Are you reflecting on personal experiences with a narcissist, or are you just exploring the topic?
@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays I had PTSD from a narcissist, and one in the family just recently abandoned me. My own daughter. It just breaks your heart when you are just dropped as if you are nothing and abandoned, but there is a way out.

They are very dangerous people, conniving, with no conscience at all. Years ago I dealt with a narcissist and developed PTSD. I had to find my own way out of that nightmare and so I studied them and know them inside out, and reclaimed my health. They can just destroy you to pieces if you let them. And never feel guilty over what a narcissist does to you if you've ever encountered one. Their game is to make you feel as guilty as they can and my narcissist told me they hope I die. These are people that blow situations out of proportion, they will smear you to everyone and claim you're the worst person in the world, but you can't let that affect you. That's just the way these people are. They have no conscience. This person threatens me and I believe this person could even kill me if they had the chance and thought they could get by with it. I have many witnesses to prove that what I have been accused of is not my fault, but I don't need those witnesses because I know who I am and what I am. I know I'm a good person and that's really really important to know, who you are. Otherwise this person could really damage you for life. You have to see them for who they are and realize and keep in mind that these people are just mentally ill. They have things in their mind that they have dreamed up and actually believe.
@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays My daughter is a malignant narcissist and she has completely abandoned me and threatened me, then laughs about how she is going to do all kinds of things to hurt me, has slandered my name, and says she hopes I die a terrible death.

When I said I was exploring the topic, I didn't mean this was a new subject for me. Not by far. I am very well educated on this subject, as years ago, I had to study this subject inside and out, in order to help myself heal from PTSD and still study all aspects of it so I can be of more help to people. Since my daughter recently abandoned me, I have revisited what I learned and thought I would try to help others here that I've noticed are suffering from the same, get through it. I could write a book on this subject and find that special videos on narcissism are very comforting as I navigate through this myself. It can be a very devastating experience, if you don't know how to help yourself. I sincerely hope I can help others here. There's a special technique that must be faithfully practiced, if one is to recover their health. One which seems so simple, some just ignore it, thinking it couldn't possibly work, but I'm here to prove it does. It does take time and patience with ones own self.

Sadly, some women never recover from a narcissistic experience. They allowed the programming and abuse, far too long, and stayed too long. They have been emotionally crippled to the point they can't see their way past it.

Yes. All so sadly true. My mom is a malignant narcissist so they take pleasure in another feeling fear or sadness etc. My life was a nightmare because of her. Criticizing EVERY single thing you do, say, think or feel. It was crippling. I have PTSD as an adult because of her horrible psychological abuse. I read recently in a book on Narcissists, the author said, you can't even expect to TALK to them really. If you say something good, they criticize it. If you say something sad, they criticize it. It really made a bell go off reading that. Because you always hope one day MAYBE they won't lash out, threaten, or belittle you. But unfortunately, that will never happen. They do not ever EVER change. 😢

Thank you 🙂

@Elisbch No problem
@Coralmist Yes, that is a given. Low self-esteem, low self-confidence and self-worth all come with it.

A very helpful post for everyone whether they are dealing with some narcissistic person in their family or even at their job. I have seen narcissist people very close to me and I agree with you completely. Avoidance is the best trick one could get to,in the long run.
@DanielsASJ My daughter's diagnosis is called malignant narcissism. For those who are unfamiliar, there are different stages of narcissism and malignant narcissism is deemed the worst. She has completely abandoned me and threatened me, then laughs about how she is going to do all kinds of things to hurt me, has slandered my name, and says she hopes I die a terrible death.

There's a special technique I taught myself, derived from long meticulous study on narcissism. I knew I had to, if I wanted to survive. It must be faithfully practiced, if one is to recover their health from this devastating ordeal. I helped another lady survive her experience through this technique, which I was using at that time for myself, as well. Trouble is, it's so simple, some will completely ignore it, to their own detriment...thinking it couldn't possibly work, so they never recover, but I'm here to prove it works! You have to do your homework. It does take time and patience with ones own self. God helped guide me to the right resources, then I applied all those to God's truths, for success.

I never cry over them anymore. They aren't worth a tear. What a waste of time..LOL 🤣.. Ditch them and move on.

Dont make me cry againnnnn
@LemonWorld

You don't have to cry anymore. Just get away. Make sure you get away no matter what it takes. Totally cut these people from your life. If you're going to get well, it will take your doing so. Helping yourself. And see counseling most of all. And pray about it. But whatever you do, you must get away. Life is too short to be miserable or to be tied to someone that is mentally ill. We can't help ourselves if we won't acknowledge that we don't deserve the abuse. Love yourself enough to get away for good and that means in a healthy way. There's organizations out there that can help you.

There's no excuse in this world that is good enough to keep you in the clutches of abuse.
