The narc in my life liked to provoke me to anger and then shame me for overreacting. But even my anger was never the level of rage they would go into just because of things not going their way.

Same exact thing happened with me. He would needle me and provoke me. Over and over. I would ask him to stop, kindly and calmly. He would persist until I was so angry I wanted to scream. Then he claimed I was the unhinged one. It was a horrible cycle. I am so glad I’m out of that crazy nightmare.

While this has damaged my self-esteem, I now know beyond any doubt that I should always trust my gut instinct. I knew this was going to be trouble before I even began, and then I spent all of 2023 in agony, learning in the trenches what this form of mental illness looks like. I had been single for a couple of decades, and my naive heart has been ripped out of my chest. I just keep telling myself it's better to be lonely than to be miserable. But my god, this was a side of humanity I never would have wanted to know about. People are fucking crazy. I truly wonder whether I will ever be able to fall in love again. As others have said, I'm mourning the loss of something that I never even had. It was an illusion spun for the benefit of an incredibly self-absorbed and toxic woman.

@@dsstephen2173 I feel the same, my relationship was 9 months… and the death of it, “by a million cuts” - I tolerated because I was lonely (had not been in a relationship for 12 years). I was 100% good to him, then he shot me away like a cannon - when he was ready to ‘love bomb’ the next woman (I mean victim). I’m absolutely traumatized, then remember- it’s mental illness that I tolerated and fell in LOVE with. I seriously wonder if I will ever trust another human again. I have 100% abandoned the idea of any future relationship and will be GLAD when I no longer take up space in my head with thoughts of him. LESSON learned, the hard way. Pay attention to your small gut voice, in the beginning!!! We were ‘love bomb’ victims,easily off guard by that- because the FAKE intense interest felt soo good, after no one had been interested in years. They were delighted to come across such naive souls; AND we fell hard🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️. Now we understand, the covert narcissist-intimately….

It’s normal to blame yourself or question if you could have done more. It’s normal to want revenge. It’s normal to feel the desire to expose them. It’s normal to feel shame, fear anger and guilt. What is not normal or healthy, is to act on these feelings. But narcissists will do that!

You thought that person was your soulmate and now after being discarded you wonder if everything was real. Was it all a dream? One of the worst ways I coped was giving myself this false hope that they would come back into my life as I was just wasting my time waiting for them, unable to move on. It’s like even when you don’t hear from them and they’re not around, it still feels like they’re manipulating you and having control over your emotions.
@sallyfrost5002
@sallyfrost5002 6 месяцев назад
I was wondering if You have also experienced the confusion of believing that the person was your soul mate not because of having common likes, dislikes, or core values but rather because the intensity of their promise to love you made you feel like you were sharing the most amazing dream ever. He made me feel like I was special and seen during the lovebombing . During the love bombing he convinced me that no other couple could ever dream or love as deeply as us. It seemed magical! Sadly I found out later that the dream I embraced was as elusive as the man I thought I loved and knew. I look back and feel physically sick that I believed he was my soul mate because of how passionately he vowed to love rather than base that belief on mutual respect and true devotion which is seen in their willingness to do what's needed to make the relationship work rather than let you carry their weight as well as your own. Hugs to all survivors!

@@sallyfrost5002 Yes, I can relate to what you shared here! The love bombing is so seductive, isn't it? I fell for it, even with all of my "knowledge" of past narc relationships, and knowing what a narc is. It was absolutely a dream/fantasy I was embracing, rather than having anything in common, or really being "soul mates". They're so good at mirroring us, and in the beginning they're able to keep the mask on. But after a while the mask falls off, and who they really are (or aren't) is revealed. I feel sick too, that I fell for it. But I learned a lot from that experience, and I think I will be wiser if find myself being love bombed again.

Well I had a brief encounter with a guy from my job , never had sex or anything , texting if that’s what you wanted to call it mainly one sided from me no reciprocation on his end , yet he was the one who approached me , acting like he wanted to be with me , but when he saw me at work all I got was his back , he would see me and ignored me like he was embarrassed 😞 That was hurtful and still is how he could be cold as ice and when I would ask him I get deemed to be “crazy” all that mistreatment to find out by him that he is talking to another girl at work. I am not feeling angry , hurt I have a lot of “why’s” . I have no idea if he’s a narc, but I do know he is evil and the truth is definitely not in him.

Narcissists argue with you and do all the other aggravating things like devalue, discard and Hoover to put distance between you and them - to fill space and time with chaos - instead of love. Narcissists can’t do love because they feel unworthy and completely detached from their core selves.

I'm fortunate that my husband is a rock and just let me talk and talk. I hope that I can be a listener for someone else one day. Because just being able to talk about my doubts and voice my anger at the situation was the biggest healer for me.

I think about him all the time and I realize that I never want him back, because I jumped off of the roller coaster and took my life back, but now I’m on a journey to find the old me and it’s so hard! Even after so many months have passed! I have watched videos galore on narcissistic relationships throughout you tube’s channel, but I want you to know that this is one of the most helpful videos I’ve seen thus far! Thank you! I currently feel like a hot mess and very few even know! They think I’m ok, but I’m really not! I don’t want him back, because I feel that I deserve to be treated way better than I was treated! This relationship made me never want to love another man again in this life! But I’m more focused on God and He is helping me through this! Thank you so much Dr Romani! This video was so on point!

“YOUR ABUSIVE PARTNER DOESN’T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HIS ANGER; HE HAS A PROBLEM WITH *YOUR* ANGER. One of the basic human rights he takes away from you is the right to be angry with him. No matter how badly he treats you, he believes that your voice shouldn’t rise and your blood shouldn’t boil. The privilege of rage is reserved for him alone. When your anger does jump out of you-as will happen to any abused woman from time to time-he is likely to try to jam it back down your throat as quickly as he can. Then he uses your anger against you to prove what an irrational person you are. Abuse can make you feel straitjacketed. You may develop physical or emotional reactions to swallowing your anger, such as depression, nightmares, emotional numbing, or eating and sleeping problems, which your partner may use as an excuse to belittle you further or make you feel crazy. Why does your partner react so strongly to your anger? One reason may be that he considers himself above reproach, as I discussed above. The second is that on some level he senses - though not necessarily consciously - that there is power in your anger. If you have space to feel and express your rage, you will be better able to hold on to your identity and to resist his suffocation of you. He tries to take your anger away in order to snuff out your capacity to resist his will. Finally, he perceives your anger as a challenge to his authority, to which he responds by overpowering you with anger that is greater than your own. In this way he ensures that he retains the exclusive right to be the one who shows anger.” ― Lundy Bancroft, Why Does He Do That? Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men

It took me almost a year and a half to regain self confidence, and rebuilding a "normal" version of myself. Social anxiety was one of the hardest "side effect". To anyone who is going through the abuse and destructiveness it's causing- my advice- walk away from the relationship, or should I say run... I never in my wildest dreams would have thought that I could be so destroyed, psychosomatic. I lost my job because of the relationship. I had two dogs, and she made me give it away because she didn't like it as much as my other dog. It was my baby, had the dogs before meeting her. We lived together for 7 years. After having locked myself in one of the bathrooms, and being rescued by my mother ( yes, my mother actually forced me out of the house). I wasn't willing to give up the hope for her becoming a nicer person with time, as long as I did what she wanted me to say, and do. I'm now studying psychology, and now believe she not only had narcissistic tendencies. She might be malignant, sociopathic- and with a good portion of histrionic, or maybe borderline tendencies. I taped many of her outbreaks, and only now have I found strength to listen- and "analyze". I now hear she was sleeping around with two other's almost for the entire duration of the relationship. One of them "was" also my best friend. Stay strong and safe. If you don't realize what you're dealing with, like me- then they can form and manipulate you to the point of total destruction. I was mere a shell of the old me. A positive side effect might be that I discovered a lot of things, such as habits, and way of being that actually needed the breakdown? Metacognition, self analysis and reflections has been good for me. Life can- and should be a good experience of existence? Narcissists in their spectrum, are evil people. I didn't believe in evilness, not to the extent I experienced. Now I'm very vary about who I let in my life. When new people that seems VERY nice, the red flags comes flying. Asking them certain questions can uncover many of them pretty quickly. Harder with some real psychopaths, at least for me. But the biggest shock for me wad recently discovering that my father is actually psychopathic. He's a medical doctor, btw. A sad Discovery. Once you see it, you can't unsee it, maybe, I don't know. We live in our head's, and it should be a good place to be. If someone tries to change your perspectives, behavior and digging deep within your mind- pay attention. Red flags.... Sorry for the long talk about my situation. It was actually therapeutic, I notice that now when writing- and reflecting upon it 😊 Hope your having a good day 😊

My ex boyfriend of four and a half months wanted me to choose between him and my furbabies. I thank God every day that I didn't give away my dogs because he doesn't like dogs. I have received more unconditional love from them than he could ever pretend to give. I hurt when I hear stories where other people actually did give their furbabies up for the sake of a one sided relationship. I realize that could have been me and I shudder to think how much more pain I would have to go through if I had done what my ex wanted. Hugs to anyone who has lived through this nightmare.

I think many of us don’t realize we’ve been entrenched in narcissistic relationships long before we experience the catastrophic devastation of the most extreme version of a malignant one. It’s almost as if we need to be “hit upside the head” to finally learn and accept that we’ve been pushed way too far since we were little. We don’t know those boundaries. Then, we can’t see anything else … “not everyone is a narcissist.” I’ve heard that so many times. Being in a relationship with a narcissist is like seeing a ghost. No one else believes any of what you describe.

Excellent point (that many people may not get until they do the work). Narcissistic abuse literally opens a Pandora box that forces you to look at your past (narcissistic parents, toxic childhood) and your own patterns (lack of boundaries, extreme agreeableness, people pleasing, erasing ourselves to make things work). And it IS just like ghosts! 😂 Until you've been hit by it, you can't see it.

the hardest part of the breakup is realising that the sweet talk and support was not real. I realise today that of course a narcissist would not come to you and tell you 'I will use you for money and I will destroy your self esteem to put myself above you'. but they will. and in order to do so, they have to make you fall in love for them, because when you're in love you would do anything for that person. I find it hard to draw the line between what was real and what was not. you listen to a person who claims to love you and be by your side and yet you feel bullied and laughed at. the hardest part for me is realising that no matter how many times I go back and read sweet messages and remember cute gestures, I know today it was always to get something out of me and surely he did. and when I told him that I was not going to do pay for everything and I wanted my own needs to be met, not a lot of time has passed before he was gone. LOL.. but they will always be the nice person who means no harm to nobody and, trust me, they don't wanna be dumped so they will fake cry and all.

I recently found my journal from my divorce. I didn't know much if anything about narcissistic abuse, and gaslighting. I couldn't figure out if I was crazy paranoid or what. I was doubting reality so bad in some ways. I had nobody to talk to about it. All I could do was journal. This journal was from 2007-2008. It's been a long time.

Making the icky shitlist takes me longer then a few months. When you get to healing and such, at least to me a lot of things keep falling in place, kinda adding to the list. Just a list of all the covert psycho abusive stuff they pulled is taking me years already, let alone a complete list of all their abusive behavior, that would take a lifetime. However, the list I've made so far is already eye opening, like "how did I ever miss all that "? Probably because it's too much to remember at one time and while you're in a N relationship they just keep feeding you with one thing after the next so you never get to adding it all up anyway. Making a list allows to connect the dot's and see more of the full picture.

I don't have anyone to talk to my head is so burnt out going over things in my head starting to realise more betrayle that went on and not being able to confront the abuser about it, it keeps me awake at night I feel worthless I never knew a person so evil could exist I give her everything and she destroyed me and I still love her why am I so stupid. 😭😭

I went NC with family members before I knew what narcissistic abuse was. I've healed a great deal over 5 years. This video validates my experience as well as driving home that this REALLY IS narcissistic behavior that drives us to this precipice. I struggled a great deal with whether I were mistaken, but I was not. Knowing this, letting go of that self-doubt, was a major step on my healing journey. Thank you for providing that validation.

Thank you for this. Woke up with it everyday. Went to bed with it everyday. Non-stop and I mean NON-STOP rumies. It took over a year to get back to me. Couldnt eat or get out of bed or stop crying and showed up to my life on autopilot. When he kept hoovering months later, I finally had closure. Not 100% but close and he kept on. It told me the woman he left me for didn't work out. I never replied and your videos helped me learn about it, the Covert form and all this was new info as I kept googling his behaviors.

Thanks Dr Ramani. Mine never did hoovering. I always made the peace and apologised after many episodes of silent treatment and discards. I wish I had a friend like yours. ❤ Getting it off your chest does help so much. My family has been supportive, but they have not given me much space to talk about it. I'm getting better though, but I feel as though I never want to be with anyone ever again. I'm 8 months out of an 8 year relationship.

I got divorce with my Narc husband 4 years ago. In fact, it is him whom abandoned me because he found another woman who is much more useful for him. However, when I learned he and his new wife traveled romantically, I am still very angry and crazy, because I thought about some good time he gave to me and right now, the new woman shares that romantic with him. Thank you, Dr. Ramani, your ICK list, it really helps. I remember he slept my "friend" and said it because he was drunk and this woman went to his bed!!! After that, he brought me to Key West, Florida, told me to wear bikini, however, he then laughed at my lack of plump body figure, saying I was as flat as a coffin board. . . . I was so ashamed on the beach that I even considered getting breast augmentation surgery..... During the 15 years marriage, I was abused so deeply, lose all my confidents, be devalued day and day. At last, he found another woman, left me. Thank you so much, Dr. Ramani, your speech heals me a lot.

The hardest part about leaving him, is not him. It’s the family that he brings. This large extended wonderful family I have had to look through, over, around my husband to have them. He is absent in this house we don’t talk we don’t have sex. We have no emotional or physical connectionsand he has triple down on I’m not going to do anything. I am trying to keep that perspective in my mind that I deserve more than a man that lays on the couch and won’t talk to me. However, giving up the extended family is super hard.

I had just started dating a woman who practices polyamory. After our second date…, constant triangulation/flirting/edging, I felt uncomfortable and spoke up. She stonewalled/silent treatment me for 3 weeks‼️We reconnected and then with two more dates under the belt…, I expressed a reasonable boundary about not having my information of me/private photos/shared thoughts be passed to all her ongoing male lovers (5 guys in their 40s-60s). I’m in my early 30s/lesbian. She rejected my boundary request due to her polyamory setup being fixed…, devoid of consent, boundaries, and privacy, which she terms as “transparency”. All of these people she chronically/simultaneously dates…, they are just NARCISSISTIC SUPPLY for her! 🚨3 things narcissists strongly dislike: lack of constant admiration/validation, accountability, and the establishment of firm boundaries🚨.

I definitely have experienced almost all of these. I have (over shared) anonymously in part because of the obsessive desire to talk about him. It’s exhausting for me, so I know it is for others. I ask for space to talk but I feel so guilty- too guilty. Places where others have experienced this has been helpful. I found a local support group that helped immensely. I am nearly two years out and I can still get on a tangent lol but everything about the end of that relationship has been so destabilizing and destructive for me . I don’t believe the things I use to believe. I don’t move through space the same way. It’s weird. In someways I feel more free for having lost everything. I’ve tried to replace the feelings of loss with hope.

I feel like I was the one not chosen.. literally, they broke up with me and moved on with a fiance and then said they are trying to be a better person... where was that person when i was there??? It starts to consume u.. the point of why me. It's daily acceptance for me and sitting in the UNcomfortable. I know I've been played, ino I'vee been abused.. they say im the love of their life YET they chose to not be with me and the other person... that's my reality. Why dont we believe? Is the abuse so deep that we blind ourselves.... why dont we believe, and why do we struggle with radical acceptance. I try every day.. and im going to try today.. again.

Dr. Ramani, I remember you doing a video on MedCircle and you stated to do self-talk out loud in front of a mirror, to journal that writing helps you get it out of your head, and to do a hobby or project and I have to say, I did the self-talk, I have always journal, but did it more and I started a remodeling my bedrooms...going through and painting each bedroom. I'm on the second one and I cannot thank you enough. It has helped me so much with my emotional disregulation, getting in touch with my inner child, getting some anger out, helped pull me out of the rumination. You are a God sent. I have found a therapist who specializes in trauma, but not sure if she knows NA. Your videos are a life line to understanding what has happened to me. By the way, I'm also learning so much from your Gaslighting workshop. Thank you for being you and for being the voice to help so many of us. I don't know how you do it, but thank you.❤ Edit: I wished my parents were alive; so I can walk away from them instead of them leaving me. This part has been the hardest part to come to terms with.

Good advice Dr. Ramani. Life's too short not to move forward with clear goals. About hoovering. I consider it a red flag if someone tells me that they have remained in extremely close relationships with their X's: ie; spending weekends with them, or in contact with them on a daily basis. I first read that hoovering is to be avoided, in "Teen" magazine, in the 70's. It was good advice then, and it is now. I feel that a part of the hoover, may be that the NPD's I've known, enjoy bragging that their X is competing against me, for their time, and attention. Therefore, a red flag for me to avoid becoming involved with a harem situation.

I do blame myself for it mostly, I understand that it was all him, but I kick myself for not getting away, getting out a long time ago & putting myself through what I didn't deserve. I mean I could've had a better life if I didn't stay, I could've met the right person & had a family, I could've traveled & seen all the beautiful, gorgeous places here in the states/other countries, I could've had the masseuse career that I wanted among other things.

I don't know if he thought or still thinks that he's Bipolar or if it was just a cover up. 🤔 He never sought help or to get medication, nothing so my relationship was very stressful. He wore my Adrenal Glands out. I felt like I was his mother getting him up in the mornings for work (when he had work), making his lunch & coffee, reminding him about everything because he would conveniently "forget" & blamed it on his short term memory. I dreaded waking him up, asking him a question, talking to him so when he was off work, I left him asleep for as long until he woke up on his own, hecwas like taking care of a child. I figured out myself how to do stuff on my own like with things I didn't know how to do because I dreaded bothering him with any of it.

Brilliant, making a list of the insults and gaslighting to later remind one's self of the troubling aspects of the relationship. I haven't thought about it in my current situation but I now recall years ago I once helped a friend not leave his marraige; he had an ex come around and offer to restart with him, and I could see it in his eyes that he was living in the whip cream of the fantasy and dreaming of the cherry on top. I told him he should do a pros-and-cons list of the old relationship, and then do one for his marraige. A few days later he told me when he did the cons list of the old relationship he remembered how terrible it was and it made him turn the ex down and stick with his wife. Now the advice comes around full circle, thanks.

Your words gives me strength to keep going and to understand all that I'm feeling inside and makes me more patient and understanding with myself, and I can actually be hopeful for what my future has reserved for me, new people who I can really connect and feel appreciated, being able to do what I want to do without my ex being jealous of me for nothing and making me feel bad all the time for wanting to accomplish things in life, I can find a real loving man now, who will enjoy going out with me and being with my family and friends, and enjoying my presence and really wanting me to grow and develop. Watching your videos make me feel hopeful because they make me understand that I'm used to having so little love, and makes me understand that all of that begin with my parents who are also narcissistic and didn't appreciate me for who I am, and that I deserve REAL LOVE!!! I won't accept less than I deserve!!! I know my worth! I wont let anyone put me down anymore! I love myself and I believe there is great love for me out there! Thank you very much Dr Ramani!
