Narcissistic Love is Nothing But an Addiction That Seems Impossible to Escape
It needs to be treated like any other addiction.
While you’re researching therapists to help you cope, they are out fucking someone “playing” house already and blaming you! You are now that abusive ex they told you about! Remember how sorry you felt for this poor manipulative prick that was so abused? Remember how they told you they were abused? They were projecting; they are the abusive ones!
It’s how they roll
You handle it by accepting you have an addiction similar to cocaine or opiate addiction. Yea, the withdrawal from a Narcissist, triggers the same part of the brain as withdrawal from drugs. It’s brutal shit.
It’s tough to keep remembering all the bad, but you have to force yourself to do it by making a list. I know it’s easier said than done. But a list of all the mean shit they do. That’s who they truly are, no matter WHAT they tell you. And when they come back around, you have to remember what you are playing with here; it’s a level of manipulation you will never understand or fix.
Every good thing they have said to you, you know, the stuff they said they never told anyone but YOU? They tell everyone else the same thing. You aren’t the first to hear how great…
