I'm still healing from it.

It'll be a lifelong process, but the hardest part was leaving and believing I'll be okay again one day.

I've been away from the narc for 8 years, and the healing is a lifelong journey - for me. I can't just 'get over' that trauma. I truly only just started my healing 3 months ago. Trying to be a better momma for my kiddo, starts with healing myself & being a better version of me. ❤️❤️ Love & hugs to all here who are working on yourselves for the better.

The healing I have no idea, it's been years out of mine and dropping my guard and trusting anyone is fairly recent (oh I'll need a coat will i 'meteorologist ' if that is your real...) But not getting hurt again that is something pretty awesome. Of the many good things that came out of cutting that particular cancer out of my daughter's and my life is that it's alot easier to see those toxic elements without the usual blood sweat and self recrimination bs. That first red flag goes up and you can just have that realization: "oh I've seen this behaviour before and *insert swearing here. And here. Probably here also." The healing sucks and is long. The not going through it again is great and can last forever.
