Understanding Narcissistic Abuse
Narcissistic abuse is a calculated form of emotional and psychological manipulation. It creates confusion, isolation, and self-doubt, especially when the abuser appears charming to everyone else. One of the most powerful tools in healing is language. When we have the words for what happened, clarity returns and recovery can begin.
You are not alone. You are not crazy. Healing is possible.
