Am I the Problem? Narcissists, Gaslighting, and Why You Start Doubting Yourself


Listen Later

If you’ve ever left a relationship wondering,
“Was it me?”… this episode is for you.

We’re breaking down what narcissistic traits actually look like in real life, how gaslighting shows up in relationships, and why so many people start to question their own thoughts, feelings, and reality.

This isn’t just about diagnosing someone as a narcissist. It’s about understanding patterns like:

  • feeling like you’re “too sensitive”
  • walking on eggshells
  • constantly trying to fix things or keep the peace
  • replaying conversations and blaming yourself

We also talk about the difference between narcissistic traits and full personality disorders, how these dynamics often start (hint: it doesn’t look toxic at first), and what to pay attention to early on.

If you’ve ever felt confused, drained, or like you lost yourself in a relationship… you’re not alone.


If this episode resonates, share it with someone who might need it—and follow the podcast so you don’t miss future conversations around relationships, self-awareness, and emotional health.
