Unacceptable Abuse

"When a toxic person can no longer control you,

they will try to control how others see you."

Jill Blakeway

Dealing with a narcissist requires strength and clarity.  He or she will whittle away at  our confidence, value, and respect, heightening feelings of shame and unworthiness.  It does not help that a narcisstic personality can be charming and seemingly loving.

The toxic personality does not have empathy for others, requires high levels of attention, and an has an inflated sense of importance. They appear confident, but in reality can not tolerate constructive criticism.  They are hurtful by damaging our own mental health.

A person in relationship with a narcissistic uses extreme energy to withstand the toxicity.    The toxic personality can also attack our credibility with others.  It is imperative to maintain clarity of personal value, seek help, and recognize this behavior as unacceptable abuse.
