June 1st is Narcissistic Abuse Awareness Day, a time to shed light on a form of psychological harm that is often invisible but deeply damaging.

It’s important to understand that not every abuser is a narcissist, but every narcissist is an abuser. Their patterns of manipulation, gaslighting, control, and emotional exploitation leave long‑lasting wounds that many Survivors struggle to name.

Raising awareness helps Survivors feel seen, reduces stigma, and encourages people to recognize the signs of toxic behavior early. Healing begins with knowledge, boundaries, and support.

If you or someone you know has experienced narcissistic abuse, you’re not alone. Your story matters, and recovery is possible.

💜 Community, we need your hearts for a moment. 💜

At Control Alt Delete, we sometimes receive requests that fall outside our usual scope — but every so often, a story reaches us and we feel called to find a way to help.

We’ve been contacted by an advocate we frequently work with about a Survivor who is enduring an almost unimaginable amount of loss and hardship. She is a DV victim in an active criminal case, and in just the past few weeks:

💔 Her niece passed away
💔 Her son’s father passed away the same day in a separate incident
💔 She was told she may have breast cancer

On top of this emotional devastation, she is struggling financially and cannot afford the gas needed to attend the funerals of her loved ones.

🚗💧 Will you help this Survivor with gas so she can say goodbye?
Even a small contribution can lift a tremendous weight during an already unbearable time.

If you feel moved to help, thank you. Your compassion makes a real difference. 💜✨

I have asked the advocate the distance this Survivor will be traveling and will provide a total needed as soon as I have this information.

Control Alt Delete facilitated 2,343 escapes from domestic violence in May 2026 that included 4,373 children and 924 pets ~ who are all now safe 💜

In May 2026 there were 190 elderly escapes and 102 Veterans.

Arizona is the key element in these escapes. Survivors are escaping their abuser and staying in Arizona, they are coming to Arizona from other states or they are fleeing to other states to reach their safety.

Your donations made these escapes possible and with your support we will continue to bridge the gap in services while creating a Society of Survivors 💜

May has officially become a Mega Escape Month at Control Alt Delete — and that’s not good news.
Our escape activity has surged far beyond normal levels, stretching our resources, volunteers, and funding at an alarming pace. 🔧💸

We’re working around the clock to keep up, but the pressure is real.

💜Thank you!

Our community is amazing! Wipes & deodorant for the Control Alt Delete BIN Bins.
May emptied our shelves and we are counting on community support to restock.

If you’d like to help donate hygiene items and essential items can be shipped or dropped off anytime—just leave donations in the courtyard:

💜 This is your donations at work saving lives!

A 24 hour wait for shelter placement is not the narrative often told but is the reality when Survivors follow safe channels to escape.

We are completely out of deodorant for our BIN Bins, and this one hits especially hard.

One Survivor shared that as she walked down a street in Chandler, AZ with her two young kids—escaping her abuser in the heat of April—the thought running through her mind wasn’t safety, food, or shelter. It was:

“I don’t have deodorant and I’m going to stink at work.”

With everything Survivors face, deodorant should never be one more worry.
Our BIN Bins offer dignity by providing essentials without Survivors having to ask.

After a Mega Escape month, we are nearly out of EVERYTHING, and deodorant is at the top of the list.

If you’d like to help, deodorant, any other hygiene items or essentials can be shipped or dropped off anytime—just leave donations in the courtyard:

Your support restores dignity in moments when it’s needed most. 💛

🚨 Urgent Need! We’re completely OUT of baby wipes for our BIN Bins 🚨

Baby wipes help people traveling to safety stay clean, care for kids, and get through long stretches without showers. After a huge Mega Escape month, our shelves are nearly empty of everything for BIN (basic immediate need) Bins.

Want to help? 💛
Drop off or ship baby wipes or any other BIN Bin hygiene items and essentials anytime to:
📍 Control Alt Delete, 3061 E Mallory St, Mesa AZ 85213

Just leave donations in the courtyard. Every item matters. 🧼✨
