#adultchildrenofalcoholics #narcissisticparents #codependencyrecovery #emotionaldeprivation Growing up in a home with emotional deprivation can cause you to worry more about others than yourself. You lose your connection to the self. You learn to believe you are here for everyone else but yourself.
When you have a messed up childhood this can cause you to lose yourself to hypervigilance.
If you are the adult child of an alcoholic or narcissist, you may have grown up walking on eggshells, and you may feel like you must stay in control in order to survive. Childhood trauma can cause a child to become stuck in fight or flight. As a result, many of us do not know how to have fun in adulthood. Hypervigilance helped us survive but today, in adulthood, we may not know how to let go and have fun.
Childhood trauma and emotional neglect cause a child to feel forced to abandon the self in order to survive. The adult child of an alcoholic, or children with narcissistic parents, who have never felt attuned to by their parents, have been denied a healthy connection to love and thus the self.
Codependency healing is possible but not without healing the inner child. Hypervigilance keeps us on guard and afraid of the next attack. Childhood emotional neglect causes childhood trauma that will manifest later on in life as hypervigilance. The adult child of alcoholics has had to abandon their inner child in order to survive narcissistic parenting and emotional neglect.
Adult children of alcoholics suffer from codependency and can become addicted to chaos and taking care of other people. Therefore, we have a hard time having fun. Our identity is rooted in filling the needs of others.
Codependency recovery is absolutely possible! Learning to meditate, journal, and to let go of what you cannot control, helps you begin the adult child recovery process.
Never give up healing from the past.
You are enough!
If you are the adult child of an alcoholic, or if you grew up with narcissistic parents, please know the very survival skills that kept you safe as a child may be holding you back today. There is hope.
