Struggling with Self-Destruction: My Battle with Suicidal Ideations and the Impulse to End My Life

Struggling with Self-Destruction: My Battle with Suicidal Ideations and the Impulse to End My Life



The aftermath of severe narcissistic abuse and Complex PTSD (CPTSD) has left me grappling with intense self-destructive behaviors and persistent suicidal ideations. These challenges are a stark reminder of the deep impact that trauma can have on one’s life.


One significant issue is my engagement in behaviors that feel uncharacteristic of who I am. The trauma from the abuse often leads me to act in ways that seem foreign to my true self. These actions are driven by an overwhelming sense of despair and confusion, reflecting the deep wounds inflicted by the abuse.


A particularly dangerous aspect of my struggle is the tendency to stop taking my essential medication. This medication is crucial for maintaining my health When I neglect or discontinue it, it is not a mere lapse but a manifestation of my intense inner turmoil. This behavior can inadvertently lead to severe consequences, including a potential life-threatening crisis. It often feels like a last-ditch effort to end my suffering, despite my conscious desire to live.


I have faced nine suicide attempts, each marking a moment of acute pain and a desperate search for relief. The persistence of suicidal thoughts is a testament to the profound impact of narcissistic abuse and CPTSD. Even though I strive to find hope and meaning, the feelings of hopelessness and despair remain a constant challenge.


My determination to keep going is fueled by a combination of stubbornness and the love I have for my mother. The thought of my abuser finding satisfaction in my death drives me to keep fighting. Additionally, the presence of my mother acts as a powerful motivator to stay alive, as I am deeply aware of the pain my actions would cause her.


Acknowledging these struggles is vital for understanding the severe impact of narcissistic abuse and CPTSD. The patterns of self-destructive behavior, including the dangerous impulse to stop taking essential medication, highlight the intense emotional and psychological toll of trauma. If you are facing similar challenges, know that you are not alone. Sharing these experiences can provide support and validation as we navigate the complex journey of healing and survival.

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...
