“Along with AJ Mahari’s podcast, “Surviving BPD Relationship Breakups,” this series by Renee Swanson has helped me a great deal. I am recovering from a toxic romantic relationship with an undiagnosed person with BPD (and co-morbid possibly NPD). Three months after going full No Contact, I am still suffering immensely. Nearly ever aspect of my life was upended and I’m a shell of my former self. I also was raised by a parent who is undiagnosed but who demonstrates many traits of covert narcissism. I have no doubt that the NPD parent programmed me (unintentionally and subconsciously) to seek out a Cluster B romantic partner. These two podcast series validated my feelings, which I desperately needed. They helped me understand my own flaws which make me susceptible to these Cluster B types of people. They showed me I’m not alone, I’m not overreacting, that I wasn’t at fault, and that there is a path to recovery. Renee and AJ have given me hope when I had none. Thank you!”
