Debrief | Manufactured Responsibility in Doris’s Story

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon debriefs Doris’s story through the lens of manufactured responsibility. Her abuser presented his violence as something Doris could prevent by managing his “triggers.” He praised her as the person who could help him reach his potential, then drew her into comforting him after he hurt her.Brandon explores how accusations and constantly changing demands kept Doris focused on what she could do differently. He also examines why fear for her daughter made leaving feel dangerous, even as staying meant living with his abuse.CONTENT WARNING - We graphically discuss physical abuse in this episode. This episode is sponsored by Rebound Health.
