Conquering Emotional Eating After Narcissistic Abuse

Food was really kind of like my best friend in some respects that would really distract me away from feeling what my system didn't want me to sit in, feeling which was not good enough.
Emotional eating can be a tough habit to break, especially when it's tied to the trauma of narcissistic abuse. In this episode of 'The Narcissistic Abuse & Trauma Recovery Podcast', host Caroline Strawson opens up about her own struggles with emotional eating during her relationship with her covert narcissist ex-husband.
She dives into the moments that triggered her emotional eating, the impact it had on her self-esteem and mental health, and why our bodies turn to food as a coping mechanism. Caroline sheds light on the concept of 'protector parts'—those parts of ourselves that use emotional eating to shield us from deeper pain. She explains how recognizing these parts can help lift the burden of shame and guilt, allowing for compassionate self-reflection.
By understanding what emotional eating is distracting us from, we can begin to address those underlying issues and heal old wounds. This episode is packed with practical advice and personal anecdotes, making it a must-listen for anyone dealing with emotional eating after narcissistic abuse. Caroline's empathetic approach and expert insights offer a roadmap to recovery, helping you move from pain to empowerment. Tune in to discover how to come from your true self and start your journey toward healing.
