Dealing with a narcissist? Come over here for some support.

[fluffynotebook]

I just wanted to make this thread as a bit of help and support for anyone who’s dealing with a narcissist.
I’ve just come out of a covert narcissist friendship and struggle to find any support groups so leaving this here for anyone who feels they need it.

Hi all, I havent got children with my ex and certainly won't have to endure some of the horrendous things you've been through.. But I am really struggling.. I'm not even sure mines a narc.. My heads so messed up. Some would say that's enough to be done but it's hard.. I still live him.. I know I could claw it back tomorrow but his projecting ways of everything HE does wrong is awful.. The silent treatment too is mentally draining.
Just wanted to rant sorry, it's a horrible time

@heom45 "narc" is just another word for complete arsehole, as another poster said on another thread recently. It doesn't matter whether they actually have a personality disorder, it matters that they are causing you distress. If you don't have kids together just fuck him off. Life's too short for all their drama.

It takes me a couple of hours every morning to get in a good place to face the day, knowing I still have to deal with this person because we have kids. Hoping therapy will resolve it.

Alys thanks for your post.
I do get it and I do know what it involves from a past relationship. What I struggle with is getting my head around how he behaves.
Great relationship until I mention a negative to do with him and he sulks.. Not only that does he deflect it all back onto me..he even ppints out he's not deflecting.. Right before he does.
It's soul destroying.

One thing I wondered if anyone can help with.... how do you get over the fear? Every time I think I'm going to see her I feel sick with nerves and my heart feels like it's going to burst out my chest. How do you get over that?
