Episode 2809:
Dr. Mariette Jansen unpacks the subtle signs of narcissistic abuse in relationships and the psychological toll it takes on victims, from diminished self-confidence to emotional isolation.

Quotes to ponder:
"It is tough to break the silence. But the first step is a recognition of what is happening by acknowledging your feelings and behaviour."
"The victim of the narcissist desensitizes to the nastiness and will come up with excuses for unacceptable behaviour."
"You start to feel a bit lonely and alone and where you had strong and close connections in the past, these have all subsided."
