Chapter 1: Success Stories
In order to give love, we must all love ourselves first. This statement appears to be true that most of us fil to thoroughly examine it. In day-to-day affairs, be it business, be it love, or in the family setup, we act on this premise, yet it is shaky.
While some people believe that they do not love themselves at all (ego-dystonic group), others feel they have self-love because they are contended by who they are (ego-syntonic). Yet other people restrict their definition of love in regard to their traits, behavioral patterns, and personal history. But there appears a group of people with a unique mental constitution – the narcissists.
Introduction to Narcissistic Characters
Narcissists are believed to be in love with themselves. However, this is not the case. A narcissist is always in love with his REFLECTION rather than being in love with HIMSELF. Being in love with oneself is functional, healthy, and adaptive, but having a love for one’s self-reflection is associated with two setbacks: the person always depends on the availability of the reflection in order to develop self-love and the lack of “objective and realistic yardstick” of whether the reflection exists in reality.
A common misconception is that narcissists always love themselves. But in reality, their love is always directed to others people’s approval of them. A person whose love is based on impression is not capable of genuinely loving other people, including his own self.
A narcissist has an in-bred desire to feel loved and to love others, which means that if he is unable to love himself and others, he must be in love with his reflection amidst the possible contrast with his self-image. Unlike an ordinary person, a narcissist would invest a lot of energy and other resources to maintain the projected image, sometimes becoming vulnerable to external threats.
But a major trait that projects the image of a narcissist is lovability. A narcissist will always associate love with other emotions like respect, attention, awe, and admiration. Thus, for a narcissist, a projected image is usually loveable and can be loved, thus, equating it to self-love. This character drains narcissists of their mental energy, thereby lacking any left to dedicate to other people.
Success Stories of Narcissistic Abuse
I developed an interest in understanding narcissism in the year 2014 when I got a chance to visit a 3-day Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Program that was held in Brooklyn. During the event, I met several survivors of narcissistic abuse as well as those that are still trapped with narcissists. But the most intriguing story was that involving three subjects, Lilie who had separated from her narcissistic husband, Joe, and Kelly who escaped from his narcissistic family members. In this section, I am going to share their experience with narcissists, and how they recovered from the abuse.
Case Study #1: Lilie’s Experience with a Narcissistic Husband
When Lilie stood before the congregation, she began to sob even before uttering a word. She seems to have put the matters behind her, but still, the wound seemed fresh. She had just walked out of her 12 years marriage and had taken her two kids to live with her mother. She narrated how she had been blinded for more than 10 years not to recognize that she was leaving with a narcissist. When she began talking, I felt a personal connection with her pain, vividly narrating how she met her husband back in the college days,
“I remember vividly how we met back in college, at the beginning of the summer. I had just joined campus and the person who was ready to give me orientation was Josh who was already a second year. That day he showed me everywhere, including the classes, the laboratories, the botanical areas, and eventually to his room where he jovially welcomed me. By the end of the day, I knew I had met a friend, and as history would have it, we soon began dating.”
Lilie explained how they were always together, and Josh would take her everywhere as long as he was free. After 3 years of dating, Josh took her to meet his parents in the summer holidays, whom she saw were very nice people. However, during her stay there, she recalled observing her boyfriend being to controlling with the parents, something she had never felt (or too ignorant to notice). He would dictate what is to be cooked, how he would be treated and the help he would render to his family. When she asked about the negative attitude, he always told her, “you don’t know how mean these people are, just shut up.”
After they graduated, they decided to get married. Although the wedding was fabulous, Lilie recalled that Josh changed immediately they got married. He would no longer let her go out to meet her friends, telling her that she needed more time to concentrate on her newly built home. He would accompany her to the groceries and any other places she wanted to go to during the weekends, and on weekdays, he would frequently pop up to check on her without notice.
“At first, I thought that Josh just wanted to spend time with me, but I came to realize later that he was just a narcissist. When he found me talking to my male colleagues, he would intentionally engage me in a heated argument about not being dedicated to our marriage and flirting with men. He would even call me names like whore or sl**t then later apologize.”
Lilie began to blame herself, feeling that she never loved Joe enough. She, therefore, resorted to not having any conversation or social engagement with her male colleagues except with her bosses. She would later abandon all her female friends and her sisters since she had believed that they were just a waste of time and that they did not add any value to the marriage. But things got even worse when she had her first born, “
“When I had my first baby, I had gained a lot of weight. Joe considered that a weakness point, and would mock me with it. He was never there for any of us, and I was left struggling alone. He was distant emotionally and sexually, and one time he told me that he lost interest in me because I was fat.”
Lilie further narrated how she plunged into depression and recalled falling sick often because of stress. Joe would tell her that she preferred other women because she was no longer good enough, but she endured all the traumatizing abuses, just to keep her marriage going. She would soon get her second baby after 3 years, and the state of her marriage grew even worse.
“After our second baby, Joe wanted me to leave my career so that I can baby sit. He believed he had enough money to take care of us, so I didn’t have a reason to work. But I still did not lose myself to that extend. I love my art job, and I wouldn’t have sacrificed it at all. When I refused, my husband became violent; he associated my going to work to have an opportunity to meet men. I would cry throughout the night as he could abuse me before the kids. But my kids’ nanny opened my eyes.”
According to Lilie, she learned that her nanny had experienced such a marriage life before she decided to get divorced. Unfortunately for her (nanny), she never had a good career to move on earlier. She was abused for a long time, but when the beatings were too much, she decided to go and look for casual jobs. When Lilie heard her story, it became an eye opener to her. She noticed that truly she was living with a narcissist who had psychological issues.
She, therefore, decided to record her husband during an argument one evening. She then took the abusive recording to the court, where she filed a divorce and children’s lawsuit. Eventually, she got her freedom and swore not to have such an ugly experience again.
Case Study #2: Kelly Detaches Herself from Her Narcissistic Family
“The moment I knew I had to part ways with my narc-family is when my father died,” Kelly narrated her experience sorrowfully that many people in the group shed tears. She recalls how she had been so close to the father. Being a first-born child in the family, her parents held high expectations from her and wanted her to get a better education so that she could later take care of her three other siblings.
But their dream was halt when her father was diagnosed with cancer in 2014. He had been the breadwinner of his family since he was a dedicated banker and a part-time businessman. When he got sick, Kelly’s mother took over the business, which she ran with her other sisters who were 23 and 25 respectively. Because of financial strains, ranging from hospital bills, house bills, to the education costs of her younger siblings, Kelly was forced to drop out of her postgraduate nursing course and went to look for an internship at a local hospital. She made efforts to contribute to the family budget as much as she can, but her mother could not appreciate any of her efforts.
“I worked both day and night because I wanted my father to get the best medication. Since his former employer did not cover him for chronic diseases, he had to resign and use whatever we generated for his hospital bills. But my mom was never there for him at all. I felt that the business was doing well and that she could support my father’s treatment with no strain.”
Kelly describes how her mother stopped taking care of the father, telling her constantly that she and her children needed the money more because they have more days to live. The most painful moment that Kelly remembers is how her mother constantly abused the dad for choosing a poor lifestyle,
