❌People You Cannot Trust
You can't trust a person who will never take accountability but has no problem always blaming you.
You can't trust a person who says they want the best for you, but then gives you back handed insults or passive aggressive remarks.
You can't trust a person whose words and actions don't match. (If they say they care for you but act like they don't, believe their actions.)
You can't trust a person who puts seeds of doubt in you disguised as something else, like concern for you.
You can't trust a person who does insidious things to sabotage you, or make things harder for you, but always has an excuse for everything.-Maria Consiglio
👌Decoding the Narcissist's Playbook: From Gaslighting to Growth
Narcissists seem to have an answer for everything, don't they? They know we're complex beings, full of feelings and thoughts, and they use that against us. They play games with our reality, using tactics like gaslighting and manipulation, making us doubt what we know and feel. It's like they take our humanity—what makes us real—and twist it for their own gain.
But here's the thing: when things start to fall apart, as they often do in the world of narcissistic manipulation, that's when we find our true strength and growth. Yes, it's going to be messy, and yes, it's going to hurt. But it's also where we start to see clearly, understanding the games for what they are.
Learning about these toxic tactics is like shining a light in dark corners. It helps us see the traps before we fall in. It teaches us that our emotions and thoughts are not weaknesses but signs of our humanity and authenticity.
Breaking free from these games doesn't mean we stop being complex or feeling deeply. Instead, we learn to guard our hearts and minds, recognizing manipulation before it takes hold. The path through this mess isn't easy, but it's where we grow into stronger, more resilient versions of ourselves.
So, let's embrace the mess, the growth, and the strength that comes from surviving narcissistic tactics. We're not just getting through it; we're coming out stronger on the other side.
