Welcome Survivors! This is a weekly support group meeting designed for established members who are healing from narcissistic abuse, complex post-traumatic stress disorder, and/or codependency.

Welcome to the Coparenting With a Narcissist Support Meeting. This meeting is for established members and focuses specifically on the struggles that come with caring for children with a narcissist.

Whether you are still in a relationship with your co-caregiver, separated, divorced, etc, and whether you’re a parent, step-parent, grandparent, or other caregiver, this group is for those of us who have to navigate the extra complexity that comes from sharing care with narcissistic abusers.

I have three children (from toddler to school age) with my narcissistically abusive husband and we are separated - and I know that this relationship, that I have no choice but to remain in, is difficult for even my most understanding support network to fully grasp.
If this is your first time here, please sign up for a First Timers event. These meetings are to ensure the safety of our members and our hosts as we share sensitive details about our experiences. We also do this to ensure all new members will get a chance to share and introduce themselves right away, this is a way for us to properly meet each of you. Instructions are posted in the First Timers events and we appreciate your cooperation in advance!

This event is for established members only. You must have attended a First Timers event prior to signing up for this one. If you have not attended a First Timers event, you will be removed from the meeting.
Please be advised we require your camera to be on. You may turn it off if you need to step away/etc, but, for the comfort and safety of our group members, we need to see that you’re a real person and experience your body language.

Please take the time to review these points before joining:

1. I am not a mental health counselor, licensed counselor, doctor, or coordinator. I am simply someone who has had a similar experience to the people who meet in these groups. No advice or suggestions in here are to be taken as medical advice. Please see your physician before changing any medication routines, or before making any large life changing decisions. You may discuss coping mechanisms you have learned in a therapy group, or discuss medications that work for you, but be advised this is not medical advice, nor is anything in this group intended to be used for the purpose of a diagnosis or for treatment. Please consult a physician or a mental health counselor. This group is not a therapy group, it is a support group. If you are in dire need of help, suicidal, or in an unsafe situation, please contact your local police or helpline ASAP.
2. I am not an attorney. Nothing said or discussed by me, or anyone else in this group is to be construed as legal advice. We may guide you towards helpful legal resources, but we are not giving you legal advice. Do not take any advice pertaining to law enforcement, courts, any sort of restraining order, attorney references, legal resources, suggestions, etc. as true legal advice. It is simply a suggestion for you to have for your own personal use to make your own personal judgment as what is best for you and your situation.
3. Please remember that not everyone’s experiences are your own. Every one deals with things in different ways, every one copes in different ways, every one reacts in different ways, and every one finds solutions in different ways. Be polite to your group mates, please.
4. Solicitation is not allowed. We offer free resources from time to time. Members love posting informational videos regarding the topics discussed during our meetings and that is absolutely wonderful, we love sharing knowledge! But we will not entertain sales pitches for MLM products, classes, tools, therapy groups, medication, pamphlets, booklets, or any sort of products.
5. There will likely be mentions of all sorts of abuses and triggering topics. We will handle them with as much sensitivity as possible, but cannot control what other group mates say.
6. We encourage everyone to chat and talk and make friends outside the group if you feel comfortable, we love making new friends and broadening our support group! If you feel like you’ve made a connection with a group mate, please message me and I will approach them about exchanging contact information. We do not take kindly to messaging other members trying to push beliefs or information down their throats.
