My partner has NPD and when he drinks he is very unpleasant and abusive to me. I don't drink. I am plotting my escape but I can't get out for a year or so due to financial reasons. Most non drinking days I can manage fine but his drinking days are awful. Today is a drinking day. Tonight he is emotionally abusive.
I can't go anywhere due to commitments at home, so I have to stay home.
Anyone got any suggestions how to get through the bad days. I already keep out of his way, go to bed etc (which I get more abuse for), avoiid him etc.
I don't have a big circle of friends (he has seen to that, being a narc),
and my family are not local & don't know the nightmare I am in anyway.
Coping strategies anyone? TiA
