They need your confusion because... They need you to mirror THEM.

[@caroleminke6116]

Then their inner craziness is out there & it’s a projection pig pen

[@BaraSchmidt]

The rampant manipulation and exploitation of another human being who is there FOR you...finding that truth and acceptance of that reality will start your journey to Healthy! Just know not spending another day as their supply is an option. Stay Healthy!

So pleased!!

[@notthatvashti8127]

Thank you for differentiating between "regret" and "shame." I am usually taken aback when people say they have "no regrets." It reminds me of the candy bar commercial where the persons' tattoo artist misspells the word, and it says "no regerts." I'm sure the person regretted using that particular person to do their tattoo. Hmmmm.

I want to offer my perspective on the topic of adult children reconnecting with estranged relatives. I am 68. I have been invalidated and treated like an outcast by my mother and siblings my whole life. I blocked out most of my childhood trauma as an adult and have tried to forget the past and live peacefully with my relatives. But, the last 10 years have been hell on earth for me. No matter how hard I tried to fit in, I have been subjected to the narcissistic manipulation of my mother and siblings all over again. Their modus operandi has always been to label me difficult, isolate me from other family members by saying malicious gossip based on their own false narratives, and in doing so, silence me. That is where I find myself today. Totally isolated. My only support has been my adult children but because they interact with my biological family it is only a matter of time before they accept the lies. The lack of remorse within family bullying systems can only be addressed through distance. No one ever said reconnecting with malignant and dysfunctional people who feel they can get away with the level of character assassination I have been subjected to is required, necessary or desirable. Reopening old wounds in social family settings will be like opening Pandora's box.

Love u Ana. Proud of you. 18 months no contact for me and it's hard. But I have too. You understand. I wish you the best.

[@anacardinale5769]

@@mr.makedonija2627 Thank you! I wish you all the best... it's better to have a few reliable friends you can trust than to allow fake relatives to continually provoke conflict. All the best to you!

[@tbunnyshy1]

First off, thank you Dr. C. Secondly, the title of your channel stands out to me today. “Surviving” is the truth! I just got ambushed and starting explaining too much, aka giving the playbook. 😂🙉 When we fall for the antics, we can simply begin being a part of Team Heslthy again. No biggie. Press on and move forward. 🕊️❤️

[@SurvivingNarcissism]

I'm so glad you're on board!

What’s really insane is the real victims are so often seen as the problem…when we finally have had enough and speak up…. No one believes us. Tell me why so many good people are seen as the abuser and the narcissist skips off pretending like they weren’t an actual idiot the entire time.

[@lindamarcola1324]

Do you think if your narc husband told you about an affair 2 yrs ago, he wanted you to divorce him? He acted like he collasped when I filed for a divorce. I ask him what did he think I would do and he said I knew you would be mad but. You know, forgive me and we would be ok.

[@lindamarcola1324]

He was 77

[@lindamarcola1324]

We were married 30 years.
