Kim Kardashian revealed a vulnerability in a recent episode of “The Kardashians,” discussing the lasting impact of her 2016 Paris robbery. Kardashian, speaking with her sister Khloe, described how the harrowing experience has left her grappling with emotional detachment.
In a candid moment, Kardashian shared, “Imagine being held at gunpoint, tied up, dragged across a room. I remember him [the robber] saying, ‘Stay calm and you’ll live.’ And I did that. It absolutely saved my life then.”
However, Kardashian worries the coping mechanism she developed may be coming at a cost. “I think I’ve gotten too calm,” she reflected. “To the point where people might take advantage, or worse, I’m just turning into a robot with no emotions.”
The reality star isn’t alone in experiencing emotional struggles after a traumatic event. Many trauma survivors report difficulty processing emotions, sometimes resorting to emotional numbing as a way to cope.
Kardashian’s openness about her mental health struggles could help normalize conversations about trauma and its aftereffects.
