Narcissistic Abuse Recovery

Way Past the Honeymoon Phase

It’s happened again. Your partner is giving you the silent treatment – this time because you were five minutes late for dinner.

You bite your tongue, resisting the urge to point out how often they arrive an hour late without explanation. You’ve learned the hard way that standing up for yourself only makes things worse.

So, you sit in silence, picking at your food, wondering how your once-dream relationship turned into this nightmare.

Everything is Teetering on the Edge

In the beginning, everything felt perfect – like you’d found a best friend, confidant, and protector.

Now, the slightest disagreement feels like stepping into a minefield. You second-guess your frustration, wondering if you’re overreacting.

You’ve become an expert at hiding how bad things have become, keeping the worst parts to yourself because you know your friends and family would urge you to leave.

Sometimes, you want to leave, too, but the idea feels impossible – like your entire world might crumble if you even think too hard about walking away.

It’s Not Just at Home

Every time you give your mother the slightest feedback, she sighs heavily and says, “I’m sorry I couldn’t be the perfect mother for you.”

Your boss promises to back you up when you’re alone, then questions your integrity in front of your coworkers.

Between the toxicity you experience from your romantic partner, your parents, and your boss, you feel like you’re a magnet for mistreatment. A small voice inside wonders: Is this all my fault?

You May be Experiencing Narcissistic Abuse

Narcissistic abuse is a form of abuse that is characterized by gaslighting, coercion, humiliation, and constant criticism.

This abuse can take many forms (emotional, physical, financial, etc.), and it has devastating effects on victims, making them question their reality and their worth.

Narcissistic abuse can cause victims to experience severe low self-esteem, isolation, depression and/or suicidal thoughts, and even PTSD.
