    Better immediately to court with a really good lawyer. Mediation is just a procrastination of divorce.

    One of the happiest days of my life was the day I walked out of a courtroom, divorced finalized, with a mentally and emotionally abusive narcissist. I looked up to God and said, "Thank you!!! I am finally free!!"

    Yes, mediation works with rational people but a narcissist is not rational. Negotiating with a narcissist is extremely difficult, accepting the fact that they will need to see a "win" is helpful. These are very selfish and insecure people and will stop at nothing to protect their fragile identity.

    It is a difficult road... The main thing is the question: Do you have the law on your side? I would advice: Take a good attorney... For me such things are definitley not a game because it is about your life (finance-stability, family - children...). I wish everyone the best - it is not easy - you have to be strong (very strong).

    I waited until our twins turned 18 bc I knew he would make visitations miserable. He is currently gaslighting them. He has withheld all money, I have nothing but my sanity and peace. I can't wait for him to be out of my life finally.

    so true, Thank the Lord I have money to pay my attorney fees but it is sooooo expensive and I still have to pay mortgage and household expenses since the narc no longer wants to contribute as an attempt to drain me. I have money in savings and draining it all to pay for the divorce while he sits back and does nothing. I was stressed at first but the court is making him pay my attorney fees and he has to pay sanctions to the court since he is not showing up for hearings. It's draining me but I GET IT ALL BACK after trial. Praise GOD! the Narc loses control when they don't comply with the court hearings. If they don't show up too bad for them. You cannot stop the divorce nor control the court room. I feel sorry for those who don't have money to pay for attorney. That is so stressful. But there are organizations out there to help those who have little or no income. God bless you all if you are divorcing a narc.

    only reason I'm still married is because I'm not strong enough to go through the divorce process. I'm so drained. He sucks the life out of me daily. i feel so empty and weak.

    we have kids. He moved us all hundreds of miles away from any support system i have. He controls all the finances and sabotages my jobs so that i can't make enough money to leave. i still work, but he makes it a living he'll

    He also intentionally disturbs my sleep to make sure I'm constantly exhausted and can't think straight. He seriously naps on the couch all evening (while i do all the chores), to make sure he can disturb me all night long, once i finally come to bed.

    Just be prepared to let them have 2/3 of everything. Be prepared for your children and maybe your friends to be alienated. Be prepared for them to go find someone that they know you will hate to take care of your kids. And yes, the only friends I have left are the ones I hid. Poor narcissist so poorly treated

    Actually interesting to know it’s not personal, I couldn’t believe someone could be that cruel against another human being, wish I’d seen this when I started divorcing my narcissistic

    The custody/parenting thing is so spot on. I know mine is going to fight me. He’s already told me his intention, if I ask for divorce, is to take the kids, leave me penniless on purpose (let the house foreclose, so I have nowhere to live and im homeless… that’s way he will get full custody 🥴). He has no desire to raise the kids, just to “win” and hurt me. He knows the only way to hurt me is by using them as pawns. When you see your children used like this, I can’t even describe the feeling… I don’t know I’ve ever known heartache, pain, anger, sadness, grief, quite like it.

    The hardest thing but most important thing is DO NOT REACT!!!! Document and record everything you can. It’s a slow and lengthy process, don’t give them or their lawyers have a single reason that hurts your character. That’s all they want is to damage you and self serve. Stay strong and good luck to everyone 👍💪

    I don’t know what I did right but I did it!!! I just got divorced last week! It was a terrible experience but in the last few weeks everything got so easy and smooth! Maybe he has a new target or maybe I said the right prayer or maybe I got the right lawyer. Whatever I’ll take it 😊 I’m FREEEEE!!!!!!!

    After 6 years I cannot take it anymore. It’s not going to be pretty. Our daughter is about to turn 4. This is terrifying.
