Narcissistic relationships often begin with excessive attention and affection but gradually become emotionally exhausting. You may find yourself constantly seeking approval, doubting your own reality, feeling responsible for someone else's emotions. Common signs include: • Constant criticism disguised as 'help.' • Lack of empathy for your feelings. • Manipulation, guilt-tripping, or gaslighting. • Everything eventually becomes about their needs. • You feel emotionally drained, anxious, or 'never enough.' Healing starts with recognizing unhealthy patterns, setting healthy boundaries, rebuilding self-worth, and seeking support when needed. Remember:Love should make you feel safe, respected, and valued—not confused, fearful, or constantly questioning yourself. Your mental health matters. Protect your peace. 💙
