Episode 6: Not a Normal Break Up

Image by Adrien Converse

Break ups are hard. Every end is a kind of death. The sudden abandonment by a narcissistic sociopath (narcopath) is different from other break ups you have had before. Because it is a death of a thousand cuts. Not every victim will experience a psychic death - the death of the ego as a result of finding the foundations on which your life with him was built was a scam.

Firstly, please give yourself a break if you feel utterly traumatised this time. It’s not like you haven’t had a break up before is it?  But this one is different. Very, very different. This is not a normal break up.
