Stages of Healing from a Toxic Relationship with a Narcissist: Truth of Narcissistic Abuse Recovery
Discover. Understand. Overcome. It's how smart people change their lives! Subscribe to my channel: vid.io/xoJJ
Today at QueenBeeing.com, I'm sharing the most important steps to healing from a relationship with a narcissist - and I'm offering validation and support for people who have recently found themselves single afterr a toxic relationship.
Does this describe you?
So you've made the choice to end your relationship with a narcissist. Or maybe the choice was made for you. Your version of yourself or a narcissistsI want to tell you to feel amazing about that right now. But first, let me tell you this - I know it hurts. And that's okay; it's going to get better. I promise you.
However the relationship ended, you're working on recovery from the narcissistic abuse you've been suffering.
From gaslighting to playing the victim to flying monkeys and beyond, narcissists know only one thing: they want what they want when they want it, and nothing else will do.
People who have not experienced the hell of narcissistic abuse in a toxic relationship have absolutely no idea how incredibly it takes over everything in your life.
Before you know it, you are literally putting every single word you say and choice you make through the "narc filter," which is your understanding of what will and will not upset the narcissist.
What advice would you give someone who is doing what you did (or plan to do)?
Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments section - your comment could literally save the life of a fellow narcissistic abuse survivor.

Why do narcissists cross all your boundaries? Setting Boundaries With a Narcissist
One of the most difficult aspects of being tangled in a narcissist's web is learning to set firm boundaries with them. Narcissists typically have poor boundaries themselves; they like to win and maintain power, and they don't like others setting boundaries on them. They even feel above the boundaries of the law -- they don't follow court orders and they find personal boundaries easy to violate.
If you're in a relationship with a toxic narcissist, or have ever been in one, you might have a few boundary issues, am I right?
Have you ever thought about the boundaries you had for yourself and your life before you met the narcissist versus the ones you have now, or that you had during the relationship?
Wait. Before you answer that, let me clarify something.
I'm not talking about the fun or silly "I'll never wear bell bottoms" kind of boundary here (had it, crossed it, can't wait to do it again, y'all).
I'm talking about the serious, intrinsic, deep down in your gut, "gotta stick to it or your tummy will hurt" kind of boundary.
So, let me ask you - have your basic personal standards changed (or been altered) as a result of a relationship with a toxic narcissist?

Signs You're Being Gaslighted - with Angie Atkinson and Lise Colucci - What is gaslighting? Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which the abuser attempts to sow self-doubt and confusion in the victim’s mind. Typically, gaslighters are seeking to gain power and control over the other person by distorting reality and forcing them to question their own judgment and intuition.
If you have ever felt confused about whether or not your memory is accurate, if you have ever been accused of doing things that you know you did not do, or if someone has made it hard for you to trust your own thoughts, feelings and beliefs—then you might be experiencing gaslighting. In this video, Angie and Lise share signs of gaslighting.

Why Do Narcissists Downplay Your Worth? This is your answer. Narcissists downplay your worth and highlight their own accomplishments, in part because they want to keep you feeling inferior and that's how they know they are above you.
Do you sometimes feel that when narcissists do compliment you or praise you it is not genuine? Well, you are right. It isn't. As a matter of fact; narcissists downplay the worth of those who they wish gain favor with.

Narcissistic Triangulation: Narcs of Our Lives (Grownup Mean Girls Edition)
QueenBeeing goes primetime! It's time for another episode of Narcs of Our Lives - and this time there's a "Mean Girls" spin on it that Tina Fey might even enjoy - after she made fun of the bad voice-overs, that is.
But all animation (and joking) aside - the core message of this video is real - narcissists are so good at using flying monkeys - and they can even triangulate two friends in the blink of an eye.
In this video, I'll offer up a real-life situation in which one woman triangulates two others from the office. Ever been stuck in the middle of an argument between two people? If so, you know exactly how gut-wrenching it can be for all involved.
There are times when a well-placed nugget of wisdom can literally fix a problem someone's having with another person.
That's when it helps to offer insight and advice when you see what could help (as is often the case when you're connected but not directly involved, a third party perspective can often be useful).
But sometimes, especially with smart, stubborn people like narcissists, you have to stay out of a situation and let people deal with it on their own.
See, in general, most narcissists just aren't receptive to advice unless they choose to be.
You might say they work on pure energy and emotion, so when the energy and emotion aren't entirely positive, they cannot focus on what's really happening and everything becomes clouded, distorting their thoughts and sense of being present.
Their every interaction becomes tinged by the negativity and they begin to see it spill into other parts of their lives - most notably, their relationships.
So if you push them to fix their issues, you'll simply become part of that negative energy they feel and they'll direct it to you as well.
And you know what happens then? Triangulation - the narcissist begins to play you and the other person off each other and then it gets even worse: you become a source of narcissistic supply.

How do you know you're ready to date again after abuse?
First, you need to feel healed enough to not compare the people you're dating to the narcissist - at least not to the "good parts" of the narcissist. It's so easy to focus on what you loved about the narcissist after spending time apart. So often, when survivors meet a "normal" person, they feel like the relationship isn't quite as exciting or interesting as it was with the narcissist. That's because a "normal" person doesn't always do the extreme highs and lows that a narcissist does, and because our dopamine receptors are sort of broken when we've been abused.
So you need to feel strong enough to recognize that and make up for it with intentional thought management.
You need to have taken the time to grieve the relationship appropriately - and in most cases, that will take 3 months to a year, depending on the person.
