We've all known a narcissist at one time or another. Charming, self-confident, and fun to be around-the narcissist can make you feel great about yourself for a little while. When you see the narcissist's real face, it's another story. Put-downs, mind-games, and relentless criticism combine with emotional blackmail and other forms of manipulation to leave you drained and confused. When the narcissist moves on, you're left all alone, wondering how someone who seemed so wonderful could have hurt you so badly.

Narcissistic abuse is a widespread problem in our society, causing long-term emotional and psychological damage to the victims-including symptoms such as intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, anxiety, depression, and isolation.
