Episode Overview
- Pathological narcissists have a decimated ego and struggle with self-esteem and self-hate.
- The codependent serves as the ego prosthesis for the pathological narcissist.
- Narcissists disassociate from their core shame and traumatic experiences to survive.
- Attachment trauma deeply impacts the development of pathological narcissists and codependents.
- Rosenberg encourages listeners to prioritize their own healing and embark on a journey towards self-love abundance.
The codependent is the ego prosthesis for the pathological narcissist. Of these three types of pathological narcissists and the subcategories, all of them have a completely decimated ego. They have horrible self-esteem. They hate themselves.
Ross Rosenberg, a seasoned psychotherapist and best-selling author, dives deep into the intriguing relationship between narcissists and codependents in this episode of The Self-Love Recovery Podcast. He paints a vivid picture of 'ego amputated' narcissists who, due to severe attachment trauma, can only function with the help of their codependent 'prostheses'. With a compassionate yet insightful approach, Ross unpacks the psychological mechanisms that drive these complex dynamics.
He explains how narcissists disassociate or repress their trauma, leading them to form predatory and parasitic relationships with codependents. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the emotional interplay between these two types and the path to healing. Ross encourages listeners to break free from being emotional crutches for others and to focus on their own journey toward self-love and emotional well-being.
Whether you're struggling with narcissistic abuse or codependency, or simply want to gain a deeper understanding of these dynamics, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
