the “i wanna go home” never leaves my head even when i’m physically sitting in my bed

[anatidephobia]

completely sober in the club googling WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?

Screw ‘narcissistic abuse awareness day’

Your abuse was valid. Your ableism is not.

Narcissistic people don’t have some special secret way of abusing people that no one else is capable of doing.

If a NPD haver happened to be abusive, they’d use the regular abuse tactics every other shitty person uses.

Autistic people can be abusive, but we don’t call it autistic abuse. People with cerebral palsy can be abusive, but we don’t call it cerebral palsy abuse.

Being abusive is a choice, having a personality disorder is not.

Blame the person, not the disorder.

Stop saying…

“Psychotic/Schizophrenic” when you mean: unpredictable, unhinged, unreal, etc.

“Bipolar” when you mean: polarized, scattered, fickle, unstable, etc.

“Delusional” when you mean: unrealistic, unreasonable, close-minded, stubborn, etc.

“[insert “R” slur in relation to intellectual disabilities]” when you mean: unreasonable, unintelligent/ridiculous, immature, etc.

“OCD” when you mean: particular, neat, overbearing, etc.

“Narcissistic” when you mean selfish, abusive, manipulative, etc.

Note: I’m NOT saying that these are synonymous. This is also not an exhaustive list.

(said shakily, through tears) I'm so cool and nonchalant... i handle criticism so well... I don't need to strive to be the best because I'm already the best... I'm the genius of the century... everyone loves me...

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i can’t change

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i automatically am a bad person

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD my partner should leave me

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i can’t be self aware

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i can’t be hurt by anything and anyone

im DONE with being treated like a subhuman and bad person just because i was diagnosed with NPD.

not every person with the same diagnosis IS the same.

im so fed up with the constant hate and negativity people with cluster b pds, especially npd and aspd, have to face on the internet.

every single „psychological” account on social media has at least one post absolutely demonising narcissists.

there are countless accounts dedicated only to „narcissistic abuse” awareness, hating and spreading hurtful misinformation about NPD.

and don’t even mention those millions of books written by professionals - „escape the toxic narcissist”, „how to spot a narcissist”, „kill all narcissists”.

i really can’t comprehend how can you be a certified therapist and write shit like that?

so, fuelled by anger and frustration i’ve been thinking about creating a tiktok account fully dedicated to clarifying misinformation about cluster b personality disorders and „un-demonising” people with NPD, ASPD and BPD.

i’m aware that i’ll face a lot of hate, but i want to at least try to educate people

self-proclaimed „expert” in „narcissistic abuse”. a phd. person with psychological background. an authority. sharing one of the most hurtful, misleading, false and absolutely disgusting „information” about people with NPD.

and the best part? she has over 100k followers.

[anatidephobia]

If you really were an "empath", you wouldn't be so quick to assume I'm an abuser because of a mental disorder I was diagnosed with

[anatidephobia]

if the username „dr_anniephd” means that person is a real doctor, we’re fucked

uhh???

[anatidephobia]

"let's not be ableist!", "every mental illness should be respected" and "using slurs, especially ones that based on illnesses is wrong!" people after they call every abusive and evil person they met "narcissist", "psychopath" and "sociopath":😂👍

[anatidephobia]

how on earth do i show support and empathy to someone close to me AND not burn out and scream „what about me?”

Fun fact: When I say that narcissistic abuse isn't real, I mean the term. Because it stigmatizes NPD. I believe the abuse you went through is very much real. The emotional abuse you went through.

Me after building a positive reputation for myself and now I have to deal with ppl venting to me because they think I care when I’d rather pour acid into my ears than listen to them cry abt their trauma for the 12th time.
