Seven challenges to overcoming narcissistic abuse

By Bridgette Morris

People suffering from narcissistic abuse may face various challenges when trying to move on from the relationship. Here are a few common stumbling blocks:

  1. Difficulty recognizing the abuse: Narcissistic abuse can be subtle and insidious, and victims may not realize they are being abused until they have been in the relationship for some time.

  2. Fear of the narcissist: Some victims may fear the narcissist's reaction if they try to leave the relationship, relationship and the relationship out of fear.

  3. Difficulty trusting others: Victims of NPD may have a difficulty trusting others in the future, due to the betayal and manipulation they experienced in their past relationships.

  4. Difficulty accepting reality: Narcissists often use manipulation tactics to control their victims, leaving them feeling confused and unsure of what to believe. It can be hard for the victim to come to terms with the reality of the situation.

  5. Difficulty breaking the attachment: Some victims may have feelings of attachment to the narcissist, despite the abuse they have suffered. This can make it difficult to leave the relationship.

  6. Difficulty healing: Narcissistic abuse can leave deep emotional wounds, and it can take time and professional help to heal from the trauma. Some victims may need to go through a grieving process before they can move on.

  7. Difficulty getting support: some victims may not be able to get help or may not want to share their experience with others, due to the shame or guilt they may feel.
