What is so strange about toxic families is that i was in my early 50's and brother treated me exactly the same way when i was 18 or 20. Yelling, calling me names, and when he started treating my husband the same way, calling him the idiot that is when i realized that he has to be eliminated from my life completely. I have not spoken to him for 3 years and just thinking about him i get anxious.

I was not taught intimacy I was taught to be used and abused. I have had to learn to know how to identify people/family who are NOT willing TO CARE about how I feel. Those who refuse to care will abuse, humiliate and treat others with contempt, and they will strike out and hurt others, because they see this as FUN, Uplifting and hurting others makes them feel powerful. Knowing this was huge for me.

An incredible writer, but also an incredible human~ to have gone through what she endured from a grandfather who _should have loved her, protected her,_ I'm just so angry for that little girl!! Kim, if there's a chance you're reading these comments, I'm a stranger to you but I'm sending you so much love and the biggest of hugs. I'm so sorry. But I'm grateful that you didn't give up. You found your voice and you are bringing awareness to something so sinister that lives in the dark. Thank You. ❤

Wow. The abuse not harming her as much as the family invalidating the abuse resonated so much with me. I was preyed upon for sexual molestation by a church member (who thankfully was interrupted by someone entering the back room.) My five year old self wasn't afraid in that moment because, honestly, I didn't know enough to know that I should have been afraid. What I did know enough to fear was when my mother snatched the picture I'd drawn of the incident out of my hand, sneered, and spat out that she'd show it to my father. I remember sitting in the living room waiting for them to finish talking before my dad would talk to me. I heard my mother spit out the word "Pornography." I was terrified. My parents came in and my mother aggressively told me to tell my father what I'd told her. I shut up and said it was a picture of a man fishing and it looked like that because I didn't get to finish it before she took it away. That was self-preservation. I lied and believed I'd go to hell for it and am glad my young self loved myself enough to be quiet and keep my private things private. Later, after I was r@ped as a young adult, my mother found evidence and pressured me to admit what was going on. (She found a paper trail of medical bills.) She pressured me relentlessly to give up my secret and I finally did just to get the pressure to stop. She won what she wanted (zero boundaries from me) and assured "me" that, when she looks at me, she sees a virgin. I was indifferent to my mom up to that point but that astoundingly self-centered reassurance(?) gave me permission never to pursue any affirmation or sense of identity from my mother again. She's utterly incapable and freeing myself from any dependency was the most honest, integral, and loving thing I could do to myself. Thank you so much for this interview, Dr. Ramani. I'll listen to this one repeatedly and let it do its magic resonating with so many deep parts of myself.

It is totally and completely pointless trying to explain to people who don’t know- haven’t experienced it. So seize whatever you like for you- that’s what lots of drama therapists and the like spend a very long time getting to some imagined stage of understanding and supporting expression through movement sound etc. Do it for yourself 💪.

My dad wasnt normally a violent person, yet he once grabbed my arm and swung me around to punish me for something I did (but can't remember because I disassociated most of my childhood). I told a neighbor. She told my mom. My mother went ballistic. Screaming at me "never tell anyone about anything that happens in this house!!!" I was 4 yrs old. Lesson learned ✔️

My daughter is the same way she figured things out she see what’s going on in other family and my husband and his family. I want her to know everything she can learn knowledge is power no one ever taught me anything my mother never protected me. She never told me to beware of this or watch out for that.

My grandfather was raping my aunt from 6 years old all the way till she started menstruating. He was never punished. She still had a relationship with him as an adult. She did become a paranoid schizophrenic. When he died I didn’t care at all. I was happy he was finally gone. My mother would always tell me not to stay alone with grandpa when I was visiting and then she told me why when I was a teen. Now I’m like- why the fuck would you let me be near this guy as a child!? But she was also the mom who was ok with me dating a 24 year old when I was 15 🙄

I have family members who had this sort of abuse happen to most of the girls (at least 5 of 7) in the family. What saved the others was that they were too young. It all came to light when one of them either committed suicide or was most most likely killed by the abuser, who was their father. She was pregnant at the time. I was 5, so I don't know many details or remember them. I lived 2 houses down from this family, the youngest was my best friend. There has never been any real healing and they all love and adore their mother, the mother who was probably very aware of the abuse.

I am 75 and have CPTSD from early childhood abandonment. It took 72 years for me to find out why I felt so strange around everyone. It took these channels to find out why I was never comfortable with anyone in this world. Once I started hearing it was my mom, dad and 10 year older than me sister, I embraced everything I was hearing. And by that I mean I took action under Ross Rosenberg. He finally redirected me to Lisa Romano to get my deep trauma healed. I am a work in progress. I feel lighter and happier now that I have learned I have the right to say NO. I am happier now that I have learnedI have the right to dismiss hurtful apple from my life. There is no reason to listen to their negative snide comments and wither under their disapproval. I so admire Kimberly because I see a fellow survivor of neglect and abuse. In comparison I have many friends who don't want to face their damaged toxic upbringing. They are continuing to continue their family's generational trauma. I am probably too harsh, but it sickens me to witness their denial. They pity me because I am facing my trauma head on. You go Kimberly. You go girl👍👍👍

Recognize the crying. I cried myself to sleep every night. Was diagnosed with depression as an adult, depression and anxiety and then Graves disease (an autoimmune disease that comes after big stress) At 46 Im finally better for the first time in my life..But my adrenals are..tired. Its a work in progress, I may never fully recover but am 80% better. recognize the bad therapists aswell, ended up at one that kept the abuse going, called me inmature when I finally got angry at the abuser after 40+ years of hell. "How inmature!" When I tried to get out of the therapy she threatened me a´wiuth "Im the only one with psychodynamic therapy in this state, Im one out of 400, you'll never find one like me so good luck" Thought that sounded strange so I looked it up and there was a whole list of others..She lied right through her teeth. I quit and found one thats so nice and kind I am now working with, he doesnt really know these violent dynamics but its better than nothing, I guess. :)

There are millions of girls and women who sadly will never have that opportunity because they're not in a supportive safe family system like you are, nor are they persons of noteriority. Also, every truth sayer and scapegoat of an "enmeshed" or dysfunctional family system suffers terribly whether or not they were sexually abused or not. Emotional, mental, physical and spiritual abuse are not less damaging.

She says "There are many people who are therapists and who shouldn't be". She is right. In a couple's therapy its mostly the narcissistic spouse who is paying the therapist's bill. So these therapist will not tell their cash cow that he/she is a narcissist bc then they stop coming. So they will actually become enablers here to gaslight the victim that somehow its their fault they are getting abused!

Thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm only halfway through, but I had to stop and Thank you. I really needed to hear when said you wished you had of dealt with your trauma separately. Instead of grouping yourself with the other adult members of your family that had trauma. Thanks for letting me hear that. I needed to hear that to know what I'm doing and how I feel towards my family is just. I was a child. And they were adults that didn't help or want help.

I've lived this story and empathise with everything shared in Kimberly's story. I believe in telling the truth about generational abuse and going on the journey to heal is difficult beyond words. I appreciate this platform and the hope it brings me and others

The narcissistic abuse happens in two generation in our family..I suspect my grandmother was a narc, abandoning her 9 children ...As a result, some of her children developed personality disorders and alcoholism...My uncle has abandoned her two children..And my childhood was very very traumatic because of my abusive mother and aunt....

What an amazing lady / child. 💜 God bless her, she was so strong and smart even tho she was scared, alone and confused. Thx Doc - you both are helping so many. - I thank God for this evil to finally be addressed so openly and the "grown-up little ones" who went thru this are finally being believed and finding out that they're loved and listened to by many who really do care and are so sorry they had to endure this. 🌷

Amazing interview. Thankyou Dr. Romani. Powerful young woman, at times I think you were lost for words. On the upside we could see glimpses of her strong personality. I can relate when down and nowhere to go, there is a strong inner person who is still there. Best wishes from N.I. ❤

"Did he hurt your heart, or did he hurt you with his hands?" I actually teared up at this. Kimberly here is actually breaking the cycle. It ran in the family, until it ran into her. Such courage, and strength she had and still has to break this awful awful cycle.

I loved that in this particular interview Dr.Ramani really took out her therapist toolbox. We really got to see what it’s like to share something so profoundly upsetting with someone who is validating and lovely, but also very smart, like Dr. Ramani. I know that I was very healing for me to witness this. I’m also very proud of Kimberly as a fellow family scapegoat who has recently gone no contact. Her story really inspired me to believe that it gets better, I honestly didn’t even think love and parenting was even an option for someone who has gone through familial abuse… but she is proof that it can be done and a healthy person can be attracted to someone who has gone through so much pain. Thank you so much for sharing your story Kim ❤

Just 2 mins in, I love this lady! Speaks volumes for anyone in a family with any kind of inter generational any use. Her story is very valuable to all of us who saw it felt it suffered it, to know we aren't the crazy ones. Our parents weren't our safe space and that was wrong ✌

Unfortunately, I relate. It's confusing, resentment, and numerous mixed emotions. Once, I understood physical abuse that was mind boggling. The rape, thank you, Lord; I forgot most of my life, left my heart broken, hate came into the picture. Now, understanding emotional abuse. A few months ago, I became pissed, wanting folks to feel my pain. I really wasn't ok. It was difficult absorbing the information in the narcissistium. It's been decades dealing with these patterns, throughout childhood, my marriage, after marriage, and friendships. That, it was time for a reset. I don't want family around, too abusive. I, now, find myself growing better. Sucks, yes, though, there is peace. I realized; I can't change the situation other than taking myself out of the situation. Thank you, Lord for giving me the courage to change my life, and Thank you, Dr. Ramani; you made a difference in my life with these podcasts. I am looking forward to listening to your book, reading is difficult for me.

Omg this happened to me. My mom didn’t believe me, but when it happened to my sister she believed. I am so sorry you had to go through this. I am so unkind to myself sometimes and so grateful when I actually catch it and it’s not so unconscious. It’s so uncomfortable and it’s getting better and it sucks and it’s getting better.

You are a brave and courageous truth teller and you bring clarity and comfort to other survivors of generational abuse. We are strong and able to stand alone in our families to break cycles even if we would have greatly preferred just to be safe. Thank you, thank you.

Maybe it's dumb - and it clearly is a part of my conditioning - but when I hear such stories I automatically think: see they had it worse so you have no right to tell your story and it's already told anyways! --> Guess my mother was really afraid I tell anyone! I'm so grateful for anyone who shares their story! I'm learning and gathering my strength to tell mine some time. I hope you all have someone to keep you sane and protected! Love and greetings from Austria!💜💜💜💜💜

I’ve been living low contact not realizing that was a thing. Each new event meant less contact. 3 weeks is the longest I’ve gone before checking on her. She has no idea that I’m journaling and remembering and putting all the dots together.

@bereal6590 Ай бұрын
When you're working through things and those closest to you minimise or completely invalidate your experiences, that's for me worse than the original issue. They're then complicit in the abuse. Worse if they were there originally, it's a second denial! Or if it's the abuser themselves. It's a deeper opening of wounds, just when you're seeking solace. No matter what abuse they went through, I cannot understand or forgive that and it fractures the relationship irrevocably because it's the one time you're giving them the opportunity to be there for you a second time and they throw it in your face in favour of protecting themselves yet again ✌
