ACCESS PART TWO OF THIS VIDEO SERIES HERE: https://youtu.be/pRGin4zhuB8 Children in the 'scapegoat' role in a dysfunctional or narcissistic family can develop a false 'survival self' in response to chronic rejection, shaming, blaming, attachment trauma, and betrayal trauma, which will eventually result in their experiencing complex trauma (C-PTSD) symptoms as adults. In this TWO-PART video, Psychotherapist and Family Systems expert Rebecca C. Mandeville (author of the best-selling book on family scapegoating abuse, 'Rejected, Shamed, and Blamed), explains how growing up in broken, energetically 'split' family ground impacts children and why scapegoated children can 'split' intrapsychically and begin to identify with a false, trauma-based survival self. (Part 1 of 2). PART TWO of this video here: https://youtu.be/pRGin4zhuB8
