5 Insane Lies Narcissists Tell Themselves to Survive Their Own Collapse
The hard truth that you need to hear now: When you see a narcissist pulling themselves out of a collapse—parading around in their fake new life and acting like you were the problem all along—it can drive you crazy. You may want to jump in and defend yourself. You may want to text them and say, “How can you believe this? You know what you did to me, but you have to realize that you can’t argue with a person who is directing a fake movie in their own head.”
They are lying to themselves because the truth would destroy them. Let them have their lies. Let them sit in their cardboard house and pretend it is a castle. Let them tell themselves that you’re a jealous evil woman who ruined their life.
Their delusional thoughts have nothing to do with your reality. Their fake recovery is not real strength—it is just a panicked reaction to losing control. They’re running on empty, using anger and fake stories to keep themselves moving. But a house built on lies will always crash again. You do not have to stick around to watch it fall.
