Healing CPTSD: Yitz Epstein on Childhood Abuse and Spiritual Bypassing

Narcissistic abuse leads to Cptsd because, of course, in childhood your parents are not emotionally available to you, they're not attuned to the child's needs and the child will feel trapped with no way out and again leading to oftentimes forms of dissociation and the aforementioned spiritual bypassing.
Childhood abuse can leave deep scars, often manifesting as Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD). In this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein tackles the intricate layers of CPTSD and the concept of spiritual bypassing. Yitz breaks down how early trauma can lead to severe emotional and psychological challenges, such as dissociation and distorted perceptions of abusers.
He sheds light on the symptoms that many may unknowingly carry, including difficulties in emotional regulation and a loss of meaning in life. But it’s not all grim. Yitz offers practical, actionable steps for healing. He stresses the importance of staying grounded in your body, seeking help from trauma experts, and processing your emotions thoroughly. He also recommends Pete Walker's book 'From Surviving to Thriving' as a valuable resource for anyone looking to understand CPTSD better.
Whether you're dealing with these issues yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode provides a compassionate guide towards recovery. Yitz's empathetic approach and practical advice make this a must-listen for anyone affected by childhood trauma.
