Karoline & The Triangulating Physical Abuser | Domestic Violence & Narcissistic Abuse

Narcissist Apocalypse: Patterns of Abuse

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon talks with Karoline about her volatile upbringing with an abusive mother, and her marriage to a narcissistic musician, marked by emotional, physical, and financial abuse. Karoline stayed in the relationship for a long time due to the pull of their trauma bond. However, once Karoline saw her husband's manipulative behavior during a prolonged and costly divorce process, the fog of the trauma bond dissipated, and she was able to begin the healing process. 

It's a story of triangulation, physical abuse, people pleasing, scapegoats, intergenerational trauma, financial abuse, intimidation, mental health, gaslighting, put downs, blame shifting, zero accountability, fear of police, the fog, ptsd, rage, destruction of property, divorce, and post separation abuse.
