    What I’ve learned to do is to say everyday to myself that I deserve more than that. I’m better than that. You literally have to put away your pride, make an ick list, take what self respect that you have left and boss up. Remember that you lived just fine before them and you’ll be so much better without them. Stop wasting you life for someone who can look you in the eyes and lie to you. Stop staying because you’re afraid to loose them. You’re not! They are loosing you. What they do and how they treat you is not love period. It hurts, it sucks, but it’s worth fighting for your life back.

    The breakthrough for me was when I realize I was being a hypocrite to myself. I was self sabotaging and gaslighting myself into thinking that they will change. They would come back to me with a smile and act like they did nothing wrong to me. I became their flying monkey and invalidated my entire experience with them. No More. I really couldn’t care less when it was over for them because it was over for me. Once you stop wondering what they’ll do and start paying attention to what you do, you experience a sense of freedom and joy that is addictive. This is how I was able to cut my mother and siblings off. It feels liberating🎉!!

    The hardest part for a Narc survivor is that we are trying to frame what happened from our worldview and how our minds work. The problem is that the Narc is psychopathic and does not think the way a regular person thinks. It's so hard to understand intellectually how someone can be this way, think this way and have zero empathy for another human being. You will never understand, and you will never get closure on it. You have to create your own closure and understand that these people just do not think like normal people. Also, I always hate when they use only "he" when talking about the narc-I know a lot of men who have been abused by Narcs also, me being one of them.

    It’s rooted in childhood. You attempt to attain the approval and love that you couldn’t receive from a parent, a caregiver or a sibling. You will seek out “familiar” dynamics and attempt to heal that very deep and painful wound rooted during your developmental years. I’ve come to realize every guy that I’ve gotten stuck on was just a representation of my sister. The only way to heal is to understand and accept what occurred. To come to the acceptance that it’s not about that romantic partner. It’s about someone who was a narcissist during your childhood and you’re doing nothing but a reenactment to try and receive that love from the romantic partner narcissist that you couldn’t get from a family member. You’re trying to heal that pain. It won’t work. You will be stuck in futile, painful dynamics-much like a hamster on a hamster wheel. Break the chains. ♥️⛓♥️

Now she is knocked up by a stranger she’s known for 6 months and is triangulating. I filed for divorce but I am distraught. She did this after my dad passed away. I cannot believe a human could be that reprehensible. She keeps saying how horrible and abusive I was. I did NONE of that. Was always telling her how much I loved her.

    I get it now. Your words clicked with me about cognizant dissonance. With my terrible relationship experience, it started out by being love bombed. He went out of his way to convince me he loved me and was going to marry me. Then the terrible treatment happened toward me. He was very suffocating and was attempting to remove my independence. He wanted me to depend on him and give up my own power and money. He then started cheating on me. In short, you can either believe the nice things he tells you that will happen together, Or you can believe the truth from your heart which is the reality of it all, that you are unhappy in the relationship and deserve to be treated better. This is when you need to take your own power back, love yourself, and believe the truth of how they make you feel, instead of believing and hoping it will get better when it definitely won’t.

    Cognitive dissonance is when they give you just enough reward to keep you trying and just enough abuse to keep you walking on eggshells . It confuses the brain and inactivates you. It is hell! It feels like being in a foggy daze. My Narc was the one who decided he wanted a divorce , but never would file. I finally had to just decide that my mental health was more important than the trauma bond and walk away and decide that no matter what I will never go back. It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do, but I'm still on my own and working on healing.

    2years after she threw my bags and kicked me out (I became depressed) I’ve Spent the last two years like a yo-yo being invited on walks, cooking for me, then telling me I’m a narc etc etc. I finally realise I need to collect my things for good, and after several attempts finally managed to get 1 van load. we arrange to get the rest after new year, and on 2nd Jan she calls to ask when is a good time to speak but asks to meet, only to then tell me she’s met someone else, and continues to annihilate my character. She called later to say sorry and didn’t want me to think she was being cruel or nasty. After 14 years it’s hard to stop loving her. But she outright refuses to acknowledge any part in our issues and blames me entirely, and started accusing me of being autistic, and a narc about 2 years ago. I too wish I could be stronger, and for it to pass. Good luck

Sixteen years and he is divorcing me. I should be happy that we are not together but it is easier said than done. He accused me of ruining his life !!!karma will visit him i am sure. Its always some one elses fault not his. A friend told me recently "as long as i have known him he has always played the victim". I will heal. My husband is divorcing me. He has to be in control but when things go wrong he never accepts responsibility.

He would say and do the most horrible things to me trying to get revenge (things that effected our children) when we separated and turn around just a few hours later and call to chit chat and tell me about random things that happened to him as if he didn’t JUST do me dirty. Very bizarre.

    Because he was trying to hurt you. He actually meant the opposite. You’re probably stunning with no make up and he gets jealous and insecure so has to lie and put u down. Their words are not facts. If you were ugly with no make up he wouldn’t even have gone out with you. They can’t see unattractive people as they have no use for them. The more the insults, the more of a threat we were. So turn it into a compliment. And let’s move on from them. They will only suck our time and life

    Cognitive dissonance causes difficulty…I didn’t want to deal with the past person but because it involved children it caused me to try coparenting which would cause and contribute to trauma in everything we experience when he was aware I didn’t want to deal with him…I feel guilty for it…To top it off, I talked to my family about everything I experienced and it as if they encouraged the experience so I shutdown and seemed stuck…Im mad with myself…Im still struggling with why my circumstances seemed so complicated when it was coparenting…As I recollect and I realize, it’s as if I was there and I wasn’t there…Down and in a daze those days…I guess I was in survival mode, struggling and suffering through the days and didn’t know I was as down as I was…Its hard and it hurts, it’s changed us completely…I wanted us happy and healthy and trying to tolerate the narcissist definitely did the opposite of that…I’m empty inside, emotionally exhausted, not myself…Narcissism is way worse if involving children, their way to control and continue contacting you…A entitled and selfish individual acting intentionally and manipulating to deliberately damage you and your mind…I wish I would’ve seen these type of videos on KZread 2-3 years ago

    My experience is they pretend, do things to make you feel better and what they think you want, but in reality they don’t really like children nor want to care for them. I was surprised when I asked my ex who seemed to like children and he told me he doesn’t want any but would give them to me so I have something to do with myself when he goes out.

    I have learned that underlying cognitive dissonance is addiction to the fantasy you can't come to terms with being non-reality. That's why you MUST do everything to bring yourself to the point of greater RADICAL ACCEPTANCE and, finally confront fighting the last battle - the battle which is in the mind, because (ultimately) the addiction takes refuge in the mind i.e., once FULL/TOTAL NO CONTACT has been established through other battles you have got past. For example, one battle is: have you changed your phone number and deleted the narcissist's number? Why not? Are you making excuses as to why you haven't done this yet? Yes, this is psychologically difficult for any target to do of course, but (REALITY CHECK) you are not ready to do battle with yourself being the priority until you shut down every arena of interaction with the narcissist. You MUST decide to WAR with this and actually 'do battle', until then you will not be effective. You will remain 'stuck' or trapped.

    Hey Ben, you kinda made cognitive dissonance sound like it was just that you couldnt make a decision between two options. When really it is an uncomfortable feeling that you cant shake because the evidence does not reflect your beliefs. I believe its your bodys warning system. You believe he loves you but his actions are showing he doesnt. Your mind and body will make this uncomfortable until your beliefs match up with the evidence . So you can change your definition of love or admit he doesnt love you.
