They want you silent and isolated. And NO this isn't the same as when a victim of abuse asks the abuser to stop slandering them and telling stories without context to make their victim look bad. #covertabuse #traumabond #traumabondrecovery #abusiverelationship #toxicrelationship #narcissist #narcissism #liar #manipulation #powerandcontrol #rebuilding #selfworth #slander

If you know, you know. People will say you should just leave if this is your feeling when he comes home - but it doesn't factor in trauma bonds, isolation, financial abuse, having kids with them or any of the other reasons victims feel trapped and cannot simply walk out the door. This all said, leaving is the goal. And I help women plan their exit and overcome all the emotional challenges of feeling so stuck. Let's work together to heal from abuse. #covertabuse #traumabond #traumabondrecovery #abusiverelationship #narcissist #narcissism #liar #powerandcontrol #narcissism #manipulation #fear #coercivecontrol

Replying to @christoursavior19 a narcissist lacks the attachment to their own kids and will use them to punish mom, or not want the responsibility. They were only there to facilitate controlling mom, and once the relationship ends they have no use for the kids anymore. #covertabuse #traumabond #traumabondrecovery #abusiverelationship #toxicrelationship #narcissist #powerandcontrol #powerandcontrol #narcissist #narcissism #liar #rebuilding #coparenting #FamilyCourt #custody #divorce

This has been a fantastic read all around. The Nature and Nurture of Narcissism by Dr. Peter Salerno. #covertabuse #traumabond #traumabondrecovery #abusiverelationship #toxicrelationship #narcissist #narcissism #liar #manipulation #powerandcontrol #rebuilding

Strangulation is one of the most dangerous forms of abuse—surviving even once increases the risk of homicide by over 500%. Men who strangle are using it as a method of control and dominance, not just a physical attack. We often downplay its seriousness because there are no visible injuries, but the long-term damage is real and can be fatal. Catch this episode of Breaking Free From Narcissistic Abuse Podcast to learn why strangulation should never be ignored. #traumabondrecovery #abusiverelationship #traumabond #DomesticViolenceAwareness #StrangulationAbuse #BreakTheCycle #PodcastEpisode #abuseeducation

Jokes about domestic violence against women normalize abusive behavior by trivializing its seriousness, reinforcing harmful stereotypes, and desensitizing people to the issue. This creates a culture where abuse is more likely to be ignored or excused, enabling real-life perpetrators and silencing victims. #traumabond #abusiverelationship #narcissist #powerandcontrol #traumabondrecovery #joke #violence #domesticviolenceawareness
