If You've Ever Felt Like Your Abuse "Wasn't Bad Enough," Watch This

If you've ever wondered whether what you went through was "bad enough" to count as narcissistic abuse, this video is for you. I'm responding to a clip from the Begin Again podcast where a narcissistic abuse expert makes the case that victims shouldn't use the term unless their ex has a clinical diagnosis — and I want to explain why, from a trauma-informed lens, that view can do more harm than good. I cover why trauma is measured by impact rather than diagnosis, what happens when survivors are told their experience doesn't count, and what to look for instead of waiting for a label that may never come. 🚩 Download the free 50 Red Flags Checklist here: https://salltsisters.com/red-flags-ch... 🗓️ Book a free 30-min chat with me here: https://tidycal.com/salltsisters/30mi... #narcissisticabuse #narcissisticabuserecovery #traumainformed
