Tina Swithin was swept off her feet by a modern day Prince Charming and married him one year later. Tina soon discovered that there was something seriously wrong with her fairytale. The marriage was filled with lies, deception, fraud and many tears. Tina was left in an utter state of confusion. This wasn't the man that she married...or was it? Tina first heard the term, Narcissistic Personality Disorder from her therapist in 2008 but quickly dismissed the notion that something could be wrong with her husband. It took several years for Tina to begin researching the disorder and suddenly, the past ten years of her life made complete sense. Tina soon discovered that there is only one thing more...
Prior to stepping onto the battlefield with a Narcissist, it is imperative to know their playbook both forwards and backwards. The behavior of individuals with Narcissistic Personality Disorder generally defies logic but sadly, their tactics in the Family Court System often fool Judges, Commissioners, Attorneys, Minor's Counsel, Social Workers, Therapists and even trained Evaluators. Narcissists are the masters of manipulation and projection and are known to launch stealth assaults that will leave their victims in an utter state of confusion and desperation. Victims are often left shattered and without a voice because they feel that no one could possibly believe or understand what they are s...
Divorcing a narcissist? You are probably left feeling baffled and shaken by the communication that you receive from the narcissist. In my mid-twenties, I contemplated learning multiple foreign languages. I envisioned dabbling in French to successfully make my way around Paris or Irish Gaelic to explore the rich history of Ireland along with my deep ancestral roots in that country. My day dreams about learning new languages always went hand in hand with the imagery of world travel. The thought of exploring exotic and old world places far away from home intrigued me. My mind summoned several foreign adventures, but never did I think I would need to learn a foreign language to navigate my own l...
When life gives you lemons (anything that is yucky, sour, or painful), you can use those lemons to make lemonade (something sweet, positive, or refreshing). No matter how positive or happy a person is, sometimes life gives us lemons. Some of those lemons teach us lessons about life. There are some lemons that you may barely notice, and then there are the ones that knock you straight upside the head! Maybe a bully threw a lemon as quick as lightning and knocked the wind right out of you! Maybe your lemon is a really yucky divorce in your family. Maybe your lemon is that someone you loved very much died. Those lemons sure do sting! Your lemons might be illness, bullying, friendship problems, parents fighting, divorce, or other yucky, painful things. But, you can find ways to stay positive no matter how many lemons life throws at you! While it wasn't always easy, I have learned that making lemonade from life's sour lemons becomes easier and easier the more you do it. No matter how difficult things may seem, it is always possible to live a Lemonade Life.
Tina Swithin's life was hit by a devastating Life Storm in 2009. Tina had recently heard the words, "Narcissistic Personality Disorder" used to describe her then-husband by a therapist yet she had no real understanding of how this disorder would turn her life upside down during a custody battle that spanned six-years. In less than a year, Tina lost her home, businesses, cars, worldly possessions and her marriage. In one fell swoop, everything was gone. In Family Court, Tina acted as her own attorney and finally, in 2014, secured peace and safety for her young daughters. A true 'lemon to lemonade' story, Tina has rebuilt her life and thrives in the aftermath of the Life Storm that threatened ...
Updated and revised with seven new chapters, a new introduction, and a new resources section, this landmark book is invaluable for women facing a custody battle. It was the first to break the myth that mothers receive preferential treatment over fathers in custody disputes. Although mothers generally retain custody when fathers choose not to fight for it, fathers who seek custody often win—not because the mother is unfit or the father has been the primary caregiver but because, as Phyllis Chesler argues, women are held to a much higher standard of parenting. Incorporating findings from years of research, hundreds of interviews, and international surveys about child-custody arrangements, Ch...
"A practical guide to separating and divorcing from a narcissist, healing yourself, and protecting your children"--
This carefully crafted ebook: "Between the Acts" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Between the Acts is the final novel by Virginia Woolf, published in 1941 shortly after her suicide. This is a book laden with hidden meaning and allusion. It describes the mounting, performance, and audience of a festival play (hence the title) in a small English village just before the outbreak of the Second World War. Much of it looks forward to the war, with veiled allusions to connection with the continent by flight, swallows representing aircraft, and plunging into darkness. The pageant is a play within a play, representing a rather cynical view of English history. Woolf links together many different threads and ideas - a particularly interesting technique being the use of rhyme words to suggest hidden meanings. Relationships between the characters and aspects of their personalities are explored. The English village bonds throughout the play through their differences and similarities.
