Narcissistic abuse strips away your identity, which means it also strips away your ability to recognize your own needs. How do we change this?

“Have you ever thought, ‘I know better… so why don’t I feel better yet?” “You don’t heal by knowing more.
You heal by doing something different — consistently.”

So here’s the next thing nobody talks about.
Understanding what happened to you…
is not the same as healing from it.
Insight helps you make sense of the past.
But insight alone doesn’t change patterns.
And that’s why so many intelligent, capable women say:
“I understand it now…
So why do I still feel stuck?”
This is where people get frustrated.
They’ve read the books.
Listened to the podcasts.
Watched the videos.
Done therapy.
And they start to wonder:
“What am I missing?”
Here’s the answer — and nobody is saying this clearly:
Insight lives in the thinking part of the brain.
Healing happens in the experiencing part.
And if no one teaches your system a new experience…
It will keep running the old one.

🧠 SURVIVOR-SAFE BRAIN EXPLANATION
Let me make this really simple.
You can understand that a hot stove burns you…
But your hand only learns by touching it once.
The brain works the same way.
Talking and learning are helpful —
but the nervous system changes through practice, not information.
That’s not a failure.
That’s biology
