Narcissism
Narcissism is a term that’s thrown around a lot lately. Am I a narcissist? How to deal with a narcissistic parent? And how to divorce a narcissist? are three questions that popped up right when I put narcissism in my google search bar! It’s everywhere!
And boy, I should know! At different times of my life I’ve been convinced different people in my life were narcissists. Which is why I am excited to bring you today’s podcast episode.
Being in relationship with someone with narcissism or with narcissistic traits is an incredibly difficult place to be. It’s often referred to as crazy making and is incredibly destabilizing for our mental and emotional health.
In fact, I went through many years of my life thinking I was the crazy one. The narcissist in my life convinced me, I was the one who needed to change. Luckily, I am now in a place where I support many people in seeing they are not crazy! It’s not you! I say whenever someone asks the question “am I the narcissist” that’s a 100% sign you’re not.
