Synopsis

Still struggling from the effects of a narcissistic or psychopathically abusive relationship?

DO THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS SOUND FAMILIAR?

- Feelings of helplessness and despair

- A desire to self isolate

- Feeling desperately misunderstood

- Overwhelming feelings of loss and grief

- Extreme bouts of rage

- An inability to be comfortable with yourself

- Strange dreams

- Extreme weight loss or weight gain

- Uncharacteristic jealousy/ insecurity

- Feeling like you don't know the difference between right and wrong

- Extreme paranoia (being turned into an obsessive detective)

Covert Narcissists dangle their vulnerability in front of you as bait, just waiting for your good nurturing mothering/fathering instincts to kick in and rescue the poor little lost child they are presenting to you.

But beneath the mask of a shy, vulnerable and "good person" something far more sinister lurks.

And this what makes covert narcissism so damaging and dangerous: the nature of the disorder is such that you are brainwashed into thinking you are dealing with a human being with a morality, perhaps even a "pillar of the community".
