@drsusanspicer: Coercive control is a hallmark of narcissistic and antagonistic and relationships. It is a slow theft of autonomy and of freedom. The victim often ends of feeling fear of retaliation, fear of abandonment, and fear of the narcissist’s emotional reactions. Coercive control can contribute to you feeling isolated in the relationship. With less support from friends and family, the narcissist becomes the primary and dominant voice in the relationship. I see coercive control almost every day in my private practice. EMDR therapy can be enormously helpful in identifying these patterns and helping you heal and take your power back. #narcissisticabuse #narcissist #relationships #therapy #nervoussystemhealing

Covert or vulnerable narcissist are almost impossible to spot. And it feels so much more sinister and evil because it’s so well hidden.

I didn't know. I didn't know until I started recording and journaling. I didn't understand what he was doing this whole time till I could spot it in real time and now I have to unlearn years of my own behavior. years of him doing things like it was love but it was actually control. people dont understand even just getting a bank account in my name I had to fight my own mind because of the doubts he put there. then I had to deal with the fall out when he found out. ive come so far in the year since I open my account. I put a retainer on a lawyer, storage unit, po box, and a car in my name to name off a few but I still feel so small and incapable.

This is only true with an overt narcissist. Nobody ever talks about the inversion of the overt - the covert narcissist. It's an entirely different method from the same root source. A covert narcissist will make the victim appear to be the controlling, manipulative, isolating abuser. And when people like you talk about the overt narc without specifying that they are overt, and that coverts are very different, you give the coverts more fuel for their fire, more leverage and "proof" that they're the victim when they're not. The only thing that has kept me sane in this exact circumstance is firmly holding onto truth, facts, and which one of us lied and employed manipulation tactics. I just wish someone would talk about covert narcissism for a change.

What’s the difference between someone who is an avoidant to someone who is a narc. Just wanting to gain more knowledge during my healing process.

I can vouch for every word you spoke. When I told her I'm filing for divorce, her only reaction was "... yeah, OK." She was flattened. Then, after the divorce was finalyzed, the emotional blackmail started. I then blocked every form of communication. It's been a few years since and today I am leading a happy life without the constant badgering.

20 plus years later she has taught my daughters too weaponize my grandchildren. If I am not willing to act as if I am a criminal danger or accept less than human humiliation I don't get to see them. when I stand on my boundaries I just don't care or love them. They say they will never speak with me again but return in 2 to 3 years for another round. Vampires are not so cruel.

Thinking of enmeshed families when I think of this, how the collective engages in coercive control through roles and punishment when a person tries to leave that role. No autonomy is allowed. Growing up in that system can leave us so confused as to who we are vs navigating something we couldn’t understand.

"I'll take over the bills", " I don't want you to work"... Talking about your friends "Doesn't she get on your nerves?" "She's irritating"... so eventually you somehow don't have any friends. You haven't seen the finances or been working for years. You have no money, no job, no friends
