No Contact: The Pathway to Healing

Implementing 'No Contact' is vital for breaking free from the abuser's control and beginning the healing process. It's about setting firm boundaries to protect oneself from manipulation and further harm. Challenges include the abuser's attempts to re-engage and circumstances like shared children or workplaces. Survivors emphasize that "No Contact is the best way," even when the narcissist tries to reach out through social media or mutual friends. "We should not desire to have people who have mistreated us back into our lives," the author asserts. By cutting ties, survivors can start to rebuild their lives without the toxic influence of the narcissist.
