52. Do the Feelings of Hurt and Feelings of Connection to the Narcissist Ever Go Away?


Listen Later

If you’ve been listening to me for any length of time, then you’ve heard me say that healing from narcissistic abuse is an endless journey. It can be our natural tendency to want to heal as quickly as possible. We want to hurry up and skip to the good part. But unlike a book where you can skip to the last chapter, or a movie where you can fast forward to the good part, our lives take time to unfold. The good news is that we have a lot of power in deciding how it unfolds, even if it feels like we’ve been powerless in the past. And, if we are constantly, endlessly engaged in life, consistently doing our healing work (whether that “work” means therapy, or spending a day outside just to be present and grounded, or making art just because it feels good…), then our potential for growth and healing is limitless. 


On today’s recording, you’ll hear me respond to a specific question about how soon we can expect certain feelings to go away, or if they’ll ever go away at all. I’ll be addressing the feelings of hurt we have after narcissistic abuse, and the feeling of ongoing connection to the abuser that we sometimes feel.
