How Your Body Tells You You're Dealing with a Narcissist

[@hulawahine1954]

I've gone no contact 48 days, married 36 years. I've experienced severe anxiety, depression, fatigue, hair loss, and acid reflux. My symptoms have improved by 90%. I used to drink 2-3 glasses of wine every night to calm my nerves, to tolerate the "ASS HOLE." I haven’t had a drink in 35 days. This man is spot-on.

[@sandeep_k55]

Acid reflux spot on

[@BedfordFalls7]

Good for you hulaw- I've been with mine married 22 years. I finally after seeing this man's videos and some others, realized my verbal abuse I'd get a lot of was also tied in with his lies, and trying to make my life a living hell. I finally know what he is and saw an attorney. I am saving money to get out soon. I got love bombed and he got engaged to me in 6 months after meeting. Married me to watch his son and take care of the house. He never wanted me for any other reason. Never even had a husband wife relationship. Separate bedrooms since day one! I just never knew. He has anger issues and bad outbursts of anger. Like Danish said We are not fools (though I feel like one) because we never knew what they were).

The main thing I felt after being with my narcissist partner for a few hours or more was exhaustion. I normally have plenty of energy to accomplish daily tasks and more, but after spending time with him I had no energy left, I just wanted to rest. I honestly imagined that it would be how someone felt after being bitten by a vampire.

[@harobedasenath]

Even after running from the 44 yr marriage and the spinal diseases necessitating a 12 hr operation- 24 years on Dr prescribed opiates- anxiety out of control- divorce finalized on 9/12/19- I literally was Vampirized for 6 months- I thought I had long COVID but it was acute anemia! My Dr threw me in the ICU with my hemoglobin at 2.9- they wrote DNR on the screen facing my bed- I asked why- the Dr said there isn’t enough blood to pump if I didn’t get transfusions immediately. I saw no blood but I couldn’t walk five feet- the endoscopy showed 3 ulcers! Jesus Christ had freed me from the opiates- freed me from the unholy yoking and had sustained me through the worst physical trial of my life! All Glory to the most high. Narcs are demonic agents sent to kill the sheep. They can kill at a distance- never let restraining orders lapse and stay in His Word! As I was wheeled into the ICU- The nurse said - “Oh- I see you’ve had a vampire in your life!” The ex prided himself with his astrology, numerology, Tarot and was a sophisticated manipulator and intimidator and liar. He sucked the wealth of 3 generations and was disinherited by his parents. He would not repent and come to Jesus Christ. He couldn’t read the Bible- he became agitated and violent- sure signs of indwelling demons. Yeshua Jesus Christ opened my eyes and burned away the delusive hypnotic trance state I was in. He threatened my legal reps, the court’s agents- and continues to slander me everywhere! My grown children tremble with the memories of his abuse. Danish speaks the truth about these agents from the pit. Jesus is the ONLY WAY, the Truth and the ONLY Salvation you need! John 14:15 “If you Love ME keep MY commandments.” HalleluYah-

[@chamuuemura5314]

As Jesus said on the cross, “forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do.” Narcissists know what they’re trying to do but they have no understanding of the unquenchable pain that drives them to do what they do. Defeat them with love, even if that love is via long distance, no contact, self-preservation policy. Through years of therapy from abuse at the hands of my narcissistic brother, I had a series of revelations of trauma he endured that may’ve turned him narcissist. His own sense of self-preservation won’t allow him to acknowledge he was ever wounded or that he’s not a victim now but an aggressor, and his life is physically rich but spiritually poor. As adults, every time he’d visit I’d break out in a rash or have major heart palpitations. Eventually that led to Shingles and other maladies. Going no contact saved my life. I pray for him, but his presence literally makes me deathly sick.

[@Nina801]

I experienced extreme migraines and vomiting while with the narc. Once I was out, I never had those symptoms again!! 🙏🏽💙

[@norcal1009]

I experienced a dry cough following narcissistic abuse. It lasted for two months without any other reason, such as the flu or smoking, and I even got examined for asthma. I was not sick from any of those concerns, and the cough was only due to traumatic stress. Later, the cough was validated by a psychiatric nurse who told me the name, but I didn't write it down. That was only a short-term symptom. Unfortunately, there are long-term symptoms following narcissistic abuse as well. 💞🎗

I had almost all the symptoms mentioned when I was with my narcissistic mother. She told me I was imaginig some of them and the others were due to my own fault. My father was with her for 50 years before he died of a volvulus in his intestines. It's only after I listened to this video that I realised she caused his death. Although I suspected his long term vomiting, stomach pains and constipation were linked to being stress caused by the controlling witch who was my mother. We both suffered untold misery in that household. I can write a book on the daily battles. My dad and I were manipulated so cleverly by mum to impede our success. We were trapped though he was an enabler as well. It's very painful. I feel for my dad though he was an enabler. My sister was worse than my mother. She hated dad and me so much.

Agree. So critical to listen to your intuition. When my sister stopped by for a short visit, every interaction felt so inauthentic. When trying to get to sleep that night I couldn’t breathe, felt anxiety, and my heart felt like it was in extreme emotional pain. A Very deep pain. I couldn’t sleep at all that night. This was after cleaning the house for days in preparation for her visit, and also taking her and her son out to dinner, but then the next morning, I heard her say disparaging things about me on the phone, then as soon as she saw me, said she’ll call them right back. I could also feel false judgment coming from her, as if to put me in a very inferior box. They left that morning, since they were on a cross country trip. Felt extremely sick after her visit, and a deep depression set in for one day only. It reminded me of how I felt when I lived at home with my family decades ago. But the interesting thing is my body was telling me all that Before I heard her talking about me the next morning. It knew well before I did. She was usually destructive, but I used to think she was neutral when we were growing up. I didn’t want to see her as she really acted. My other sister vented her political anger on the phone for about an hour with me and after getting off the phone, I immediately had a three day, horrible migraine headache, with nausea.

He knows what the victims go through and He is the best healer as only God knows how to cast the demons out. There are demonic forces working behind narcissistic people. And that’s what makes it a spiritual matter. Prayer is the biggest weapon against all trials. God bless you all including the narcissists because Jesus says to love our enemies when they hate us so much and want to destroy us so bad😅

[@lexbest]

Yes, literally all the symptoms you named happened right after we were married. I also went into a serious depression. After being with my husband for about 12 years I was diagnosed with cancer. I was only 34 and no one in my family had cancer. Then last year I was diagnosed with Crohn's. When I told him he said he couldn't accept my diagnosis. It was too painful for him. That's when I ended the relationship. Unfortunately I was always sick growing up with many of the symptoms you mentioned and that is because both of my parents were narcissists and so is my sister. So when my symptoms acted up after I got married I didn't think anything of it. My parents had always said I was very sickly and weak.

[@rebeccamay6420]

The history of "always" being sickly and weak was due to the mental poison they kept feeding you. I commend you for recognizing the connection between the abuse and the symptoms. 😊

[@amberlight558]

So true. It’s a fact that our emotions/energy effects our physical bodies. It’s all connected. Physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I’ve been saying this for years, and people don’t always believe this. I’m very grateful you are sharing this important information. Thank you.

[@Gypsy-lq1xh]

I had MANY intuitive DREAMS bout him being with prostitutes.....and i IGNORED them !!!! UNTIL i couldn't ignore it anymore & did some investigating myself & found the PROOF ! I had SO MUCH anxiety & depression throughout my relationship with him.....I finally left & now have my sanity back !!!!!!!!! Thank you for all your SPOT ON videos !!!!! _/\_

[@LEA.ANNE13]

While UNknowingly being "friends" w/a narc, in addition to experiencing most symptoms Danish mentioned, I also developed SHINGLES. First time EVER @ age (52). 😰

[@LuckyLouise-zp4kv]

I got shingles at 16 after narc trauma from sister and mother. I lived in the country and had no way out.

[@rebeccamay6420]

Stress Response "Shingles" happened here too. ❤️‍🩹 My body went into full alarm, and I hadn't recognized the connection until the sweeping tingling sensation raced across my scalp ^In Mid Trigger^ just last week!

[@nessauk2786]

I got shingles twice this year after abuse.Even Richard Grannon had it a few years back after dealing with these types.

[@tamaragaines562]

I've had a couple of body experiences! I had been pretty much friends with benefits for the first two years I've known the narc, and although I've noticed some strange behaviors during those times. It wasn't so extreme to the point of leaving him as a friend I just didn't understand those behaviors. But once we decided to make it official after a whole two years of being just friends. I remember one day we were having a conversation and this eery uneasy gut feeling that I couldn't explain came over me, and it dawned on me that feeling was a very familiar feeling! And at that moment I remember having that same feeling I've had years ago dealing with a crazy psychotic abusive ex boyfriend that had to cut off! But I was confused because I associated that feeling with danger and my ex narc had never imposed a threat to me! So although I brushed it off, I payed attention to it! My thing was I've been around this man for two years and I never had this feeling before, why now? Well now that I understand narcissism! The mask was on for two years but once the mask came off, the real him was reviled! So cautiously I brushed it off because I'm like, I've been around this man for two years and we've been okay and I've never felt threatened by him! But subconsciously my body and my gut felt a different energy about him! That was my gut speaking to me letting me know that this person is danger! So that taught me a very valuable lesson! Sometimes we get so caught up by familiarity and ignore warning signs because we think we know someone! If your cautious mind and subconscious mind is not on the same page! Pay attention! Or I'll say this! If you're around someone that's truly genuine and have your best interest at heart! That second brain won't be nowhere to be found! Because there's nothing to protect!

[@tamaragaines562]

I will also add that as far as what I've experienced physically, as a child I would frequently get athletes feet but it would always get cured fairly quickly with medications like within a weeks time! But from the age of like 12 years old I never suffered from them again! I'm 42 years old now but I left my ex narc when I was 40! After I left him that's when I discovered what I was dealing with! Long story short, I ended up with a case of athletes feet again in the worst way! It had got so bad no medication worked and my whole Big toenail eventually came off! I was devastated, because I have pretty feet and love to get pedicures! And I've seen people who's experienced going through that and usually the toenail will never be the same it grows back with a fungus! I had to go to my doctor and this time I was prescribed oral medication! So for a whole year I could never wear open toed shoes! I wore tennis shoes through a whole summer and that's not like me! It made me self cautious about showing my feet which I never had a problem with before! From the grace of God my toenail grew back healthy after a year! Which normally doesn't happen after losing any toenails from a fungus! This may not seem that extreme to others who have suffered far worse from narcissistic abuse! But the over all point I'm trying to make is that. The body has never experienced a trauma like this before so it took a major hit dealing with these creatures! The brain has been corrupted, our bodies are so damaged from having the life sucked out of us which made us feel weak, drained, and lack of energy! Which made us more susceptible for chronic illnesses, anxiety, physical issues! So realistically the narcissist didn't put a spell on us to cause these issues😅 I know that's what some of yall are thinking! It's the things that they put us through that the mind or body has never experienced before or wasn't prepared for in order to fix the problem! So if the mind and the body is off balance, it makes it harder to protect us against chronic illnesses, or physical issues, or even mental issues! But like I said of course from the grace of God my toenail grew back healthy, but outside of the obvious, I also believe me healing and getting my mind back on track and back to reality! My body was able to heal properly! So yes most people who fell victim of athletes feet toenail grew back as a fungus that's usually what happens! But like I said earlier I stopped getting athletes feet at the age of like 12! After dealing with the narcissist I developed athletes feet in the worse way ever! Why? Because my body wasn't functioning properly! After healing and getting clarity my body healed itself! Of course I wondered why others that this happened to toenails never healed like mine did? Now I know with those individuals it was just a case of not taking care of themselves, and also its a known fact that it would always grow back as a fungus! So I guess you could say in my case what happened to me was narcissist induced, not because I wasn't taking care of myself or had health issues! That explains why my feet healed properly! Because that never would've happened had my body was functioning correctly and not thrown off track due to engaging with a narcissist! Think about it! So many people in the comments are saying how after leaving the Narcissist they got better! If something was really wrong, whether a person left you or not the problem will still be there! Real health issues don't operate like that! So for my toes to heal after a major fungus which don't happen to many, was a result in my body properly functioning removing the problem that was causing the malfunction

[@ipshitabanerjee5639]

I'm going through this situation...he slang on me everytime and manipulate me like anything....after through out all or his anger suddenly he used to say sorry everytime ..I also don't know how to move on from this situasn...sometime I think to council my self ...wherever he use to cry and apologize I also turned into very emotional on him...but I know that this rlsn will not stay for long ..bcz there is no respect from his side...and sometime I also react like him ..can't control my pesions top...but this video is very helpful for me

[@RIIZE.]

as a kid I always used to freeze around certain family members when I was around them. and I think because of all the abuse I suffered (mainly sa) I think this is why I have selective mutism. I also used to get constant uti’s and it always used to hurt down there as a kid, it still does too, it still hurts to this day. I’m 17 and I cannot leave yet, I’m hoping this will all stop once I leave because no matter how many meds I try or whatever I do, it won’t go away and I hate it. it hurts so bad.

my reactions to a meeting with my narc ex are nervosity, tightness in the chest,a sinking stomach feeling & higher pulse...when he stands next to me or fixes me with the cold gaze ,I get brain fog..horrible..this is why I have been on the strictest NO CONTACT for decades..& if I absolutely have to endure a face to face I prepare days before, with notes, affirmations & I set the alarm & always answer all my alarm calls, especially if he's mid sentence, that breaks the spell & leaves him in disarray😂🤣

Anxiety and I call it salad mix when they try to confuse your words when you talk.

[@anniebo8535]

Was with him for several years. My eyes use to twitch daily. Had it checked out by an Ophthalmologist and was told it was stress related. Not even glasses were required. Then I figure.

[@lightning5420]

Oh yes, I felt all these things. Also, looking into his eyes was like looking at a soulless monster, then triggering my "fight or flight" I blamed myself, feeling guilty for having suspicious thoughts and feelings towards him. And, as you said, they're so charismatic...way too charismatic. I'd tell anyone who feels these things, don't think, don't try to rationalize. Get away, get out

[@AsifSyed123]

Forgetfulness, depression, anxiety, lack of good sleep, hard time achieving success and much much more things that happen when one comes in regular contact with or hangs around or lives with a narcissist or narcissists.

[@ar7ea]

I'm crying after listening to this. The realization that the causes of the symptoms I had all over my body. The more I experienced it, the more I suppressed it and my body became numb. Lately, after learning that I'm living with one and have lived with one, they all make sense. I am healing myself, now. This understanding cannot undo how I'm feeling towards them. Ever since I didn't put my energy onto them I felt lighter. They started to be nice to me. But, no. I'm too tired to play along with their games. I missed out a lot of things for myself.

[@henryblackfish4339]

I experienced a spike in blood pressure every time I went to this one particular doctor. Later after I accidentally caused him a narcissistic injury he got really grotesque with me and I believe intentionally put my life in danger. Needless to say, I fired him and found a new doctor, and my previous body reactions have all but disappeared.

[@sunithamaharaj9927]

Get OUT first and Then tell him you are leaving. This is the dangerous time frame for women to be killed.

This traumatic expérience make me strong today. I am in a healing process and this led me to an awakening of consciousness. God bless you . and now in fact I detect all the toxic manipulative people, sociopaths, bipolar liars, narcissistic perverts who are in truth the DEVIL in all these forms. I shine my heart again and filled with love and I spread it to whom it may concern. Thank you, you are my savior, a messenger from God in human form and for that I am grateful to you for LIFE. We live in a society where narcissistic perversion is king but people still have difficulty understanding this so on my side I take over and broadcast your videos in France in order to prevent and help as many good people as possible. not to fall into this trap of the Devil and to escape from it.

I agree with you. We must reconnect with our body and intuition. We must not ignore the sensations which are coming from our body.

I had experienced exactly all of the symptoms but it all started after the break with narssisist, with that person i had become really lean and sick, it feels like something is sucking the life out of me every day .

I went through having a lot of fear and anxiety as a teenager to a point where i was put on medication, but it was too much for me. It relaxed me so much that I was unable to perform my daily routine. So i stopped taking it. I even thought about leaving my home to live with a different family as a teenager in high school but decided not to.

My nervous system knows … it’s been 10 years since multiple unrelated symptoms began to appear…I had been being overtly threatened and bullied by a co-worker for a period of 8 years. Then a person shows up in my personal life who was not honest or authentic. Migraines and even a small aneurysm! My body said Hell No.

This is absolutely spot on as always Danish!!! I was in a relationship with this narc for about one year . I've never had any type of skin problems / health problems in my life like what i went through DURING The year i spent with him. Unexplainable skin rash on my arms, intense stomach/womb pains and a hellish migrane are just a few of the things I've experienced. 3 months no contact and NONE of these symptoms are present. It's truly amazing how the body knows ....

How very apt..I always developed chronic issues. Thanks for this episode . Narcs predatory nature always sends silent warning bells.. I would still regard my family as my protecter, and refused to think they mean harm... Till, over years, over multiple chronic situations, including constipation, I had to recognise the reality and accept it. My gut feeling (without knowing about narcs) told me to get far away..and I did, but also felt guilty from trying to get away . Dear Danish, thanks! Videos like this allows me to feel more validated and let me have my own life independent of a Narcissistic family...who treats me as a yoyo.. They want to draw me close, then push me away, once I am far away, they want to draw me in.. It's like a cruel cat/mouse game .n

11 years with an overt narcissist and 8 years with a covert narcissist. I developed an eating disorder when a teen from the trauma I faced as a child. I’ve relapsed numerous times, this current relapse has been the worst. I also have adhd, ocd, ptsd, anxiety, depression and now anorexia nervosa/restrictive eating . This last long term relationship was by far the most insidious and he constantly used my mental health against me and dismissed when I required medical care because this current episode has now affected my heart, unable to gain weight, low vitamin D, potassium, and iron.

[@markh4926]

I am not promiscuous! In my recovery group I was dealing with a girl who hated me, then another one who confused the hell out of me. I say they are narcs. Then at a recovery meeting with 30 people there this young lady decided to sit next to me, I made her laugh. Three people spoke up and accused me of being a predator. I tried to stay with the meetings but the insult was large and dangerous, you know, gossip. After three months I stopped going because I had the most adverse nervous reactions when I was there at meetings, and it affected my body, appetite loss, lots of pain, no energy to pursue my hobby, brain fog, there are other things. All of these problems persist after four months, plus I have chronic pancreatitis which gets inflamed. Pain all over so I finally decided those people in my AA groups were dangerous for me and I left for good and found some people who support me, and they laugh.

[@thetandfpodcast]

Been there, man. I experienced this at a yoga studio. This girl checked all the boxes of a narcissist. I just knew something was off with her, and I tried to avoid her. I ended up falling into all her traps. She ended up recording me in secret- how she achieved this, I’ll never know. But when she started repeating my dialogue back to me- things I had said in private conversations- my suspicions were affirmed. It was so bad I had to move away. Six months later, I’m still recovering from it.

Hi sweatheart, what i felt: extreme anxiety, fear of dying ( stalking and being harassed regularly and being cancelled) You are right, every cell in my body sreamed: RUN. I had to be the one who is crazy and a lot of people believed this because i reacted in anger, this was staged. I did not know what was going on and suddenly i found myself in Hell. I was the demon, the sick one, the crazy one. I am an empath. I got so sick that i did not eat, sleep and drink enough. Graves disease came but now ten years later i am healthy. Please if you are in a similar situation. I was scared to talk, please talk with someone. But do not expect you are going to be believed. You need to find rest and to make sure you get evidence. In my case i feared for my life so i was to scared do this. Do not let fear guide you. Even if you are in danger. You need get rest and you have to note everything. Thanks to people like this man i was able to survive. If you are in grave danger, plan your exit silently. Make sure you are going to a save place. Ten years ...still going on...
