Sexual identity is a huge part of how we view ourselves, how we view relationships, how we view others. So this is really a subtle aspect of abuse that really goes unseen and unchecked, but it is very important to take a look at it and see how it might be affecting your daily life.
Have you ever wondered how abuse can shape one's sexual identity? In this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein dives deep into the intricate ways abuse can distort and traumatize our sense of sexuality. Yitz, a seasoned narcissistic abuse and relationship life coach, explains that abuse—whether physical, emotional, or narcissistic—can leave lasting scars that make intimacy and sexual expression challenging later in life.
He highlights how even non-sexual abuse can taint a child's vulnerability, leading to emotional wounds and defense mechanisms that hinder the formation of a healthy sexual identity. Parents play a crucial role in this journey, and Yitz discusses how a nurturing environment can help children develop a balanced sense of sexuality. Conversely, he sheds light on how narcissistic abuse, with its boundary violations and enmeshment, can create a divide between boys and girls, fostering sexual dysfunction.
By recognizing these impacts, we can better understand our self-perception and relationships. Tune in to gain valuable insights and reflect on how past trauma might be influencing your daily life.
