In this bonus episode, we will explore one of the most deadly emotional games that our toxic family members play — the emotional game of gossip.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Not all gossip is created equally.
✅ Our emotionally abusive family members use gossip to avoid looking at their part in any negative interaction.
✅ Signs you’re being gossiped about.
✅ In psychologically abusive families, gossip is used primarily to expend negative energy where talking poorly about you or others brings your family members feelings of power and satisfaction.
✅ Psychologically Abusive family members who gossip about you feel totally empowered when trashing you.
✅ Psychologically Abusive family members love creating negative triangles between you and others.
