Ever walked away from a conversation with a narcissist feeling confused, exhausted, or like you lost a piece of yourself? That’s not accidental—it’s energetic extraction. In this episode of The Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Podcast, we explore how narcissists feed off your attention, emotions, and reactions to maintain their fragile sense of self.

We examine:

• What “narcissistic supply” really means—and why it’s never enough
• How narcissists use charm, chaos, and control to extract your energy
• Why they leave you feeling deflated, confused, or “not enough” after every interaction
• The disturbing truth: they don’t care how you’re left, as long as they’re filled
• How to recognize the energetic imbalance—and begin reclaiming your power

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like a pawn in someone else’s emotional chess game. If you’ve been left wondering why you feel so depleted after trying to love, help, or reason with a narcissist, this conversation will bring clarity—and validation.
