You’re survival rate is 100%


In life, there are days when waking up feels like an insurmountable challenge. Days when the weight of the world bears down, suffocating hope and drowning dreams. Days when it seems easier to give up than to keep fighting. But in those moments of despair, it’s crucial to remember one undeniable truth: your survival rate is 100%. 


Think about it. For every day you woke up and doubted your ability to endure, for every moment you felt like throwing in the towel, you’re still here. Despite the setbacks, the heartbreaks, and the trials, you’re standing tall. Each morning you greeted, uncertain of what the day would bring, you faced adversity head-on. And you made it through.

Perhaps you lost a job, a friend, or even a home along the way. Maybe you endured abuse or faced homelessness. These experiences tested your resolve, pushing you to the brink of despair. Yet, through it all, you persevered. You found the strength to keep going when it felt like the world was against you.

It’s easy to overlook our own resilience, to underestimate the power within us to overcome obstacles. But the fact that you’re reading this now is proof of your strength. You are a survivor. You’ve weathered storms that would have broken others, and you’ve emerged stronger for it.

Survival isn’t just about making it through the day; it’s about thriving in the face of adversity. It’s about finding hope in the darkest of moments and refusing to let despair win. It’s about recognizing your worth and refusing to settle for anything less than you deserve. So, the next time you find yourself doubting your ability to make it through another day, remember this: your survival rate is 100%.

You’ve faced challenges that would have defeated others, and yet you’re still here, standing tall. You are resilient. You are strong. And you have what it takes to conquer whatever life throws your way.

Toxic traits of covert narcissists

 Welcome to the Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Community Blog and Podcast. Today, we delve into a critical topic that affects many people: the toxic behaviors of covert narcissists. Covert narcissists are often more challenging to identify than their overt counterparts because they hide their narcissism behind a façade of concern and care. This concealment makes their toxic behaviors particularly insidious. Understanding these behaviors is essential for recognizing and protecting yourself from their harmful effects. The first toxic behavior of covert narcissists is hiding and concealing their true identity. They present themselves as caring and concerned individuals, but this is merely a manipulation tactic. Their apparent concern often feels phony or forced. Many targets of narcissists are empaths, who can detect this lack of genuineness through gut instincts and intuition. If you feel that something about their concern is off, it’s likely because it is. Recognizing this false concer...

Why do narcissist’s discard their partners

Narcissists discard their partners cruelly due to several psychological factors rooted in their personality disorder. Understanding these factors can shed light on their behavior and provide some clarity for those who have experienced such treatment. Lack of empathy is one of the defining traits of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). Narcissists often struggle to understand or care about the feelings of others. This makes it easy for them to discard partners without considering the emotional pain they cause. Objectification of partners is another common behavior. Narcissists typically view their partners not as individuals with their own needs and emotions but as objects that serve a purpose. When a partner no longer fulfills the narcissist’s needs—whether it be admiration, validation, or control—they are seen as disposable. Narcissists have a strong need for control. Discarding a partner cruelly can be a way for the narcissist to assert dominance and control. By leaving in a hars...

The concept of the false self is central in understanding NPD

  The concept of the false self is central to understanding Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). Narcissists create a persona that projects an image of perfection, superiority, and invulnerability. This false self is a carefully constructed facade designed to hide their deep-seated insecurities and vulnerabilities. By examining why narcissists develop this false self and its implications, we can better understand their behavior and the challenges in dealing with them. At the core of NPD lies a profound sense of inadequacy and unworthiness. From an early age, many narcissists experience emotional neglect, criticism, or unrealistic expectations from caregivers. These experiences can create an inner void, leading to a fragile self-esteem that is highly sensitive to any form of criticism or failure. To cope with these feelings, narcissists develop a false self that presents an idealized version of who they wish to be. The false self is characterized by grandiosity, entitlement, and...
