🚩 What Is The Silent Treatment🚩

I’m on a roll with narcissists lately because I’ve been exposed recently and it’s reminded me of my former life. I think the biggest trait that I’ve seen in my narcissists is the silent treatment. When I was a child I saw my mother give multiple people the silent treatment. She wouldn’t talk to themContinue reading “🚩 What Is The Silent Treatment🚩”

🚩 Like Running On A Hamster Wheel 🚩

Since I’ve been on my path, I’ve limited my time and energy with people. See when you are healing, you can’t just expose yourself to all environments. You must rest, take care of yourself, it doesn’t matter if it’s physical or mental, limiting contact with people is necessary so you don’t get reinfected. The minuteContinue reading “🚩 Like Running On A Hamster Wheel 🚩”

Your Crown Is Falling

If you haven’t read my story about how Dealing to Healing was born then you may not know that my goal when the blog was born was just not to write and heal me but to help others. The goal was to help just one, one post at a time. I pray that prayer eachContinue reading “Your Crown Is Falling”

Here’s To Mom

Today I woke up with a heavy heart. It was today in 2019 that my mother passed. I had been to the UT/Vandy game in Knoxville. I drove back to Nashville, that drives was the longest, saddest drive of my life. As you have read in my blog, my mother was a narcissist. I knowContinue reading “Here’s To Mom”

What is Blessed?

I hope all that celebrate Thanksgiving had a happy one. I did some traveling amongst friends in my hometown. One of my stops was seeing an old friend from high school. Her young granddaughter who she raises was right up in our adult conversation. As my friend described her granddaughter’s multiple foot surgeries due toContinue reading “What is Blessed?”

The Thankful Game

I know throughout every storm I’ve ridden out, every valley that I’ve crossed, and every season I’ve survived, it’s because I try to stay thankful for my haves in life. If you are thankful for the haves and stop worrying about the have nots, the quality of your life will change for the better. It’sContinue reading “The Thankful Game”

Narcissists Are Church Members

I watched the 20/20 Special the other night with Diane Sawyer interviewing the young women from the House of Horrors. You may recall the couple in California that had 13 children and had them chained, locked up, starving for decades? The parents got life in prison which is still not enough punishment in my opinion.Continue reading “Narcissists Are Church Members”

Actions Over Words And Energy Over Everything

The old me hung onto every word that just about anybody told me. I believed every time someone said they loved me, complimented me, said they were supporting me. I trusted their words, didn’t watch for the action or lack of one, and dismissed my energy. The new me is not so much a listener.Continue reading “Actions Over Words And Energy Over Everything”

This Is How God Can Turn Any Situation Around

Let me describe in detail how God can turn any situation around. Last Sunday I blogged “Hope in Hopeless” and while I was blogging that morning simultaneously across the state line, close to my hometown in Nashville, TN there was a family that was believing hope in hopeless and they were talking to God aboutContinue reading “This Is How God Can Turn Any Situation Around”

Its Not The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

While families gather together next week for Thanksgiving and the holiday seasons begin for many, it’s a very painful time of year for others. Let’s not forget the reasons why it’s not the most wonderful time of the year. The empty chairs at the table remind us that some are missing. They are missing dueContinue reading “Its Not The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year”
