Growing up with emotionally immature (EI) parents can leave you feeling lonely and neglected. You may have trouble setting limits and expressing your feelings. And you may even be more susceptible to other emotionally immature people as you establish adult relationships. In addition, as your parents become older, they may still treat your emotions with mockery and contempt, be dismissive and discounting of your reality, and try to control and diminish your sense of emotional autonomy and freedom of thought. In short, EIs can be self-absorbed, inconsistent, and contradictory. So, how can you recover from their toxic behavior? Drawing on the success of her popular self-help book, Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, author Lindsay Gibson offers yet another essential resource. With this follow-up guide, you’ll learn practical skills to help you recognize the signs of an EI, protect yourself against an emotional takeover, reconnect with your own emotions and needs, and gain emotional autonomy in all your relationships. This is a how-to book, with doable exercises and active tips and suggestions for what to say and do to increase emotional autonomy and self-awareness.

Download or read book Adult Survivors of Emotionally Immature Parents written by Vincenzo Venezia and published by . This book was released on 2023-05-23 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you still struggling with emotionally immature parents? Do the people who should have loved and protected you continue to manipulate you instead of treating you with respect and love? Do you often feel confused or insecure because of your parents' unpredictable reactions? Are you struggling every day to repair the damage that they caused? Emotionally immature parents are adults who have difficulty managing their emotions and providing a stable and reliable supportive environment for their children. These parents may have a poor understanding of their children's needs and may exhibit manipulative, controlling and unaccountable behaviours. And while it’s easy to normalise behaviour that we have grown up with, dealing with an emotionally immature parent can be frustrating, demoralising and leave us unable to deal with our own emotions. Unable to deal with their emotions, parents like this tend to sweep things under the carpet or blame other people. I recommend reading this book if you recognise at least one of the following traits in your parents: · They do not validate your feelings, or give them room to emerge. · They are very rigid and resolute and become aggressive to new ideas. · Overreactions even to small things. · They have low-stress tolerance and have trouble admitting mistakes. · They are self-preoccupied and egocentric. · They always have to be right. · They blame you for their flaws or mistakes. · They do not take responsibility for their actions. · They are only concerned about your physical needs and not your emotional needs. · They have the ability to make you lose your mind and drain all your energy. · Denial of reality, emotional manipulation and gaslighting by making you feel crazy. These are just some of the most common signs. In each family they may change or combine with each other. You can may appear happy but feel lonely, are highly-strung, anxious and controlling. As an adult, you could now experience: · Constant feelings of betrayal, anger, loneliness or abandonment. · Guilt when you are happy. · Confusion due to your parents' unpredictable and inconsistent reactions. · Embarrassment about what happened to you and what others might think about it. · A feeling that you are trapped in the relationship with them, with no way out. Adult children of immature parents always recognise that something is wrong, but overlook the devastating long-term effects it can cause in them. Can this painful legacy be stopped? Fortunately, there are methods in this manual to identify and interrupt dysfunctional patterns and cultivate new ones that are helpful and tailored to you. It is important to do this for yourself, your loved ones and ultimately your children. Breathe deeply, release that knot in your stomach, and read it now!

Book Synopsis But It's Your Family . . . by : Sherrie Campbell
Download or read book But It's Your Family . . . written by Sherrie Campbell and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A psychologist offers a roadmap for those looking to break free of toxic family relationships and thrive in the aftermath. Toxic family abuse is always two-fold. The first layer of abuse is the original poor treatment by toxic family members, and the second is someone’s denial of the ways in which abusers treat and harm them. Loving someone doesn’t always mean having a relationship with them, just like forgiveness doesn’t always mean reconciliation. A significant part of healing comes with accepting that there are some relationships that are so poisonous that they destroy one’s ability to be healthy and function best. But It’s Your Family is a remarkable account of what it means to cut ties to toxic family abuse and thrive in the aftermath. Inside, Dr. Sherrie Campbell clarifies: · How parents, adult children, siblings, grandparents, and in-laws can be toxic · The difference between flawed and toxic family members · Explaining the cutting of ties to children and others who may not understand · Spiritual and religious views on forgiveness · The definition of cutting ties and what No Contact actually means When readers are able to bring closure to those toxic relationships, they give themselves the space to love those family members from a distance, as fellow human beings, with the knowledge that it is unwise to remain connected. Readers learn how to love themselves in the process and fundamentally change their lives for the better!
