Narcissist? Sociopath? Something Else? You Are NOT Crazy!
Does your relationship leave you feeling confused? Do they threaten to be dating others but then say they were joking? Does the person you are dating seem possessive but say they are protecting you? Do you find yourself googling their behavior in an attempt to understand what's going on?
Narcissists will commonly blame you for something they’re doing. This is a huge red flag, so if out of the blue and with absolutely no evidence, you are accused of something you know you are not doing, rest assured that your Narcissist is attempting to justify and reconcile their own horrific behavior.
“If she’s doing it then so can I,” they will tell themselves, even though they know you’re not doing anything. It allows them to deflect responsibility back to you, making sure that they keep none for themselves and at the same time it keeps you off balance. It has an important purpose, which is take you off of offense and put you on the defensive, so that you’ll think twice about accusing them again in the future.
They're constantly on someone else's social medias and they want you to "catch them" almost. It keeps your mind filling in the blanks, making you act nuts. It’s meant to erode your self-esteem and keep you feeling insecure.
Do you hear things like, "You don't know what you're talking about?" ... They mix lies with the truth, blame those closest to them and attempt to convince their nearest and dearest that there is something wrong with you not them. The more confused you are, the more in control they feel.
If you find yourself relating to anything here, start paddling for the shore, because you're about to hit "sh$t Creek without your paddle."
I promise you once you’re away from the toxicity you’ll realize just how ‘not crazy’ you really are.
DON'T LOSE YOURSELF IN THEIR MADNESS!!!
Once you do, it is very hard getting yourself back, although you can do it.
