Is Your Parent a Narcissist?

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. This
episode discusses adult subject matter, including descriptions of
emotional and physical abuse, and is intended for adult
consumption only. Listener discretion is advised. If you have
