Shutting Down: Lee Crowhurst on Emotional Survival with an Alcoholic Mother

Emotions are interesting because recently this shows you how much my emotions have screwed. My step daughter has recently had a baby and there's a whole different episode on children. I didn't particularly want to get involved with George because I didn't want an emotional attachment.
Ever wondered why some people seem emotionally distant? In this episode of 'My Alcoholic Mother', Lee Crowhurst tackles this very question head-on. Someone asked him why his podcasts lack emotion when recounting his story. His answer is both raw and revealing. Lee opens up about how growing up with an alcoholic mother forced him to shut down his feelings from a young age. This emotional suppression wasn't just a coping mechanism; it was a survival tactic.
He shares how his mother's physical abuse and manipulative tactics led him to become a recluse, disconnected from his own emotions. As an adult, this emotional detachment continued to haunt him, making it difficult to form meaningful attachments and relationships. But Lee doesn't just dwell on the past; he offers hope for those who have walked a similar path. He discusses the importance of therapy, emotional awareness, and self-care in the journey toward healing.
His candid discussion serves as a powerful reminder that while emotional wounds can run deep, they are not insurmountable. Tune in to hear Lee's story and find out how you too can start your journey toward emotional recovery.
