Narcissism Recovery Podcast

BPD, or Borderline Personality Disorder, is characterized by a pervasive fear of abandonment and extreme emotional dysregulation. Those suffering from this disorder may act clingy and loving in one moment and then rage out in the next moment at any slight of perceived fear of abandoned by friends, partners, and family members. The inability to feel safe and calm the extreme efflux of emotions makes being in a relationship with a BPD can be exhausting and potentially lethal. Those suffering from BPD will need to face their inner abandonment issues and work through the wounds of childhood.

The Narcissist's Double Life

Narcissistic abusers are notorious for blaming their victims for everything that goes wrong in the relationship. Narcissistic Blame-shifting is an abuse technique that forces accountability off the true cause and has victims looking within for the source of the relationship issues. In turn, victims are left feeling guilting and shameful with no real idea as to how to resolve it. Have a listen as I discuss how this occurs in an abusive relationship.

In todays episode I discuss the difference between true and fake love and what it means within relationships.

Fake & Toxic Love Vs True & Healthy Love

Narcissistic Supply is what narcissists’ need to fuel and keep in place their false self and fake world. This can come in many forms and is extracted from unknowing victims in the form of love, money, sex, attention, adoration, and anything that allows for the lie of the false self to be supported and reflected back as real. When the Supply is taken away as in the case of when abusers walk away, the narcissist is left with nothing but their true inner shame and humiliation from an abused past.
