Terror, Evil, & Loss of the Self




Jungianthology Podcast show

Summary: with Brenda Donahue, RN, LCSW<br> This episode is part one of the series <a href="http://jungchicago.org/store/index.php?route=product/product&amp;product_id=103">Terror, Evil, and Loss of the Self</a>. In this seminar, Brenda Donahue discusses how survivors of childhood deprivation or physical and sexual abuse routinely describe themselves as freaks, existing outside of normal human relations because they feel evil or bad. This is because the child victim takes the evil of the abuser into him/herself in order to preserve the primary attachment to the parents. This sense of badness or evil becomes a staple of the personality structure, and many survivors spend their lives refusing to be absolved of blame. This course presents basic concepts from analytical psychology and shows how they can be useful in the treatment of post-traumatic stress syndrome. It was recorded in 1994.<br> Brenda Donahue, RN, LCSW is a Jungian analyst in private practice in the western suburbs of Chicago and author of C. G.
