Psychopaths can fool even the most skilled therapists.
There was one sentence that helped me makemy decision:
"Try to let the side of you that is trying to save yourself.......win."

Sharon, I'm going to get the book and read it very closely. Thirty-one years of being married as you were to a verbally abusive man is a long time to live in hell. I'm glad you did your homework and were able to save yourself. I need to follow your example and do the same for myself. The person inside me who still cares for me will stand up and save me. I don't want my family to find me dead one day because I didn't have the courage to walk away from a psychopath.
Love,
Peacequest
