Having critical, narcissistic parents is trauma
A lot of times, couples that have a history of having a critical parent, end up needing help with healthy communication. Having a parent who was critical means you may be more critical in your communication. Without realizing it, growing up, it was normal to be criticized. Yet, criticism is a form of negative communication and is hurtful. A critical parent may have justified calling their child bad as punishment. Maybe, you have memories of being called names or criticized. But, when you were a child, it seemed normal. Now, as an adult, you want to break the cycle of verbal abuse and criticism for your family and marriage. As well, if you had a parent or caregiver who criticized you for showing affection, you may need help showing affection as an adult.
Being the caretaker as a child is trauma
In childhood, you had to be the caretaker for a parent who had bi-polar disorder, depression, or a physical handicap. You may have had a parent who was an alcoholic or used drugs or had debilitating mental health issues. In your childhood, it was traumatizing having to care for your parent. Now, your partner triggers you when they need you in that same way.
When you have a parent with alcoholism or a drug problem, children miss out on a happy childhood. Perhaps, your parent made you take care of them and you felt like the parent.
A childhood trauma is having a parent who is emotionally immature.
When you look back, your caregivers weren’t able to give to you in the way you deserved in your childhood.
As well, as a child, you always had to always be perfect and get good grades. If you didn’t get a 100%, you were considered a failure by your parents and humiliated. As a child, you had a lot of emotional burdens put on you as a child.
A parent who withheld love or was narcissistic is trauma
Without realizing it, having a parent that withheld love, means you may have an anxious attachment style. You may have had a parent that didn’t tell you they loved you ever. Or, you had a parent that withheld love in some way. As a child, you felt like a burden or unimportant to your parents. Now, you may have fears your romantic partner will withhold love too. So, if you sense your partner withholding love, you get triggered. If a parent withheld love, you may need help from couples therapy to learn to give and receive love.
Having a narcissistic parent means that you had to grow up too fast.
