What Does It Feel Like, Growing Up with Addiction, Abuse, and Mental Illness?

This week, Ronni and Jennie share the second chapter of the audio version of their book, “Healing Begins With Us: Breaking the Cycle of Trauma and Abuse and Rebuilding the Sibling Bond,” where they focus on what it felt like to be young children in a home with addiction, abuse, and mental illness. Though every family is different, the dynamics generated by this kind of dysfunction are remarkably similar across households and will feel familiar to other trauma survivors. Listeners may want to go back to Season 3, Episode 9 (May 28, 2022) to hear the first chapter before listening to this episode.
