Authentically living life without the narcissist. Mother of a beautiful child gone too soon. Living the words: "Thy will be done."

@KayeEllen17 I’m so very sorry for your pain. I lost my “Molly” in November. Lean on your faith in G-d. May your memories of her fill you with joy. 😢

[NotCagedAndFinallyFree @CagedDove20]

@DivorcedDad_USA So strange because this is exactly how I feel! My world has been rocked and yet, the more I thought I knew, the less convicted I became as I opened myself up to the truth of others.

[NotCagedAndFinallyFree @CagedDove20]

So true

[NotCagedAndFinallyFree @CagedDove20]

@wifeofthenarc Stay strong! You’ve got this! Praying 🙏🏼

We don't want to
be rescued
pitied
looked at as
broken
wounded
useless
we rescued
ourselves
we want you
to notice
the strength it took
to get this far
to be ok
and to be ok
when we aren't ok
knowing
it too will pass

I’m ready for this “rocky season” to be over.

[Joyce Meyer @JoyceMeyer]

There are seasons in our life when the rocky soil of our hearts are being plowed up and turned over. It may not feel good...but it is necessary for preparation to be used by God. #JoyceTeaching #ChristianLiving

@NoContactSurviv I just saw that one in MY friends congratulated him on his recent marriage without touching base with me yet. Feels icky, so I’m walking away.

...taking as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; trusting that You will make all things right if I surrender to Your will; so that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with You forever in the next. Amen” -Reinhold Niebuhr

“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardship as a pathway to peace...

@SlowBoiledFrog Good start! I can definitely relate to the post.

[NotCagedAndFinallyFree @CagedDove20]

After divorce, did you decide to keep your married name or change it back? And how difficult was it to get the name changed back on you license, passport, SS card, etc?

[NotCagedAndFinallyFree @CagedDove20]

@_PrincessGaby Wow, he’s good. So proud of you for not buying into it. He’s delusional. Stay strong. I can see you rolling your eyes from here. 🙄

@songbirdsings4 Happy, Happy Birthday!!🎂🎁🎈🎉

[NotCagedAndFinallyFree @CagedDove20]

@NoContactSurviv I see it, but I didn’t always trust it. I kept waiting to see if they were going to show signs of a narc. Didn’t want to be fooled ever again!

[NotCagedAndFinallyFree @CagedDove20]

This was totally me. It took such a long time for me to even know what my favorite color was because I lost so much of myself in this relationship.

[Move Through To Thriving @MThriving]

So many of us denied our TRUE needs, wants, & authenticity for the sake of "POTENTIAL change in the future" by an abuser.

The longer this denial of self extends, the more deeply ingrained, conditioned, bonded, we become.

The #narcissist RELIES on this dynamic.

@rewirethebrain_ It’s funny how similar all our stories are. Mine did the exact same thing insisting on staying with me in the hospital more for his convenience since he worked there. When I needed help, he told me to press the call button since that wasn’t his job.

@Light_Life_Love @cheryl_danner Wow, I seriously needed to hear this today! Beginning to doubt myself and my memories, especially since nex and new supply seem so happy. That’s not real either.
