Why Love at First Sight Can Be Risky for Codependents

The SLDs frame of reference is the sacrifice the narcissists frame of reference is take, and they for this moment, not too long, feel like they are excited, and what I see is this: look of it's like an altered state of happiness and joy like all of their prayers have been answered.
Ever felt an intense connection with someone right off the bat, only to have it fizzle out into heartbreak? Ross Rosenberg and trainee psychologist Anoushka Marcin dive into this all-too-common experience for codependents in this episode of The Self-Love Recovery Podcast. They unpack why those who struggle with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLD) often confuse that initial spark of chemistry with genuine love.
Ross, a seasoned psychotherapist, explains the brain's inner workings when it comes to love, infatuation, and lust, shedding light on why these emotions can feel so overpowering. The duo also explores the Human Magnet Syndrome, where a codependent's giving nature perfectly aligns with a narcissist's taking personality, creating a euphoric yet misleading sense of finding 'the one'. But when the initial high fades, codependents are often left facing a harsh reality.
If you've ever wondered why you keep falling for the wrong people or how to break free from this cycle, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in to learn how to recognize these patterns and start building a foundation of self-love.
