@greg.healoutloud: The moment you stop carrying the role that was assigned to you, the family system starts reacting. Because in dysfunctional families, the peacekeeper, fixer, scapegoat, or emotional caretaker often serves a purpose. They absorb the tension. They carry the blame. They keep the peace. They make the system feel stable. So when you stop playing that role, it can look like you're the one causing the problem. But you're not causing the dysfunction. You're exposing it. If this resonates and you're ready to rebuild your identity, self-trust, and life outside of the role you were given, you can book a free breakthrough call through the link in my bio. #cptsd #scapegoat #toxicfamily #narcissisticabuse #HealingJourney
