from The Mental Healness Podcast · host Lee Hammock

"Just go No Contact!" feels like a slap in the face when you have shared custody, a business, or legal ties to a narcissist.For many survivors, complete severance isn't an option. But that doesn't mean you have to remain their emotional punching bag. As a self-aware narcissist, I know exactly how we use children, finances, and property as leverage to keep getting "supply" long after the relationship ends.In this video, I’m introducing the "O.N. Contact" (Only Necessary Contact) method. This is the strategic evolution of "Gray Rock," designed specifically for those who are forced to communicate with their abuser.All My Links (Coaching, Courses, Merch): https://link.me/mentalhealnessIN THIS VIDEO, WE DISCUSS:The Narcissist’s Leverage: Why they use the kids or money to bait you into emotional arguments.Defining "Necessary": How to strip every ounce of personality and emotion out of your communication.The "Hostile Coworker" Mindset: Shifting from "ex-partner" to "business associate that I hate."Communication Protocols: Why you must move everything to email or parenting apps (and never phone calls).The Extinction Burst: How they will react when you stop feeding them supply through co-parenting chaos.You can't always leave the situation, but you can leave the dynamic.RESOURCES & SUPPORT: 📚 Self Love Journal: https://a.co/d/70L3zKb 📖 Kid’s Book ("It's Not Your Fault"): https://a.co/d/2WNtdKJ 📧 Newsletter: subscribepage.io/mentalhealnessWHO IS LEE HAMMOCK?
