Season 1 Episode 5: Dirty Dozen

Verbal aggression literally changes the structure of a child’s developing brain. The work of Martin Teicher and his colleagues discovered, and it's very scary indeed. We can “thank” evolution for this adaptability  since the brain goes into survival mode, retooling so as to deal with an environment full of stress and deprivation. It will not surprise you that these effects are lasting.  Science backs up the observation not just pointing to the association between parental verbal abuse and anxiety and depression over the lifespan, but with “self-criticism.” What is self-criticism? It’s the mental habit of attributing all bad things that happen to you to global, stable, internal factors, many of which may echo your mother or father’s words such as “I failed because I am stupid and incompetent” or “Nothing good will ever happen to because I’m not good enough” or “I deserve bad things because there’s nothing good about me.”

If you observe or experience abuse or criminal activity please seek help and report it.
