The abuse has carried on only this time you feel less able to protect the children.
They have turned all your friends against you, cut out your family and are trying to destroy your relationship with your children.
You need space and time to recover from the relationship, which has left you anxious, depressed and burned out. But the blows just keep coming. Every email is an attack and you freeze when your phone goes, terrified at what vile bullshit they are going to throw your way this time.
When they are pleasant you feel that knot in the pit of your stomach, “what they up to?”
People think you should just “communicate for the sake of the kids” or “move on”. Yeah right, because it’s that easy!!
No-one understand the turmoil you are and the blows keep on coming. Narcissists really are relentless.
They drag you through court, taking the opportunity to humiliate you and bankrupt you all in one go. Their lies become more and more disgusting and yet they are believed. No matter what you do, the world is shitting on you from a great height.
