"I prefer the term ‘getting the front #brain online’. It clearly defines the problem..& clearly implies what the solution will look like: that my front brain will be active & engaged again. There’s no #fault or #blame.": buff.ly/mlJvb6b by CarolynSpring #MentalHealth #grounding

✅ Instead of owning their actions, they demand gratitude for their mere presence in your life. They minimize your feelings, frame their abuse as a favor, and make you feel indebted for the "privilege" of their time. They use obligation to silence your complaints. #NarcissisticAbuse #CoersiveControl

Reminder: There is no "one" environment that breeds exploitation.
