Get Your Life Back!
As you begin the healing process from narcissistic abuse and the narcissistic fog begins to lift, you can now focus on yourself and getting your life back.
Going No Contact After Narcissistic Abuse
One of the vital steps you need to take is to go no contact. This might not be easy if you have children together, but some apps can be used as a safer way to communicate.
Block them on social media. You do not need to know what they are doing, and they do not need to know what you are doing. It is no one’s business. This is part of going no contact.
When to Use the Gray Rock Method
Now, if you do have to meet with them, using gray rock is best. Be stoic. Give short, emotionless responses. They will seek a reaction from you. Do not give them one. Stay strong.
The next step is not easy, but necessary. I say this because you may be filled with uncertainty, or maybe thinking they will come back. After what they put you through, do you really want that?
Reclaiming Your Space
Remove them from your contacts. Removing their contact information is liberating; you won’t see their name pop up when your phone rings. Instead, ask them to correspond via email and set strict boundaries regarding this.
Healing From Narcissistic Abuse: Safety First
I hope this information has been helpful. If you plan to leave a toxic situation, please do NOT inform the other party. Please do not hesitate to reach out for help- your close friends, family, even law enforcement. Your own safety and well-being is important.
