I’m Trying To Get Some Empathy, But Feel Like a Circus Freak - a podcast by Robert Weiss, PhD, MSW and Tami VerHelst

Dr. Rob and Tami first address a wife whose SA husband has trouble comforting her when she’s upset or showing emotion, and she feels like a circus freak when asking for her emotional needs to be met. They discuss how empathy is both practiced and learned and how addiction recovery can help you learn to cope with your feelings and seek out true connections. They then take questions about building trust back up with your partner once you’ve broken it, why someone that is an SA may retract their admittance that they have an issue and if all sex addicts have had childhood trauma.
