Am I a narcissist? The first answer I always say back to them is no, you're not a narcissist because no narcissist would ever ask themselves such a question.
Ever found yourself wondering, 'Am I a narcissist?' Caroline Strawson tackles this very question in her episode of The Narcissistic Abuse & Trauma Recovery Podcast. If you're asking, chances are you're not a narcissist. Caroline explains that true narcissists rarely, if ever, question their own behavior. This episode dives deep into why that is and what it means for those caught in the web of narcissistic abuse.
Caroline breaks down the psychological impacts of such abuse, highlighting changes in the brain like a shrinking hippocampus and an enlarged amygdala. These changes can lead to forgetfulness and a lack of focus, making it even harder to break free from an abusive relationship. She also touches on how narcissists project their own wounds onto their victims, never admitting fault or seeking help.
This episode isn't just about identifying the signs of narcissistic abuse; it's about understanding the trauma stored in your body and your nervous system's response. Caroline encourages listeners to become aware of their healing journey and take intentional steps towards recovery. With her blend of science and empathy, she offers hope and practical advice for anyone struggling with these issues. If you're looking for answers and a path to healing, this episode provides a supportive and informative guide.
Caroline's approach is both compassionate and educational, making it a must-listen for anyone affected by narcissistic abuse.
