Complete transcript: Why Parentified Daughters Carry Guilt

The holistic psychologist: The parentified daughter's most felt emotion is guilt. I'll give you an example: last minute her mom calls and asks her to come over for a family dinner. She already has plans so she said she can't come over. Her mom sounds disappointed and might say something like well we haven't seen her in a while or she might start talking about her age and how she won't be around forever.

After she gets off the phone she's consumed with guilt and our nervous system goes into fight or flight. Even though she's had these plans for a while and her mom called last minute. She almost feels like she has to cancel her plans to please her mom. Or to avoid the guilt trip that she'll face for taking time for herself.

This is really a theme for the parentified daughter. She believes it's her role to never upset or disappoint anyone. And she'll rearrange her life over and over again, to make sure she fulfills that role, even at the cost of her own well being.
