Society at large is guilty of making judgments and assumptions about people who exhibit self-trashing behaviors. Even in this woke time of sexual positivity, we're still judgmental when we see something like that. And I don't think you can automatically assume that it's what it looks like. It can be something else.
Imagine stepping out of a storm only to find yourself in another kind of chaos. That's often the reality for those recovering from narcissistic abuse. In this episode of N.A.R.C. Troopers, host Prajinta Pesqueda dives deep into the aftermath of such trauma, particularly focusing on the self-destructive behavior many survivors experience. From unsavory sexual liaisons to harsh self-criticism, Prajinta unpacks why these maladaptive responses happen and how they can be overcome.
