Why Narcissistic Abuse is Trauma

Why Narcissistic Abuse is Trauma

Narcissistic abuse isn't just some bad breakup or somebody being mean to you. This is actual trauma. In this episode I want to explain what trauma is, and to educate you on what exactly narcissistic abuse is.

What You Will Learn In This Episode:

  • The definition of trauma
  • Why narcissistic abuse is trauma
  • The 4 trauma responses: fight, flight, freeze and fawn
  • Why our perception is key in triggering a trauma response
  • The origins of trauma responses
  • What codependency is
  • How to start healing the trauma

Although narcissistic abuse is trauma, it doesn't need to define you. I want to help you find meaning in it, so you can go on and not just heal your trauma, but you can actually thrive after narcissistic abuse.
