However, it never lasts long because something or someone inevitably will inspire me and then I can't type the words out fast enough. If I do get stuck WHILE I'm writing, I have to make myself get up and do something else for awhile and then come back to it. Otherwise, I'll write and rewrite a paragraph 100 times just trying to get the right words. After a break, without fail, I'll come back to the same paragraph and the words just flow. It's amazing how the creative part of the brain works.(less)

Narcissists, Cell Phones, & My FB Revenge Confession

How on earth did narcissists and sociopaths ever pander their diabolical wares before the invention of cell phones, Facebook, and other forms of social media? For those of us who’s relationship with a narcissist dates back, say, 13+ years, I think it’s safe to say that narcissists back then, sans the gadgets, were much tamer, […]

“A narcissist never has your back.”
Zari L. Ballard, When Love Is a Lie - Narcissistic Partners & the Pathological Relationship Agenda

“No matter what you’re doing, it just keeps advancing to the next frame…and the next and the next…until the grand, crushing finale at which point the loop simply starts all over. This is why we are always exhausted and so willing to just give in…to let things go.”
Zari L. Ballard, When Love Is a Lie - Narcissistic Partners & the Pathological Relationship Agenda
