Knowing about peptide addiction explains why the addiction and subsequent obsession to the narcissist can be so extreme victims of narcissistic abuse have difficulty healing from peptide addiction, which is often caused by prolonged and intermittent abuse.
Have you ever wondered why breaking free from a toxic relationship feels almost impossible? In this eye-opening episode of N.A.R.C. Troopers, host Prajinta Pesqueda dives into the science behind why we get stuck in abusive cycles, focusing on brain chemistry, addiction, and trauma bonding. Pesqueda explains how peptide addiction—chemicals released during prolonged and intermittent abuse—creates a toxic loop that makes it hard to let go. She discusses the withdrawal symptoms and cravings victims often face when trying to break free.
But it’s not just about avoiding the person who caused the harm; Pesqueda stresses the importance of steering clear of support groups that might perpetuate a victim mentality. Instead, she suggests seeking online resources and training that promote genuine healing and recovery. The episode also touches on how stress and inflammation in the body can hinder recovery and highlights the role of oxytocin release in breaking trauma bonds.
Pesqueda doesn't stop there; she encourages listeners to explore spirituality and belief in a higher power as additional tools for finding inner strength and healing. Recovery from narcissistic abuse is a complex journey, but this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice to help you move forward. Whether you're directly affected or supporting someone who is, you'll find this episode both informative and empowering.
