Hi there this is Tracy and tonight I’d like to talk to you about
0:00:15.619,0:00:18.129
The desire to what to kill yourself
0:00:19.400,0:00:23.469
when you’ve been involved in a relationship, that’s failed and
0:00:24.289,0:00:25.430
I
0:00:25.430,0:00:28.600
don’t know about you, but I
0:00:29.420,0:00:31.420
think that
0:00:31.910,0:00:35.319
When you’re with a narcissist sociopath a
0:00:36.830,0:00:38.420
Psychopath
0:00:38.420,0:00:43.180
They have done so much crazy-making in your mind that
0:00:44.270,0:00:48.129
You lose a sense of reality you lose the feeling that
0:00:49.940,0:00:56.169
You’re worth anything they’ve taken that away from you so for me, I’ll tell you my story
0:00:57.590,0:01:01.270
when my two ex-husband
0:01:02.870,0:01:09.610
Asked me for a divorce clear out of the blue completely blindsided I
0:01:11.300,0:01:12.439
Was
0:01:12.439,0:01:14.649
Forced to move out of my marital home
0:01:15.560,0:01:21.729
he moved to the other side of the country, and I was put through a horrific divorce I
0:01:24.500,0:01:28.540
Was so scared of having to start again
0:01:30.680,0:01:37.419
Having to love again. He was my second husband, and I thought the man of my dreams
0:01:39.049,0:01:41.049
And I
0:01:41.240,0:01:42.920
Didn’t realize until
0:01:42.920,0:01:44.600
recently how
0:01:44.600,0:01:51.549
uneven that relationship was and how much more I had given to the relationship I
0:01:52.880,0:01:57.280
Was just kind of giving and loving and he had a very fake
0:01:58.340,0:02:02.860
self thing that he would do to me which was to buy love trinkets and
0:02:03.500,0:02:05.500
Whether they were
0:02:06.799,0:02:10.479
You know baubles and clothes
0:02:11.780,0:02:18.160
10 pairs of shoes at a time whatever it was he was like that was his way to show love and
0:02:18.680,0:02:21.270
I was supposed to except that
0:02:21.940,0:02:26.730
and I did I didn’t want you in the beginning, but then I did and
0:02:28.270,0:02:32.130
That was this love bombing this this whole thing just came on like
0:02:33.820,0:02:35.590
Exactly textbook
0:02:35.590,0:02:38.579
But during that discard and during
0:02:39.280,0:02:43.860
A night which ended up being the last night my son saw him
0:02:44.170,0:02:47.729
They went out to dinner and left me in this new apartment
0:02:48.940,0:02:52.590
unwrapping and opening all the boxes after had just moved and
0:02:53.410,0:02:56.430
I held the boxcar to my wrist
0:02:57.250,0:02:59.250
and googled how
0:03:00.040,0:03:04.620
just let your wrist the best way like maybe less mass or quicker I
0:03:05.470,0:03:07.390
wanted to know
0:03:07.390,0:03:09.390
Sadly that stuff is out there on Google
0:03:10.840,0:03:18.600
But as I sat there in my bed, and I knew my son would be dropped off soon I
0:03:19.960,0:03:21.520
I
0:03:21.520,0:03:23.790
call the suicide hotline and
0:03:24.640,0:03:27.299
they talked me down and they and they
0:03:28.150,0:03:32.250
You know really put the whole kid thing in there to the point where?
0:03:32.980,0:03:35.159
You know what was like I wasn’t thinking
0:03:36.130,0:03:43.230
what would happen when he found me and then they put that thought in my head, and and then I stopped and
0:03:43.870,0:03:47.640
And I cried a lot, but I didn’t
0:03:48.670,0:03:50.670
kill myself
0:03:50.770,0:03:57.329
And I wonder how many suicides are a result
0:03:58.870,0:04:00.640
Of
0:04:00.640,0:04:07.859
Being with a sociopath or a narcissists, I wonder what the statistics are that?
0:04:10.150,0:04:13.830
People that have been discarded in this horrific way
0:04:15.970,0:04:19.890
And want to kill themselves try to kill themselves
0:04:23.680,0:04:28.060
I don’t think that were weak. I think that we’re strong
0:04:30.590,0:04:35.440
We’re here, you didn’t do it and I
0:04:36.710,0:04:44.019
Just wrote on my support group. I wrote an answer to somebody and I said
0:04:45.320,0:04:47.320
the best way to
0:04:49.010,0:04:51.010
Think about
0:04:52.400,0:04:54.400
That event
0:04:54.740,0:04:56.060
possibly
0:04:56.060,0:05:01.179
You know cutting yourself or or taking pills whatever you were gonna do to
0:05:02.360,0:05:04.360
You know kill yourself
0:05:04.580,0:05:07.389
if that thought comes back to your brain I
0:05:08.150,0:05:10.600
Want you to really think?
0:05:12.020,0:05:13.490
that
0:05:13.490,0:05:15.490
That it didn’t happen
0:05:15.530,0:05:16.940
because
0:05:16.940,0:05:20.199
Maybe you’re just outside and the snow is coming down
0:05:20.840,0:05:25.239
And there’s nothing like that quieted the snow right why is it so quiet?
0:05:26.210,0:05:28.720
Everything is just this you don’t have that ever
0:05:30.229,0:05:33.399
Or the rain is falling on your face, or you see a rainbow
0:05:34.520,0:05:39.280
All of these things are things and reasons why?
0:05:40.370,0:05:42.940
We should be thankful that we’re here
0:05:43.849,0:05:45.909
But we need to learn that
0:05:47.000,0:05:49.000
No matter what?
0:05:50.479,0:05:57.189
We didn’t value ourselves, and we will never give that power up again. We will never ever
0:05:58.580,0:05:59.870
let
0:05:59.870,0:06:05.500
Our well-being be in the hands of someone who doesn’t deserve it
0:06:06.199,0:06:08.199
That’s so important
0:06:08.930,0:06:13.510
I’ve wondered how many people we could save if we just taught them this
0:06:17.310,0:06:19.000
I
0:06:19.000,0:06:21.000
Know for me
0:06:21.010,0:06:28.889
Very few people I’ve told I tell you it’s like YouTube more stuff that my friends well know but like you know Facebook friends
0:06:30.669,0:06:32.669
It’s a hard thing for people to admit
0:06:35.980,0:06:37.980
But I’m really glad that I didn’t do it
0:06:40.870,0:06:42.870
