Survival Guide for Adults -The INVISIBLE Wound: Healing From Childhood Emotional Neglect

What if the deepest wound of your life isn't from something that happened to you, but from something that didn't? This is the invisible, confusing legacy of Childhood Emotional Neglect.It's not about a lack of love, but a lack of acknowledgement. In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the most misunderstood form of childhood trauma. We'll expose how a child's brain, starved of connection, adapts for survival by shrinking its own needs—a strategy that leads to a lifetime of chronic loneliness, crippling low self-esteem, and a profound difficulty trusting others.Using the frameworks of attachment theory and neuroscience, we'll decode the "internalized neglect schema" and explain why you might feel simultaneously "too much" and "not enough." We'll explore why this is so common with well-meaning, emotionally absent parents, and how this invisible wound literally alters your nervous system.But this is not a life sentence. This is a roadmap to healing. We’ll show you how the courageous act of self-recognition can begin to reverse the damage, break the generational cycle, and finally give your inner child the one thing it has always needed: to be seen.Your healing starts with acknowledgement. Hit play to finally give a name to what you've always felt. If this episode resonates with the deepest parts of you, please consider sharing it. You never know who else needs to feel seen today.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mindbenders-brain-teasers-philo-psych--6019641/support.You May also Like:🤖Nudgrr.com (🗣'nudger") - Your AI Sidekick for Getting Sh*t DoneNudgrr breaks down your biggest goals into tiny, doable steps — then nudges you to actually do them.
