Description

The light bulb went on. You finally see it all. The hidden ways of twisting reality, the gaslighting, the games, the lies, the deception, the manipulation. After years of confusion, neglect, and emotional devastation, you've had your moment of clarity.

So what do you do now? Should you confront the narcissist? Should you let them know that you're on to their game?

The answer might surprise you, but it could also save you from danger. In this episode, we explore three critical reasons why confronting a narcissist is not recommended and could actually make your situation worse.

You'll discover:

• Why confronting a narcissist may put you in physical danger (they sense changes in their supply almost immediately and can spiral into narcissistic rage)
• How Pandora's Box opens the moment you let them know you're aware (the whole relationship shifts from them feeling in control to fearing abandonment)
• What happens when they feel threatened by exposure (a whole new set of tactics gets deployed, including intensified love-bombing and guilt)
• Why the smear campaign will escalate from subtle to overt attacks against the people and things precious to you
• How narcissists have been preventing your clarity since the onset of the relationship, and why they feared the day you'd figure it out
• Why acting the same as before (at least initially) gives you time to think and plan your next move safely

Narcissists are perceptive beyond normal humans because they have to manage their levels of supply at all times. It's like the air they breathe. When that supply changes or is threatened, they notice immediately. The fun is only beginning at this point of awareness, and keeping your knowledge to yourself until you have peace about your next steps is crucial.

Listen if you've just caught on to the schemes, if you're tempted to tell them what you know, or if you're wondering how to navigate this new awareness safely. Congratulations on your clarity. Now let's talk about protecting yourself as you move forward.
