[xMrjamjam]

This is why narc abuse should be punishable by law, this wint happen because society is ran by narcs

I thought I had early onset Alzheimer’s .
I am recovering and see my brain healing
I could not remember anything and it caused me anxiety, also even small decisions caused me great stress.
Thank God for the discard and for no contact so that I could get some clarity and heal. I feel I was heading for being a vegetable.

And then you're ridiculed for it...

ABSOLUTE Truth. I'm living proof. It's a wonder I can remember my own name!

[IzabelaWaniek-ix]

Absolutely true. Narcisistic abuse causes memory loss and we have to be compasionate, self-loving and patient with ourselves. When we engage with safe and healthy people we can slowly heal from this terrible ordeal. We are traumatised and must heal our trauma and that takes time.

Somedays i think I'm going crazy. Ive been called, Dumb stupid and crazy by him..

[WigSnatcher-xpsg]

It really feels like I’ve lost a part of me ever since I started understanding what this was all about. My memory is so fuzzy sometimes!

[Shve-ox]

And they will mock and smirk at you for being so😮

[JerronJackson-uoim]

Totally. Sometimes it hurts too much remembering 😞

Once out of the relationship, does the brain repair itself.

I had gaps in my childhood memories. Extreme anxiety and depression. Narc abuse is like rabies. With education, rest, and recovery, regaining memory and new strength in myself has been possible.
Thanks Danish.

Also, my ability to process written text was severely impacted. A year after divorce, I still cannot read like before. Auditory processing is especially good now, however.

You continue to shock me with my life and how my dead father continues to haunt me… Your knowledge is overwhelming….

I love when you go into the mechanics of how this abuse affects the body the system the mind the nerves. It's incredible it makes sense it's palpable it's changeable it's identified and addressed. That's a solution. A solution I can live with. Thank you for all your hard work 🙏

[judygregg]

THANK YOU SO MUCH, DANISH!!! ❤ I'VE BEEN THINKING THAT I'M GOING CRAZY!!!

[JennyBWhite-bnpw]

Absolutely true. But, now that I'm away from him and in no contact... I'd love to have that all of that relationship erased from my memory! (Dark humor, sorry!)

7 years trapped and 5 years of psa coercive control child and mother sabotage and the worst part was the emotional sadistic abuse of the kids, it caused serious damage to my vocabulary conversation skill and memory, not alone my cortisol levels skin problem and pcos developing. Its devastating not being able to use all ur vocabulary on command anymore. We are all happy and safe now so i am greatful i survived he didnt get the kids taken into care like he peomised he wud if i went to court.12 yrs of hell. Two amazing little people who survived it with me and now we are living so peacefully finally healing. Thank you, i watched ur videos and it made me feel understood even tho nobody did.

I wonder if this could explain why my capacity of processing information diminished over time. For example, when someone tells (or asks) me something I have to ask twice in order to be able to remind it later. It's not really "me" and it feels uncomfortable.

Like a morbid level of cyclical reflection that over powers eyesight while awake. Is this why we get stuck in the same bad memories over and over again?

This answers so many questions for me! I used to have perfect handwriting. I used to read whatever I could get my hands on. I used to write. I could recall everything and be able to do large calculations in my head. My IQ was 140.
Now? Nothing. My handwriting is messy and I misspell things. I can't concentrate enough to read and, when I do read, I go Ina trance and could read 10 pages and not have a clue what I just read. I want to write and I do sometimes but it's just not like I used to. I know my IQ has decreased 😢
Does it ever heal back to where it was?
