By Donna Andersen, author of Lovefraud.com

Recovery from a Sociopath enables you to understand why you feel so shattered by a confusing and abusive relationship, and guides you on how to put your life back together.

Sociopaths, meaning people who could be diagnosed with antisocial, narcissistic, borderline, histrionic or psychopathic personality disorders, cannot love you; they can only use you. The profound betrayal by a sociopath shakes you to your core. You suffer emotionally, psychologically, financially, physically and spiritually. The experience is so devastating that you may wonder if it’s even possible to recover. Yes, it is.
