American reality star Kim Kardashian has voiced concern that her past trauma is causing her to “turn into a full robot” with “no emotion.”
Kim Kardashian opened up to her sister Khloe Kardashian on the July 18 episode of The Kardashians about her battle with mental health.
“[My therapist] was like, ‘You think calm is your superpower. I think you are so desensitized from trauma that you literally are frozen in fight or flight,’” she recalled. “So then she was like, ‘One time in life something happened, and you remained calm, and that worked for you. So you will always choose calm.’”
Khloe added that prior to the event, Kim wasn’t calm, and she speculated that the trauma from the 2016 Paris heist may be the reason for her ability to maintain composure.
“You were never calm as a teenager, in your 20s. You cried about everything. You were bratty. You threw tantrums. Everything stopped after you got robbed, because you stayed calm in that situation and you even said, ‘My calmness is what kept me alive,’” Khloe added.
In a private conversation with cameras, Kim reflected on the events of her robbery and how the traumatic incident has affected her mental health.
“Imagine you’re like, gun to your head, getting tied up, dragged across a hotel room, and the guy, I remember him telling me, ‘Just like, stay calm and you’ll live.’ And I did that,” she said.
“[It] served me well at that time, and I think it saved my life. But I think I’ve let it get too calm to where people could take advantage of my calmness or I’m just turning into a full robot with like, no emotion.”
