Ep 47: I Didn’t Escape, I Was Discarded By a Narcissist

Everyone talks about the escape from domestic violence or a narcissistic relationship.  The resources and support are for those trying to escape the abuse.But what if you were not trying to escape?  What if the reason you are now separated from your abuser is that you were discarded?In this episode, we look at the differences in support, perception, and reactions after separation from an abusive partner when the victim is discarded vs someone who left on their own volition and timeline.  Shame can increase when a victim is not the one who has chosen to leave, the grief process may be prolonged or look different, and the belief that a discard means that there will not be post-separation abuse is debunked. Please leave us a review or rating and follow/subscribe to the show.
