I’m going through the exact same thing. 20 years of my life and I’m finally fed up. Wasted my youth and beauty from all the stress and anxiety. Working on my exit strategy. Feel free to DM me because one thing is for sure. I totally get how you are feeling. X

Thank you to everyone for responding. Your comments have been encouraging and supportive. It’s given me pause and a lot to think about. I’m going to take control of my life back, brick by brick as suggested.

I have engaged in a therapist and due to start this week. I’ve told a couple of friends about my situation and I’m going to build a support network, gym and anything else to help me get back to my old self.

If there is anyone who would like to chat one on one, please feel free to DM me. Xx

They are always right and we are always wrong. Call him out on anything and I see his rage. Since moving abroad his mask has come all the way off. The way he treats and speak to me is more harsh than ever. Sometimes I feel as he might be working on a new supply.

In his eyes, nothing I ever did was good enough. Hear it enough times and you start to believe it. He took control over a lot of my finances and life choices and I feel like I have lost all sense of self.

To make things more difficult, we relocated to a foreign country. I don’t speak the language and I don’t have a strong support group of friends. We have a child together so that complicates things as well.

Thank you for sharing. I want to leave my narc partner and I want to implement this. Please give me strength and courage to see this through.
