So this week I had a massive breakthrough. I have finally fully accepted who the Devil really was and broken free of the trauma bond! What really made the penny drop was something quite ordinary. I was listening to a podcast about romance scammers and could clearly see the similarities in their behaviours and my Devil ex.
I now feel I am finally free to start looking to the future. However I still have a lot of healing to do within myself, but I am so proud to have made it to this milestone.
So keep going, no matter how hard it is, it does get easier.
