Exactly! Survivors of narcissistic abuse understand how insidious the abuse is. My ex narc is still stalking me 8 years after we broke up…no matter what I do he manages to contact me, and the only way I can be safe is to never respond, and never be alone in public.

After years of not hearing from him, I got a call from an ex. He said he acknowledged he had been a lousy husband and father, praised my handling of raising our son on my own, and apologized for not having been there for my son and me. I had a feeling I knew what he was up to so I just listened and answered any questions with as little information as possible. Not long after, I read on his FB that he had broken up with his girlfriend and was moving in with a friend. Yeah, I dodged a bullet with that phone call.

You just described my "mother". She was a huge control freak!!!!! Covertly, she made sure I couldn't get financially well off on my own so I was stuck serving her. Her flying monkeys spied on me, sabotaged my employment and even my personal life. She was the "queen" of her home and thought she owned everything in it. When my expensive things disappeared, she lied and blamed the situation on a burglary that did not happen. She had the qualities of a typical politician; she lied, cheated and stole at every chance. Of course, nothing happened to her and she was never brought to justice.

I think that's a great succinct way of covering a lot of bases with that comment. It would probably piss them off if they heard you or me saying that. I love how some control freaks try to flip the script and make it as if we are the ones violating their boundaries out of nowhere... All the sudden they're magically offended by something they weren't before even though you known them for over 10 years.. just looking for more narcissistic fuel to "WIN" is all those cheap shot / setup artists ARE about! (Trying to make themselves the "victims" in a final conflict that never happened that they decided to fabricate... Trying to play hero... They can play "hero" all by themselves because I'm no longer around to be kicked by those types)

I received a pittance in child support..waited 4 months for the first payment and was never reimbursed..we rode bikes and collected aluminum cans..we went to the library and read books..checked out movies and videos..played games..I told the boys we were a team and they had to help while I worked. It was an education for me and them ...I had to learn to be handyman..plumber.. .mechanic..electrician and nurse..my kids are grown and married..they know how to survive and not to expect someone to take care of them ..they are self-sufficient and able to make it on their own.. .....I spent 10 years raising my children before remarrying...and I have never spent one second regretting it..

That's exactly what he did to me....called my family/friends/people at church....turned our teenage children against me....told them huge lies behind my back, and he was doing a smear campaign for most of our 20 year relationship. You are exactly right about our children....and 22 years after I divorced him, my Adult Children still behave abusive to me with their Dad. For most of the past 22 years, I've done all kinds of kind, caring things for my daughter/her family....and she will run to her Dad and lie about me. She infact, is very Covert like her Dad is, and she returns Evil for all the good I do for her. She is 36 years old and she recently made up a new Rule for me: The Mother has to do what the kids tell her to do. I divorced her dad and remarried 12 years later to a very kind caring, considerate man. They are furious over that. We've been married 12 years, and my Daughter/Son and Ex...try to get between me and my husband. We bought a house and property on a mountain 800 miles from them. They are furious and don't want us to own this place. They've done every thing in the book to convince us, it's a bad idea. i tell her we love it here....and she gets so angry if I love anyone or anything that is not about her. My Son does Overt abuse....he's like a shark, you can see his fins, and he's destructive as can be....to a point where he will get so angry he destroys his own property also. 42 years of the Narc's abuse....NOW, I'M DONE. I don't know or care if I see my adult kids again. They are too much like their Narc Dad. Loving them is setting myself up for abuse....it only enables them.

I am a survivor of 6 years of narsistic abuse. It was not until I told my ex I no longer love him or want to be with him that he made his friends see me as the badguy before nearly beating me to death. If u know in ure heart u don't want to be with them make sure u leave before confronting them. I was on the road with my bags and battle wounds could not walk or do much for 3 weeks. Please if u are dealing with a narsisist get out of there. I watch the man who claimed he loved me try to kill me with a crowbar and hammer. I disconnected myself from him and everyone he knows traumatized by what he did to me and my life I have no friends damn near lost my whole family I had to nurse myself all alone 😢 and I'm a good person. To go through that kind of abuse and live through it shows u how strong u truly are and if I can survive it so can u. I'm learning to be happy again and to love myself.

Great advice and wish I had known this stuff years ago. Now I have lost connection with my adult children as a result of the trauma of being abused by my ex over too many years. I have struggled with feeling a failure and have to work hard to keep from giving up. He said I would never win and no one would believe me over him. He silenced me and I was afraid to open up and tell my kids about the abuse. I felt he would tell them I was sick and deluded. He threatened to have me sectioned and it was deeply scary as he is in the medical world and had such power. I still keep silent out of fear. It’s a rotten way to live but I am safe now but still in pain over my kids and how they have suffered over the years too. Please listen to your instincts and if you feel someone is not giving you truth let them go. It’s not worth the pain.

Fortunately we have two houses in different states I’m in one and she is in the other. I put an order of protection against her here where I am staying. This seems to have slowed her garbage down. We have one son together and he is 20 and in Florida at college. I stuck this marriage out until my son left the house. She gets worse with age and blame everything on me. So freeing being away from this mentally Ill person.

I wish I had the advice of Kim or someone like Kim way back 35 years ago when I was going through this situation. God bless you that you know now it is not anything you did to cause this situation. There is no guilt for any reactions that you were coerced into. - Now, for a long time , I am dealing with my ptsd of being a victim. I raised my children they are grown with families of their own. I am okay and it is a great thing just to be okay. I am blessed with loving families from my children. They understand now what happens to the family when they were children. Children are also victims of a narcissist parent.

I have been depressed, sad, sorrowful and whatever through different relationships I have been through. But the trauma bond and breakup and such is the worst agonizing emotional pain I have been through. Total and all encompassing sadness that is like a heavy blanket that was thrown over my entire daily experience day in and day out. It is simply some serious sick f'ing shite.

I’m so grateful to have left the his nightmare situation. I was fortunate enough to not have had children with him. Make no mistake tho, I was completely wrecked after this experience: manipulated, exhausted, hurt, abused etc … One fine day, (after a reprehensible event), I calmly got up & exited/fled. I had hit the wall. What scares me (in hindsight) is I could have easily stayed (b/c I did not understand narcissism and many times believed he was doing his best). I was wildly mistaken. In that moment (when exiting) I did not believe he would ever change. That was the catalyst that propelled me out of there. It was the best decision of my life. I hope others find what they need to make their own best choice/s for themselves💙

He told my mother " I wouldn't make it without him". Honestly, she acted like she didnt even care " he said it " even though I struggled and continue too. I wish I had created an " exit plan" because he did a 360 when we were divorcing.

He's still unreasonable and hateful with me and I can't have my belongings or my animals. Now I'm looking at every man as a narcissist and I'm even afraid to be on my front porch alone. Anxiety and PTSD have a good grip on me. He doesn't care. Life goes on like normal for him. Nothing changes at all for him while he turned my world inside out.

It’s as if you were commenting about my previous experience (with former spouse), and all I’m here to say is, “All things work out together for good to those who love the Lord.” I know?! I used to think that Scriptures like the one previously quoted, and the other cool things about putting our faith in God was only for other people, but it ISN’T! Faith in God is for everyone who’s prayed for the faith in Jesus Christ, and from there, you’ll experience “healing” through God, since, “Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one can go to the Father, but through me.” (Scripture paraphrased) Salvation happens instantaneously, and from there our faith grows, our bond with God is a wonderful process from beginning to end as somewhere along the journey we’re healed from the I’ll effects of our sins, and or the sins of another’s that’ve impacted us, and our lives, but it’s true… ‘All things work out together for good for those who love the Lord Jesus Christ.”❤ Peace be with you! 🙏🏻☦️🕊

He's a narc because he was spoiled, not because he was abused, which is something I am still finding difficult to understand. I think if I had been spoiled, had what I wanted as well as what I needed (which I didn't get from either parent), I would have turned out a lot better than he did. I wouldn't have these mental health problems either. Narc ex just compounded what my parents did. I will be happy to be alone my whole life if I can just avoid being abused ever again.

My break-up with my ex was actually really peaceful considering I was expecting the worst. Even though it was peaceful, I watched him go through a really bizarre meltdown at the end. There were some things he'd said to me months earlier and insisted at the time that he wasn't joking. All of the sudden he was apologizing for what he said and saying he was only kidding. I'd never even brought it up as an issue since I'd been planning my escape for two years by that point. He said he'd help me move out but on moving day he sat there being all surly. When I said something about it he insisted I never told him what date I was moving out even though I mentioned it several times. He swore up and down that he'd never date anyone again (I didn't care) but he married someone else not even a year later (we were together 15 years and never married). I'm glad we didn't have children together.

Great content. Thanks for providing more clarity about what I experienced for years. When my ex-wife (a Covert Narcissist) left me in 2018, she exited by way of a very brutal smear campaign. Left me isolated and alone. It has taken 5 years to get my head to clear up after doing some serious recovering and healing work on my part. It’s still baffling that I got so entangled with a two tornadoes for 32 years (her & her toxic narcissistic mother). Her smear campaign did some serious damage to all of my relationships; I had to grieve the loss of all of my friendships that turned out to be fake; apparently, all of the flying monkeys took her side. This was a difficult journey to heal from; she tried to wipe me out financially in every way. She made sure our 3 adult children supported her. I have not seen them for 5 years. It turns out that she started grooming them when they were young to see me as a father who did not love or care for them. Sucks! I did my best to take care of them. They saw her in action during their childhood years, yet they see me as the pariah. I found out that she would do counter-parenting every time I parented our children properly. Made life difficult for them, since I tried to guide them and teach them properly. She encouraged them to do things that did not make sense, such as drinking alcohol underage (she let them drink when I was not around), she encouraged them to engaging in underage sexual behavior, and other things. This left me being the heavy weight all the time, since I sought to correct their misbehavior. She seemed not to care about the damage she caused to each child. Yet, they seem to support her and see her as a “good” mother. *******

You are so spot on. My twin brother was a N.He would come into my house while I was at work and take things. He had to be always in control of me.

What's weird is narcissists are always trying to hold on to their "relationships". Nobody in this thread has said "the narcissist put me out or left". Not suggesting anyone stay in a warped situation in order to find out; but narcissism sounds like a symptom of child hood trauma--maybe abandonment

I was raised by two narcs...I grew up so helpless and looked for somebody to save me from them but no one showed up...Even my father didn't protect me from them...I suspect my grandmother was also a narc....

This video is excellent. I have to thank you. I listened a year ago, but now I even got some more out of it. THE TIMING and not just being TOLD IN PERSON is stablizing my thoughts FOR ME, because a viedo, your video doesn't and can't change itself. Very important. It's a go to. If and when I listen to a person LIVE, the next time I hear them speak, it isn't exactly the same thing that they said befor, even if they are honest truthful people.

Narcissists are very good actors! Found that out the hard way. And what I have found out is that it does no good to try and tell people about my experience with them, because they look at me like I am crazy! Narcissists definitely have people fooled, that is for sure!

Thank you so much. I have lived with this illness lifelong from a very ill family. By worldly terms, it s cost me "my life...," I had to spend all my energy and life-efforts just to survive. Thus, career, etc. couldn't happen/was never able to come together, not the least of which was due to much of my family using me as a "whipping boy," and gleefully looking for every opportunity to "kick the stool out from underneath me." I have found a spiritual path that is central to my "recovery," yet it's still an arduous journey. My ex-husband is heavily narcissistic too. I'm sure I have exhibited traits of it as well, but I'm usually only trying to get people to be fair or come together over things... Narcissists won't ever do that. I'm reminded that it's damage and shame that drives this...that's important so I stand a chance of not taking it personally. Narcissistic syndrome has, as it's aim, to crucify, as you pointed out, those most vulnerable." Many lifetimes" for them to come to terms with this, so to speak, I'm thinking...

I totally agree! Sometimes you just have to pretend to buy into their stupidity complete with the reactions they are hoping to trigger from you, especially when it's over nonsense that's so farfetched it's not even funny. Then when you suddenly drop the act and they realize you weren't as stupid as they thought you were, OMG LOOK OUT!!!!! You never make a fool out of a narrcisst!!!!!!

This was my ex-husband. He used manipulation & control tactics to divide/separate me from family & friends. Lied to everyone about me saying things about me when he was actually the one doing them. I took the fall for him soooo many times throughout the years, I’ve lost count. It was his idea to get a divorce to “get a clean start over” but told everyone it was me who wanted a divorce. The day after our divorce on a Monday, he asked me for $5,000 for a truck down payment because, after all, we’re getting back together… and his current truck is falling apart. I like a fool, believed him because we’d already been together 36 years & married 32 years & wanted to believe him that we were “starting over”. He made plans to meet the next day on Tuesday to get the $5000 & then to go to a dinner date on Thursday to start our new life. Well Thursday morning he called to say he decided he was going to keep his girlfriend instead. 🤢😳😡 I was stunned. I’d been told for a long time about his affairs & dalliances but didn’t want to believe them - including my friends & and my really young granddaughter who’d been with him overnight with him at his girlfriend’s house. But his first admittance to me was when he came to visit me before our divorce & brought an overnight bag for the weekend. I asked if he was still sleeping with that woman. His answer “Yes. After all I’m just a man. Why do you have a problem that I have a wife & a girlfriend?” To this date, he hasn’t abided by the divorce decree: still hasn’t split his 401K, didn’t pay the credit cards that were his responsibility, pay our son’s school loan. I didn’t even know our house was on the market much less sold until the title company called telling me they needed my signature. When I refused because I didn’t know anything about anything about any of it, within a few minute, one of daughters called me to say “If you don’t sign those documents & give dad all the money, you’ll never see your grandkids again.” Being bullied by not only my husband, but now being bullied by my children too, I signed the documents. 😵💫😩😭 Since then even still, I saw a post on Facebook about how excited my kids were about their dad writing & self-publishing a book on Amazon. I thought “What?” Sure enough, it was MY book that I gathered all the stories & testimonials on, he & I discussed the title & who we might ask for their testimonies. But it was ME who DID ALL THE WORK!!!!’ And when I found the book, he had take my name off of it plus taken my own testimonies out of my book. And then claimed the book as his. He’s a major liar, cheater, thief, master manipulator, player. He looks & acts like boy next door. But he set me up to stab me in the back every single chance he got! The first 10 or so years were very very good. But after our oldest child got about 10, our private behind closed doors life became anything but.
