So, here's my next concern and problem, and I need your advice on this one, please.

How do I survive the smear campaign that I know my narc husband will instigate with all his friends and possibly with our mutual group of friends?

I found an old text of his from the first time we separated, and he blamed me and my "drinking" and unemployment for the problems we had.

So, I am anticipating more blame and a smear campaign. I anticipate that he will tell everyone that I am "crazy" and "psychotic" and he will have some amount of evidence of it because I am on medications and have been hospitalized.

I don't know if I can simply just hold my head high in knowing he is wrong and lying to them.

What do I do?
