Victims Often Join the Abuse Themselves

Victims Often Join the Abuse Themselves

Not only do victims of covert narcissistic abuse not see the abuse, they often join the abuser in abusing themselves. It’s the perfect storm built by this abuser in your life. Their circular conversations, projection, blame shifting, guilt manipulating, and many other tactics leave you, the victim, in complete confusion.

You accept the projecting, blaming and guilting. You defend yourself but the circular conversations convince you that you are wrong. Ultimately, you decide that maybe you are the problem. You blame yourself. You make it all your fault. You do everything you can to fix it.

You hold yourself to unreasonable standards and expectations. While the covert narcissist in your life sits and watches.

You are brainwashed into hating yourself. You squash your own self-esteem without even realizing what is going on.

The self-abuse must stop! You do deserve the help and support! You are worthy of your own love and care.
