Emotional Incest Issues
Emotional Incest Issues
" One of the most pervasive, traumatic, and damaging dynamics that occurs in families in this dysfunctional, emotionally dishonest society is emotional incest. It is rampant in our society but there is still very little written or discussed about it." “Until we do some healing of our childhood wounds, it is impossible to really understand our adult patterns. If we have never experienced ourselves as independent emotional beings separate from our parents, we can not truly be present for a relationship in our adult lives. Emotional incest is a violation and invasion of our emotional boundaries. It is not sexual abuse, nor is it sexual in nature - although sexual incest is often accompanied by emotional incest. It can however cause great damage to our relationship with our own gender and sexuality.”
