I am new and have no clue how to navigate the forums so hopefully this is going to the right topic. I also developed C-PTSD as an adult, I was in a relationship with a Covert Narcassit, we have children together and I can honestly say that if he hadn't decided to leave rather than log in to one of his secret sites we would still be together. I thought if I could just make things easier for him (not question him) and tried harder to please him (do whatever he said and wanted) we would be a family and live happily ever after. I grew up in an abusive family, but have no memories of life before the 4th grade and even after that I have a lot of holes. I wanted my kids to grow up in a home with both of their parents that I ended sacrificing my sanity.
