The psychological prison of narcissistic abuse is very subtle and it often takes years or decades to figure out we've been trapped. Awareness is the first step in freeing yourself from this prison. Once we're aware, we can begin healing and plan our escape. Do the work to heal and free yourself and live your life! image
We are ready to cut toxic people out of our lives, when we are. There are many other people, who may not be toxic, but maybe toxic to us. Many of these people are also unwilling to own it or work on it. How many chances do these people get before we distance ourselves from them? There's no right answer, only what we choose for ourselves.
Narcissists will never admit or own the negative things they do because it would shatter the illusion they live in. It’s their home and they’re unwilling to move out. Nothing we can do will change that. We don’t have to live there though. We can move out whether we shatter their illusion or not.
Narcissists want to ruin everything, but they often use our words and language against us. They will gaslight us into believing that we are saying words or phrases wrong, just to mess with and confuse us. It has nothing to do with this and everything to do with control. What are the words or phrases your ex used against you?
I'm sorry. I do not ever want anyone to think anything I talk about on my videos is calling them out, unless I clearly say that. I also don't post anything specific without getting permission first. It's never my intention to bring any additional shame, judgement or grief to anyone's life. While this video is a bit light hearted, please also realize I take all of this seriously. I love you all and thank you for being here!!❀️
Narcissistic abuse takes all of the good things about you and turns them around to shame, judge and devalue you with them. You end up questioning if you even had any of the good things you once thought you were. It's all a lie. You don't have to believe their illusion! You are amazing just as you are! image
I probably could have added that hurt people hurt people. The hard part about generalizations is that they are just that, generalizations. They only are helpful when they are. The rest of the time they are absolute garbage! I hope this individual gets the help and support they need. And if I'm wrong in my assumption, I'll own that too.
So many people have dysfunctional behaviors that seem narcissistic. Other people may even say things about them seeming narcissistic. This does not mean that they or you are actually a narcissist. We all have things we can be working through, that doesn't make us a narcissist though. Do the work to heal and move forward with your life.
Narcissists get their supply in any way they can. There's abuse and manipulation of course. They also get it from their pets and children other people by showing the world what a good parent or person they are. This is all an illusion to get supply. We don't have to participate in their illusion!
Narcissists will remove and erase you from their lives faster than even seems possible. They love social media, because they can just erase all memories and evidence you even existed in their lives. This isn’t normal, except for narcissists. The good news then is, hopefully, they’re actually gone from our lives.
