Abuse Survivor Quotes
Survivors of Narcissists and Psychopaths
Members' Quotes
"I thought I was strong for staying and living through it, learning how to control my emotions
while living with the NP, but like someone here said, if I were strong and okay
I wouldn't have stayed with the P. They were right."
"Yes, they are frustrating, but they are giving you an advanced course in self control.
You cannot argue or even have a conversation with them.
There is no satisfaction in telling them off, they just do the kindergarten
"No, you are" thing. There is no closure, you just have to walk away and focus on yourself.
The whole purpose of their existance is to get attention FROM you
and they will do it any way they can. As long as you are paying attention to them, they win.
Any time you spend on N is that much of your life wasted."
"Psychopaths are social predators who charm, manipulate, and ruthlessly plow their way through life, leaving a broad trail of broken hearts, shattered expectations, and empty wallets. Completely lacking in conscience and feelings for others, they selfishly take what they want and do as they please, violating social norms and expectations without the slightest sense of guilt or regret."
Robert Hare, Ph.D. author
Without Conscience - The Disturbing World Of The Psychopaths Among Us
"Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than a person with nothing to eat."
Mother Theresa
