    2022/12/13
    *Trigger Warning* I feel like coercive control, domestic violence, and partner on partner crime is on every corner. Maybe it was already there, maybe we’re done turning a blind eye to it. This week I touch on big stories and new releases in our niche of the world. I also give a very general introduction to Dr. Steven Hassen and the B.I.T.E model, which is often used to identify high control groups, but over the next few episodes I am going to discuss how the B.I.T.E model looks in high control relationships based on my interactions with two different types of narcissists.

    *Trigger Warning* Listener and BFF L asked “What was your daily life like with a narcissist?” Listen to me struggle for nearly 40 minutes to explain the pure chaos and confusion of daily life with a narcissist and completely miss the opportunity to reference Star Trek: Next Generation “Chain of Command, Part II” because OMG it’s such an excellent analogy for narcissistic abuse and gaslighting are like. I also briefly touch on how my beliefs both shaped and were weaponized during my relationship. Star Trek: Next Generation What the Bleep Do We Know (2004) The Vow (HBO)

    2022/11/15
    *Trigger Warning* People don’t stay in abusive situations because they’re stupid, deficient, or inept. That’s a Myth, and a damaging one at that.
