To you, hack your phone or hack into your computer. They are notorious for projection & will accuse you of stalking, being a fraud, abusing them. What they are doing is telling you what they are doing #projection
Some partners are known for videoing their partners (without their knowledge) & uploading those videos to the internet. Cyberstalking is very common. The narcissist is unable to move on and may continue the stalking for years & years. Some of my clients have been stalked for
To 10 or more years. A restraining order is. It effective however is is the start of their 'record'. Their pattern don't change & their behaviours eventually catch ip to them. These behaviors are a crime & cause distress, ptsd, for the victim. If you have been through
This experience, I can help you from both personal & client experiences. There is specialised help out there. You make make an appointment with me at calendly.com/taniamarshall
To understand, the narcissist is obsessed with you. They maybe narcissistic or #autistic & OCD or #clusterB The obsession is long-teen, intense, pervasive & protracted. Why are they so obsessed & fixated? They have no core self or inner value so they have to their value from
The external. Anything that feeds their ego is game. It is a predator/prey toxic game to the narcissist. #Stalking fixatedness & obsession is their 'oxygen'. There is NO sense of caring, empathy, love, concern for the other human being. They often act in 'parasitic'
Ways, attaching themselves to you, or a group. They ONLY attach themselves to you take from you, to gain information, to use you. It starts with love Bombing & then ends with discarding. They most always have #OCD They feel like they own you & you are an object to them 🚩
They have a #psychological need to be powerful important & in control of everybody in their sphere. They engage in
Splitting' - you are either all good or all bad. This is a #toxic defence mechanism. They do not see context, nuance or complications of people.
They demonise you. You can do no right. That was after they put you on the pedestal love you can only do right. They will then use their flying monkeys or #narcissistic agents to do their dirty work for them. Introspection self reflection or self-awareness are non-existent
They avoid shame, guilt, taking responsibility or taking accountability for any of their actions & they will blame you for everything they have done. They have a one sided story only about you & expect others to be on their side & agree with them #accoutability#noempathy
Remember they are black-and-white inflexible thinkers & they are always right. They make you the bad guy & they are the eternal #victim They invert, Twist distort & exaggerate what really happened. Up to 80% of domestic violence #abusers engage in stalking. They likely will #DV
A history of domestic #violence lying from childhood, a criminal background, whether that be with Police or just known by others. There is spyware on your phone, computer & spyware. You are not dealing with a healthy functional normal person #crime#truecrime#criminalrecord
Responding to them as though they are is futile. They are emotionally stunted likely at the age of a two-year-old. Their partners or family members may try to rationalise with them & get them to stop obsessing with you but there's usually does not work
They cannot except any personal responsibility for any level of criticism & will project it back on to you. This type of person has an inability to forgive & is full of resentment. They often have resentment about something that goes back as far as 20 years! #projection
Still #obsessed on it today & an inability to stop thinking about it in the present. You may be blamed for their abusive & neglectful parents unconsciously. They are unable to move past resentment & to learn how to forgive & move on. #livinginthepast
So they take it out on you. They have no concept of #boundaries & will violate yours on a repetitive basis. If you have exposed their #stalking they will make you their #scapegoat. It will get ugly & you will need to utilise police the legal system organisations friends family

Therapist Thread on #Narcissistic Injury & Narcissistic Rage 🧵: the reactions are disproportionate the the perceived 'slight', which is the injury. They are 'over the top'. For e.g. they want you to lose your entire career because you disagree with them on something.
Narcissistic injury is caused by: 1.challenged confidence. When there excessive needs for admiration your attention, time, energy are not met, they will #rage to protect their ego. 2. Injury to the narcissists #selfesteem often occurs because they don't have a stable sense of
Self. When this happens & the smallest failure is pointed out, they will #RAGE This may look like swearing, snorting, spitting, violence, screaming & melting down or covert and is always directed back at the person or projected back on the 'perceived' accuser.
From my upcoming book 'Fixated': Analyzing the language of the dark triad': This is an example of common psychopathology in 'language' responses, with consent from a client. These are common responses. What happens when we set boundaries with ASPD, NPD, BPD, etc.? #Mentalhealth
Setting #boundaries with people is healthy. It's what keeps us safe. Trouble is PD's or other socially unskilled people don't like or respect them. Example #1 Q: Please stop following me online, leave my social media alone & stop leaving unwanted comments. A: What do you mean?
Do you want me to ignore you when I'm on the Internet? Pretend you are not there? Or set my settings to screen you out? Or do you want me to have a special software program created specifically that filters your name out every time I'm on the Internet? #toxic#manipulation
Therapist Thread 🧵 The difficulty in treating 'self-hatred'. BPD, other PD's, autism, aspergers, gender dysphoric clients who often present with extreme self-hatred. They have a great need to avoid their subjective internal experience or deflect it with external anger of hatred
They may be there in therapy but emotionally avoid, highly dissociate &/ or use drugs & alcohol, are hostile ("I hate all people", "no-one can help me", Shame- prone, isn't regular with appointments, never had a role model that cared for them in their life #therapy#hatredofself
Patients who attack themselves verbally or other is distressing for the #therapist The client has often hidden the level of self hatred they have. They have adapted in ways to hide this from themselves & others. Some feel they are punished by fate or karma. Some can't show how

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
👀Lifeless Eyes👀: In my post Masters externship, my clinical supervisor taught me about the 'eyes'. Many people do not realise these eyes 👀 to be a red flag ⚡️ to stay away from these people. Why do the eyes of narcissists, sociopaths & psychopaths look 'lifeless'? #clues
‘Lifeless’ eyes can be a dissociative state, where a person completely shuts off from their True core Self, inner self identity & emotions. They direct their focus toward their outer environment, a person of interest, or a person of potential threat, devoid of an inner self
These personality types no longer feel typical emotions as this can remove feelings of fear, shame, trauma or vulnerability. Their brains are wired differently than yours. They are unable to label and identify their feelings, have no empathy and can be very dangerous #lessfear
