Codependency and Narcissistic Abuse Recovery

2403282779Restore What Was Lost after Narcissistic Abuse

Maybe you’ve recently discovered, or have known for years, that you are in a relationship with a classical (overt or grandiose) narcissist.

You are becoming familiar with the rage that can be triggered when you try to assert yourself or correct your partner (or former partner, family member, or friend).

You’re tired of constantly “walking on eggshells” around the narcissist, holding back your authentic wants and needs, and feeling the emotional exhaustion that comes from not having your needs met.

There is a way to heal these wounds.

Classical and Covert Narcissistic Abuse

The terms narcissism and gaslighting have become part of mainstream culture due to their prevalence across modern relationships.

Thankfully, an abundance of online resources are supporting individuals in identification of and exit from relationships with narcissistic others.

Most individuals are aware of the “classical” or overt narcissist who dominates and controls others with his or her grandiosity or aggression. Few individuals are aware of the lesser-known “covert” or hidden narcissist who manipulates and controls by playing the victim. Therapy will support a thorough understanding of each type and how to avoid relationships with them.

Narcissistic Abuse Leaves Survivors Feeling Exhausted, Empty, and Confused

If you have experienced emotional abuse from a narcissistic parent while you were a child or a narcissistic partner as an adult, you know the pain it can cause.

Often, narcissistic abuse can leave a person feeling “empty” or like a shell of their former self. Depleted, confused, guilt-ridden, it is hard to know where to go for answers from a point that low.

Whether your abuse was from a classical or covert narcissist, therapy can help direct the recovery process.
