Post Romantic Stress Disorder: John Bradshaw is right on with his insights
Date: 10/5/2006 10:05:50 AM ( 18 y ago)
Spent two hours listening to John Bradshaw
last night, who was speaking at the 2006 Annual Symposium
presented by the Meadows, an highly effective
retreat center for recovering our lives.
The Meadows can be reached at

800.-MEADOWS, 800.632.3697.
John Bradshaw in on the staff of Mellody House:

The Symposium handed out some extensive notes:
Here is one quote from John Bradshaw:
"The most destructive impact of abuse and neglect
lie in the area of traumatic or dysnfunctional attachment.
Attachment is an innate need and human beings
are pre-programmed to attach and bend in an an empathic
mutuality with their primary source figure.
There is no great signal of Post Romantic Stress Disorder
then the inability to really care and connect with
another human being.
John Bowlby in his famous work on attachment
clearly established that those who are not attached
(isolated or emotionally dissociated)
those who are over attached (enmeshed)
from a threat to the survival of the species."
I would go so far as to say, they are a threat
to World Peace.
Peace begins through each of us declaring
peace in our own lives.
This will bring us to the opportunities to work "through
Family of Origin Counter-Dependency" as Bradshow
identifies this.
Who among our World Leaders has had a good chance
to work through their stuff, and not project
infantile behavior on the world stage?
What is War, but an expression of Adults on the outside
working through sandbox behaviors from unmet needs?
