Narcissistic abuse is all pervasive, across all areas, affects all involved with a #narcissist. It involves a wide variety of manipulative tactics, is longstanding, highly abusive, coercive, sophisticated, subtle, of long duration, highly controlling, utilzes #narcissistic agents

It is used overtly or covertly by the narcissist or their 'agents'. It is designed to attack your independence, autonomy, to #control you, to break you down because it makes them feel better, period!#Gaslighting works under the guise of caring about you. It is designed to

Get you to deny your own #reality. This is. It loving. Many other manipulative tactics are involved. They are also not loving or kind. A narcissist recruits an entire community to do it's dirty work for him/her. The Narcissitic agents are also part of the problem. It is usually

Not one-on-one #abuse as others are in on it too. Think 'Mean Girls', the movie. Think activist groups. Think families who scapegoat you. Think of narcissists at work. It is insidious and #toxic #meangirls #abusive #violent #covert #manipulation

The victims families, friends, colleagues, associations, hobbies, social media, organisations all somehow get involved as the narcissist manipulate and infiltrated them all. They will use personal or intimate information against you stab later stage. They #gossip deceive and lie

The narcissist is #psychotic and shared his/her psychosis with others going they will buy the lies or believe him. It's a 'shared psychosis'. The victims are more depressed, more anxious, more disoriented, suffer C-PTSD, felt trapped and hopeless, acquired learned helplessness

The narcissist relies on intermittent reinforcement and operant conditioning. It's a shared psychotic disorder and #trauma bonding with Stockholm syndrome as it's worst with the gaslighted believing they are #crazy. Panic attacks, sleep disturbance are common as is safety issues

And paranoia. Everything the narcissist is #weaponised as they live to dominate you, control you, argue with you, bait and switch you, deceive and lie about you. Victims are often stalker by their abuser who accuses them of stalking then (projection). #Victims may have to move

Buy expensive security equipment, take self defence lessons, go to therapy, become Victims of Crime, have to get #Police involved, have to move, have to get restraining orders, utilise lawyers, and more. Narcissitic abuse is much closer to stalking as it is #paranoia psychotic

Behaviors that are protracted towards you over time. It interfere with the Victims ability to work. The workplace may become unsafe, they may follow you, leading to loss is income and status. Narcissists are dream wreckers and joy stealers. They can't stand it when you are happy

Or having Fun and will ruin every joyful event you are a part of. They are fabricators of #reality, deceivers and liars. Their engagement in #stalking is evident as is physical violence such as trying to run you down with their car. They love to follow you offline and online

They are often highly envious of you, nothing is ever good enough and they put their #children into dysfunctional 'roles'. They isolate you from family friends and colleagues. The abuse does show up in the brain and that can be healed #chaos #disordered

PTSD and/ C-PTSD is inevitable unless you see the early signs and leave, are already in a good program and/or have support and a #therapist. The constant hyper vigilance arousal & survival mode is toxic to both your mental physical health emotional health & #psychological health

Being in the 'narcissist dog' is common as is becoming you are the crazy one, the fraud, the mentally Ill person. The person is #fixated on having #control over you. The victims can become 'zombies' unable to look after themselves or their families

Ironically many narcissists psychologically leak their true intention when worlds slip out of their mouths, such as calling their partner a narcissist, telling their partner they like hurting them, telling the victim 'I love to hurt you' & then carry on talking as if they said

Nothing at all. They may call them a 'fraud', an 'imposter', all kinds of names and insults, then deny it all. They are incapable of showing empathy, having an intimate 2 way conversation, intimate sex.cyber stalking, death threats, smear campaigns, reporting you to boards or

Organisations are extremely common. They also view their animals, family members as 'objects' to show off rather then human beings. They use objects to make themselves look good. They live to compete, start fights and arguments, cause chaos, bait people, DARVO, #gaslight

Project and a whole host of other manipulation tactics. They love to stalk their victims either themselves or through other people. They are 'fixated' and often #obsessive in their mindset and cannot let go of their victim. This can end up quite dangerous #Stalking can last

years. The lack of #empathy, the goal focused cruelty, designed upset, deceptions, lies, lack of impulse control, recklessness, they are also right all the time, always have to win, are over controlling & lack of accountability. This can be mind-boggling to understand.

They hate #emotions punish others for being emotional, never apologize, cannot have a healthy discussion, and often psychologically leak the strangest comments from "why do you love me?" To "you're lucky I love you as none else will" and worse.

They purposely derail attachment and bonding with their victim. This is traumatising as it is the opposite of love, caring, empathy, being kind. They have little to no insight and awareness and rarely go to therapy. If you were raised by a narcissist you will find you have

A history of attracting them into your life. Time to break those patterns and heal for good. No more narcissists, psychopaths or sociopaths. Learn the red flags, set #boundaries get therapy for trauma, tell everybody in your life about your narcissistic, record everything to use

Later when needed. Learn the red flags and teach them to your children and family members. Stay safe out there as we deal with the #narcissism pandemic for many years to come ✨🙏 #therapy #detox #leave #getsupport #choosefreedom #woke
