Introduction
On Facebook, I have seen numerous posts about people caving in to exploitation by others. Examples include continuing toxic relationships because of guilt about being cold-hearted,
lending money that is not repaid, and doing favors for others that are not ultimately beneficial.
Codependency is an intimate dance between codependents and narcissistic personality types. Let me share my favorite codependent joke to help you better understand codependency.
Two codependents have sex. In the afterglow, one asks the other, Well, it was good for you; how was it for me
? Codependents don’t have positive relationships with themselves. They often choose the needs of others over their own. This is not good.
Additionally, narcissists have an unhealthy relationship with themselves. They placed their interests first. They take advantage of others and relationships for personal gain without regret or sorrow. They fail to recognize their role in wrongdoing and shift the blame to others.
It is easy to understand how codependents and narcissists become entangled. It resembles the fitting together of two puzzle pieces. One is the easier target for the other. However, there is more of a relationship.
It is discovered that this interaction has familial ties. You are more likely to develop codependency or narcissism yourself if you have one narcissistic parent. The same is true if you have two narcissistic parents.
Codependency recovery enables a person to begin establishing boundaries and challenging the narcissist. All humans find it extremely difficult to imagine someone who is completely incapable of feeling empathy or being able to learn from past mistakes. A codependent's primary mistake is assuming the best about the narcissistic partner because it is difficult to imagine how someone could be so unforgiving and selfish. Thus, the dynamic starts.
The good news for the codependent is that there is still the possibility for healing once they fully appreciate how lacking in compassion the narcissist is—an attribute that characterizes us as humans. Codependents can work well with a therapist to make adjustments because they are ready to place the blame for issues on themselves. For the narcissist, not so. They are pathologically incapable of changing because they are trapped in their universe of non-blame. How can people change if they cannot recognize that they have a problem?
This book intends to provide helpful insights and techniques to help you recover from gaslighting and narcissism, with strategies to detect, disarm, and manage narcissistic and abusive relationships. If you’re ready to start your recovery path through personalized coaching and support, this book can help.
Break Free From Toxic Patterns—Discover What Keeps You Stuck
Do you feel trapped in a cycle of constantly giving, while your own needs are overlooked? Codependency and narcissistic abuse create a painful dynamic where, no matter how much you give, the narcissist’s need for control leaves you feeling drained, confused, and questioning your worth.
The toll of these relationships runs deep. Persistent self-doubt, isolation, and emotional scars often become part of daily life. If you find yourself walking on eggshells, fearing anger or disapproval, it’s likely that your identity is fading as you become increasingly dependent on their approval. This exhausting cycle can make breaking free feel nearly impossible.
But real freedom starts with understanding why these patterns exist. Our free What Is Your Psychological Archetype?
