“Many survivors of a narcissist discover that they’ve sacrificed so much in an attempt to please the narcissist that they’ve lost sight of who they are. Rediscovering oneself involves reclaiming things once loved, be it passions, friendships, or even jobs. It’s about finding that one thing you used to enjoy and taking it back. Reconnect with your inner child, play, and reintroduce yourself to the joys that make you uniquely you.”
Tracy Malone

“There will come a day when you're strolling, the sun casting the perfect shadow, and you'll experience a Peter Pan moment of excitement and joy—a feeling you never thought possible after enduring narcissistic abuse.”
Tracy Malone

Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Taylor Jenkins Reid, Carrie Soto Is Back

“There is no more obvious indicator of the passage of time than children growing in your absence.”
