Columbia Narcissistic Abuse and CPTSD Trauma Survivors

Welcome Survivors! This is a weekly support group meeting designed for established members who are healing from narcissistic abuse, complex post-traumatic stress disorder, and/or codependency. Whether you are thinking about leaving, in the process of leaving or have successfully left a narcissistic relationship, this space is for you.
DESCRIPTION: An informal peer-to-peer based share group for those in all stages of moving on and healing from narcissistic abuse.
AGENDA: Grab tea, water, tissues, and/or anything that brings you comfort, and join fellow survivors navigating how to heal from toxic relationships. This group is meant to provide support to those who feel alone, unsupported, and misunderstood. Healing from narcissistic abuse is a long journey, and hearing stories from fellow survivors can be healing. This is a safe space for you to share your victories and what you are struggling with as you heal. Sharing is not required, so feel free to just listen to other survivors and know you are not alone.
Cameras are not required, but are strongly encouraged.
Every meeting will feature an optional theme to spark discussion.

**OUR MOST LONG RUNNING MEETING - 4 YEARS AND COUNTING!**

A US-UK Mashup Friday meeting. This is a support group for those who have survived an abusive relationship with a narcissist or are currently in one and need support. The cycle of abuse from the lovebombing to the trauma bond to the devaluation to the discard is never-ending and makes you feel alone.

This will be another meeting with both the American & UK groups so attendance is limited. Video MUST be on so everyone can feel comfortable.

THIS EVENT IS FOR ESTABLISHED MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY - IF YOU HAVE NOT ATTENDED ONE OF OUR MEETINGS, PLEASE SIGN UP FOR ONE OF OUR MANY FIRST TIMERS EVENTS POSTED. YOU WILL BE FREE TO SIGN UP FOR THESE EVENTS IN THE FUTURE AFTER YOU HAVE ATTENDED THAT EVENT. THIS IS TO ENSURE CONFIDENTIALITY, ATTENDANCE AND COMMUNITY SAFETY. THANK YOU x
Meeting will open with a short informal introduction of everyone and then will open to sharing. It's a safe, supportive environment where you're not forced to share and I look forward to meeting everyone.

ABOUT YOUR ORGANIZER:
