SURVIVOR STORIES “I Died. And Came Back to Tell the Truth

 SURVIVOR STORIES



“I Died. And Came Back to Tell the Truth.”

Submitted to the Heal Loudly Movement. Name changed for privacy.


In 2021, she met a man on a dating app charming, attentive, magnetic. The kind that sweeps you off your feet and makes the whole world feel like a movie.


It felt like fate.


She followed love from Denmark to Cyprus, and finally to Nigeria, where they married. It should have been a fairytale. But like so many survivors of narcissistic abuse, what she thought was love quickly unraveled into something much darker.


When they returned to Denmark, everything changed.


Behind closed doors, the mask fell.

What followed was a descent into deceit, manipulation, and psychological abuse.

What she once called romance became control.

What looked like love became a slow, calculated undoing of her identity.


 “I lost myself. I couldn’t see a way out.”


The emotional damage was catastrophic. The gaslighting was relentless. She was isolated from her support system. Her reality was twisted beyond recognition. The pain built up until it swallowed everything including her will to live.


Then came the suicide attempt.


This wasn’t a cry for help. This was her body giving up because her spirit had been broken.


She was clinically dead for several minutes.

Dead.

Until doctors revived her and pulled her back.


“I died. But I came back. And now I’m telling the truth.”


This is what narcissistic abuse does.

It doesn’t just ruin reputations or cause emotional pain.

It kills.

Quietly. Invisibly. Legally.


And it’s still not criminal.


How many more survivors have to die or come closebbefore we call this what it is? Psychological murder. Emotional terrorism. A human rights violation disguised as a relationship.


This survivor lived to tell her story. Not everyone does.


And now, her voice joins the growing chorus demanding justice

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...
