How many narcissists do you know? Do they impact on your daily life?

I have very personal reasons for asking this but I've lived with it all my life and I still pander to them. *sigh

That I'm aware of? I think two, at the moment. There were two or three others who used to be in my life but aren't anymore. So that would bring the total to five, if you count all the narcissists who have impacted my life (who I knew were narcissists).

Yes, the two I currently know do impact my life, unfortunately. One of them I'm not able to get away from, at the moment. I need to save up enough money to get my own place, and then we'll see.

Part of the problem is that they really know how to make themselves look good and make it seem like you're the problem. Heck, they've even had me feeling as though I was the problem. It can really mess with a person's head, and it can also mess up your relationships with other people, even people you felt close to in the past.

I hope you're able to get free of them. It's terrible, the damage they can do.

@TeresaRudolph71 It’s peaceful when they are no longer near. Not only because of the damage they do but they constantly find a way to get under the skin, it is stressful.

@TeresaRudolph71 How awful for you. :-( My situation is not as bad as yours but you definitely have my sypathies.
