Are There Stages of Healing from Narcissistic Abuse?
Narcissistic abuse is a subtle, insidious form of psychological manipulation that can leave deep, often invisible scars on its victims. Perpetrated by individuals with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), this abuse systematically erodes self-esteem, autonomy, and emotional stability. Recovering from such profound trauma is not merely about healing but embarking on a transformative journey toward self-discovery and empowerment. Understanding the stages of healing is crucial for anyone navigating this complex process, as each phase brings its unique challenges and opportunities for growth.

Exploration of the psychological underpinnings of Dark Empaths
Getting Through the Dark: Narcissists vs. Dark Empaths: Understanding, Identifying, and Liberating I have always been fascinated and intrigued by the limitless potential humans hold, which propels us on the path of progression. The odyssey of transforming primitiveness into a touch of modernism is the beauty of the prowess of the human mind. In the vast and complex tapestry that constitutes human relationships, the delicate interplay between these contrasting forces often presents itself as an enigma. Have you ever experienced the captivating yet perplexing dynamics between light and shadow, empathy and narcissism? Within this intricate landscape, dark empaths and narcissists stand out as compelling and enigmatic figures, each characterized by a distinct array of traits and behaviours. On the other hand, susceptible people (HSP), recognized for their deep emotional awareness and sensitivity to the feelings of others, often find themselves traversing the challenging terrain of relationships with these fascinating, yet sometimes troubling, personalities. This journey can be both enlightening and bewildering, as HSPs strive to understand and navigate the emotional landscapes shaped by the contrasting influences of empathy and narcissism.

Hey Kiddo, Can You Help Me Water My Patience Tree?
Why Can't We Just Be Born With Patience? My 6-year-old has the patience of an energetic old lady who acts much younger than she is and has NO time to spare. Her impatience spews out in huffs and teenage-level attitude. My 4-year-old has the patience of a 4-year-old, and her impatience comes out as hurt feelings and bursts of tears. I don't even want to talk about the toddler, whose frustration and impatiences comes out as flopping backward on the ground in Shakespearean drama, usually resulting in a solid THUD from his head connecting to the hardwood floor. I had to buy a protective pillow for him, for fear of his brain cells.

From Hoarding to Minimalism
About 10 years ago, I was happily married and celebrating my third or fourth anniversary in our home watching an episode of the show "Hoarders". There were lots of jokes made by viewers of the show such as "Whenever I feel like I have too much or I shouldn't go shopping, I just watch an episode of Hoarders and I feel fine again." I admit I was doing just that and it was no joke, it worked like a charm. If someone criticized my shopping outings or spending habits, I'd watch another episode of "Hoarders" and since my home didn't look like theirs, I was fine. If someone criticized me for one of my collection obsessions (craft supplies, dolls, shoes, dvds), I'd simply watch another episode of "Hoarders" and since my home didn't smell of dead cats and rats and I didn't have to climb over a mountain of dvds to get to the bathroom, I was fine. There was no way I was overspending or overcollecting or overshopping. Right?
