Hi, I'm Stacy.! I'm a peer recovery advocate, addiction coach, substance abuse counselor, and Victim Service Provider. I'm also a survivor and proud to be in recovery from addiction. After 26 years with a narcissistic man, I made a plan and took my life back. I found a trauma therapist, took domestic violence victim classes, built an amazing support network, and went back to school to become a substance abuse counselor. Then I walked away. Leaving my grown kids and my Yorkie was the hardest part, but it was the first step toward the life I have now. Today I'm in college working toward my social work degree, and I work at a domestic violence shelter, where I get to help others find their strength and start fresh. If you're struggling, I've been there, and I'm living proof that things can get better. 馃尰 P.S. I love sunflowers!
What I Hope to Share
I'm hoping to connect with others who truly understand, keep healing from 26 years of narcissistic abuse, and learn from other survivors' experiences. I also want to share what I've learned and support anyone who's just starting out." 馃尰
What Brought Me to ShareWell
I am here because I know how isolating narcissistic abuse can be. After 26 years, I learned that healing doesn't happen alone. My support network helped me get out, and it's still helping me heal. I'm also here to give back. As a survivor, a peer recovery advocate, and someone who works with domestic violence survivors, I want to be a safe, understanding person for anyone who's where I used to be. We don't have to do this alone. 馃尰
