Definitely no joke. The mental game and mental abuse/violence is very hard to deal with. But when one wakes up to see what's going on, and heals from it. It's so wonderful on the other side. Sending you love ! ❤🌸❤

I found that all the narcissists in my life, not only gaslight, but they throw energetic bombs. If they are caught in a lie or caught in a corner, they throw a huge energetic bomb to divert the pain and confusion. ( They are great at false flag events!) I have been the target of these bombs many times. Why? Because we hold so much light and it disturbs them. The thing I eventually learned, is although these bombs are devastating to our emotional and energetic well being, they don’t have to be. Just like whenever someone throws something at you, it catches you off guard. You try to catch it, but do you want to catch a bomb? NO!!!! They want you engaged. They want to knock you off your balance point. That’s the purpose of throwing the bomb! They want to take you down with them. So, I learned to not touch it. Don’t pick it up. Don’t own it in any way. That’s their toxic energy and it has nothing to do with me. So, I observe it for what it is and I leave it. I don’t internalize it. If I slip up and reactively engage, once I realize what happened, I cleanse myself of all energy that is not mine, reset my boundaries, gently put the bomb down and disengage, unplugging my energetic connection to the person. It works really well. Now, from a higher perspective, these people are teaching us boundaries. As an empath and energy worker, I had terrible boundaries. I wanted to help everyone, feel everyone. Lesson learned by my spiritual partners - the narcissists. For that I am grateful, even though I’m a bit war torn and beat up. I arrived at my destination. So, calling all narcissists- further missions are not necessary. I learned the lesson. Move on 😁 I remembered how to play this game. 💝

Truer words were never spoken. I have a book that helped me to understand it. I read it long after i got away from it. The effects do linger 😢 I gained such clarity & understanding. Go protect yourself because there isn’t much else you can do once You know what your dealing with. Book 👇

Narcissism
Denial of the True Self
by Alexander Lowen, M.D.

There are two types of narcissists: overt and covert.

The overt ones are the people that come to mind when we think of the word “narcissist”. They are grandiose, often openly rude and their need for attention is obvious.

The covert ones are much more difficult to recognize and to deal with. On the surface they seem nice. Many people will think they are wonderful, but their targets are tortured with a cruel form of abuse and because many don’t believe them when they try to articulate what is happening, it adds to the gaslighting effect.

Understanding this difference is very important. It’s also important to realize that many people do not understand what a narcissist actually is and they certainly don’t understand the covert form. It takes experience and/or research to truly get it.

So, don’t be surprised when people who may be trying to help advise you to just work it out with the narcissist or give you helpful advice that’s just not really very helpful.
I learned to keep my mouth shut about it long ago unless I knew the person was actually familiar with the issue.

Just thought someone might need to hear it 💕

Lots of great conversation going on in the chat.
If anyone is dealing with narcissistic abuse, please know you’re not alone.
Holy moly it’s a freaking epidemic!
Kinda makes sense tho.
The world is a vampire and all. 😂
