Episode 47: How do I Handle my Guilt of Walking Away?
Thrive After Abuse - Ein Podcast von Dana Morningstar
Kategorien:
There are 3 types of guilt. There's appropriate guilt, inappropriate guilt, and survivor guilt. Guilt can also lead to shame. It can feel selfish to put ourselves first. If a person is causing you hurt, heartache or harm it would be appropriate to distance yourself. Survivor guilt is felt when you are trying to distance yourself from a situation and other people have to stay in it. Ex: a survivor going away to college but leaving younger siblings behind. First figure out which type of guilt it is and why. If you are experiencing survivor or inappropriate guilt examine why you are feeling these types of guilt and reaffirm to yourself that it is okay to move yourself to a place you feel safe and sane.

Do you have a narcissist, sociopath, or psychopath in your life, or think that you might? Are you in (or recently out of) of a relationship that you can only describe as crazy making, toxic, or like a lifetime TV movie? Then you are in the right place.
The live streams are a time where we "meet" every Wednesday at 8:30pm EST to ask questions, and give answers and support. I give my two cents, as do many of the other people in the chat. If you can't make it to the live stream, you can email me your question at: [email protected] I get a lot of questions, but I do my best to bring up and answer as many of them as I can each week. :)

Disclaimer: I am not a therapist, doctor, attorney, or expert in Narcissism...or anything at all really. If anything, I am a student of life, love, behavior and behavior change, and a woman who is dedicated to thriving.
Professionally, I worked as an advocate for victims of domestic violence at a domestic violence shelter, and currently I am a psychiatric nurse. Personally, I have been through two relationships with narcissists, and have been able to not only survive those, but have been able to move forward and thrive.
My goal with these videos is to share all of my lessons learned, as well as to start many important conversations about abuse, and recovery with the hopes that together we can provide the clarity, closure, and healing that we all deserve.
Remember: You are not crazy. You are not alone. And yes, you really can heal from this.
