Gosh...i had such a similar experience!  Thank you for sharing that.  So strange, I am stronger knowing i can&#039;t return to what it was, but i still entertain the possibility of having a genuine experience with this person...that doesn&#039;t involve my broken ego.  Feels good holding on with strength and compassion ... and carrying on with dignity.]]></description>

Thank you Jay.  I agree completely and will have empathy for the narcissist.  I am a professional the field of the developing ego, and i must.   Also, I agree...this was a wonderful article in so may respects.  I had recently been involved with an adventurer, womanizer (blindly) for a year.  There is no way to put him in the void box completely ... however, I do believe his experience of emptiness is what keeps him always wanting &quot;better or more.&quot;   I shall be grateful for the year of adventure, anxiety and eventual abandonment ... mainly for bringing a core relationship wound of mine to consciousness that apparently needed a great big re-look and greater healing.]]></description>

Hi Henry,

it&#039;s my pleasure.

This may help you understand what I truly believe is the criteria for healing https://blog.melanietoniaevans.com/am-i-the-narcissist/

I believe the healing process for all of us is to go inside, reach, load up and release the trauma creating our &#039;disorder&#039;. This is what my NARP Program www.melanietoniaevans.com/narp allows you to do.

I hope this information helps

Much Love

Mel 🙏💕💛]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you so much for this insightful article. I do believe I have strong tendencies of covert narcissism, and have experienced neglect and narcissistic abuse at the hands of both of my parents. I am curious about your take on recovery from narcissism (not being the victim of narcissistic abuse). I have been in therapy for many years to combat this issue, and have seen progress, but not without significant resistance. However, I get really discouraged when there’s so much saying narcissists are absolutely unable to heal. This seems to perpetuate a lack of accountability. By the way, not saying your article is saying this, but curious about your take on the general narrative around this disorder, the healing process, etc. Thanks!]]></description>

Simply stated, narcissistic behavior exists on a continuum.  You know this.  I know this.  Most here know this.  You make your point not to casually blanket sweep because it’s not that simple.  But if a persons narcissistic partner is higher on the spectrum of the behaviors, then rest assured that blanket sweep generalizations do apply because these types are beyond reasonable and thus beyond help.  
I seriously doubt that most people online researching and reading about narcissism are dealing with lower spectrum narcissists.  No.  Their narc is a real full blown crazy making PITA and has driven them to despair.  
Sounds like you’ve done some work to address your issues, and I commend you.  But few higher spectrum narcs would ever consider working on their issues.  They see no reason to change.  They get what they want through their behaviors and just like the next child, what works gets repeated.  And that’s where their emotional development stopped.  Once you understand and know it, to deal with your nac is to frame them as a self centered child.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Interesting prognosis on how if you address your core wounds that the narcissist no longer can hurt you with that and those possibilities (relationship reframe or narcissist exits relationship was it?) will likely be the outcome.  
I should think it would behoove a person to just get away from a narcissist plain and simple.  I’d think a healthy partner would be caring and inclined to provide say validation to make you and to help you know that you are good enough, loved, cherished, valued and appreciated.  A narcissist is never going to be a healthy relationship partner so I’d think you can heal your wounds and fine but they’ll continue with their agenda, maligning and breaking you down etc... and it doesn’t need to be a valid wound.  They’ll just throw shit till something sticks or you become insane and then they’ve gotten supply and you’re in confusionville.]]></description>
