This topic HAS to be discussed so THANK you both for this discussion. I have been in a 30 year crazy nightmare that had no name . This abuse is real and STEALS the identity of the abused partner , steals the daily joy, steals thier past present and future due to the brainwashing done over years and years of gaslighting , starving of all forms of intimacy. And keep in mind this very thing is how a cult leader gets his followers to surrender ALL. This is a serious and REAL thing. I would rather hear people that throw the term around ( I do hate that because it dilutes the trauma for me ) But….. at least it’s discussed .Because then we can educate the facts to seperate the NPD from just having higher traits. Thank you so so much. Keep it coming, please!
