In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon talks with Eagle about escaping her abusive relationship. At first, Eagle was smitten by her future husband, but that quickly changed, as Eagle soon found herself walking on eggshells around him. The most confusing part for Eagle was the good times vs. the bad times, as there were good times. It created a cognitive dissonance, making it much more difficult for Eagle to leave. It's a story of rage, grandiosity, stonewalling, putdowns, plausible deniability, grandiosity, isolation, walking on eggshells, ptsd, support, emotional manipulation, gaslighting, relationship dynamics, self-esteem, disordered eating, financial control, physical abuse, mental health, therapy, coping mechanisms, personal growth, escape plans, depression, anxiety, intimidation, and the healing process. *** CONTENT WARNING - This episode discusses physical abuse and suicidal ideation. *** If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please ⁠⁠⁠click here⁠⁠⁠ or send us an email at [email protected] PODCAST RECOMMENDATIONS: Perfect Prey With Dr. Christine Cocchiola | ⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠ The Covert Narcissism Podcast | ⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠ Something Was Wrong | ⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠ When Dating Hurts Podcast | ⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠ If you or someone you know are experiencing abuse, you are not alone.
