True Love Scam Recovery Reader’s Say…

It isn’t easy crawling from
the depths of hell after a sociopath
or what many are calling a “narcissist”.
Only those who’ve been through it
can anywhere near to understanding the horror.
You’re not alone, but in excellent company.

Reader’s Comments and Victories in Healing

Greetings to you, Warrior!! You are so good at this. So good for us. I hope we do some good for you too. Thank you for your contribution to my book! ~ Shahida Arabi, Becoming the Narcissist’s Nightmare

I really want to thank you, Jennifer, for getting the word out about these creatures. I’d still be longing for him if it weren’t for you. ~ Tasha, SOS Partner and contributor to “Breaking Up with Evil: Escaping Coercive Control

This is one of the most accurate things I have read in description of the behaviors. This is exactly what I went through dating a sociopath. The fluid sexuality, the control, the love bombing, the alcohol addiction, the anger at every perceived offense, faking illness, cheating with multiple women, charming, lying, all of it. Thank you! ~ A.N.

One of the most well written articles I’ve seen in a long time on this subject. ~ M.M. “PTSD is a Thing After Life with a Sociopath

Hidden Traits of a Sociopath” Fantastic use of analogy comparing natives and discoverers coming ashore. It gave me a good new insight “why” and made sense of my own inability to “know”. ~ B.O.G.

AMAZING article — so very accurate. Absolutely in line with every credible piece of academic literature as well as self-help advice I have been both striving to prove, teach, and take myself for the past 30+ years. An incredible resource on the rise, sharing no BS validations for readers who themselves have gone through similar encounters. ~ K.D.

Sociopaths Hate Us, So Does the Narcissist” Brilliant article, thank you! It’s a perfect description of sociopathy, as antisocial (ASPD) sociopathy/psychopathy. ~ E.I.

I did date a sociopath last year, and your site was extremely helpful. Thank you for doing this work — so many people need to hear what you have to say, and the easily understandable way in which you express it. Your writing is very forthright, pulls no punches, and doesn’t use a lot technical terms that can be over people’s heads. Thank you! ~ B.Y.

Thank you for continuing to share with us and for being SO Brave! God Bless! ~ C.P.

You’re an angel to me, you are. I’ve been reading about this online for a year. Your website stuck out to me. You talk about things the others don’t. I thought: this woman knows what she’s talking about. She’s been there. ~ A.W.

You help me get through the hard days. Keep up the good work. ~ A.M.

I appreciate this site so much! I’ve been in a “relationship” with a sociopath online and it has been such a horrible experience…I made myself small and weak so as not to threaten him. Why?! I don’t even know him! Now I see him doing this to others… I wish I could warn people about him. He uses others to make himself look good and important. He steals their ideas, work, and time. But everyone thinks he’s the greatest guy in the world! I feel like I’m the only one who sees what he is…Your writing has really, really helped to give me clarity. Thank you! ~ G.B.

This was amazingly eye-opening. This is the best description I’ve seen so far and frighteningly accurate. Thank you. ~ M.M.

I really want to thank you, Jennifer, for getting the word out about these creatures. I’d still be longing for him if it weren’t for you. ~ Tasha, SOS Partner and contributor to “Breaking Up with Evil: Escaping Coercive Control

Hi there, Loveeeee your blog and follow it regularly. Today makes a year for his departure. Your blog helps me a lot n calms me down. ~ T.M.

Another excellent, informative article. Hits the nail on the head! ~ A Butterfly Effect FB page, “Sociopaths Sexual Boundaries

These articles are so helpful, THANK YOU from the bottom of heart. I now know I’m not crazy and I still exist, I just have to fight/kick/claw and scratch my way out of this horror show. ~ M.P.

I am so happy someone shared this site with me. It’s the first thing I’ve read that totally explains everything. Thank you so much! ~ R.M.

I recently went on a date with a guy who started it with asking me if I was a sociopath then followed by a million red flags and harassing text messas when I didn’t text him back. Thank you for all your website and all your help to educate us all on monsters out there. ~ K.K.

I just wanted to say I think you’re an amazing woman and author. What you are doing is very noble and you are doing a tremendous service to those suffering from having been targets of sociopaths. I have not broken free yet but I know I can and I will. And I fully embrace that I was not the problem. That was the hardest part for these past years. It’s so interesting, when our minds/spirit cannot cope/reconcile what we know is true, it finds it’s own defense mechanism – denial, delay, disbelief that the person we thought we knew, one of the souls we loved most on this earth….wasn’t real, didn’t exist. And in truth, that is A LOT to deal with. I may book your sessions but I have to tell you, Jennifer that your articles are one of the greatest blessings I could have received during this ordeal. ~ P.K.

So accurate. Exactly what I experienced. “Promises of a Con Man” ~ A.Y.

“Wow!  You certainly have a profound understanding of even the minutest details of the sociopathic intellect. This observation is spot on! Yet, so many miss this. I’m looking at clothing, a guitar (amazing he left that because he used to cherish it), books, an old computer, photographs of him when he was younger, photos of his children…the mind boggles. Walking robots, they are. Thanks for the incredibly insightful article!  Keep up the great work!” ~ H.G. “What Am I Supposed to Do With All This Junk?

Thank you for this site, it has truly validated my experience with a sociopathic husband and to be able to move forward to a much better future! ~ T.P.

Thanks so much for your articles. Very thoughtfully written information about truths that most of us “victims” don’t want to face. ~ M.W.

I am overwhelmed at the exact representation of the last five years of my life. I was supposed to be the sociopath’s 3rd dead wife and barely got out with my life and sanity intact. He still haunts me and does everything he can to destroy me but I am an absolute force to be reckoned with and he will burn in hell with the truth exposed and I am living my best life ever! ~ W.F.

Sociopaths Hate Us, So Does the Narcissist” Excellent article, including the section on how to break up with them. ~ J.J.

I just laughed and cried my way through your
entire website. Just so beautiful and insightful! ~ S.

Thank you for this blog! Best one on this subject I’ve read. ~ H.G.

Thank you for this! This is exactly where I am at right now. I have all his junk in the back of my car not knowing what to do with it. As much as burning it and dancing around the flames sounds I think donating it sounds like a nice plan too. I guess that’s why we make good targets we are too nice and always thinking of others even after we’ve been hurt. But without kindness in this world there really would be no hope. Thank you for your articles,  Jennifer! ~ R.P.

Just talking to you, now I feel
like a human again. I haven’t felt like this in 3 years. ~ M.

How to End It With a Sociopath” This article I just read about how to break up with a sociopath was a real breakthrough. I’m going to enjoy the next few days/weeks/months being totally helpless and incompetent. LOL ~ J.Y.

Your website is so dead on and your writing is compassionate and fantastic. When I feel weak or overwhelmed, I read something from your website. It is amazingly perfect for my situation. ~ J.N.R.

The saddest part about a site like yours is that most current victims of a psychopath, sociopath, or narcissist will not read them. Even if they want to discover what is wrong and finally believe they are not to blame, the enormity of the truth is too much to handle. I know. I was there. My mother had to feed me little bits of the truth at a time and try to keep me from falling until I could absorb them. I now have a friend who is married to a sociopath / narcissist. She is trying so hard to leave him but still believes his behavior is somehow her fault. I am hoping that giving her small snippets of your posts will slowly give her the strength to end the relationship. I think you … are correct that leaving has to look like the sociopath’s idea. People with no boundaries are dangerous … when provoked. ~ A.W.

This article is amazing! ~ C.V. “5 Reasons the Sociopath Nut-Bag isn’t Hoovering

I think this article is true and amazing. I had over eight years of unimaginable HELL with this monster. I know it is very dangerous trying to expose these monsters but I put my story out there and helped save three women. ~ M.C.

This is sooooo good!! ~ T.F. “The Sociopath Behind the Mask

Jennifer, Thank you for everything! I am so encouraged and felt so validated just having someone to talk to who understands and has so many gifts – writing and caring. Right at this moment, for the first time in WEEKS, I feel a sense that I’m going to be alright; that I can fully heal; that I still have my identity. It’s just going to take time, and as you said, it’s not even been a year yet. Thank you for lifting my spirits. It’s like a healing balm. ~ A.J.

I greatly appreciate it. ~ A.P. “How Sociopaths Break Up With Us

The Sociopath Behind the Mask” Wow, this article truly moved me. The moment I realized I was scammed, I went into an emotional vortex.

Hi there, Loveeeee your blog and follow it regularly. Today makes a year for his departure. Your blog helps me a lot n calms me down. ~  T.M.

This is so helpful. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this. He has taken my soul as well as my money.

Thanks for your replay. What you say is so true and spot on. This site is brilliant it’s the key to the door that has opened to save me. I thought it was me. I thought I was doing things wrong. Yet it wasn’t me. I keep reading and rereading and I go from a sort of euphoria as another question gets answered to all the nasty behaviour to feeling depressed and nauseous in the next breath. What I find truly amazing is that they seem to all behave in the same way these sociopaths. I thought my ex was truly unique and special yet on reading all this she was just following some perverse twisted set of behaviours of her kind. It’s like finding out the person you loved and trusted turned out to be a monstrous vampire. ~ B.

Brilliant article. ~ C.D. “D.I.Y. Guide to a Sociopath’s Psyche

Thank you for your kind words and support. Your blog focuses on the con man/love scam and the ptsd it causes. This is exactly what I need. I needed more tools for recovery, to move on with my life. I’m amazed at the personal growth and changes in myself. I’m a new person with confidence and something extra. ~ L.L. “PTSD After a Sociopath

I am healing my wounds with your wisdom and words. You have truly been a lighthouse for me during a time seeped in darkness. Keep sending your light. ~ P.

I love, love, love reading your emails and the links. When I’m having a moment I reread your email. I know it will get easier it just takes time and realizing who and what he really is. I want to thank you again. Thank you for the information. You don’t understand how helpful and comforting your words are right now. It’s EXACTLY what I need, when I feel like I’m falling apart. Thank you! ~ A.O.

Thank you so much for your support. It’s Priceless. It’s all coming together. Wish it didn’t have to be so painful.  ~ J.M.

Thanks for your page – it really has helped me heal from the nightmare that was my sociopath and I didn’t know for a long time what had even happened. So again, thanks! ~ A.G.

Hi, I have been reading your site & I LOVE IT. I can’t stop reading it’s BRILLIANT. ~ F.

Your website is what gave me the most consolation and understanding. Thanks for all you are doing and for your website. ~ E.R.

Good day, I just ended a 10+ year relationship with a Sociopath which honestly until I kicked him out and started to google some of the “issues” in our relationship did all of this information come up about Sociopaths/Narcs/etc. I am so grateful to sites like yours and I wish to start a physical support group in ___ .  I personally was not even aware that such HORRIBLE entities walk among us and look totally normal, personally after my ordeal, some days as I am still too raw. I feel they should glow in the dark or something!! 🙂 Namaste. ~ B. Narcissist vs. Sociopath vs. Happy

I am so happy to have found your link Jennifer…thank you for all you are doing for me, and so many others. ~ N.W.

Awesome articles. ~ J.K.

I’m trying to survive the ‘love of my life’. That sentence should never need to be said. There is something diabolical in the ability to use another’s love against them. To turn their heart inside out. To know you’ve destroyed another person’s coping mechanism and called it love. It’s malevolent. It’s inherently evil and sadistic to feed off the very souls of the ones who trust you the most. ~ M.

Thanks for making this. I spent 5 years lost part of my soul, financial resources etc. I could write a book. 🙁 ~ A.

I felt good sharing my experience even though I don’t know you. You and your page is more than awesome. Your articles helped me a lot. I am seeing things clear as I was blinded by him. I reported and blocked him again. Glad that you are sharing your experiences and helping with victims like me. I discovered his true colors. Thank you once again! ~ B.R.

Thank you. ~ L.C.

Your site amazes me. Your dedication is profound, your capacity to pierce through intrigues me. I see in your writing great compassion for yourself and others in the midst of all. You are blessed and your sharing with the world is a great gift. ~ M.E.

This site is saving me. Thank you for all your hard work and sharing. ~ S.

Hey there! Just finished reading your article,”PTSD After a Sociopath” on and really loved it. I just wanted to point out – and maybe your site is designed for women – but this happens to all of us. Women to men, men to men, women to women. I am a gay man who was thrown away by a P 6 months ago and the issues are the same in many ways. Just a comment – great job! ~ J., Male reader

I am well on the way of healing but sometimes I need some inspiration. Very interesting posts. Thank you. ~ C.

Great post today! All about the a-z girlfriends… it was AMAZING and helped me at the right exact moment. Thanks for all your time and posts! They are great. ~ A.O.

I loved it!! I actually love all of your posts. I haven’t even met you.  But your understanding of me is so crazy and spot on! I seriously was in a black hole! And you responding to me with knowledge and words you put it. Helped me, more then you will ever know.  I did go to a therapist last week and he kept showing me to quit living in the past.  To live in the here and now.  And every time I wonder about him and her in am living in the past. That helped a lot too! Between you and him I can’t tell who I love more! Lol. I wish I could hug you!!! If you ever come to Vegas you have to let me buy you dinner. Thank you so much for all your time and compassion.  I seriously don’t know where I would be right now without it. Have a great Sunday!! ~ More A.O.

Thank you so much for the encouragement. I thought I was going crazy for the longest time. Finding others who could articulate the same hellish experiences I’d gone through was enlightening. I’m trying to survive the ‘love of my life’. That sentence should never need to be said. There’s something diabolical in the ability to use another’s love against them. ~ M.

Sociopath’s Other Women” Thank you so much for this article. It’s life giving! This is exactly what the sociopath did to me! ~ J.G.

Thanks Jennifer!!!! I have to say that in the moment I found the strength to break up, I physically felt better. Immediately. I did not cry anymore (I was crying every single day and night for the past 7 months, when I started seeing the reality), the anxiety stopped, the nightmares stopped…all good signs that it is the right way to go. I still feel ashamed and stupid for letting an idiotic asshole do this to me, to allow him that much. I am working on these feelings by reading your articles and rationalizing. By telling myself that he should be ashamed , not me. By telling myself that if he ‘chose’ me is because he saw soft heart, generosity, care…all good things i have to be proud of…all good things he took advantage of… Thank you again for your time, your opinions, your story; thank you for your website, so far the best ‘cure’ for me, together with the words of a couple of other girls he recently tried to charm and that I manage to contact…It made me feel understood and gave me a sense of consolation. Thanks and have a lovely day 🙂 ~ E.

3 Powerful Ways to Rewire Trauma” I am so happy to have found your link Jennifer….thank you for all you are doing for me, and so many (too many!) Others. ~ N.W.

Thanks for your website. I appreciate your candid/direct writing style. I’m just getting out of a seven month relationship with a sociopath, I ended it last Thursday. This is the third time I fell for a con man.  Thanks again for the website and help you’re offering other victims. ~ M.

Thank you. You have opened my eyes. I’ve Identified with your help, what has happened to me: I’ve spent my entire life with sociopaths. As liberating as it is painful I will be forever grateful for this revelation. Thank you. I know I’m barely at the beginning of healing and there are some dark days ahead but I have not felt I was on the right path till now. Thank you so much. I’m going to need as much help as I can get. ~ L.C., Male reader

Thank you. ~ J.

It’s not a situation I ever imagined myself in. But reading the articles I know I am not alone and actually meet people almost everyday who have met or been involved with one. I was glad to have been told about your blog and now am on the road of learning the signs and red flags to watch out for!! ~ K.M.

Ameeeeeen. I needed this soooooo much! Thank you! ~ A.D.

I found your site to be extremely helpful, well written and easy on the eyes to navigate. Most particularly your discussion on PTSD was enlightening and comforting in many respects. I have discovered through this experience that there are few who really do understand and those who simply choose to blame the victim. Thank you for the insight and advice. ~ M.A.

Thank you for this info…I need it. ~ D.E.

Thanks for the articles! Gives me so much clarity and info. ~ L.C.

I first want to thank you for your supportive words in your website. I was in a relationship with a sociopath for 8 months, the break up wasn’t a clean one… I know I deserve better …Also, I used to not have high levels of anxiety, but now I do. And I got my first panic attack a few weeks ago. I do not know if it is just coincidence or if I have PTSD but I would appreciate your help. Thank you, I look forward hearing from you. ~ J.G.

What a fantastic website… Our story has so many similarities I wondered if we were married to the same man!! ~ K.S.

Thank you 🙂 I also just recently read your article, “Rebuild Health After a Sociopath” the one you recently e-mailed as well; I loved them. Please know that your writing is very helpful <3  It brings me hope and it lets me know that I am not alone. Also, although I eat healthy, I definitely don’t eat that much recently after my breakup; even my parents have noticed. I will try my best to get back to eating normal again and at the same time always thinking healthy foods… with your experience, you are making a difference in other victims’ lives. Thank you for all your help. I hope you have a good night 🙂 ~ J.G.

Thank you True Love Scam readers! My heart and prayers go out to each of you, to each of us. There’s nothing like the bravery, strength, and courage of all of us amazing women and men who’ve walked through the labyrinth of lies and broken free from the deceptions, and endured the maze of a sociopath’s brain.

Our wonderous human compassion, empathy, loving, trustworthy, and trusting natures are what brought us here and they are also our saving grace. We’re our own Angels. We’re Super Heroes!

Sending all good things, Jennifer Smith
