    the health problems I got from living with a narc was insane. lost weight, lost my period, lost soooo much hair, headaches all day everyday, ended up in the hospital twice, I got weird spots in my eyesight, all the while being told that I was being treated very well!!! run if you can, people. they're walking, talking demons who think they're kind good people...

      Isn't that crazy...I was being told the same ..& in my unwell, exhausted & confusion of being in the actual marriage at the time I couldn't quite put it into words as I didn't really know what narcissism is because my mother is also one & I was brought up believing I was the problem from very young & that I had to be selfless to my own needs & mainly that meant my boundaries & health & everything else.other wise it meant I was selfish,I got that from both of them but I couldn't work out what I was doing that was selfish.even if I tried to get a moment of rest because I wasn't getting any & needed it because I developed heart problems & other health conditions...I was being lazy...even though I did everything in & around the home.

    • @PassionateFlower
      @PassionateFlower ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Get a full panel nutritional blood test for all your vitamins and minerals. Narcissistic abuse is a trauma that stresses the body's reserves of nutrients. We burn through more nutrients when under stress especially trauma from things like abuse or neglect.
      It is very important to identify and correct any and all vitamin and mineral deficiencies.
      Get as much tested as your insurance will cover then pay out of pocket for additional tests if you can and keep retesting every few months after adding in the foods and supplements to help get your numbers in range.

    exactly. Then a spiritual friend said I am being negative calling them "demon", it is holding heaviness and causing me health issues. She said to keep blessing that demon anytime any hurt comes up. I cannot. It has started messing my healing. I was neutral. Wished him neither bad or good. But doing this blessing exercise is making me miss him again and make me wish that demonic druglike person to reach out to me. 😢 She is like they were this way due to their own experience. I said that does not give them the right to abuse anyone. She is highly spiritual and strict but this advice does not sit well with me.

    A long period of adrenal use by your brain you will be exhausted real quick, and you can get sick as a result. I finally left the AA group I was attending because they would not stop interfering with my life via slander, gossip and isolating me from everyone I talked to including both male and female. I had so few friends after a year of this I left to protect myself. After four months of being away from those people I'm starting to heal and changing the direction of my life. It is spiritual warfare and I'm convinced that the main girl spreading this stuff might have a demon. Everyone thinks she is so sweat, I think she is evil.

I needed to stand up at 5 o'clock in the morning and needed to join construction work. he has a own business. I needed to clean cook etc. I needed to watch movies on Netflix the whole evening and I needed to go bed at 8 o'clock in the evening. which i couldnt because i needed to wash etc.. and when I got to bed I couldnt sleep because of his neighbor's being very antisocial and hammering on the walls.
