My name is Tasha, and I feel like I lost myself in Kaleb's world. He was charming, magnetic, and confident—everything I thought I needed. But soon enough, his narcissistic traits surfaced. I found myself isolated, my opinions belittled, my self-esteem shattered.

Healing began through journaling, prompted by a therapist who recognized signs of narcissistic abuse long before I could accept them myself. She gave me prompts that forced me to see Kaleb clearly—to name the manipulation, the gaslighting, the emotional neglect. At first, writing made me angry, then it made me cry, but eventually, it made me strong.

Now, my journal entries show my evolution from victim to survivor. They remind me that Kalebs’s reflection no longer controls my self-image. I'm reclaiming my story, one day at a time.
