What does a narcissistic mother do to a child?Did you know that childhood trauma can start as early as in the womb? Imagine that a young woman of eighteen becomes a mother and because of the short traumatic life she has lived, she has no idea how to connect with her own emotions, let alone those of a tiny baby. Because she abandoned herself long ago, she is unable to be present for this child’s needs. Because her own body has been used and abused, she is unable to take out her breast to feed a crying, screaming child. And because she is highly traumatised she is unable to provide a space in her womb that is free of trauma. This is Dr Melanie Salmon’s story. Please come and listen to what she has to say. It's the story of growing up with a mother who has narcissistic personality disorder. Dr Melanie Salmon’s story meant that she has spent a lifetime recovering from the trauma of childhood. She spent many years in talk therapy and when she realised this was never going to fully get to the root of her issues, she developed her own healing modality where she is changing lives.
