For decades, the word codependency shaped how we understood toxic relationship cycles — but it was never quite enough. In this video, Ross Rosenberg explains why he redefined the concept as Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLDD), a trauma-based framework that better explains the root causes of codependency and why recovery often fails without addressing them. Ross takes you back to his early years as a psychotherapist, how The Human Magnet Syndrome was born, and what inspired the Self-Love Recove...

He explains that while it can be difficult, it is entirely possible by focusing on key mental and social strategies.

The Self-Love Recovery Podcast ·

2025/07/31

In this episode, Ross Rosenberg breaks down one of the most emotionally disorienting and dangerous tactics used by narcissists: the Humanization Technique. This subtle yet deeply manipulative behavior emerges when a narcissist feels they're about to lose control — suddenly becoming vulnerable, tearful, or apologetic in ways that evoke intense sympathy from their codependent partner. But is it real… or a trap? Ross shares how this tactic can trigger overwhelming empathy in those with Self-Lov...

The Self-Love Recovery Podcast ·

2025/07/03

In this episode I explain the term cognitive dissonance, and how it can be someone's friend, especially is they are suffering from codependency or what I call self-love deficit disorder. The basic definition: it is the uncomfortable mental feeling you get when your thoughts, beliefs, or actions don't match. Your brain doesn’t like contradictions, so it tries to resolve the tension. For example, if you believe eating healthy is important but eat junk food, you might feel guilty or uneasy...
