There has been a lot going on in my life, so I thought I'd give you an inside look into a number of posts I have been working on so that there would be something to look forward to.
My most "finished" post is on how shame and rage are intertwined in narcissism and how it can lead so easily to abuse. I feel it is one of the more "important" posts I have been writing on abuse, because it plays a role in nearly every aspect of narcissistic abuse (and even the present war waged by Russia against Ukraine and its citizens). It is as common (but less well known) as the abuser's addiction to power, control and domination.
Other posts nearly finished:
* Estrangement in the family (2 parts)
* Lack of sleep, sleep disturbances and nightmares in PTSD and CPTSD
* Lack of empathy in abusers
* A series on common punishments abusers use in domestic abuse and violence (plus how to tell how much danger you might be in, in terms of the types of punishments being used)
* Growing up in an abusive family: how addictions and obsessions play a role
* Infantilization and parentification in abusive relationships and how it is connected to gaslighting
* Child abuse survivors who contemplate suicide (signs)
Posts I am working on for the series "The Narcissistic Nation":
* two more entries on Russia's war with Ukraine
* a look at the controversy over abortion in the USA
* the alarming recent uptick in teen suicides in the USA
* USA: the divided country (often termed the Cold Civil War)
* arrogance, prejudice, paranoia, and perspecticide, and how it plays a role in damaging peace and the ability to negotiate between nations
I will probably take this post down once I put a new post up.
This is just to keep you up to date and informed.
