Overcoming Trauma and exposure to narcissistic people

​10 tips to overcome trauma imposed by narcissistic abuse:

1 

Take time and listen to your inner thoughts that create doubt about behaviors and words presented by those that continue to cause hurt and pain.

2 

If they cause you trauma and hurt, it is time to set boundaries.  What does that look like for you? It may be as simple as going no-contact or reducing contact.

3 

Journal. Start writing down your thoughts and feelings frequently.  If you notice a negative pattern, then it may be time to draft a solution.

4

Listen to those around you that have your best interest at heart.  If different people are commenting on the same things, it’s time to take positive actions.

5

Once you notice a pattern of misbehaving, please call the person out on their actions .  Please note - narcissists are very crafty and are not approachable when it comes to taking accountability.

6 

Set your boundaries. You may remind the abuser a couple of times of boundaries they are crossing. If they are continuing to ignore the boundaries set, you may have to wish them a farewell.

7

If you have children that have been exposed to the disturbing behaviors, listen to their concerns .  You may want to consider reaching out for resources and support.

8 

Avoid being sucked into the negative feedback you may get from those that do not understand the cycle of abuse.  Move on to positive supports.

Sometimes it calls for extreme actions beyond going no-contact .  You may have to change phone numbers and relocate.  Avoid being consumed with cost because after all what price are you paying to be robbed of your Peace Of Mind?

10

Avoid the negative self-sabotage thinking. “I am so stupid.” ;  “How gullible did I have to be?”  or “ I deserve this.”  Counteract those thoughts with loving thoughts about yourself.

We all have things to overcome and work on.  Do not let society dictate your life path, and don’t give up!
