Understanding Narcissistic Abuse: What It Is and How To Recover?

Narcissistic abuse is a form of emotional and psychological abuse that is perpetrated by someone with narcissistic personality disorder or traits. It can take many forms, including gaslighting, manipulation, emotional neglect, belittling, and exploitation.

The following are some common signs of narcissistic abuse:

A constant need for attention and admiration

Belittling, demeaning, or insulting language or behavior

An inability to acknowledge or apologize for mistakes

A lack of empathy for others

Manipulation and gaslighting

Control and domination over their partner

Emotional neglect or abandonment

Blaming their partner for everything that goes wrong in the relationship

Isolation from family and friends

Threats or violence.

Recovering from narcissistic abuse can be a long and difficult process, but it is possible. The following are some strategies that may help:

Seek Therapy: Therapy can provide a safe space to process your experiences and emotions, and can help you develop coping mechanisms for dealing with triggers and negative thoughts.

Build a Support System: Surround yourself with friends and family who are supportive and understanding, and who can provide emotional support when you need it.

Practice Self-Care: Take care of yourself physically and emotionally. This can include exercise, healthy eating, getting enough sleep, and engaging in activities that bring you joy.

Set Boundaries: Establish clear boundaries with the person who has abused you, and stick to them. This can include limiting or cutting off contact, and refusing to engage in behaviors that are harmful to you.

Challenge Negative Self-Talk: Work to identify and challenge negative beliefs and thoughts about yourself that were reinforced by the abuse.

Take Legal Action If Necessary: If you have experienced physical or sexual abuse, or if your partner has engaged in illegal activities, consider taking legal action.

Recovering from narcissistic abuse can be a difficult and overwhelming process. It is important to seek professional help to heal from the trauma of being in an abusive relationship. Therapy for narcissistic trauma, emotional abuse victims, and survivors of domestic violence are all available options for those seeking help. Professional counselors and therapists can provide support, guidance, and tools to help individuals manage their emotions, cope with the effects of the abuse, and develop healthy coping strategies. With the right kind of therapy, survivors can begin to heal from their traumatic experiences and move forward with their lives.

Remember, recovery is a process, and it can take time. Be patient with yourself and seek support when you need it.

NPD Self Study Plans

Hi guys!  Here are the poll results:

First and foremost, the block tags. I will be using these tags.

NaioNPD

NPDselfstudy

NPD

narcissism

narcissisticpersonalitydisorder

I will be using all of them but that top one’s for people who want to block only this self study and not necessarily everything NPD tumblr has to offer.

On to pre-content content.

I’ve got some content written already, but I’m editing it to make sure it’s readable by people other than me, so I should have something up on this within a few weeks. I am otherwise a pretty busy person at this point in my life. And since good science is documented science (okay, so it’s not exactly a ‘science’, but you get my point?), I would be doing this for myself regardless.  But I will be welcoming Asks and Comments and such!  I have a few reasons!

1. Having people I’m telling a story to might help me keep it straight. Are you ever kind of ashamed of an aspect of your personality or habits and find yourself not always remembering actions related to that aspect as clearly, maybe because of that shame? Or maybe you try to talk yourself out of more accurate, and more painful, memories about an action you took in favor of a more gracious version? That’s all well and good as a coping mechanism but in this case I’m not looking for outs. Having reader(s), even if I can’t tell if they’re even reading, might help me curtail some of that cope, in hopes of reliability.

2. Self-study and self-evaluation have their shortcomings! I can get stuck in my own head sometimes! If something I’ve written doesn’t make a ton of sense to you and you feel inspired to point it out, you might be helping me better analyze it by doing so.  And I like and want that!  But you are not obligated. You’re welcomed. They’re different!

3.  NPD is a disorder, so like other disorders, it’s stigmatized.  If I am open about other disorders that make up or potentially make up part of my experience on this lil blue marble, why not this one? And if I legitimately don’t believe disorders make people “bad” or “evil” or even that there ARE “bad people” or that there IS “evil” to be had, I don’t believe it of NPD either. Wisely or not, I’m into exploring this in the open, which, wisely or not, means on the internet where nothing you ever publish can be considered erasable, no matter how hard you may later try. The internet is forever~~~~  So! Ask and/or Comment anytime. Anon Asks are ALWAYS on. Also, BLOCK at any time. And feel free to remind me if I’ve been careless and forgot to tag or drop a Read More or whatever. I will try not to be careless, but mistakes happen. Last thing!  Future installments won’t be pinned like this one is.  But, they will be tagged. ;)

The Wolf In Sheeps Clothing

Ah yes, here we are again. Left to wonder why I met him. Just when I had given up hope, there he was. The connection, intense...like nothing Ive experienced before. Apprehensive at first, but willing to take the chance. Distance being the only obstacle...or so I had thought. Talking for a few weeks and then seemingly bumping into each other again shortly after. The pursuit, he just had to have me. So casual, non-chalant..almost too good to be true....and it was just as I had called it. He was too perfect, far too perfect until he wasnt. Drawn to him, for he is so broken inside and I just wanted to be that light in his life that he so desparately needed and craved. But just as before...being drawn to broken people, even I know that you cant help or fix those that see nothing wrong with their behavior. I tried to be that one that wouldnt turn my back on him no matter how difficult things got. A few months in and we had finally met face to face, our energies combined. Drawn to him like a fucking drug, not knowing what I was feeling. Intoxicating, toxic, magnetic forces between us. Was this my TWIN FLAME? He made me feel emotions I havent felt in so long. A connection even more intense being around one another like Ive never felt before. It felt right..it felt like home. Consistently talking every day for the past six months. I thought this was the one, but the mask eventually started to slip and he became who he was the whole time. His true colors now showing. Walking on eggshells to try not to provoke the sleeping beast inside him. Fighting his own demons, I tried my hardest to help him...but he wouldnt confide in me, wouldnt open up to me about anything...other than what he voluntarily chose to share with me. I eventually realized that the Idealization Phase was over and he was now bored with me. Using every excuse to not see me, eventhough he claimed he missed me. His actions not matching his words. Turning every disagreement he had started, on me and playing the victim. I was now being Devalued...my feelings changed, he changed...this wasnt who I fell for. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt...but eventually the cycle repeated and I couldnt take it anymore. It was never going to go any further than where it was. Texts got later and later, replies got later and later and then one day...it all stopped. Like I was nothing...I meant nothing. Several disagreements and one final phone call to part ways as friends...yet still telling me that I was and still am important to him. Communication ceased; DISCARDED. I should have expected this. He is numb, he is broken, he is crushed and he is hurting. He doesnt know how to handle his emotions...he cant feel and he cant love. But I did....I said I wouldnt get attached but I did, I fucking did. Now, Im trauma bonded to someone who came into my life and disturbed my soul, my peace and my solitude. And he, just as I had expected, doesnt even care. How could he? Why would he care? So here we go again, Im left to pick up the pieces because I fell for someone who was never going to catch me...since his intentions were pure evil from the beginning. He knew what he was doing the whole time, but you see...the joke is on him now. I dont need him. I never did. I dont know why certain people cross our paths in life...I really dont. But next time, Ill be ready. Next time I will not be giving ANYONE the benefit of the doubt. I have seen the evil in this mans eyes and it was dark; absolutely terrifying. He ALMOST had me, but I was always one step ahead of him...he just didnt know it; WOLF.
