What have we been talking about lately? Facades of Conformity as they overlap with CPTSD, RSD, and life-destruction. Free Video! summary Let's talk about environmental mental illness, Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), and the Facades of Conformity (FOCs) that individuals often adopt in various \"supervisory\" relationships. The discussion delves into the emotional toll of FOCs, emphasizing the detrimental effects of emotional exhaustion. takeaways Facades of Conformity are often used in abusive relationships to prevent loss. Hiding one's true self diminish the resource of emotional health. Self-enhancement motives (incl RSD and survival) drive the need for conformity. Emotional exhaustion can deteriorate life quality. Authenticity is crucial for mental well-being. Impression management can be life-costing. Political and social pressures exacerbate conformity issues. Working on rejection dysphoria is essential for healing FOC patterns. keywords mental health, Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, facades of conformity, emotional exhaustion, CPTSD, authenticity, relationships, environmental mental illness, self-esteem, trauma Hosted on Acast.
