@healingwithemilyg: In my relationship, being gaslit every single day made me question whether I could even call what happened to me abuse. Every time I tried to tell him how much he was hurting me, he would either dismiss it, accuse me of overreacting, or spin the narrative and make me feel like a pos for being upset. Eventually, I started apologizing for things I didn’t do and defending him to people who were trying to help me. I internalized the idea that my pain was unimportant and that I was a burden. I healed by learning to trust myself again. I named what he was doing to me- abuse, gaslighting, cheating, lying etc, and started to grieve the man I thought I knew. 5 months later, I have my life back! There is hope for you. #narcissisticabuse #narcissisticabuserecovery #gaslighting #cptsd #HealingJourney

I was threatened, intimidated and harrassed for speaking up by him and his family. It was rough but I wiped my tears and kept speaking up for myself.

I was a bit distracted while we were on the road going home. He asked me if I was ok and I told him yes I just had some thoughts in my mind. He asked me if I wanted to talk about it and I said not at the moment but maybe later. During that time I never ignored him I would answer his questions. when I started to have a conversation with him, he completely ignored me. I even mentioned his name directing the conversation to him and he asked me are you talking to me and I said yes, and he still ignored me. We got to the house and I was going to say goodbye to him. He just took off after he left me and he ignored me the following day. It’s Monday and no call or message. Please tell me what did I do wrong? Or what should I do?

At one point I was rehearsing how to approach this topics but I never actually brought them up bc he would get mad and say things like "im never good enough" and my god! that would break my heart bc I thought I was asking for way too much. I just stop bringing things up altogether and he could feel how I was just there but not there. I didn't have the energy anymore.

Diary of a Recovered Advocate :
Oh man do they. I couldn’t even look up from the ground for almost a year. I interviewed a woman the other day that you could tell had been through it. She struggled to think and speak and it reminded me of me when I got out of an abusive relationship. I hope she finds healing💚

I was told by my ex that if I came out and told people what happened im looking for validation and look weak coming out and looking for pity. But seeing all these people come out about it I want to tell my story

I was pregnant, then postpartum caring for my son completely alone, while suffering from a bad TBI in a foreign country 😭 So it took me a LONG time to see what was happening and then to accept it? omg babe 😭 Now I'm aware, radically accepted the reality and fighting to get out. I'm exhausted. but my point actually was thank you for sharing because without people like you online I don't think I would have been strong enough to accept the reality. Watching you gives me hope.
