A member asked:
Is there an effective treatment for emotional masochism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Professional help: Emotional masochism is a deeply intrapsychic issue. Seek out a psychoanalytic psychotherapist with a great deal of experience in personality disorders and intrapsychic issues. Object relations and self psychologists may have the necessary background/skills to help. It will take time, perhaps a year or more of intense therapy.
