Take back your power from "summary" of Psychopath Free (Expanded Edition) by Jackson MacKenzie
The path to healing involves one crucial step: taking back your power. This is not about seeking revenge or trying to change someone else. It's about reclaiming what is rightfully yours - your sense of self, your autonomy, and your emotional well-being. When you have been in a relationship with a psychopath, you may have felt like your power was slowly being drained away. The constant manipulation, gaslighting, and emotional abuse can leave you feeling powerless and helpless. But the truth is, no one has the right to take away your power. It is yours to keep, no matter what anyone else may try to do. Taking back your power means recognizing that you are not defined by the actions or words of another person. You are in control of your own thoughts, feelings, and actions. You have the ability to set boundaries, make decisions, and prioritize your own needs. You have the power to choose how you want to live your life, without being dictated by someone else's agenda. One of the most important aspects of taking back your power is learning to trust yourself again. When you have been manipulated and deceived by a psychopath, it can be easy to doubt your own instincts and judgment. But deep down, you know what is best for you. By reconnecting with your intuition and listening to your inner voice, you can start to regain your confidence and self-assurance. It's also essential to surround yourself with supportive and understanding people who can help you on your journey to healing. Seeking therapy or joining a support group can provide you with the tools and resources you need to rebuild your sense of self and move forward in a positive direction. Remember, taking back your power is not a one-time event. It is an ongoing process that requires patience, self-care, and self-compassion. But with determination and perseverance, you can reclaim the power that was taken from you and create a life that is truly your own.
