Narcissism Expert Quotes

“When you have survived narcissistic abuse, the experience is a harrowing ordeal where your body, mind, and very essence felt violated. Some feel fragmented, forcibly separated from their own being, stripped of safety, security, and sanity. One day, survivors will reflect upon this harrowing pain as a pivotal moment that shaped their lives. The experience of trauma transforms individuals, equipping them with the honed skills of a detective and the agility of a ninja, acquired during their pursuit of understanding the abuse. With these remarkable abilities, they embark on a profound journey of healing.”

“Have you ever noticed that a narcissist could do terrible things to you and by morning it's as if nothing happened. This is so confusing to the victim experiencing these 180 behaviors. It's grooming you that are required to forgive and forget and never discuss it again. In contrast if you do something to offend them, they become hyper focused and never let you forget.”

“In narcissistic abuse recovery you will raise your awareness of bad behavior. You will see people’s actions through a lens of protection and no longer tolerate drama and lower vibrational energy vampires. Of course knowing red flags is important but tapping into and listening to how someone makes you feel, is the key to happiness. A drama free zone must be the protection you deploy. If someone causes you to run to others to try to understand their behaviors, this relationship is not healthy for you. We need no labels, we need no proof they are a narcissist, you need to listen to your gut, and you need courage to walk away. No drama equals peace. Drama equals confusion, sadness, and fear.”

“One day you may get angry at yourself. Angry for staying, angry for allowing bad behavior without a stronger fight, and angry for not knowing exactly what this was. Getting angry at yourself is a stage you must go through as you look for answers. Anger propels change, without anger victims stay or allow them back. Your goal should be to move through the anger and not stay in anger too long.”

“HEARING THE NARCISSIST IN YOUR HEAD The voices, the words, and the devaluing messages will haunt you. At first you may hear the good promises or things they said that were seemingly loving. You cling, wishing they were true again. These messages are holding you to them. Other times the internal messages become haunting words. 'You are no good', 'you can't do anything right', 'you are not good enough'. These messages internalize as truths until we heal and accept the truth. They were lying to keep you controlled.”

“As a child of a narcissistic mother I was never told I could do anything right. Disapproval was the “normal” of my life, I was never taught to believe in myself, nor was I guided to better choices. I was alone in figuring out life. Deep inside my self-esteem was uncertain and unsure, on the surface I looked confident because I was told to act that way.”

“An abusive relationship typically includes choices in partners who have histories of destructive and narcissistic behavior, and who commonly struggle with their own mental health or addictions, leaving you at risk for continuing a caregiver role. Abusive and trauma-bonded relationships are characterized by intense highs and lows, severe enmeshment, loss of identity, coercive control, and cycles of abuse and manipulation, followed by intermittent calm.”

“If you are more avoidantly attached, emotional intimacy is often seen as something you simultaneously want but fear. Many who are more avoidantly attached are drawn to the intensity and newness of the early stages of a relationship. Yet, they often start pumping the brakes when the relationship becomes more emotionally intimate.”
