Blanche & The Stalking Physically Abusive Narcissist - Domestic Violence, Narcissistic Abuse, Domestic Abuse
In this survivor story, Blanche shares her scary story of narcissistic abuse and stalking. Blanche began dating her abuser when she was 19 years old and feeling vulnerable. Her abuser swept in and at first made Blanche special, but he quickly became jealous and controlling. As soon as the abuse began, things moved so fast that Blanche didn't have time to think about what was happening. The emotional abuse turned into physical abuse, which then turned into a death threat and stalking. Through Blanche's eyes, we witness the insidious ways abuse can infiltrate and isolate, even as loved ones attempt to break through the barriers erected by her partner's manipulation. It's a story of vulnerability, healing abuse, coercive control, intimidation, death threats, stalking, putdowns, family enablers, smear campaigns, suicide threats, stalking, gaslighting, support, isolation, protection orders, embarrassment, shame, and escape plans. *** CONTENT WARNING - We discuss graphic descriptions of physical abuse, suicide threats, and death threats in this episode. *** If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please click here or send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@gmail.com To help out our podcast, please fill out our listener survey, click here.

Plausible Deniability and Manipulation in Narcissistic Abuse - Narcissist Apocalypse Q&A
Join us on Narcissist Apocalypse Q&A, as we unravel the complex abuse manipulation tactic known as plausible deniability. Through a thoughtful examination of its origins, we illustrate how abusers meticulously plan their actions to maintain deniability and avoid accountability. Explore the intricacies of plausible deniability, where the abuser's power of suggestion can lead victims down a path of altered behavior and eroded self-esteem, without ever making a direct demand. Learn how abusers craft comments and insinuations that push their partners to change, all while maintaining a facade of innocence. This conversation sheds light on the sophisticated psychological tactics abusers employ to keep their partners ensnared in a web of control.
