Childhood emotional neglect. It does exist. I recall there was some debate in another thread. (Quite a while ago and not here) Someone said it doesn’t exist. Sorry.. that’s just wrong.

Mostly invisible.. unless someone is..

Mostly uncared about

Mostly unhugged

Neglect.

It’s a killer

I was abused too. And I’m not just feeling sorry for myself. “My” therapist said
“poor hard done by thing” when I was describing a horrible violation. HE violated me too I have dumped him and moved forward. He still haunts my dreams.

I experienced childhood emotional neglect as well. My mother had alcohol use disorder and narcissistic personality disorder. She was focused on herself.
