Introduction

Hello, and thank you for choosing this book. I know the sad truth of why you’re here and I understand. Not many people can truly understand what it’s like to be emotionally and mentally abused by someone suffering from the mental condition known as narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). However, there are people who go through it and most of them think that they are alone. I’m here to tell you that you are not alone. I am a victim of narcissistic abuse, and I understand the pain, fear, confusion, and longing that comes with it.

A narcissist is a master of many things. They are a master of disguises, telling lies, controlling others, and always getting what they want. Once they have picked you as their victim, you are virtually helpless. At first, they offer you the perfect fantasy. They appear to be the perfect man for you. They are kind, handsome, charming, and they treat you like you’re the only woman in the world. This is all an act they use to reel you into their trap before they shut the gate and throw away the key.

I have been fooled by the narcissist. I have fallen for the sweet smile and the false compliments. It can happen easily. Narcissists live in a perfect fantasy world of their own creation, and in order to gain control over you, they pull you into that fantasy. The mask is the first thing we see, and if narcissists had their way, it would be the only thing we ever see.

The honeymoon phase is one of the narcissist’s many tricks, but it doesn’t last forever. Keeping up the mask takes a lot of energy. Eventually, the narcissist starts to lose the energy or the interest to keep up the facade. They stop hiding their true self and their true intentions from you, and you are able to see the monster they really are. The problem is that you only see the monster after you’ve invested so much of your own time, energy, and love into the relationship.

We know what they are. The narcissist hurts us both emotionally and mentally, and sometimes even physically. We could leave them. There may be nothing physically stopping us from leaving them and getting on with our lives, but there always seems to be something holding us back from and making excuses against leaving them, nonetheless. It may not be a physical or visual barrier, but that barrier is there and it seems insurmountable.

We are in love with the narcissist. That is probably the only part of the relationship that is real. When you are in love with someone it can seem difficult or even impossible to just get up and leave them. With a narcissist, it's not just the fact that you love them that is keeping you around; it’s also because you believe that they love you, too. Of course, this is because they used false demonstrations of love to lure you into their trap. Even though you’ve seen what’s underneath the mask, there’s a part of you that still has hope that the man you first fell in love with is still there.

I’ve been through it, and I had to pull myself out of the fantasy and back to reality. It’s not easy to do alone, but sometimes there is no other choice for your physical and mental wellbeing. There are still people who love you and support you. They may be there to help you, but the sad and hard truth of it is that this is your journey, and no one else can take it for you.

I felt like I was alone for a long time, and I want to make sure that no one else will feel alone in this situation. I found my way out of the darkness and into the light, but I didn’t do it alone. There was a lot of trial and error before I finally found the path to a normal and healthy future filled with true love.

I want to help others find their way as well. It was hard for me and I almost gave up more than once, but I kept at it. I healed myself. I want to show others that it is possible. I want to make sure that anyone who has ever gone through the narcissistic abuse I went through can find their way past it. I want to help you find the future you deserve.

We all deserve to be happy and feel loved, and it’s not fair that we were chosen by the narcissist. However, we don’t need to let it stop us. Life is unfair and unequal, so we have to
