I feel overwhelmed knowing that there are SO MANY others out there walking in my shoes, and that makes me so very very sad. I wish I WAS alone in this. I wish my marriage was unique. And at the same time, I feel so grateful to everyone who contacts me for the exact same reasons you gave. Kinship. Validation. Truth. The one thing you forgot is a link to the show :) Listen to <a href="http://www.marthatrowbridgeradio.org/blog/the-crazy-making-husband-radio-show/steve-becker-lcsw-its-not-all-in-your-mind-dear/" rel="nofollow">"It's Not All in Your Mind Dear"</a> ...

And your bravery. The woman who wrote you likely is seeking emotional support more than anything else. Validation. Kinship. Your work is compelling, Kellie, gorgeous, eloquent. I can understand her reaching out to you. With your truths, you have profoundly touched her. As for abuse, I recently interviewed LCSW Steve Becker. Our show, 'It's [Not] All In Your Mind, Dear: When Your Crazy-Making Husband Is A Narcissist' is an empathic overview of the 'why' of many a husband's emotional and mental abuse. I hope your community finds it helpful. All my best, Martha Kellie,
