“You can heal & thrive” – Actor Ninalowo Bolanle advocates against emotional abuse

Actor Ninalowo Bolanle has shed light on the devastating repercussions of emotional abuse.

The actor, famed for his appearances in numerous Nollywood films, highlighted how narcissists manipulate and control their victims by isolating them, resulting in a loss of self-identity and increased reliance on the abuser.

He emphasized the serious effects of such maltreatment, which included sadness, substance misuse, and a loss of inner child energy.

He wrote on Instagram: “With isolation, a narciss.st puts you in a state of learned helplessness where you have complete control. Resistance doesn’t work anymore.

“You’ve given up regaining control and have gone into survival mode. At this point, you might start to get depressed and feel incompetent or even dabble in substance abuse to escape your reality.

“Now the narciss.st have you where they want you: complete dependence and a total loss of self-identity.

“That inner child energy you once had is gone. You exist for them. But you can heal & thrive! You are not alone Share your view or opinion. Namaste.”
