This a beautiful platform, am an upcoming counselor psychologist. Am learning so much. Thankyou Karen you are beautiful soul. Sharing relieves a lot and, is half solved.
Hi Karen. CONGRATULATIONS on your 4 years of sobriety! You are a miracle . Awesome share. I identify with your story apart from the marriage part. Thank you for saying narcissists leave you and that they think they are punishing you. It puts things into perspective. Now is the time to practice self love. No need to stay with an emotionally unavailable man, pathologically jealous person and a man who belittles you. I was almost going to be married to a narcissist. It would have been a facade. I put up with the toxic man for several months . Fortunately I asked him to leave my house. However after some days I asked him back but he refused. I even begged him. This shows that I also need to love myself. I did not feel safe and happy with this guy because he began to demean me and he was chatting with women in his phone. I hope to stay away from toxic people. I empathize with people a lot. Maybe that's why I attracted this kind of people. I must remember I am loved and that I am worthy of love. I am responsible for my happiness and serenity. Congratulations on qualifying as an addiction counsellor. Thank you for having the courage to speak out about depression and sharing your hope and strength. Thank you for reminding me that I have some assets. I am not a bad person. You are wonderful. No words to express my gratitude when you said that about narcissists. So my ex boyfriend thinks he his punishing me. I spend so much time cooking for him until I had no time for meetings. Now I have all the time to recover. Thanks Karen. God bless you! Happy New Year!
Thanks you so much for taking the time to watch the video and write a comment. You are worthy of love and worthy of being treated right. I like to think that we teach people how to treat us. You are right, we are each responsible for our own happiness and for our mistakes too. Narcissism is a very complex Personality Disorder and what happens with narcissists, they think they are ok, and that we are the ones that are sick. I am so glad you are out of that relationship. Love and light to you.
Thank you for watching. I wasn't alone,I had some great people who walked with me during the darkest times. I am strong, I've had to be, but I have no regrets, about any of it. SO grateful for your comment and that you took the time to watch the video. Love and light to you.
My sister there's only one person who can love you unconditionally and that's Jesus he was already rejected for you he loves you so much invite him in your life, hurt people, hurt people. Broken people break people. am sorry you went through this God bless you.
And you’re still standing here today? Girl, God has a purpose for you! You’re an inspiration, your experience, as hard as it was/is, is going to bless so many. You’re protected, and divine Love, God will see your healing all the way, and you’re already a great/positive testament to many. May our dear Lord continue strengthening you, guiding and guarding you! You’re Strong!!!
Thank you jotaya. I am still standing! Not just surviving but thriving! :-) My intention in sharing my story is to let others know that they are not alone in times of suffering and that we can all conquer our demons, if we put our mind to it. We are never alone. Practising gratitude has kept me positive. Thank you for watching the video. love and light to you.
you are a great woman not only did you stand alone on your two feet and make powerful decisions to heal yourself, you have also come out and shared your story which allows others to also share and change their lives. life is not ment to be easy as we only grow in pain but keep looking within yourself for those answers and you will find joy with each discovery of yourself.
Thank you so much for your wonderful uplifting comment. I share my story in the hope that it will help others to come out of their darkness. You're right, there is much growth in pain, but the pain does not have to define us.
Wow you are so bold and courageous for this. Thank you for your strength. It will be well. Jesus is ready to change your life and give you peace that transcends human understanding. Hugs:)
So bold of you Ma'am it's a process. May your walls be built again. But it will help someone out here. For everyone who's telling her what to do, she has figured out. Have u had depression? Have you been where she has been? Pray for her, but pls don't tell her what to do! She will figure it out if she hasn't already done so. Depression is painful and you cant try to explain its complex. Alcoholism is a symptom what lies beneath it is a giant!
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to leave such a lovely comment. I can't tell you how much all the comments mean to me. I like to think that my walls are now down completely. I walk with no shame, proud of who I have become. Depression is a beast, an invisible beast and we as a community need to do more to create awareness and acceptance regarding mental illness. Love and light to you.

Woow Glory to God you are truly finishing well mum .. My mum parents have been alcoholic for ages I love them and my everyday wish is that they may enjoy sobriety in their old age how may I get your help please
NARC's with hoovering techniques... And gaslighters....narcs makes you question your existence... Slowly you start sinking into depression.... I honestly understand,
They do indeed make you question your existence and your sanity. Depression is but a part of it, there are many other after effects too. We need, as a community, to have more conversations about these issues, for they affect us all in one way or another. Thank you for watching the video.
Your comment reveals you..Get some help Frost&sort yourself out before you ruin yourself..Life is truly beautiful ..Kids are not ojects that can be taken off you...When they're ready or willing they will seek you out..
You are such a strong person Karen! Congratulations on your sobriety and on all the wins you have been able to achieve. Keep winning gal!
Thank you for your lovely words Betty!
Thank you for taking the time to watch this video. And thank you for your kind comment. I plan on winning for a long time to come!
Sharing is the beginning of a healing. You are strong.
