Oh, no! How did I get into this? How did this happen? My life was ticking along just fine - or maybe not all that fine, but it wasn't like this! It's a disaster! Does this sound familiar? I'm sure we've all been there. Especially if we've been involved with a sociopath. Perhaps that's where you are right now. And if you are, the good news is that if you got into a mess, you can get out of it, too. Okay, it's true, there may be some aspects of your situation that you cannot change. If, for example, you're sitting in a car that you just wrapped around an enormous tree a moment ago, you can't rewind about ten seconds and take it all back. After all, life isn't like one big shoelace that you …

Letter from Gigi20 I just recently learned that my ex husband lied to me about what I'm guessing is everything, our whole marriage was a lie.

Joe Biden corruption allegations – what the media and big tech won’t tell you
All of us who have tangled with sociopaths have experienced stonewalling. We ask a question. We demand to know what is going on. The sociopath refuses to answer, changes the subject and accuses us of being unfair, paranoid and mentally unbalanced. Today we are witnessing a massive stonewalling campaign by big media and big tech in regards to the Joe Biden corruption allegations. Media and big tech are trying to prevent you from making an informed decision. This is truly frightening. I am a journalist. I graduated from one of the premiere journalism schools in the United States, the S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. I won the Gannet Foundation Award. …

How decluttering helps you recover from toxic relationships
Editor's note: Liberty Forrest, author of several self-help books and a certified Law of Attraction Life Coach, explains how decluttering helps you recover from toxic relationships. Read more about Liberty. By Liberty Forrest, PDHom Everything is energy. Nope, that's not "woowoo" — it's science. And it means that every single item in your environment is holding energy. Whether or not it's positive or negative depends on the meaning that you've assigned to it. For example, if you're holding onto anything that is connected with a painful memory or someone who has adversely impacted your life, that energy is pulling down the "chi" (energy) in your home. Same with anything that's s …

Sociopathy is a spectrum — but not so bad is still bad
The New York Times publishes a feature called "Modern Love." Last week they ran an article by a woman who wrote that sociopathy is a spectrum disorder, and she has it. The author, Patric Gagne, says she knew since age seven that she was different. Because she lacked empathy and emotions, she would get in trouble for the adrenaline rush, just to be able to feel something. She was eventually diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder. Recognizing that getting in trouble could lead to problems in her life, she stopped breaking into houses and instead earned a Ph.D. in psychology. She also got married and had children. Here's the article — please take a few minutes to read it: He m …

Editor's note: Lovefraud welcomes Liberty Forrest, author of several self-help books and a certified Law of Attraction Life Coach. Read more about Liberty. By Liberty Forrest, PDHom I know what it feels like to have your dreams blown to smithereens. It's especially painful when it's at the hands of someone you love(d). Someone you thought loved you back. And I know it can be scary to dream again. You don't want to risk yet another crushing disappointment.

You're handing over your power …
