My partner is having cbt and has been doing yoga every day for a month. While he seems to be generally a bit less stressed, it has not had a noticeable effect on how he treats me or dd1. If anything he seems more self absorbed than he was before! There is a lot of a back story to this and I have posted about him before (will try and find a link) but I would really like to know if anyone has actually experienced someone who is a potential narcissist changing their character for the better.
Rightly or wrongly (probably wrongly) I decided to give him a chance to change his ways. Partly because I never gave my ex a chance to get therapy etc and he seems to be a lot better now, although he isn't a narc and it was a totally different situation. And also partly because I had no idea how I'd manage on my own.
Something that was said on one of the yoga videos really resonated with me, it's was regarding accepting yourself and others. I'm not sure if he has accepted or ever will accept who he is or who my daughter is (she's ASD). I know it's only been a month so I'm willing to wait longer to see results but I'm worried all this will be futile. He still upsets my daughter and quite frankly I'm bloody sick of it.
