Five Ways Narcissists Isolate Their Victims

Narcissists often employ subtle tactics to isolate their victims from their support systems. One common method is criticizing the victim's friends and family, planting seeds of doubt about their trustworthiness. Another tactic is to demand excessive time and attention, leaving little room for other relationships. When the victim does spend time with others, the narcissist might play the victim, creating guilt and prompting the victim to cancel plans. Spreading lies and rumors about those close to the victim further isolates them. Finally, last-minute drama and chaos are used to prevent the victim from leaving the relationship. Recognizing these patterns can be crucial for victims to break free from isolating relationships. 'Isolation doesn't always look like control; sometimes it looks like guilt, drama, and concern,' explains the video's creator. By understanding these tactics, individuals can better protect themselves and their relationships.
