Yeah I really agree with this!! But other things too that feels hard in my life. Not just abuse, but feeling like I don’t belong here. I’ve felt like suicid was the answer to me. But I kept my life on going, and so far it’s great! ❤️❤️

You ladies are doing great work! These abusers truly go to the same "school". I am so glad you have both found healthy relationships and it does take time to heal. I have been with my now husband for 21 years and I still have PTSD moments about my ex. The best way to get back at a narcissist is to be happy. It drives them crazy. Keep it up. You are both a blessing to this community.
