XO,

[@SomeRetroGuy]

It's awful. This withdrawal feeling. I go from okay to absolutely not okay, full of anxiety, depression, physically hurting and feeling sick. It's very difficult to not speak to her. Even my therapist said it's an addiction in recovering from. It's been less than a week and I want it to end already. I'm trying to stay active, work, still go to the gym, watch videos, talk to friends and family, meditation, practice breathing correctly. Pretty much anything to ride out these sudden massive waves of hurt.

[@maceyr.6583]

Omygosh same! How are you now? For me it's only been 3 days. :"(

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

I truly know just how you feel. Stay strong brotha don’t let this addiction Ruin your life. It did mine :(

[@JustAshleyDanielle]

I made it through day 1. Understanding that this hurt isn’t from love but rather withdrawals like a drug helps. There’s no way I love the way this boy treated me.

[@DiSanto84]

how are you oday? Im living the same right now

[@carlhouseofoliver345]

Yeah it's day 1 for me today Oct 2024. I know how much the pain destroyed me last wk when I knew I had to make the decision to leave. I just pray I'm stronger already to try and handle the hell withdrawals that are coming my way!!

[@Monique3577777]

It definitely feels like a drug, I use to wonder why I kept going back to the toxic relationship and realized I wanted to feel certain things from that person and wanted him to change. This is good advice thank you!

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

I feel the same way. I would constantly go back to that person because i was addicted to the validation I received from them. It was so frustrating because I knew I shouldn’t have been with them and yet I couldn’t seem to stay away smh

[@_Nicole589]

Such perfect timing. Very important for me to understand it isn't love, it's withdrawl - this makes a huge difference! I don't hear that often enough when people talk about healing from narc abuse. I'm finally seeing it truly is addiction and requires the same approach of sorts as substance addiction. Your suggestions were helpful too. Going to rewatch this as many times as it takes. Thank you!!

[@ungraded_treasures4057]

Same

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

This almost brought a tear to my eye because finally not only have I found a video that explains how I feel and what I went through But I’ve found others who can truly relate. Thank you so much

[@rickaster]

I went through a period of not sleeping well but it wasn’t because pulling myself out of the situation was a mistake.

[@AnAussieinNorway]

Doesn’t sound like it

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

That’s good because it’s easy to think it was a mistake because of that . I used to

[@gailrobey4316]

I just found your channel. Love this video. I have an old, old relationship that I'm still obsessing on. I think there may still be withdrawal I need to deal with. Self love and trauma work is the solution I think. Thank you ❤

[@CandacevanDell]

Boom! Relief is possible ❤️

[@lightimagay00]

thank you so much. this has calmed me down during a withdrawal crisis. it really does make u feel like crazy, the fact it involves physical pain even is absurd. i was hyperventilating, feeling my stomach empty and my knees collapsing, wondering if this was a sign of "true love". I feel calmer now knowing that this step is necessary for me to fully heal

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

That’s the same thing I would think. If it feels this bad it must be love smh

[@fringbabyross4718]

Man I am so glad I found this video today. I was in love with a fearful avoidant woman push pull relationship. It’s nearly been two months since we’ve spoke. She was a literal drug to me and now I’m grieving. The withdrawal from her is terrible and an anxious attachment and abandonment issue makes it worse. This shit is very real !

[@ShaunofdaL4D]

Currently on week one of the exact same scenario...

[@ShadaeBalancesKnightAstro]

@@JenSummaYou’re cruel for this!!!

[@Nina_Kowsari]

Sending to a friend. It really does get worse the more you go back whether its partnership, friendship.. When you recognize things have gotten toxic or even suspect it has, take a break and re-evaluate.

[@Stellarchild]

Wow. Watching this video ans then reading the comment section is so helpfull. I was feeling crazy for having all these emotions and also for gaving thought he was THE ONE. I feel weirdly validated thanks everyone. Im on week one. Feel like absolute crap. Very triggering. High anxiety, low motivation, nausea, thinking about him.

[@amytan2019]

You literally saved me just now...I am going through this just as I see this!!!

[@codiejade5273]

Same here. . Confusing but still thanking God

[@amytan2019]

@@codiejade5273 Just knowing that there's someone else as well,makes me feel better cause now I can tell myself, for sure I am not the only one going through this. Thus the pinch of embarrassment that comes with feeling like this has subsided. Thanks for sharing your experience. 💙

[@adamfuz]

Me too, I'm going through exactly the same. Sending you both much love at this difficult time but we'll get there.🙏❤️💫💪

[@nafeesa14]

Mee tooo and just got caught back in the cycle though caught it faster doesn't help...have to redetox

[@codiejade5273]

Definitely not alone. Lets keep feeling and healing fam

[@erikab1501]

Thank you very much for this video, Cadace! How about if the person is your own mother. OMG I have been in a gerbil weel with this woman. Would be nice if I don't ever have to deal with her, but it is my mother. I am going no contact and I go in visit overseas for 6 weeks and comeback like a loony person and my husband has to pick up the pieces. Takes me forever to recuperate. I cannot do this again, she is so F sick and selfish when it comes to me, but to people that are not the closest, she laughs, smiles and treats them nicely. I was shocked few months ago when I visited that she was even having a great time and with me she always complains about pretty much everything, never have any money and feels tired. I do not understand this woman at all, and looking back NO WONDER WHY I LEFT HOME, nothing has change.

[@ericajosephine1714]

nodding the whole way through, AMEN, i've been through this and i'm really THRIVING at the moment. My life has got sooooo much better since I finally quit my narcisstic relationship. Took me over a year to leave. But I did it.

[@carlhouseofoliver345]

Yeah its worse than quitting alcohol addiction!! I was blessed w a download after Kinesiology session that i was addicted to the Dopamine hit i would chase and get from my toxic partner. I too was the toxic partner in so many ways!!! I ignored all the red flags because i needed to feel connected and when i wasnt connected i was in withdrawal and it is the most painful experience ive ever experienced!!! I only just walked away from my 5yr relationship yesterday and i knew before i ended it, it was about to become a hell ride. I just pray im a strong enough man to get through this 🙏

[@LesleySASMR]

I wonder if that’s what I’m experiencing? I left my toxic partner of 5 years over a year ago. I was feeling amazing because I was focusing on myself. But anytime I tried dating, I started feeling this insane fear, depression, confusion, panic. I was dating this guy who tried to help me through it for a few months but I pushed him away because I didn’t know what was happening to me. I felt crazy! But I really am experiencing the not-getting-out-of-bed type of depression. Does it happen after such a long time? I think maybe because I didn’t give myself permission to process the breakup and now I finally have.

[@evonne315]

Its been about a year for me of recovering so far. Finally feeling normalish. Its best to aknowledge the relationship is harmful and the best thing you can do is break it off, learn from it, and become a better person yourself. Let the rest go.

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

I kept trying to end it. I just couldn’t get away in time. Smh

[@GTNSHORTS]

Finally someone gets it!!! THANK YOU ☺️

[@notdefining]

Wow I literally cannot tell you how much this has helped me. Thank you so so much you are amazing.

[@psolver8147]

Thanks I needed this. Got people trying to creep in my life I’ve got no interest chilling with.

[@1joannemarie]

I went through this withdrawal around 8 months ago when I realized I was in a codependent narc. abusive relationship with a family member. It was very painful to break things off- body, mind, and soul! I did a lot of inner work in the months following, and am now in a better place. We did rekindle the connection, but I am at this point more guarded with what I share, and keep stronger boundaries. Overall it helped my spiritual growth.

[@Julesyoutoo]

Thank you so much for this, Candace. Last Sunday, I finally walked away from a 5-year narcissistic relationship. Just like you say, I was ok for a day or two, and now (day five) I feel worse than death. Because it is a death - a death of being addicted to a self-centred person who only ever gave me crumbs of love and care. Your words comfort me during this horrid period of cold turkey.

[@theblackphoenix447]

I stumbled upon this video today & WOW. I was married to a toxic person for 16 years together for 20 with 3 kids. I finally filed for divorce. I’ve been trying to figure out what’s wrong with me. This explains it!

[@bradleytik8885]

This video needs to be saved through all of man kind. Wow. Thank you

[@definitelymaybe_cath]

I can totally relate to the "Opinion Detox" T_T Sometimes I just want to shut down all the noises outside me so I can hear my own opinion without the biases of others.

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

Exactly when I talked to certain family about this. They would judge me and look at me like I’m a selfish person for constantly leaving and coming back to my ex. I wasn’t a bad person. Just a addict

[@prairie_rose]

Exactly what I need to see today Candace! I had a lapse and went back to a trauma bond relationship. I am in withdrawal again because he left again so thank you! Have to learn to fill the void on my own.

[@helloeveryone9643]

your videos make me feel that I shouldnt need anyone to a point where now i cannot talk or connect with anyone about anything cause its all mundane stuff and I can only connect on deep level

[@chloelovett6722]

Wow all of this was just what I needed to hear. Never heard it explained this way. Thank you ❤️

[@mariaziarnik6909]

Thank you for this powerful message that I needed to hear this to validate the toxic relationship I tore away from 4 years ago. It was a few toxic family members that were overly critical and judgmental.

[@TheWallaceReboot]

Watched twice, took notes and shared. In flow tonight and grateful to be guided to this...exactly what I needed to hear!

[@melgreen5927]

Spot on. I did all.these things. I love listening to you Candace. I find my peace

[@gloriareyna2248]

Thank you for your work. I am currently going through withdrawals and it sucks. I've been reading about addiction and trauma and what you say is true. Dr. Gabor Mate is exceptional in talking about trauma and yet I feel that having a channel like yours is beneficial because I didn't know I could be addicted to my partner and the toxicity of a relationship. Thank you again. 🙏

[@nafeesa14]

Wow how timely holy moly. This is soooo helpful and thank you 😊 🙏 I get so mad at myself

[@whatjonisees]

Thank you Candace, new subscriber. Appreciate you keepin’ it real and acknowledging that we need to release the trauma. 🙌🏻✨💖

[@Eva.Chrissa]

My biological family is worse toxic than my ex with whom I’ve been involved for about 8y (him coming and leaving) and I leave in a country with little to no emotional support cause I’m not the type of person to connect with anyone. So the process of leaving for me and no contact it’s almost comparable with hell

[@baxiaaa]

Omg yes, that’s so true. I’m in this right now. Thank you!

[@justinroberts779]

Thank you Candace....I needed to hear this today!

[@drewmcgrath2450]

This reminded me of your EFT vid. Ill have to go back and give that another watch. Gong through this topic with family right now. Thanks Candace

[@jeremiahanderson7203]

After listening and searching for ways to improve self love and maintaining true value and independence in myself and to my inner child, I’m struggling with this and I can’t really get past this question: How do you deal with the guilt of knowing you weren’t healthy and healed enough to be in a relationship, caused some turmoil, (in addition to the other persons unhealed traumas) and the relationship ended in a toxic way? I gave an ultimatum for a boundary that I needed and asked him if he could meet it. I think my emotional volume was up way too loud, because I was learning how to regulate the volume of emotions and how to communicate the boundary being crossed in a loving way. How should I approach this conversation with myself in a forgiving way?

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

I still struggle to forgive myself for the part I played in. For being a unhealthy person

[@Qwerty_7575]

Just stumbled upod this vid randomly. I needed this. Thank you!!

[@momione11]

True, this happened once more in life. But it also became an awakening that is not enough. But had pain in the body that was tough and a sadness. Which consisted of old truaman that came up. But this also became the way to myself.

[@marcellusrobinson1465]

I really appreciate this video because it is the one video I’ve found on KZbin that fully explains what I was dealing with with my ex. Other vids came close. But this one is spot on Now I know I’m not crazy. Thank you Candace

[@jacksaintjack2844]

I have never loved anyone as I did her. Never had anyone express the amount of love and affection she did. It was almost overwhelming. She raised one red flag after another over time, until the last one revealed that I was being manipulated the entire time. Knowing this has made it so easy to write her a goodbye letter and not feel any pain inside. Cheat on me. Lie to me. Manipulate me. Ignore me. Any of these will kill all of the love I once had inside and replace it with anger and resentment which will prevent me from suffering at all. Good riddance.

[@hakeemduran3741]

THIS IS A HELP 👍🏽 thanks 😊💯

for some reason I find it easier to withdraw yourself day by day until it ends naturally vs just getting up and leave
