Survivor Guilt and Shame After Abuse

Survivor Guilt and Shame After Abuse

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon talks about survivor guilt and shame after abuse, and why so many survivors still feel responsible after leaving an abusive relationship. Brandon breaks down the shame of thinking, “I should have left sooner,” the identity crisis that can happen when you never imagined abuse would happen to you, and the guilt many parents carry about what their children experienced during the relationship and after it ended. Brandon also talks about why survivors often minimize their own trauma by comparing it to people who “had it worse,” and how guilt can keep you feeling responsible for an abusive ex’s addiction, health crisis, or emotional collapse.
