So it's important to heal yourself and realize that no one is going to come along. They're not going to say they're sorry, they're not going to apologize, they're not going to own up.
Imagine being tied to someone who hurts you, yet feeling an inexplicable pull to stay. That's the essence of the trauma bond, often known as Stockholm Syndrome, which Yitz Epstein tackles in this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast'. Produced by Magnolia Healing Center, this episode is a deep dive into the twisted dynamics of narcissistic abuse, where victims find themselves emotionally and psychologically dependent on their abusers.
Yitz explains how victims, often unaware of their predicament, defend and serve their abusers, clinging to false promises of love and affection. Growing up with a narcissistic parent can make breaking free even more challenging, leading to a lifetime of emotional servitude. But there is hope. Yitz emphasizes the importance of recognizing the reality of the situation and challenging the narrative imposed by the abuser.
Building a support network and finding someone who truly understands narcissistic abuse are crucial steps towards healing. Yitz's compassionate guidance provides a roadmap for reclaiming individuality and moving towards a life free from manipulation and control.
