Why is it so hard to move on from a toxic relationship, even when you know leaving was the right thing to do? And why does it feel like the person you left is still living rent-free in your mind?
In this episode of Ask Angela: Relationship Advice for Love After Trauma, Angela Amias responds to a listener who is struggling to move forward after an 11-year relationship with a vulnerable narcissist—even nine months after the breakup.
Angela explores:
- Why moving on emotionally takes longer than we want it to
- How toxic dynamics leave deep imprints that healing must slowly unwind
- Why intrusive thoughts and memories are part of the healing—not signs of failure
- How time, distance, and self-compassion create space for real recovery
- What it really means to “move through” pain, not just "get over" it
- How to see painful memories as holding hidden wisdom for your future
If you’re finding it hard to stop thinking about an ex who hurt you—or you feel frustrated with how long healing is taking—this episode offers honest, hopeful guidance to help you trust your own timing.
