I would argue that all addictions are rooted in the inability to self-soothe internally these emotional and psychological wounds and the search for this soothing from outside, toxic and, unfortunately, destructive sources.
Ever wondered how narcissism and addiction are linked? In this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein takes a deep dive into this intriguing connection. Narcissism isn't just about excessive entitlement or lack of empathy; it's often an addiction itself, a way to mask deep-seated feelings of shame and guilt. When these inner wounds are triggered, narcissists might project their pain onto others, using them as a 'drug' to soothe their own discomfort.
Yitz explains how this sneaky form of addiction operates and why it's crucial to understand the narcissist's inner world to protect oneself from potential harm. He also introduces the mind map therapy system, a powerful tool for identifying and healing childhood wounds. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complexities of narcissistic behavior and start their journey towards healing.
