Moment 002: Patterns of Pain
Manage episode 433100362 series 3441946
In this Moment episode of 'Awaken Her,' I dive deeper into how childhood experiences with critical and emotionally neglectful parents can lead to patterns of seeking validation and love through narcissistic relationships in adulthood. It explains the concept of trauma bonds, the cycle of abuse, and how familiar abusive dynamics can be mistakenly perceived as love. The discussion clarifies how these patterns are deeply ingrained from childhood, resulting in adults who perpetuate these unhealthy relationships, constantly seeking approval and safety.
