Complete transcript: Breaking the cycle: how to end toxic patterns for good

Person 1: I mean my parents hit me and I turned out just fine.
Therapist: Well last week you talked about how much you're drinking. And your relationships all tend to be abusive men, who betray you in some way. You're incredibly good at what you do. But, you don't even see it and put yourself down all the time. I'd say you're really not fine. You're so hard on yourself. Because part of you is still that child, who thinks they deserve to be smacked or hit for doing something bad. It's also why a part of you still feels so guilty. Or like you've done something wrong. But, you don't know what the truth is. You didn't do anything wrong. You were raised by a parent who couldn't regulate their nervous system. And now you can be that parent for yourself, breaking the cycle. And making sure your children never learn that love means physical pain.
