I'm not kidding when I say that Nietzschean philosophy was the one thing that really helped me. It gives a really good psychological analysis of what to watch out for and why people do not come to the rescue to help your project of authenticity (surviving narcissistic abuse is a project of authenticity). I agree that we have to be very strong indeed. And in a way the fight really isn't ever over.

I know the feeling. Then there was this one covert narc who blithely stated, "Just get a job of the sort I demand of you!" whilst implying that I must be an inverted narc or someone too grandiose to put my head in another fire, if I did not do so.
