A deep dive discussion on the struggles of letting go with an update and review of the redacted Order Sustaining Demurrer on my civil case.
Show Notes
In this episode DSD talks about the struggles and importances of learning to “let go”. We discuss how difficult it is to actually do, being forced to learn the “lesson”, recognizing when you’re being pulled back in, and notice when you are stuck in the rumination cycle. Duane then shares how things really start to change ONCE you accept the situation and allowing yourself to “move on”. He also shares that unfortunately this process takes a LONG time and for some even years. DSD shares that it took him about 2 to 3 years for it to really sink in.
Duane then provides an update with a reading on the final Order Sustaining Demurrer that was finally sent and signed by the court. This leads into a discussion on various aspects of court.

Supervised visitation and playing “the game”
Show Notes
The main topic of the show is dealing with supervised visitation and playing the game with the “professionals” to start to eek back time and success. This is a very trying time and emotionally draining but it is important that you jump through the flaming hoops and demonstrate that you are NOT the person your ex is claiming you are.
We have a caller who talks about their struggles even after winning full custody of the children and how the ex still plays games and tries to damage the relationships and experiences.

193. Winning feels like losing with a narcissist
Winning feels like losing with a narcissist
Show Notes
When you're dealing with a toxic, drama-filled person, it can feel like even when you win, you lose. It's important to realize that going through this mess puts a ton of stress on you. Sometimes, we want a big, impressive victory to feel like things are finally turning around, but the emotional and mental toll makes it hard to see the progress.
These experiences mess with your head, making you compare your past to what you hope for in the future, and it seems like you're losing big time. To break free from this, you need to stop obsessing over what your ex is up to and give yourself time to heal and move on. It's okay to take a breather and process everything you've been through.

We discuss the live changing experience validation provides when we learn about the reality of personality disorders and their patterns of behaviors.
Show NotesValidation is a very important part of the healing process after a high conflict narcissistic divorce with a person who shows all the patterns of behavior of a personality disorder. You go from feeling like you are living a one man nightmare or in a never ending twilight zone episode. Although validation is important you have to be careful to not stay in that phase and start putting in the work to take your life back. Ultimately you have to start asking yourself, “Ok now what do I do”? Moving past validation and into questioning (and action) is how you ultimately take your life back!

A discussion on defining “victory” while going through a toxic narcissistic divorce.
Show Notes
This discussion starts with a look at perspective and how we look at things when we are going through a toxic narcissistic divorce. It really is a means of “how you look at it” and how you compare your current situation with your previous expectations. This covers the key points of perspective, how the kids are with you, what happens if/when they do not chose “you”, do the kids engage and love you, and summarizing on even if alienation is complete how you still have to take your life back no matter what!

173. Getting to the other side of a toxic narcissistic divorce
In this episode Duane discusses the difficulties of seeing a way through a high conflict divorce with a toxic narcissist person. Part of the problem
Show NotesA discussion on how to get to the other side of a toxic relationship and finding a path to take your life back! In the early stages of this it can be almost impossible to see a pathway to getting to the other side of this. It often feels like there is no way through and that no one truly understands what you are going through. The key to moving forward is acceptance, re-baselining your life, and realizing when you are beating your head against the wall. You have to learn to re-focus your time and energy to creating (and maintaining) your own peace, building on the relationship with your children (if you have any), and ultimately removing the chaos from your life. This last part can be extremely difficult because you can become “comfortable” with chaos and in some ways might even seek it out. This is a normal part of the process
