NOTE TO KZread STAFF: Warning of potential copyright claim abuse. This documentary was produced with the help of TheDML/Just Another Label. This company has provided music for this documentary and has granted permission for usage in this film. A person within this company has threatened to file for a copyright claim, after we split up romantically. In case of a report, it is important to know that this is a personal attack, and no true infringement. I have evidence to prove that there is no truth to any claims. For more information on this type of abuse, watch this video:
'Surviving Narcissists and Psychopaths,' documentary about Narcissistic Abuse, 2019
This documentary focusses on the survivors of narcissists and psychopaths, and what it is like to be in a relationship with them. It discusses confusion, gaslighting, health issues because of the trauma, and why it is so difficult to pull away from these type of relationships.
Experts on the subject who are featured in this documentary are: Sam Vaknin, Jan Storms and Mjon van Oers. Sam Vaknin and Mjon van Oers (in dutch) have written books about narcissists. Jan Storms, as a specialist on psychopathy, has written a book about (destructive) relationships with a psychopath, which is soon to be released in english as well.
Produced by Aletta Meijer, with the help of Femi Olasehinde.

    The hardest part about being a victim of narc abuse is that it becomes difficult to trust even the genuinely good people you meet later on in life.

    I am just now learning about the narcissism of a manager, experimenting with Gray Rocking and seeing the predicted results in real time... and it's like waking up in an alternate reality where everyone I encounter might be somewhere on the spectrum, and narcissistically jockeying for their supply. And then asking myself if I am being narcissistic by Gray Rocking my manager. What head trip.

Luckily she was never left with him so he could not have molested her but makes me wonder did he moleste someone or someone moleste him when he was younger ? Why would he do that ? To break down the family unit? Or as a confession ?

In the last year I have started to get back to who I am... my friends tell me they saw it for years how unhappy I was and how much I changed when I was with him. They know how to mess with you deep down. I could go on and go on... I now can see all that damage he did and recovering still. I am gaining my self worth back and I don't question myself so much.

She turned into the victim and I was the bad guy. 17 years of instant rage out of left field, aggressive driving, can't have a decent conversation without turning into an argument, cursing and yelling at me, controlling on what we do, her way or no way, just to name a few. I tried leaving 4 times and came back, now I'm done. Called a lawyer and getting ready to start the process. I'm proud of you!

    They also sabotage attempts to rely on oneself, which isn't strategically difficult in an "every little peon is a rival to please the bosses better" socioeconomic system. That is probably usually a bigger deal to the extent that there is an initial clout difference, like when a narcissistic parent singles out a kid for ruin or when the narcissist has a lot of money or connections, but fixation on strategy plays a role too. One of the most memorable things my father has told me after a beating when I was a kid was "you did that to yourself". The cult of self-reliance carries its own baggage as a tool of abuse.

    undermine your confidence and strip you of your unique identity, destroy your health and credibility, avoid being held accountable for anything, explosive dramatics,- They will parrot you, as they have no original thoughts, and steal the credit. narcissists have an instinct for the attention-deprived. They come to the rescue, feel they own you, when they pillage your life, they feel justified, righteous- if you protest they will rise up like a biblical apocalypse and scheme to ruin you socially. Been there, in survival mode, being marginalized, led me to being a pioneer in many areas, naturally, I gravitated towards the practice of social distancing over a decade ago. Peace.

Don't care about shame, cause these people weren't there when you were suffering. Who cares what the believe. Sending you all the best wishes

    My ex narcissist actually told me "People like me more than they like you" (this was after his smear campaign behind my back to everyone we knew). My response must've actually come to me through intuition, because my response was "That's because they don't really know you" It was gaslight city after that. I know it was wrong but I still get great satisfaction from remembering how I backed him up against the wall and threatened to cut his tongue out after 20 years of his abuse. Those big eyes full of fear and him backed up against the wall. The coward knew he'd gone too darn far that time. I left him soon after that. Life is so stress free now. Once you lived in the hell of a narcissist, things as small as hearing the birds sing and watching the sun rise are stunningly beautiful. My soul is lit! 😊❤️ This is my wish for everyone who has suffered narcissistic abuse. You are more special than you know and you are worthy and very loved. ❤️

    Being with my ex narc for the past 6 yrs. made me observe this very pattern. I think they wanted to feel very important in a way that is disturbing. Instead of building trust with their intimate partners, they destroy the trust that they built with you (in that case lying when they tried to put you in their pedestal). Once they have a committed partner, they can’t stand being loved authentically by one person. Instead they go on and prey on other women that is susceptible to their love bombing. My ex narc was a compulsive pursuer in a relationship. He would go back and forth to the women he were involved before or try to meet women in complicated situation so that going public isn’t an option while having you as their main supply. In the end they destroy the very person that loved them. They are like toddlers testing your love for them. Showing and telling them you love them isn’t enough, they will cheat on your face to make you feel inadequate even if you are more than they deserve. They want to test your love for them so they keep hurting you and when you have enough of their abuse, you leave. Then they tell you, ‘you never loved me because you abandon me’. Well in fact it’s their actions and narcissistic behavior that made you leave or in other cases they discard you and will give silly reasons of the discard. Mine would use, ‘she’s crazy’, ‘she’s a nega-star’, ‘she insults me’, ‘she cheated on me’ et al. So with this pattern of infidelities and emotional abuse (who knows what else) it’s better to walk away. I did walk away and is now rebuilding my life with our daughter. We are struggling financially because I’m not earning enough to provide for my daughter but now we get to laugh and bring with us sunshine every day. No lies, no abuse and no fake love. We only live once, forgive yourself and move forward but never forget the lesson that narc abuse taught you. That is to respect yourself to walk away from what’s hurting and destroying you. That you deserve a life of solitude, happiness and love. Hugs*** :) Additionally I hired a private detective *Metaspyhub@gmail. com.* Once I knew what the narc was up to, it got easier to get over that lying, cheating, sack of doo doo, loser. I didn’t need closure from the narc, I paid for it. Best money I EVER spent!

From a very young age I decided I will look for something else in a relationship or not be in one at all. I was a very observing child and at 10/11 I begged my parents to get a divorce because I wanted it all to stop. They loved each other but the abuse was bad. If my dad and mom were not at each others throats my mom abused me during their happy periods. There was an actual pattern. I got married much later than my siblings and I looked for the opposite in a partner than what my parents were.

    The worst thing about narcissist abuse is it's abuse you can't see. There's no visible bruises or scars. No one except another victim would understand. You try and explain it to someone who doesn't know and they just don't get it. At age 20 I was in a physically abusive relationship and the guy ended up in jail. I met my narcissist at 28 and I dont care how screwed up this sounds, but I'd straight take being beaten 20 times over than the abuse of a narcissist. They literally make you go crazy and cross every wire in your brain and when you finally escape them they tourment you beyond belief. When your try and defend yourself you look crazy because they've masterfully manipulated everyone against you because they're always 2 steps ahead. I think these people are demonic, evil is coursing through their blood streams!

    Please do share this wide and far to psychiatric/mental health professionals! My mother is a viscious Malignant Narcissist in a religious right wing cult, my father, a massive enabler/vulnerable narc. They raised my GC older sister to be an absolute psychopath with me as everyone's scapegoated trash can of abuses. Long story short, I am an Autistic INFJ/empath. The brain washing and pernicious abuse were so severe, two of my children manifested rare stress triggered illnesses that almost killed them (unheard of epilepsy and obscure cancer). They gas light me all the way through them sabotaging my business and social world, while going to literal ends of the earth seeking medical help for my children...after over a decade of this, we left the state, and ended up with amazing medical professionals that Saved my kids. But by then my heart was failing and I was wrecked with CPTSD and all sorts of dangerously Traumatic events to recover from. Eventually burning my entire previous existence to the ground on my own was the only option. I lost a very large family and social world, businesses homes, almost 3 of our lives.... When I finally started to seek help for my self, I was further gaslight and DX'd as "bipolar, manic" told I was my own problem, improperly medicated and told to write letters to make up with my family! My recovery is mostly self made and supported through powerful videos like this! But, I am still seeking help for my dangerously intense PTSD. PTSD

    I relate so very much. My mother is a narcissistic person and the abuse started when I was a toddler. Recently I went on a trip, came home and her first words to me was “why do you hate me so much?” Then she ran off and slammed her bedroom door like a teenager. I’ve learned not to give her fodder so I ignore her. Yes I too am over 50 and she is old so I allow her to live with me. Because I’m a good person but I’m miserable.

    same here, I am 47 and I discovered the truth about 2 years ago, both my parents are narcissist so I cut ties with them recently, I confronted them with their lies and it was getting worse and worse, they just go into "destruction mode", so... I'm better off alone than with a family who tries to make me go nuts but it is not easy one way or the other.

    She's not gonna change, ever. Sadly as it is, I've been trying for 28 years to make her happy, I even made it my mission cuz I truly believed behind all that bad behaviour my mother was just broken but good. The way she jumped onto my dreams, my light and me as a person... I've decided freedom is my life mission now, being freed from her manipulation and control. Her health is crippled and she is getting old, she still berates and abuses, makes lots of threats (any kind) to regain control but I'm not believing her lies anymore, no more guilt tripping. I'm regaining my self esteem gradually, reconnecting with old friends and more important than all, telling my truth. I think there's hope for all of us, and we can help others through the fog. Stay strong, folks ❤

    I know this is an old video, but the information is still very relevant. I was with my husband for over 30 years. They're great actors, and when I had our baby, he couldn't relate to her. She just made him angry. ' Why is she always crying/ what's wrong with her, etc. I was 18 when I met him, and he was 26. People say,' Oh, you're so lucky to have such a nice guy' they didn't see him behind closed doors. I'm an empath , I thought everyone had empathy, but he had none. His problems were caused by other people, he said. I divorced him 12 years ago. I'm 60 now, I wasted my life. I didn't know what a narcissist was until a couple of years ago. That's when I had a light bulb moment. Thank you, internet, for all the information. Look for the red flags. Don't waste your life like I did.

Some people have a healthy level of self respect and want an honest partner, not one who sneaks behind your back, lies to your face, and lives as a deceptive liar. And often, is then happy to pretend you are the only one, when in fact, they have been putting their hands, mouth, tongue, and other parts all over someone else's body and putting on their super sexy acts for this someone or these people but not you. Many people, sooner or later, decide, that is NOT how they want to live for the remainder of their one and only lives, or to encourage their sons and daughters to believe that it is all okay. Some also don't want their grandchildren as well as their children to grow up with that total lack of respect and all of the tragic and destructive aftermath. Some women go out and find really good honest men, and wonder why they ever put up with such selfish, shallow, pathetic, deceitful, empty messed up human beings. It all gets down to what you will or won't put up with. If someone started lying to me, I would investigate. No question about it. If a small investigation had concerning results I would go as far as possible to get the truth. But that is because I have my standards clear from the outset, and consistently. And as an empath, truth is important. Plus I know my worth.

    Very wise to name it and go through the levels of grief. My family murdered me with lies, slander, identity theft, undermining any idea, new job or friendship. Then, they were angry when I was no longer around to blame for their "Mess" which consisted of grant fraud, creating fake Nonprofits, cahooting with drug traffickers and Worse! They still illegally entire my home and steal, they even stripped bare my front yard of @ $600 worth of colored mulch and $125 worth of rare lily bulbs. They ripped out security cameras. No fear, no remorse, no boundaries. I had a judge suggest I move to another country, change my name and carry a gun. All things I cannot afford to do. We are children of God, mother yourself, pray for the protection of angels.

However, I want to thank you for raising awareness about this topic as it is still not talked about enough how narcissists can literally ruin your life. I hope these survivors realize none of this was their fault and they find peace someday.

It makes me wonder even more what *actually* happened in all those stories about things they had happen to them where they were supposed to be the victim, especially the ones where they really didn't sound like a victim at all to begin with -- how bad could those have been?

My mental and physical health as well as my self esteem was at an all time low during the course of our relationship. Once I finally left him, he showed his true colors.

I remember once I grabbed a knife to defend myself because my ex was getting aggressive and trying to gaslight me to the point he must've thought I was really stupid to not see how blatantly he was lying to me. He then turned the situation into how I was so mentally unhinged I was going to hurt him and it wasn't like that at all, I was just genuinely afraid for my life and trying to defend myself.

It's hard, so so so hard but you will survive it. You'll come out broken, damaged and bruised but you will get through it. And trust me, you'll rise from all this and you'll shine brighter than ever.

    I have 2 little girls with a raging narcissist and it's horrible, yes. A couple months ago, I took the girls and went to a women's shelter for victims of domestic violence. He is still trying to control everything from the outside. He is accusing me of Parental alienation, of abducting the girls, even though I did what the police told me to do and took them from a toxic environment where he was drunk every night and abusive. We have court in a couple weeks, as I filed for full custody of the girls. Trying to coparent with these people is impossible. Right now, because he's trying to get us back, he is acting as if he's the best dad in the world and that he isn't drinking, and is a changed man. I know that if we were to go back, the nastiness would start again within a couple weeks. It just never stops. He has a trail of ex girlfriends who he also abused--I'm in contact with one of them, and she is the only person I can actually talk to who truly understands.

    @@lisamarieromeo6122 cognitive dissonance is when you experience tension from two different experiences: 1) I love that person 2) That person humiliates me. The tension and pain is very strong. In dissonance we try to minimize one of the two to make the experience bearable. like we use our mind to create excuses to forget one of the two. trauma bond is the emotional bond, when one gets emotionally attached to the person who causes the abuse. Consider this: '' First they are very seductive and kind, Then there are red flags. Then when the person starts to increase the abuse, its utterly confusing because they will alternate it with goodness, tenderness, kindness. That messes someone's brain. In behavioral experiments scientists would administer electrical shocks to mice, alternating them with positive rewarding stimulus-food. The more random the connection between the two, the more addicted the mice would become. They couldn't stop hitting the button. So this response of staying is a very addictive response. Not only one wants to experience that positive goodness they give, but its also an unconscious need for fairness, they need the person who hurt them the most to undo the damage. Add on this experiences with narcissistic parents. Lethal cocktail Deep breath for everyone, acknowledge the red flags for red flags. Acknowledge abuse for abuse. Be intellectually honest with yourself, dont make excuses. Leave. '' I hope that helps xx

    The only connection I can think of is that both are based on the perpetrator’s undue emphasis of his/her own thoughts/emotions. In narcissistic abuse, perpetrators usually expresses the attitude that everything centers around them. They may object to that description and even insist that they don’t believe that; but, their actions say otherwise. Virtually everything you do/don’t do gets tied back to the perpetrator as a person. You’re either doing something right b/c you’re smart, capable, etc., or you’re intentionally doing it wrong in order to hurt/anger the perpetrator in some way. You are also likely to be accused of doing it wrong, even if you’re doing it right-again b/c of the perpetrator’s thoughts/emotions. Toxic positivity is generally not perpetrated with the intention to hurt anyone, and most wouldn’t even recognize it as being toxic/hurtful; but, in most cases, the perpetrator is still oblivious to the effect it has on others, and to the value of that effect. Narcissism is a psychological disorder and, with few exceptions, abuse is perpetrated with the tangible intention of causing harm. In contrast, toxic positivity is a behavioral flaw that is essentially an extreme version of selfishness, based in denial, and is generally perpetrated with the intention of maintaining and creating happiness. Most people are selfish, in some way or another. Toxic positivity is a subtle expression of selfishness-so subtle that even the perpetrator may not realize why it’s wrong b/c, after all, s/he is only seeking to encourage/uplift people. This is where denial comes in. Most people struggle/suffer, at some point or another. I believe that most people are also aware that there are people who experience more pain than they are aware of from their own lives. Denial allows people to look at someone who reminds them of themselves and assume that they cannot be justified in their suffering b/c the observer is not suffering. Denial also allows people who have suffered to deny the significance of other people’s suffering b/c it is notably different from their own, or b/c they perceive it as being notably different. From here, there are 2 extremes: One is for them to be semi-consciously abusive-meaning that they are generally aware that their actions are hurtful; but, they rationalize it as being justified. The other is to perpetrate toxic positivity-in which they are completely unaware that their actions are hurtful and it’s difficult for them to identify why they would be.

    Every time I tried to leave he would convince me to stay. I would be packing my bags after he would try to manipulate me, and say leave if you want to leave. Then I would try and leave and then he would start acting acting all sweet and nice, like he was when we first met. Then of course a couple of days later he went back to the real him. He even told me once, that he behaves perfectly at the beginning and once he knows the girls in love with him then he just goes back to his old self. Cuz he knows he has her, he was sick. I wasted eight years of my life with him and now he's on to his next victim, and I'm free. I'm still dealing with the aftermath, so I'm physically free from him but emotionally I'm still working on it. I have a chronic illness since I was 15 years old, and he told me on many occasions that I wanted to be sick. He said I wanted to have all those surgeries. Then one time when I was in the emergency room he told me that I was a burden to my family and friends, and they were just waiting for me to die. He was truly a sick person.

    @@patriciaroy5013 you know about the cycle of violence? It's a documented standard way that the abuser behaves, abusing, then apologising & being all lovey-dovey before gradually - or even quickly - returning to their old behaviour, until once again they blow up like a bomb, & restart the whole cycle. That's one of the reasons why it can be so hard to make the decision to leave.

    It is you being baited by a person who acts like your Dream come true on many days, someone you have loved more deeply than anyone else. Yet slowly someone more insidious appears. This person slowly breaks you down mentally by projecting all their bad behaviour onto you. By taking away your human rights, ever so slowly at first, that you barely notice as it is disguised as partnership working together. Yet, it is only you making changes. Not being allowed to feel or have boundaries or reacting to their abuse. This is even a crime to them. The psychological damage seems small but it is emmence. All done by someone who cannot and will never take responsibility for their actions or even act decently. Their own justifications make no sense, but you are the one that is made to feel crazy. How can anything be learned if only one person can self-reflect? They have rules you must follow, yet they do not need to. You are made to feel so small and helpless to the dramas they make. To be made into a monster, just so they can cover-up their misdeads they know would be looked down on if anyone else knows of it. Doesn’t matter that you did absolutely nothing wrong to deserve it in the first place. They know they are wrong, they know exactly what they are doing. They only care for themselves. Remember that! Everything they are is a lie and a fabrication. Yet all this is punishment for being madly in love with a person who was only acting as a reflection of youself to start with. Everything you believe. What is right and what is wrong? Can only be crushed by them. The idea of justice becomes an illusion, just as they were. The word Love is defiled and you are mentally fragmented and confused. You are left in a self defeating loop of obsessive compulsive mental noise of poisonous self destruction. Imprisoned by their own congintive delusions they forcefully smothered you with. You have to experience it, the disgusting depravity of the personality disorder to be able to truly understand the damage they do. No one you have dated or lived with before comes even close to it. It doesn’t matter if you leave them or they leave you. You’re still damaged by them anyway. They are Soul destroying parasites! Moreover, People wonder why they end up hurt, seriously hurt, and even killed for their own actions. Cheating is a choice and there’s simply a lot of ignorance in the process.... Thank you so much for helping me out Metaspyhub@gmail. com. Your advice and services helped me so much. You are a lifesaver !!!

    Hi there,I just had to msg you after reading your post I’m in tears😢everything you say is so spot on. I left my ex 3year ago after 20years of marriage, i was a mess mentally and physically and I’m still under the MHAT(mental health access team)still on medication which I’ve been on for 11year with not much hope of getting off. I believed everything he said to me and forgave him on numerous occasions for the things he said and did and for the constant cheating, which I caught him out on a few occasions, to which he became extremely angry denied everything said I was going crazy, that he loved me so much, then turned the waterworks on, I ended up comforting him even though I knew it was true, because I loved him so much and I felt so upset for bringing it up and reducing him to tears.The fact is I only realised what had been happening when i was watching a KZread video about Toxic relationships, I had never heard of CNPD(covert narcissistic personality disorder) I have watched many videos about this, I just wish I had known about this a long time ago I would have left him for good, instead of repeatedly going back to him with his promises of everything being different and better, he was going to change, he couldn’t live without me, the love of his life, blah blah blah blah. Sorry for the long msg😅thank you so much i will be sending this to my family and friends who prefer to believe that it’s me who is at fault, why would I leave such a lovely caring,kind,considerate,funny,do anything for anyone,family orientated great with kids/step kids and animals person🤔They wouldn’t believe it if i were to even try to justify myself for leaving so I don’t say anything,just had to go no contact. My heart goes out to anyone who feels trapped in a relationship that’s just not working,think about your health and happiness. Bless you all❤😊XX

    You will be treated like gold for months. Everything is hot and heavy - you found the perfect partner who is attentive, affectionate and passionate. The first red flag is they keep sharing their own stories (non stop blabbing from their aide) and don’t seem to be too interested in what’s going on in your life. The convos always switch back to what’s going on with them. Suddenly there is a switch and they are indifferent. For NO reason. There was no argument, no fight - in fact, the night before might have been one of your best nights together. After that switch, they will never ever come back to normal. You will be faced with constant silent treatment. You will be walking on eggshells. The minute you corner them and ask them what the hell is going on - you will be stonewalled. They gain power this way. You will be CONFUSED af. You will do everything you can to have the “old” them back, because you don’t like this new version. What you need to realize is the “old” version never existed. It was a complete lie and act - learned from friends, movies etc. It was a character made just for you - it’s no surprise you had a lot in common and now suddenly you don’t. The person you fell in love with completely disappeared, they are ghost. It is absolutely heartbreaking and devastating. All you see is the same body without the same soul. The more frustrated they see you - the more the run and push you away because they don’t want you to see that it was all a mask. Affection is out the window at this point. They can barely kiss or hold hands, but when earlier you were on their lap 247. The real them came out and the mask is off - they hate any from of emotion or love because they are not capable of it. You will be faced with constant gaslighting and they will try to distort your reality so you don’t see them for who they really are. You need to run like the wind - this relationship only makes you destroyed. Their friends don’t know.. for the covert ones - only their romantic relationship partners can figure it out. Because they are so careful with their image, it’s all about perception management. And one day… after all the cognitive dissonance and sleepless nights and feeling sick to your stomach.. you open KZread and it’s a door to all your answers. You are well with a narcissistic psychopath that has no feelings. Leave and never look back. Additionally, Metaspyhub@gmail. com is a company that is ideal if you need to be able to confront a cheating spouse because they have some of the most advanced features in the industry.

    That was a great post. Your analysis of the narcissist is fantastic. I am a psych major and have been through three different relationships. It is very important to note that there are different kinds of narcissists. I thought I would never be in another relationship like this but because I didn't know the different forms of narcissism, I wasn't looking. I am now 53 years old, and I can say after struggling with the first one for 23 years, I walked right into another one that was more sophisticated and more dangerous than the first.

I spoke to him for 2 months in total and I have been recovering for 3 months and still don't feel myself. A completely unfair exchange as is the underlining point of all Narcissistic relationships. They will take, take, take until you have nothing left to give. It is a sickness of the soul and as wise, as my life experience allows me to be, I have no idea how, despite my intuitive warnings, I found myself in this place and feel so devalued and worthless as a result of this recent relationship. When I mentioned he could be arrogant and self-absorbed, he only confirmed that suspicion and revealed his Narcissism in full glory with extremely toxic behaviour and complete denial (nothing but projection and deflection)😔 I feel very sad for him (and my heart bizarrely, still longs for the person he portrayed himself to be, up until that point) but I ultimately feel, I had a very narrow escape and he would have destroyed all the healing in myself, I have worked so hard achieve🌠🙏🌠

At first they do see you recognise you your talents your gifts say they love and respect you and your mind beliefs etc - then they pull all of it apart slowly bit by bit and break you down chip by chip you feel smaller less seen not heard, gaslighted ghosted or stonewalled - then they apologise say they want to do something - and say and say - but DO NOTHING but keep perpetuating the avoidant crazy making abuse. I am hurting so much from this last trauma and after the last I swore no more narcs - they are just a magnet to our goodness - or our GODESSNESS I even wanted to call my last abuser my God after he said I was his Godess - My Goodness how the good want to believe that others will see our Godessness - Save your NESS for YOU the Next healthy healed aware relationship you create will hopefully be better... However yes you never know what people will do - you have to learn you can handle it and move on - that one thing I really have learned and loved in this movie!
