You know, there comes a moment, a holy trembling moment when a soul says enough is enough. That’s what no contact really is. It’s not just silence; it’s a spiritual rebellion against the chains that once held the heart hostage. It’s the sacred declaration that I will no longer be manipulated, belittled, or emotionally starved for the sake of someone else’s ego.

Behind the curtain, there’s panic—real, deep, soul-rattling panic. Because the narcissist needs attention like lungs need air. Control isn’t just a desire; it’s their lifeline. The moment you remove yourself from their theater, you take the spotlight with you. Suddenly, they’re performing to an empty room.
