Scapegoat's Role in Family - Why This "Problem Child" Was Anything But #shorts #Narcissist
#WhyNobodyBelievesTheScapegoat The scapegoat is the family member who seems to always get blamed, rejected and misunderstood. They get branded as the “problem child” even when the real dysfunction lies elsewhere. Their honesty and sensitivity makes them a target. They get repeatedly accused of things they didn’t do, just to relieve others of guilt. This leaves them carrying feelings of defectiveness, abandonment and self-doubt. If this resonates with you, you may be the scapegoat of a #narcissistic or #dysfunctional family system. You are not the problem. Being the scapegoat is incredibly painful and isolating. But there is a way out. #ScapegoatsRoleInFamily Blamed for problems The scapegoat is blamed for all the family's problems and dysfunctions, even issues they had nothing to do with. They become the #scapegoat who absorbs the toxicity so others don't take responsibility. Criticized, rejected, blamed Not only blamed, scapegoats are constantly criticized, rejected, and blamed by family. They're treated as the "problem child" deserving hostility. Absorbs family's toxicity By taking blame, the scapegoat absorbs the negativity and toxicity, allowing family to avoid confronting issues. Common Traits: Highly sensitive Scapegoats tend to be highly #sensitive people, more emotionally attuned and affected by conflict. Their sensitivity makes them vulnerable. Truth teller Scapegoats call out family dysfunction rather than pretend everything is fine. Their honesty threatens the family's denial. Sees through denial In families of denial, the scapegoat sees through the facade. This threatens the family system. Reacts to dysfunction Scapegoats react to dysfunction rather than pretend everything is fine. The family punishes their reactions. Allows parents to avoid responsibility Having a scapegoat child allows parents to avoid responsibility for behaviors, flaws and poor parenting. They can project everything onto the scapegoat. #LifeAsTheScapegoat Carries family's shame The scapegoat is forced to carry all the family’s shame, while others get to feel falsely virtuous. This causes deep shame for just existing. Isolated and alienated Scapegoats become isolated and alienated within the family. Their confidence and self-worth suffers. Emotional needs neglected The scapegoat’s emotional needs get completely neglected. Their pain is ignored and they’re denied compassion. #ImpactOnTheScapegoat Set boundaries Learn to set boundaries around which family members you interact with, and how much access you give them to you. Limit contact with toxic individuals. Separate your identity Work on separating your identity and self-worth from the scapegoat role that was imposed on you. You are not defective or the problem. Find supportive connections Seek out supportive therapeutic and social connections of people who see your true self-worth. Prioritize these over toxic family bonds. Release shame Actively reject the shame that you carried for your family. You did not deserve it. Writing can help purge shame. The life of the scapegoat is a painful one. But with understanding, boundaries and reclaiming your truth, you can heal and escape the role you were forced into. You have value. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Join this channel to get access to perks: / @recoverthyself ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Watch the Full version of this Video at: • Scapegoat : Why Nobody Believes the #...
