Topics
Andrea Dunlop:本期节目探讨了代理型孟乔森综合征施害者的特征、预警信号、成因及治疗可能性。节目中采访了该领域的两位专家,并分享了个人经历和对该问题的思考。她反思了自己对姐姐的期待,以及对施害者能否被治疗的看法转变。她强调了理解施害者行为的连续性,而非非黑即白。 Dr. Marc Feldman:代理型孟乔森综合征本身并非精神疾病,而是虐待行为,但总是与虚构障碍有关。施害者寻求情感满足,如关注、同情和支持。由于施害者通常拒绝研究,对病因知之甚少。许多施害者有自我虚构障碍史,并伴有严重的人格障碍。欺骗、冲动和判断力差是常见特征。病理性说谎使施害者难以承认错误。一些施害者在分娩并发症后与孩子缺乏情感联结,或孩子被认为不完美。分娩并发症或早产婴儿并非风险因素,施害者会利用这些情况。该行为具有强迫性或成瘾性,互联网加剧了这种行为。 Dr. Mary Sanders:代理型孟乔森综合征施害者的治疗非常困难,关键在于承认自己的行为。承认行为的阻碍因素包括来自家人、朋友和法律的报复。一些施害者能够成功接受治疗并与家人团聚。施害者自身的虚构行为和人格障碍会增加治疗难度。严重和危及生命的虐待行为更难治疗。家庭团聚需要施害者、配偶和孩子的共同参与和配合,并建立严格的安全措施。施害者可能采用隔间化等防御机制来应对自己的行为,并合理化自己的行为。一些施害者可能会相信自己编造的疾病。施害者并非怪物,他们需要帮助,他们的行为是可以改变的。成功的治疗案例显示,这些女性通常在成长过程中缺乏权力感,并使用欺骗手段来获得关注。童年时期装病以逃避学校的经历可能与施害行为有关。 Detective Mike Weber:医源性儿童虐待被低报,需要更多关注。社会对母亲形象的认知是调查此类案件的障碍。刑事定罪是确保儿童安全的唯一途径。施害者知道自己的行为是错误的,应该受到法律制裁。从侦探的角度来看,寻求关注和寻求爱作为动机是相似的。应该将施害者视为需要帮助的人,同时也要保护儿童。尽早发现和干预对施害者和受害者都有益。医源性儿童虐待施害者的行为难以预测,调查需要时间和耐心。希望未来能够提高对医源性儿童虐待的认识和处理能力。

Shownotes Transcript

Andrea delves deep into her questions around the psychopathology of Munchausen by Proxy perpetrators. Floored by the similarities in the many cases she’s researched, she talks to two of the world's foremost experts on the disorder—Dr. Marc Feldman and Dr. Mary Sanders—about the characteristics, warning signs, and causes of the disorder that has upended the lives of so many people Andrea has spoken to throughout the course of the podcast. Why would a mother ever do this? What do they get from it? And most importantly, what could be done to stop them? Is it possible for someone who does these things to get treatment?
