Passive Aggressive Sarcasm Narcissists keep an arsenal of tools in their back pocket. One of them is “sarcasm” & the lie that they are “just joking.” Sarcasm is defined as saying things that mean …

My ex used to take nasty jabs at me. He called it sarcasm, I called it abusive. Today I learned all about Passive Aggressive Sarcasm & I wanted to share what I learned with you. #sarcasm #abuse #gaslighting #narcissist #passiveaggressive

Things Narcissists Say To Avoid Accountability If you’re here, you know the sad truth. The narcissist’s in my life (yep, I’ve had 2. A Mother & an Ex) have never taken accountability for their actions. Everything is always…

Talking to fellow survivors, it seems Narcissists like to use the same excuses over & over to avoid accountability. These are the lines I personally heard the most. What are yours?

The narcissist who says, “I deserve unconditional love, someone who supports me in everything I do, guards my heart & cares about my feelings.”

Uh huh. You had that, smashed it to pieces & threw it away. What are you gonna do to the next one?

Do you get anxiety over stuff like this? Have you experienced abuse in any form? It’s always something we keep private, hidden. Not something we announce to the world🥺

Shared Part 3 today of my Surviving Abuse series & typed up/posted Part 4 to my blog.

Not gonna lie, Im so anxious. This series has been my heart & soul on a plate. From the images, to the writing, to the vulnerability Ive never had the courage to share before. I wonder if it’ll make a difference?

A friend told me that I should write a book about my experiences. I have seen other ppl do the same, but Im really hesitant. I cant even work up a solid following on social media. Who would read my book? Lol Would anyone really care? But what if it helped someone, saved someone, just one? 🤔💭🫶

Do you ever revisit a conversation you had over and over, wishing you could have said something differently? Wishing you stood up for yourself, pointed things out that you forgot to say or wishing you never spoke at all?

I find myself constantly replaying convos in my head that I can never change.

My mother is/was raised by a narcissist & it damaged her. She has no selfesteem & to admit the damage shes caused me, it would break her. But she was never & will never be the mom I needed her to be. She will always hurt me in order to fulfill her own wants. And Ive had to find acceptance with that.

Does anyone else have family that sweep the painful things they’ve done under the rug? They tell you to “let it go” bc they are the ones that caused the pain, not IN pain. They act like nothing ever happened & expect you to do the same…and you just cant😔

Mental Health After Trauma Today, my blog officially went public & it’s such a surreal feeling. Will anyone respond to it? Will people take something away from it? Will it disappear into the ether never to be seen …

New post! A brief discussion on how trauma effects me/us day to day.

Have you ever experienced Dark Days? Second guess yourself a lot? Need time alone?

What inspires you & pulls you out of it?

Anger & darkness in every genuine post, hidden among the lies. Yet, she ignores it, in hopes she can save him?

I pray for her. I do, bc I know all the secrets he hides and I know how well he hides them. #narcissist #narcissiticabuse #lie #liar #lies #gaslighting #fake #abuse #domesticviolence

Yet, under the mask lies the big, bad wolf. A predator waiting to crush her and feel powerful bc he had the ability to break her. Already, he laughs as he hurts her.

So often, we miss the signs. One glance at my ex’s social media will show you they have come completely unhinged...

Friends, I have to admit, it made me fear for this young woman. It made my heart break to think about her. She seems so eager for love in her life & here comes this man saying all the right things. She thinks she finally found someone for her. Her person.

Recently, it was brought to my attention that my ex is grandstanding on social media. Meaning, they are trying to appear to be someone they are not. They are trying to appear honest, compassionate, caring, God fearing & anything else their latest conquest would want. 👇 #narcissist

Those of us who have suffered trauma have no problem with that, right?

But some are so quick to jump into love because their hearts are radiant & full. Be careful, lovebirds. A trickster can only fool you for so long. Be vigilant🔎
