If you've ever lived with or loved a narcissist, you might be a bit shell-shocked by now. After the gaslighting, the flying monkeys and the narcissistic rage, you might be wondering what could be worse.

Narcissistic abuse permeates every aspect of our beings, and when we can understand what we're dealing with, we can begin the healing process.

But the truth is that all of the name calling, verbal cutdowns and narcissistic control that you deal with are only the beginning - and as horribly painful as they can feel, the absolute worst part of being mentally and emotionally abused by a narcissist comes down to one thing: the devalue phase. In this video, I'll offer a glimpse inside the psychology of a narcissistic abuser and explain why his/her simple devaluation of you can cause you to feel like your soul has been crushed and your light has been effectively extinguished.
