Idealwolf: Starting Anew with No Plan and a Cat
After escaping a 25-year marriage to a narcissistic, alcoholic groomer, I’m on a journey to finally figure out who I really am—without anyone else’s suggestions. The whole experience left me shattered, but the pieces are still in perfect condition and I’m determined to put them back together and build something better, even if it feels like an ongoing DIY project.
These days, I’m working remotely, diving into photography, art, and exploring, with a shady fur demon (cat) by my side, judging my every move. This website documents my attempts at solo-adulting while sharing tips and laughs with anyone else who’s on a similar rollercoaster.
My Mission: From Survivor to Guide
As a survivor of a narcissistic groomer, I know firsthand how difficult and overwhelming the journey can be. But I also know there’s life on the other side. My purpose here on IdealWolf.com is to share what I’ve learned, and to educate and empower others who may find themselves in similar situations. I’m here to provide resources and guidance, helping you understand the tactics narcissists use to manipulate and control, so you can navigate your situation with greater clarity and strength.
Starting over from scratch can feel like an impossible task, but it doesn’t have to be. I want to make it less overwhelming by offering support and practical steps to help you rebuild your life. Starting over isn’t just an end—it’s the beginning of something better, something that belongs entirely to you.
And most importantly, I’m here to remind you that there is life beyond being a narcissist’s victim. You are more than what you’ve been through. I’ll share hobbies and interests that helped me reconnect with myself, and encourage you to explore what brings you joy and fulfillment. Together, we can rediscover that life has so much more to offer.
You’re not alone on this journey. There’s a community here waiting to walk beside you, one step at a time.
