Addicted to something shameful

sympatheticBike4506 December 27th, 2020

Hi everyone. My name is Blake, I have an addiction for social media posted by my narcissistic colleague, who gaslighted me, 6 months lasted... I want to quit.... I am blinded by feelings I have for him.

I feel like a drug addict.... I know it is not ok. 😭

I must say it is hard... I feel fighting it is hard...I have no support... I feel crying and beating myself up for it... Because I have little resistance... I have no friends. Everyone considers me guilty and him good.... No one contacts me... I don't speak with him... But I want answers no one can't give me... Why me?

Hi, @sympatheticBike4506, I find gaslighting very common. I've had it happen to me by my coworker whom I've befriended and my supervisor. I want to very much react in negative ways, but I have to refrain and remember that there's a God who knows the truth and the only one who can judge what's in the heart of others.
