"I Loved Boarding School" | The Psychology of Truth, Denial or Betrayal Trauma | Piers Cross

from An Evolving Man Podcast · host Piers Cross

 Charles Spencer's new book about his boarding school experiences has now been released. You can find it here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Audible-A-Very-Private-School/dp/B0CKWD9Z6M/ref=sr_1_1?crid=320MHELEHEKLN&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.81PdazFBg3A7AleHD-lYQrr8QZXqwIxFOeUQIONnMvaAHp1OOHjwnFPEdjHXdQsGwITpT_DRzoK2CZeOTQBf6pju9k8AlNsIdXDgeRRo2A2zAGIM2OTF9_Yos8wdiXjjj3tSuHppUsQHf2crCpWYHg.w7cW417aM6Ih1AMJTOvr17CVXDJUf89cXELsYnBtbPw&dib_tag=se&keywords=charles+spencer+a+very+private+school&qid=1710330302&sprefix=charles+sp%2Caps%2C262&sr=8-1 On Monday of this week I came across this article from the Telegraph about a fellow pupil and how "it did him the world of good": https://www.telegraph.co.uk/columnists/2024/02/17/boarding-school-princess-diana-earl-spencer-maidwell-hall/ I also received an email from the wife of an ex-boarder last week. In it she talks about how her husband claims to have "loved boarding school". But has real difficulties with emotions and relationsSo today I wanted to speak to those who loved boarding. I see there are 3 camps. 1. The truth, they loved it and it was good for them. 2. Denial, those that have suppressed or dissociated from what happened 3. Betrayal trauma and the work of Jennifer Freyd. Many of us were betrayed at boarding school and it creates amnesia according to Dr Freyd's work. Warm regards, Piers ---Piers is an author and a men's transformational coach and therapist who works mainly with trauma, boarding school issues, addictions and relationship problems. He also runs online men's groups for ex-boarders, retreats and a podcast called An Evolving Man. He is also the author of How to Survive and Thrive in Challenging Times.
