Ultimately, it takes healing your wounds and, as you start to heal, you will start to see reality from a healthier perspective.
Ever wondered how childhood trauma skews our view of reality? Yitz Epstein takes a deep dive into this topic in this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast'. He explains how traumatic experiences in childhood can send the emotional brain, or Amygdala, into overdrive. This heightened emotional state can create extreme reactions, leading to a warped sense of reality. Children often internalize these feelings, mistaking them for absolute truths about themselves and the world around them.
This distorted perception can manifest in adulthood as black-and-white thinking, narcissistic splitting, and control issues that strain relationships. But there’s hope. Yitz offers practical advice on understanding and healing these cognitive distortions. By addressing the root causes of these skewed perceptions, individuals can start to see the world more clearly and build healthier relationships. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with the aftermath of childhood trauma and seeking a path to a clearer, healthier perspective.
