Be cautious of those who bounce back from everything meant to destroy them. They're watched over by the universe & their ancestors Messing with them could bring heavy karma, as they are divinely protected & not meant to be underestimated or played with ~Unknown~

Narcissistic abuse can turn you into someone you don't even recognize. I went from an award winning gymnast, a straight A student & an advanced ballerina to a completely screwed up individual. I completely lost my way. I'm still finding my way back. These people are dangerous.

When you grow up in a narcissistic family, you aren't prepared for adulthood & don't leave the family in a supported, healthy way. You're lucky if escape the family & when you do you're generally lacking adult life skills that were never taught... so you have to teach yourself.

Trauma survivors often get in the habit of spending time alone because alone is safe, relatively anyway. Alone is controllable. We understand alone. We don't have to stress about alone. People are unpredictable. When we're alone, there's less risk to manage. ~Dr Glenn Doyle~

An abuser will say their victim has mental health issues, when the abuser actually caused their mental health issues through abuse. This is part of a strategy, so no one will believe the victim... since they have "mental health issues." #NarcAbuse 🚫

When you've been abused or betrayed by family, especially immediate family, it becomes almost impossible to trust again. Tread lightly with these survivors. Their walls are high. It's a privilege to be let in. Anyone who re-traumatizes a survivor of this, is pure evil.

Once an empath develops a strong sense of self & educates themselves on narcissism, they become masters at identifying narcissists It's an immediate physical reaction. Our spidey senses go off. We get that sick feeling of past experiences & a strong boundary naturally pops up

If you grew up in an abusive narcissistic household, you most likely grew up with no good role models to teach you basic life skills. So you had to teach yourself as an adult. Be easy on yourself for mistakes you've made & give yourself credit for how far you've come. 🌷

Many times victims of long term abuse get diagnosed with having psychological problems... When, in fact, if they were never abused, they would never have had any mental issues. Abuse can change the chemistry of the brain & affect the nervous system, robbing victims yet again.
