Child abuse victims never got their bottom lower order needs met, and if they were met, it was in a severely lacking and dysfunctional way, with often strings attached.
What happens when childhood trauma disrupts our basic needs and affects our adult lives? In this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein explores the intersection of narcissistic abuse and Maslow's hierarchy of needs. According to psychologist Abraham Maslow, human needs range from basic survival at the bottom to self-actualization at the top. Epstein discusses how victims of childhood abuse often miss out on their fundamental needs, leaving them struggling to achieve higher-level fulfillment as adults.
This lack can lead to seeking love and acceptance in unhealthy relationships, creating a cycle of dysfunction and codependency. Epstein offers practical advice on healing these deep wounds, fostering independence, and building authentic, healthy relationships. Tune in for insights that could transform your path to self-fulfillment.
