Summary

Is your parent a narcissist? In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr. Sherrie Campbell breaks down what happens when you come to the realization that your mom or dad should never have been a parent in the first place…children know when their parents don't want them. Dr. Campbell explains the effects narcissists have on their children. Survivors of this trauma can grow into adults who struggle with assertiveness, boundary setting and sense of self. She explores how the children of narcissists later find themselves dating someone with narcissistic tendencies. Cutting ties with toxic family members is a difficult decision. Dr. Campbell is an expert and a victim of this type of abuse. The survival tactics Dr. Campbell outlines in this episode are tools she developed while studying psychology, and implemented because she needed them herself.
