Parentification, trauma, turning against yourself: the classic symptoms of chronic childhood trauma or complex Ptsd are shame and guilt.
Imagine being a child and having to step into the shoes of a parent. That's the essence of parentification, a form of invisible trauma that flips the roles between parent and child. In this episode of 'Eggshell Transformations', Imi Lo dives deep into what it means to be parentified, especially for those who are highly sensitive and empathic. These individuals often find themselves burdened with adult responsibilities at a young age, leading to mental abuse and boundary violations.
The weight of these experiences can disconnect them from their sense of joy, vitality, and even self-worth. However, it's not all doom and gloom. Imi sheds light on the path to healing and personal growth. Through understanding and resilience, those affected can rebuild their lives, gaining self-awareness and emotional strength. This episode offers a compassionate look at the struggles and triumphs of those who have had to grow up too fast.
It's a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt the heavy burden of adult responsibilities as a child or knows someone who has.
