Don’t Give Up When the Loneliness After an Abusive Relationship with a Narcissist Hits
You can make it to the other side
Why is loneliness so much worse after an abusive relationship with a narcissist?
The narcissist has used everything in his bag of tricks to pull you into his world and mold you into the person he wants you to be. When you finally leave you are left wondering what just happened and how to go on with your life.
How do they do this? How do they get you to a place where your every thought is about them and what would make them happy? You no longer know who you are and what you want with your life.
After you leave you are hit with loneliness and despair. Your life feels like it is no longer worth living. You want to give up or go back.
You have been through hell and now all the residual effects of the relationship are working against you to keep you captive. Your body and mind are screaming out for the hormones involved in the cycle of abuse. You are like an addict looking for the next hit. You didn’t realize you would have to go “cold-turkey” from this person. You thought your life would be all roses and sunshine after getting away. You didn’t know how much work was ahead of you in this journey to healing
