In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Lin recounts being married to a terrorizing abuser. Lin met her ex on Yahoo Personals, and he presented himself as a top-secret ex-military veteran who had gone through an immense amount of trauma. With these stories, Lin’s ex was able to isolate her, instill fear in her, and control her life. For 17 years, Lin lived inside a prison with an alternate reality, doing her best to survive.
It’s a story of fear, obligation, guilt, shame, trust, physical abuse, sexual abuse, suicidal ideation, animal abuse, depression, anxiety, survival, jealousy, accusations, deceit, intimidation, threats, gaslighting, neglect, child hood trauma, isolation, truth tellers, boundaries, legal battles, infidelity, double lives, humiliation, restraining orders, and time theft.
