The Narcissist in Your Life Podcast

Sacrificing Your Physical, Psychological and Emotional Health to Narcissistic Spouse


Listen Later

I hear from many partners of predatory narcissistic personalities who have struggled profoundly in their marriages to narcissistic personalities. There is a pattern of deciding to separate and divorce the narcissist, coming up to the goal post, turning around and returning to the narcissist.

Living with a narcissistic spouse saps your energy, increases anxiety and hypervigilance,  blocks your creative juices, stunts your emotional expression and spontaneity, isolates you from family and friends, sends you into depressive moods, dysregulates your body/mind systems, increases oxidative stress, traps you in the sympathetic zone, the fight or flight survival mode. How much longer will you continue this self-destructive pattern? How many more times will you return to the narcissist? 

This is your moment of awakening, your revelation of the pathway of the authentic self. Your road is up ahead, awaiting your presence. 

Recognize that you re entitled, you are created to fulfill your destiny as a unique, evolved individual. You have courage and perseverance, a fine character, creativity and the fulfillment of your authentic self. Spend as much time as you can in the calming, restorative parasympathetic mode: Rest, Sleep, Nourishing Food, Hydration, Beautiful Music, Time with Individuals You Trust, Your Unique Spiritual Practice, Restorative Time with Nature.
