brutal.
@mentalhealness your podcast saved my life. Somehow, despite having a Bachelor Degree in Psychology, hundreds of hours spent reading peer-reviewed scientific studies about #NPD, counseling, therapy, prescription medication, substance abuse (i.e. self-medicating) and an undeniable knowing deep in my bones…. It wasn’t until I found your podcast and heard all the awful, brutal truths of narcissism directly from you, a #selfawarenarcissist, that I was no longer able to deny or explain away my partners behavior or intentions. After two years in an undeniably tumultuous relationship, two years of apologies and justifications tumbling from my lips, two years of witnessing all I had been erode into an unrecognizable, hollow shell of my former self… I found the strength and resolve to hold fast on going #NoContact with that motherf*cker. I had promised myself if I held no other boundary, physical abuse was my hard line in the sand and when he laid hands on me two weeks ago, I didn’t hesitate when I called the sheriff. Yet, before they were even at my doorstep, I had already begun justifying his behavior… attempting to find a way to somehow convince the sheriff that their presence wasn’t necessary, the muted shades of blue, purple and red on my throat neatly contained within the shape of his hands were only a coincidence, that I wasn’t in danger or at risk of harm. It wasn’t until 4 days later when he was released on bail and the first thing he texted me was “I can’t believe you did this to ME. I’m pressing charges, you did this on purpose… you know I didn’t touch you. You LIED just to ruin my life.” and I, in a frantic attempt to find something, anything to assure me that this was okay… I stumbled upon your podcast. The episode about the rage of a guilty narcissist was the first one I listened to and holy sh*t, I felt like I was drowning. All the denial, all the blame shifting, the lack of of accountability and empathy he’d always shown me… it was REAL. In 3 days I managed to listen to nearly every episode, gaining a little more confidence with each one. It’s been 13 days since he assaulted me and although there’s still an incredibly painful rawness to it, I’ve been able to #greyrock like a champ. Thank you, for lifting the curtain and allowing me to see that the great Wizard of Oz was really just a narcissist.

I found Lee right when I was gearing up to leave my abuser. His content helped me so much to get out, stay out, and start sharing my story without fear. (Thelindsaygoodman).
