Great article Christine. I spent 25 years of my adult life in a cult under the influence of a narcissistic sociopath. So, I know a thing or two about them. Filmmaker Will Allen revealed our experience in that life in the internationally viewed movie, Holy Hell, which is now available on Amazon Prime. I am presently completing my book, THE FOLLOWERS: “Holy Hell” and the Cult of Trump and Other Narcissistic, Authoritarian Leaders: How My Years in a Notorious Cult Parallel Trumpmania.

Everything you cover is RIGHT ON and very important tools to learn from. It took me decades of my life to learn the hard way. Thanks for your words of wisdom.
