Status Updates From How to Stop Being a Narciss...

Learning about CEN and how helpful the last few years have been for me. Through therapy, and self help, and the support of others I’ve broken habits that I feared would be passed onto my children. Knowing that healing from CEN is attainable through this work makes me feel so much better about my personal growth.

I keep pointing out people in my life with narcissistic tendencies and it’s made a lot of sense, like: “they tend to blame others” or “they’ll talk about how their the most successful.” I also really enjoyed the quiz in the book because I was not only able to rank myself but others. Lastly, childhood trauma is the MOST common cause of narcissism.

Things I’ve Learned:

Pathological narcissism happens when people only see the good in themselves and project their negative self onto others.

Passive aggressiveness, projection, anger, and denial can all be traits of a narcissist.

You can also see them in bad habits like: family distancing, cutting off all relationships, isolation, or trouble with their money/career.
