The primary 5 core wounds are:
1. Abandonment, which includes both physical abandonment from a loved one and emotional abandonment, where a loved one suddenly disconnects from you emotionally
2. Abuse, including physical, sexual, mental, and emotional abuse, as well as neglect and exploitation
3. Betrayal, where a loved one has violated your trust through actions like cheating, sharing your secrets, or lying
4. Defectiveness, or the false belief that something is inherently wrong with you and that the bad things that happen to you are your fault
5. Separation, which is feeling totally isolated from everyone around you, whether physically or emotionally
