Like us, Claudia Moscovici had her run-in with a psychopath, one that almost destroyed her marriage. Since then, like many of us, she has thoroughly researched this destructive personality disorder. She started a blog called “Psychopathy Awareness,” and wrote two books: a novel called The Seducer, and an upcoming nonfiction book called Dangerous Liaisons.
In her review of my book, Love Fraud—How marriage to a sociopath fulfilled my spiritual plan, Claudia writes, “I didn’t think I could learn much more about the subject, but Donna’s book proved me wrong.”
Read the entire review on Psychopathy Awareness.
Love Fraud is available in the Lovefraud Store.

(wow. that was big…)
lesson learned
I just discovered something in thinking about my session today and then reading the blog. I think I’ve hit upon a very painful truth that is very deep and it feels VERY embarrassing and is shameful.
It was a major hook with spath. MAJOR hook and this hook is a MAJOR pattern from when I was very, VERY young.
Now that I know what this is, I don’t know what to do with it. But I feel angry, very, very sad….and am crying….
I don’t want to hate myself for this revelation, but be glad because I have it.
I just don’t know what to do about it and it’s causing me a great deal of pain. It’s so shameful, I can’t share it here.
This is going deeper and it’s becoming very frightening. I’m scared to get near those deeper things of myself that have created so much pain, caused so much havoc, but yet is a pattern set up from childhood and i have no idea what to do about it…except just cry..

Please Lesson,
Write it on a piece of paper, a journal, a tablet, and call your therapist for an emergency session and review your revelation with HIM. Don’t wait a week and agonize over it. Resolve it. Empower yourself.

Use your tears for healing……
Healing and processing is like peeling an onion…..just when we think we’ve gotten to the flesh…..there is another layer.
Expect the layers……expect them.
If you peel freely, and process wholeheartedly………the work will be done……and life will be easier.
We tend to dust things under the rug (of our life)……until one day, we start tripping over that rug and fall.
It’s difficult…..and it makes us look deep into our past…..and everything associated with it.
We must start at the beginning to get to the ‘now’.
Embrace the pain darlen. It’s growth.

Katydid Oh My – I just love your wisdom.
I want to thank you for fighting for my honor today, it make’s me think of a time when I was a kid about 6 riding the school bus and some bad ass teenage boys were making fun of me and my shoe’s and my sister jumped over three rows of seats and pounded the crap out of them….your respect for me is appreciated more than i can express….

Erin,
I understand about embracing the pain….
But this is the kind of pain I have feared facing.
It means acknowledging ………..so many, many things…that I’m responsible for….but were also created for me from the beginning…I’m feel very sad about all of it.
Katy, I’m calling my therapist in the morning. Unfortunately, he does not do emergency sessions and I’m lucky if the man answers the phone (he’s really good, just not so good at responding to phone calls). This isn’t something I can simply resolve….this one is so huge, it requires a lot of reflection and connecting some more dots…it’s just terribly frightening.
This is when crying is a good, healing thing, even though it hurts like a bitch.
I think I have more crying to do. I’m sorry that my pain has caused so much grief here the last several weeks, but I’m so grateful for the feedback and honesty because it would not have led to this discovery..
Good night everyone.

She was alway’s my protector and loved me unconditionally, I left out the fact that my shoe’s were red flip flops.
