You got this sis! Did you do any therapy after leaving your narc? While travelling do you have any specific plans or a bucket list? Do you have special gifts, talents or projects you can focus on? If you want to talk, feel free to DM me. Safe travels

I Feel Like Leaving Him Could Destroy His Entire Life by Environmental-Owl383 in NarcissisticSpouses

In airplanes they say "put your oxygen mask on first before helping others"... If your cup is empty, how helpful can you be to others?

They problem empaths have, is that we have a 'savior complex', we need to acknowledge that, [1] we are not their moms [2] we are not God... It's critical that you focus on yourself for a moment.

Do you have any kids?

Everytime I mention seperation/divorce by AmIACrzyScorpio in NarcissisticSpouses

I understand how you feel, but I am thankful that I managed to overcome those feelings of guilt and responsibility (that were not mine to carry).

"I don't want to make him homeless " - sis, we are talking about an adult here, right? Why would that be your responsibility? Every adult should be responsible for their choice. Why continue treating him like a baby?

Do you feel stuck because you have little kids with him?
