Ant & The Cheating Physically Abusive Na...

Abuse Survivor Network
About this episode

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Ant shares her story of dating a cheating physical abuser. Ant was loved bombed on their first date and was trauma-bonded pretty quickly. As the relationship unfolded, Ant began to uncover infidelity and drug use. At first, Ant let these things slide, but as time went on, Ant began to voice her displeasure, and this is where the physical abuse took a turn for the worse.

It's a story of physical abuse, financial abuse, fear, addiction, obligation, guilt, blame, manipulation, gaslighting, isolation, self harm, codependency, rage, mental health, suicide attempts, threats, infidelity, depression, and anxiety.

*** CONTENT WARNING - This episode discusses physical abuse, sexual abuse, and suicide. ***
