I'm starting to look at the whole thing from a survivor's point of view as really an addiction, because we do form biological addictions, because we get those rush, you know, rushes of biochemicals- you just referred to those a little while ago- and over time we get addicted to that.
Curious about whether narcissists can genuinely change their behavior? This episode of 'Heal, Grow, Evolve with Kim' dives deep into this burning question with the help of Dr. Rhonda Freeman, a seasoned Clinical Neuropsychologist. Hosted by Kim Saeed, the discussion unpacks the complex neuroscience behind narcissistic behavior and its potential for change. Dr.
Freeman, with her extensive background in neuropsychology, sheds light on whether narcissists can activate empathy pathways in their brains and what that truly means for their capacity to change. Spoiler alert: it's not as straightforward as you might think. The episode doesn't just stop at the science. It also delves into the lived experiences of survivors, exploring how they often become entangled in a biochemical addiction to the highs and lows of their relationships with narcissists. Dr.
Freeman emphasizes that while some may cling to the hope that their abuser will change, the reality is often more complicated. The burden of change frequently falls on the survivor, who must navigate their own path to healing. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with the aftermath of narcissistic abuse or those supporting someone who is. It's packed with practical advice, emotional insights, and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by survivors.
Tune in to gain a clearer perspective on this intricate topic and find out why true change in narcissists is so elusive.
