Episode 6: What Does Narcisstic Abuse Feel Like

Many people have no idea that they're being manipulated, groomed and abused by someone high on the narcissistic spectrum. Sometimes, it takes years - or decades - before they realise. Why wait that long? In this episode, we talk about narcissistic abuse: what it looks like, how it feels and what you can do about it. We explore gaslighting and confusion, the idealise/devalue/discard cycle, triangulation and isolation, and gifts that take away your power and leave you feeling confused and frustrated. And we take a few tangents too. Trigger warning: we discuss different forms of abuse and manipulation in this podcast. If you may be triggered by these topics, please make sure you have support or resources in place before you listen. The opinions we express here are based on subjective personal experience. You can also expect a bit of swearing. Email us at pastimperfectpodcast@gmail.com with comments and questions.
