They even try to isolate you after they discarded you
The isolation happened when his rude and cruel behavior "scared" my family members and friends and I stopped hearing from them. My adult son stopped visiting and I stopped wanting to expose my friends and family to him. I couldn't figure out why he didn't behave respectfully toward them or control his anger in front of them. I'm now reconnected to my "tribe" and it's such a relief. Thank you for your videos!
Truth can hurt us but isolation can be more severe.
That's exactly what they try to do!! They actually are isolating you from your own sense of self. A sense of abandonment, you feel a deep sense of self-betrayal.
This was exactly my ex (covert narc). I never realised it was a form of isolating me. He used to go out with his mates all the time. I went out one or twice a year with colleagues and I was guilt tripped or accused or having an affair. He wouldn't even let me go Xmas shopping on my own. Then when I made friends with another mum in the village he kept saying she was weird and crazy.
My covert narc mom isolated me from childhood so I didn't think it was a "problem" . I thought well too bad I have to recover all by myself. I can do this bc it's worth it.
The way narcissistic abuse is described is very similar to the way parasite or hermit krab lives. They are constantly looking for a host to hijack because they have no body of their own.
This is exactly how a culty church with a controlling preacher manipulated people, including me and my family. They use guilt and shame to convince you that you should be at the church and church functions all of the time. Literally at least five days a week. And doing things with anyone outside of the church was not OK and even sinful. To the point where they would say that it was disappointing to God. Interesting how gossip goes hand in hand with this behavior. So thankful to be out of that “church”.
Experienced that...
This absolutely happened to me.. I don’t think I realized how bad this was until I was out. He would monopolize my attention and time, he would tell me I have no friends and should go out but then anytime I actually would make plans a fight would happen either prior or after said plans. I would be so consumed with worry and anxiety while out I would stop making plans because it was easier to stay isolated with him than it was deal with all the anxiety that came with doing things without him. He would also make me feel like if I wasn’t around that was perfect opportunity for him to reach out to other supply while I wasn’t around. Absolutely sick!
Oh yes! That’s how it is. I’m still in the same house with him. But my mental health is improving slowly but the anxiety keeps you on edge and your mind so consumed it’s hard to breathe and live your own life just day to day
They say the most disgusting and disturbing things, then call it love....really???
This was so me. At first in the beginning when this was happening I confided in a friend many times to the point she would no longer talk to me. She told me that if that stuff is really going on then get out. She didn't understand and I didn't understand what was happening. I lost many friends in the beginning because I thought that me talking to my so called friends about what was going on was my fault in losing them by telling them what was happening. Later in the relationship ( 17 yrs) I had a moment where everything just made sense. I know I was being taken care of from above as my mind became clear and I felt the need to look up Narcissism, I had heard of it but didn't know what it was. Weird, but I knew that is what was going on. The more I researched it the more I knew he was a narc and I was in a bad relationship. And at the time in the months that proceeded before I left he was trying to isolate me from the few friends I had and one by one he would voice his opinion about someone and basically why I shouldn't be friends with them anymore. I pretty sure now that he had conversations with them before and after I left as they will not talk to me. I thankfully am now divorced and live in another state away from him and close to my family. Devil's minions they are, as in the end he showed me his true self and for as long as I live will never forget it. So evil....
I'm definitely addicted to the narcissist. Just have to keep knowing I'm better without them.
I used to feel lonely, but not because I didn't have many friends, but because I felt lonelier with him than I did without him. (I bought you Journal today Ben, it comes Tuesday this coming week. Can't wait!!) 🍒
I have lost all of my immediate family in tragedy...I lived with my little nephew after my brother died ..last yr. And his mummy. She met a narcissist...I'm no longer in their lives. The heartache of losing my little nephew is unbearable. Worse than all the deaths of my siblings...Narcissist are evil.
On my end not realizing until recently. I’d come home from work and he would start in on me. I was so emotionally drained I’d stay home and he’d go to my families gatherings with the kids without me. Every Birthday all the kids he would sabotage. Where I’d be emotionally disconnected from most the people that came. Eventually realizing I no long talked to a single one of my 7 brothers and sisters my mom my dad had no friends.
Has anyone else dealt with it in this manner as far as being isolated
Ooohhhhh yessss...you are not at all alone in dealing w/this and multitude of other issues..so truly understand your pain. I'm shocked still that for all I felt I understood abt this type of abuse; still unable to keep myself safe or to not be so effected. Its futile..I'm sorry for pain you too went/go thru. Sending hope your way
Totally been there. Done that.
Narcissists are predators, period.
Great intelligent 🧠 and reality and peaceful connection
We renovated a guest bathroom and for 5 years we had a toilet in the living room. Seriously. What I did was boring and stupid but he had to be right there all the time. He was very talented. We had dinner with someone I loved dearly and after I went to the restroom he was done with me and steaming. Three years later I’m still dead to him and don’t know how to tell him that I’m not a whatever. I guess I’ll just accept that everyone I love doesn’t want anything to do with me.
I have been told to choose a relationship with my daughter from a past marriage or keep my current marriage.
Yeah, that sounds very toxic. I hope you get free from that.
I stay in my relatives house , foreducatinal purpose , bcz i only have my mother and cant leve their house for sime years , butthey are doing the same since many years i stay here since i was 7 now i am 19 they not let me even single day to live on my own😢
he called my job and sends very mean messagues. :( his ex contacted me and we spoke a bit. I don't want to believe they are narc. as I don't know much about it. I was always very sheltered ( bit naive :) but some days stuck. I didn't reply. I won't do things hurtful.
Legit what happened
This is so true.
The narcissist isolated the victim to control them and because they can't ask for help and they can't love anyone but the narcissist if people experience this just run before it becomes to hard thank god that never happened to me because I overthinking everything 😂😂😂
Absolutely, isolation is a common tactic used by narcissists to maintain control. It’s great that you were able to recognize it and take action. For more insights on handling these situations, join our free masterclass: www.rawmotivations.com/masterclass
Wow brother so acurate to my experience,thank you for your videos
My mother is a covert narcissist and I don’t have a job right now there are many days my mother just simply leaves me alone at home completely alone for a whole day
Lived exactly this
This can happen in friendships too not just dating situations.
No one said it can’t.
I feel this in my soul
I am in an abusive relationship at the moment. When the pandemic happened, family took me in and I had a few places to stay. The girlfriend wants to me to be more independent and have my own place. The one that bothers me I wanted a vacation home in Florida, but she would always say are you going to be okay living on your own without family. I have not met her in person at all due to the pandemic and every time she brings it up it turns into an argument because she wants to meet me, yet I am very concerned that if i meet her in person, I will get mistreated in person whether its her holding intimacy hostage. She hates the fact I bring up the past stuff and thinks I am holding it against her when I compare and contrast and try to mend those wounds that she caused in the past. Idk what to do. She wants to meet me next month but wants me to pay for her room or wants me away from family and go to her.
I’m praying for my son to wake up.
He deleted all my stuff and blocked me out of my own accounts
Brother, thanks for all your hard work.
But pls get a good microphone! It’s almost impossible to listen to you when I commute to work. Full volume and still can’t hear you 😕
Sorry about that
