In fact, anyone on this thread who tends to attract abusive/apathetic/manipulative/selfish/lying/slanderous/etc types may want to research narcissists.
Those with severe abandonment issues that cannot be otherwise explained by an event or experience might also benefit from researching narcs, because, for example, if raised by a narcissist, these people will withdraw their "love"for you/will "disown" you whwmb you dint play along with their abuse and control.
I felt this important to bring up simply because many times, the kind of abuse narcs and the like dish out is very subtle, manipulative, "crazy-making"etc, and because of this, the young victims grow up having little confidence in themselves, little trust in their own judgement/perceptions/opinions, etc, have trouble setting healthy boundaries amd be used by people as a result, and much more.
With this site bring geared toward people using drugs, and this thread in particular being FILLED with people talking about bring terribly mistreated and abused, the odds of at least some of these situations having narcissists and similar types as the core issue could quite a bit higher than average, as compared to other types of forums/sites geared toward different topics.
This type of abuse can be obvious or not depending on whether the abusive narc is the overt or covert type; the latter especially can leave you very confused, with you FEELING CLEARLY ABUSED, but sometimes unable to pinpoint exactly why.
In fact, bring raised by these types will often lead to drug abuse for certain types of people who habe been victimized in this way. There feels like there's some vague ocean of pain swirling insider of you, and you don't *quite* understand why. Watch yourself - after exposure to certain persons, do you run off to do drugs?
One last but EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THING:
If, in fact, you have/are dealt with/dealing with such types, BE CAREFUL. Some of these people can be quite dangerous. EDUCATE THE SHIT OUT OF YOURSELF before making any moves. Some narcs - not all, though some argue that yes, all narcs - are socio/psycho-psyhs. If you dint break away from them carefully (ideally, with the help of a counselor who is VERY FAMILIAR with/specializes in narcissists and narcissistic abuse), as some of these abusers will seek revenge - from violence to life-altering smear-campaigns and slander. Be safe.
Wishing you all peace. XO
