Should I Stay… or Should I Go?
If your partner has cheated, you may find yourself in the painful loop of:
“Should I stay, or should I go?”
The truth is, what you want most isn’t just an answer—you want yourself back. You want to feel confident in your choices, trust your instincts again, and know deep down that you are worthy of love and respect.
But betrayal trauma makes that clarity feel impossible.

Your brain holds the answer — and we can help you find it.
Why Betrayal Hijacks Decision-Making
Infidelity isn’t just emotional — it’s neurological.
When someone breaks your trust:
- You feel hypervigilant, anxious, and flooded with self-doubt
- You obsess over details, scan for more lies, and struggle to feel safe
- Your brain stays locked in survival mode, unable to access the calm, confident part of you
It’s like trying to navigate a storm with a shattered compass.
Guided by Science, Grounded in Compassion: Dr. Trish Leigh
I’m Dr. Trish Leigh, a cognitive neuroscientist specializing in betrayal trauma recovery. I’ve seen how infidelity hijacks women’s nervous systems, leaving them paralyzed in fear and shame.
But I also know healing is possible. You can repair your brain, calm your nervous system, and rebuild self-trust so you can make the right decision for you.
The 3-Step Plan to Rebuild YOU Before Deciding
The first step isn’t deciding whether to stay or leave.
It’s rebuilding the version of you who will make that decision from clarity and calm.
Step 1: Stop the Shame Loop
Shame tells you it’s your fault. It’s not.
Healing begins when you stop replaying the betrayal and release self-blame.
Step 2: Rewire Self-Belief Patterns
Your brain needs retraining to feel safe and confident again.
- Mindfulness to stay present
- Neurofeedback to restore brain balance
- Daily affirmations and journaling to reinforce your worth
Are powerful tools to restore self-trust.
Step 3: Build Forward Momentum
Once you feel calm and clear, the question shifts from “Should I stay?” to “What’s right for me?”
This momentum helps you choose peace over patterns.
The Transformation You Deserve
Imagine this:
- Waking up without anxiety or obsessive thoughts.
- Feeling grounded, confident, and calm.
- Trusting yourself again to make the decision that brings you peace.
This is the life that becomes possible when you heal your nervous system first.
What Happens If You Stay Stuck
If nothing changes, betrayal trauma keeps you locked in:
More sleepless nights.
self-doubt.
More cycles of pain.
But you don’t have to live there.
Every small healing step lifts the fog and brings your clarity back.
