAUMA BONDING MOD - BROKEN

-Please use an updated version of this mod.

This mod adds the ability to create a trauma bond with a romantic partner in The Sims 4.

Getting Started

In CAS give the abuser Sim the "Dangerous" trait located in the emotions category.

With this trait your abuser Sim can start love bombing their romantic partner. If they love bomb enough and reach high enough romance level they'll be able to create a trauma bond.

The abuser Sim will have a new Dangerous menu once the relationship is going well and romance is at a high level. These are all very mean interactions causing a bit of trauma to the victim.

The trauma bond will give the target Sim the trauma bond trait, and emotionally dependent trait. The romantic partner with these traits will respond to the trauma causing interactions by remaining the in the bond or getting enough courage to break the bond and leave.

Once the victim romantic partner has the trauma bond you can play out the relationship with either Sim.

Victim Sims

 

 

 

 

 

Once the victim Sim has had enough, they can use the Break Trauma Bond Menu, and then select the Break Trauma Bond interaction. This will remove the two Emotionally Dependent and Trauma Bond traits.

The Abuser Sim will continue to have love bomb and Dangerous interactions.

Hey! I love your mods. I used to use your Trauma Bonding mod months ago, but then couldn't play Sims for a while. Ended up getting a new gaming pc and I redownloaded it, along with your mod, but now there's an issue where lots can't be placed or entered in the world. I checked all my mods and the only one causing it is this Trauma Bonding one. Idk if anyone else is having this issue but I figured I'd let you know. Your other mods I have work fine and don't effect anything else in the game, it's just this one.

I am so excited to use this mod, but for some reason (even though when I open sims it does appear under both of the mods lists), the trauma bonding doesn't show up as an option in gameplay, nor does the trait when creating my sim. How do I fix this and is there anything else I needed to download for it to work?

Thanks! Is there any way to make a similar trauma related mod for non-romantic abusive relationships- like, abusive/narcissistic parents + teen-adult child relationships?

Will definitely consider making something like this in the future.
