    WHO AM I?
    Hi! I’m Shaneen Megji. It seems my whole life has prepared me to do the work I am so passionate about today. Let’s just say I had to swim in narcissistic waters for many years, in workplace scenarios, in my previous faith as a Muslim, in friendships, and even in the church. God truly doesn’t waste anything. Each and every experience and all the studies I have done help me in my passion to set people free from the bondage and oppression of narcissistic relationships, to help survivors of such pain regain their authentic selves and their hope in God’s good plans for them, and to re-educate the church around toxic leadership.

    This is such a good explanation of trauma bond. How the narcissist brings the pain and destruction but then turns around and brings the relief just when you can't hold on any longer. Realizing this pattern literally causes a chemical reaction in your body and muscle memory is a really powerful revelation.

    Great video, I am in this situation right now, I have been married for over 30 years, I just started learning about narcissism and realized that my husband is a covert one. I have made a decision that I want to heal myself and even break free from him. Growing up in an alcoholic home, I know I am codependent, I will have to go through a struggle to get to the other side, knowing that you wasted your life in a toxic person for so many years is sad and overwhelming but I know with God's help I will get through this. I have to hang on to the truth that God is in control and He is the only one that can give me that peace that surpasses all understanding.

    Once again God coming through using you in this journey of healing. Thank you so much for your wisdom and sharing increasing my wisdom and discernment. I love how you used the analogy of them leaving u in the desert then picking u up in the most extravagant ways so u forget they were the ones that put u there in the 1st place. It's definitely that way. During this time away from the narcissist and separating myself from this trauma bond I feel like those drug addicts that are going through withdraws from their drug. Although I may not be vomiting or shaking or sweating etc on the outside inside my soul my spirit my mind feel as if it is. It can get unbearable at times.. This has been the most difficult breakup I've ever experienced in my life and I've had horrible ones but not from how a narcissist played me. I know my God is bigger and He definitely brings me peace and love on my most difficult days of withdrawal. I appreciate your videos. I feel God holding my hand through it all with these. Thank you 💘

He is the One we can always count on to be there and never abandon us. I'm also so glad that you are experiencing God's comfort while watching my videos.

      Thank you so much. It is always so good to hear the truth of God. I went through quite a long trauma, at first without even knowing that I had a trauma. And this is because you feel released as well as completely broken and shattered at the same time. God himself broke my bond by separating me from the narcissist, because I probably would have never done it. It is a great mission to help people, and I mean everyone, to identify the narcissist. God bless you.

      Trauma bonding is like a curse. We are made slaves as we allow ourselves to be 'bound' to them. We need to ask God's forgiveness for 'idolising' them. We need to see the 'rituals' and 'Sacrifices' we make to them and the relationships. We need to break the soul tie as mentioned which involves 'forgiveness' and acceptance of our part in these toxic relationships. Power and control (superiority) are the dynamics of the conquest, this is the energy they need to feed their sense of inferiority. I believe the nazi spirit and the fruit of it can be equated to the narcissistic spirit. This revelation brought me the understanding needed to see the truth and trust Jesus to set me free

I pray you keep on posting and supporting victims of these damaging individuals, but realise that could impact highly upon you. May God Bless keep and protect you in your life and the ministry of this work. The post with Laben and Jacob, where even God ultimately arranges no contact between the two and never the two will be involved again.....I am praying to be left in peace by God's Graces and his divine intervention. Miracles can and do happen. Praise be God. Amen. Thank you Shaneen.🙏😇🌌🌠✨💫🌟⭐

It should be a crime to destroy someone's mind, body, and soul in the name of love. I hate this exists. I really hate it! I feel as if I will never recover. Or leave and feel like this always. I have done everything including keeping grounded in The Hamachiach. I'm broken and healing seems far from me. I won't give up.

    It’s like they starve you of food and water in the desert 🏜 and then give you a feast after watching you suffer. They feel when you’re suffering, I believe, when the trauma bond isn’t broken. You can be no contact even, but if you don’t break the bond they still have this sick sense of control; you still can’t let go. Jesus is the ONLY way out of these demonic experiences.

I had to leave before I was fully prepared, but have peace at last.

      Neglectful narcissists are just that: you can’t rely on them when you’re sick; they don’t like the bother and inconvenience. And they are neglectful because they are 100% self absorbed. They can’t think past themselves to consider other’s needs. Speaking from 44 years of marriage to a narcissist. Bottom line: It’s ALL about THEM!

    He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
    To proclaim liberty to captives
    And freedom to prisoners;

    My best friend, and love of my life, has been in a terribly abusive relationship with the narcissist father of her child.
    She's tried to leave him 4 times, the last two times were with me. Each time she begins to blossom and emerge from her shell, she starts to feel hopeful again, and then, without warning, he's suddenly back. She knows he makes her miserable, she knows it's damaging to her daughter, she knows she's happier with me, but... She has not been able to free herself yet. I won't abandon her, she saved my life when I was at my lowest. Without her, I would have died with a noose around my neck in some closet. She grips onto our intimate friendship like the drowning would onto a little raft. It hurts when the pendulum swings back, but I am strong and I have a good therapist. My therapist warned me, but doesn't try to dissuade me. She knows that this woman saved my life. I fear for her safety, he's maimed her before and I believe it's only a matter of time until he either does it again or kills her. I'm not going anywhere. I could live ten thousand lifetimes and I would never find another like her. She saved my life, I'm going to repay that debt.

    Thank you. You have no idea how much your videos have helped me to see clearly. Everytime I start to doubt what I'm thinking and seeing and what The Father is revealing to me, one of your videos brings me back to reality. Although, I'm still not sure I know what reality is yet, it seems like what might be the reality is harder to believe than the fantasy.
    I'm hoping and praying that I am right in my speculations, and not accusing someone of something that is not true. Far be it from me to do so.

    Thank you so much for your spiritual view of what life with a Narcissist is like
    My Narc husband died in Jan 2022.
    45 yrs of emotional abuse was hard and very traumatic. But the Lord gave me the grace to serve Him and be a good wife .
    Since his death I started the journey to Detoxing from the effects of the abuse .
    I have gone through all the stages of grief....anger being the strongest emotion. He wore 3 mask....one for the public and his Fan Club, another for his private life with me and one for his secret life of cheating, stealing money and lieing. I look back now after recovery and Thank my Lord and Savior for giving me the strength to go through it all. I am 69 yrs old and have completely started over in life. I cut all ties with his family , I call them the Narc cult, have changed churches and cut ties with his business associates, who were involved with him sexually . I feel good about the future and the direction the Lord has pointed me to. Praise God for people like you who have traveled this road before me, and are willing to share your wisdom and knowledge with those of us who have struggled. I give God praise for setting me Free from the narcissist .

I feel so understood by your story because it is mine. I know I'm trauma bonded, but I fight him often. Not good, but dont want to be run over. Jesus is the only way out of my mess. I cry put to him often. I'd like to ask you, how are you a good wife without being a doormat? God bless you sister, I want that. Much is hidden from my family, and a few friends know the truth.

He then systematically turned our children against me. I still have problems with my eldest son today. I am so pleased to have found Shaneen, and I have been concentrating on getting myself healed. I'm seeing a psychologist but also going to watch some more videos and praying for the healing to be transformative as I am too scared of venturing out these days.

She sees and understands how abusive her dad is towards her and me, but still chooses to have a so called 'relationship' with him and feed off his crumbs. So, this means that although he's been gone for 14 months now, he continues to hurt and abuse us both (because I feel her hurt) and continues to deny all of it. UGH!!! . I don't know what to do except detach. I finally got him out of my/our life but I'm still being abused by proxy. I'm trying to convince her to watch these videos and break soul ties etc., but she's too hurt to do that. Feels like we're in a catch 22 and a nightmare that we can't escape from. Jesus help!!!
