Motherhood is Murder

Ep 17 Psychology of Captivity

Valerie Kacian Episode 17

On this week's episode, we wrap up our month of discussing cases of captivity. We will discuss the psychological impact of captivity to both the victim, and the families. Although the cases covered in this podcast included abduction, POW/war crimes, and wrongful conviction, it is important to distinguish that there are many types of captivity states. Domestic abuse situations rank high in the effects of captivity on an individual, as is personal captivity such as substance abuse disorders and mental health concerns.
