"I really respect that and think those are the steps that work the best...
There is one more step and it is way harder than expected for adult children of narcissists. It's creating and maintaining a good life. It's an automatic reflex to abandon oneself to others and hard to come into one's own life, truly, bring joy into one's life and thrive. It means creating and sustaining a loving inner parent.

Reparenting oneself is an ongoing process, which means many things,
including becoming a healthy adult, inner and outer."

This is what all we codependents need to practice and follow.
Sounds simple, and it's not easy, but all is POSSIBLE.
With Patience, Practice and Prayer.
Dear God, please show me The Way.
