Podcasts about addictive relationships

Are some of your relationships more emotionally triggering than others? What happens when you are married to them? Or they are your children? What about your employer? Or Your Clients? Why do we continue to participate in relationships that seem to cause more uncomfortableness than comfortableness? Well, what if you considered you are addicted to them? And the energy that you exchange with them when participating emotionally with them? Being afflicted with stress when it comes to some relationships can be as solvable as identifying the trigger, and learning how to separate yourself from it – not them.

Narcissistic relationships are quite addictive for both individuals. But that addiction looks different for each of them.   The victim of narcissistic abuse is addicted to the peaceful moments and love bombing. Love bombing is when they become whatever it is that you desire in the relationship. Your "perfect match." When these moments come, it is such a huge relief from the blaming, guilting, gaslighting, circular conversations and victim mentality. These moments of relief give the victim a massive hit of dopamine and erase months of bad behavior. Overtime, no matter how small the breadcrumbs get, the target of narcissistic abuse is addicted to them.   The narcissistic individual is addicted to all the effort their target pours in to pull them out of their abusive behavior. They are experts at playing the victim. Whatever you did that hurt them gives them a free pass to now treat you however they choose. Since their bad behavior is all your fault, you now pour massive amounts of time, energy and effort into making them feel better about themselves and about you. They are addicted to those intense efforts. Thus the bad behavior must continue in order for them to get their "fix."

Love doesn't always feel like “butterflies”. In this pep talk, Tyra unravels the complex web of emotional unavailability in relationships and the journey to reclaiming self-worth. Tyra begins by delving into the deep-rooted desire to be chosen, often linked to unhealed childhood wounds. Discover how this longing can lead us to seek emotionally unavailable partners and why it's essential to recognize these patterns.

Emily & Meg discuss how people and stories are holding them hostage.  They explore how we give other people our power, letting them determine our happiness, our value, our worth. They consider how we take other people's stories personally and that begins this hostage situation because we get into the blame game and self-righteousness, all ways that deplete our personal power.  The keys to our freedom begin with awareness, self-compassion, self-validation, courage, and detachment. “One of the keys to freedom is awareness: when you realize your head is spinning, your focus is outside yourself or proving yourself.” “We have to learn to distinguish if we are in a lower state of being, a lower vibration in our bodies, in order to clear it.”  “The moment you realize you are doing mental gymnastics, you are in a tortured state.” “It can be as simple as I am going to let go, let go, let go, release all those sticky stories, even just on every exhale, it helps us reach for freedom.” “I realized I constantly braced, waiting for the moment I let these intense feelings pierce my soul. But that's when I knew I had to let them come in. I could handle them.” “Sometimes the hardest thing to understand is that you are bracing because there is some truth in other people's assessments of you or your situation and you are not being honest with yourself.” “Once you know your own limits, no one can hold them over your head anymore.” “Am I grounded in my body by these choices of nourishment and care or am I taken out of my body with my fearful thoughts?” “Are we constantly thinking that we are broken and a problem needing to be fixed?” Original Art by Meg Miller References from the episode: #byronkatie  #eckharttolle  #budha  For further exploration, we loved this book: Ready to Heal: Breaking Free of Addictive Relationships by @kellymcdanieltherapy  #detachment   #stateofflow #mythsthatmakeusmiserable #surrender #trust #Evesdropping #personalgrowth #spotifypodcasts #applepodcasts  #healing #positivevibes #selftrust #attachmentwound

This is an episode that starts off as one thing, goes into an entirely different thing and then somehow comes full circle and works relatively cohesively. C'est la vie. I discuss the science behind why unhealthy relationships can be so addicting, our need for validation and how it can be traced back to childhood, the importance of rejecting normalcy, and why it's cool to be a piece of shit.  Follow Raya: Instagram: @rayacarmona Twitter: @rayacarmona TikTok: @rayacarmona To watch the podcast on YouTube: Raya's Channel Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast for free wherever you're listening or by using this link: http://bit.ly/WTGFYPod If you like the show, telling a friend about it would be amazing!

Social media influencers live the lives we wish we lived - perfect and flawless… Or so we think. IDOL is the story of online health and wellness guru Samantha Miller, whose spiral downwards shows that life behind the camera lens is not always so rosy - that we don't always know who we're idolising. Louise O'Neill is a prolific Irish author with multiple titles to her name. Through IDOL she draws on some of her own, testing experiences with social media, digging into its darker side. And through a tumultuous relationship she also plays with the concepts of memory, self perception and truth. In this episode we find out how the fallibility of memory can be used to create dynamic and interesting characters, we learn about the lasting impacts of addictive relationships, and we explore the concept of abstract characters. IDOL is out now. Find a copy here. Your host is inkjockey founder Mark Heywood. Behind The Spine is an inkjockey production, and the audio accompaniment to The Writing Salon.

How often do you allow family and friends to get away with things they shouldn't get away with in fear of rocking the boat, and in fear of losing them? We tend to not stand up for ourself and hold in our thoughts and feelings because we don't want to vocalize how we truly feel. One reason we do this, is because we don't have personal boundaries because we want their acceptance and love. We've held our tongue time after time, waiting for true unconditional love, our co-dependent nature, and our fear of them walking out of our life keeps us quiet and secretly resentful and angry. Get the psychological information you need to create healthy boundaries, to say how you feel in a proper way, and to stop worrying about them leaving and instead change the situation or you be the one moving on.
