That is not just psychological; it is biological trauma. Because every time you override your “no,” your nervous system registers it, your body floods with stress chemicals, which, over time, leads to a lot of chronic pelvic pain, s**ex**ual dysfunction, or fear, PTSD symptoms, immune system dysregulation, or dysfunction. You do not just feel unsafe around them; you feel unsafe in your skin.
And they gaslight you every step of the way. What do they say? They say, as usual, “You’re overreacting, you do not love me anymore, you didn’t say ‘no’ loud enough, it’s not that serious, get over it.” But you can’t, because it is that serious. It’s your body, it’s your biology, it’s your right to create those boundaries.
You see, this is not just emotional abuse, what we talked about it’s physiological sabotage. The damage a narcissist does isn’t limited to your self-esteem; that is just a part of it, which is why I call it a multifaceted impact this narcissistic abuse trauma leaves on you. The abuse is literally in your blood work, it is in your hormones, it is in your medical bills, it is in your fatigue; it is the unseen wounds your body carries silently day after day. Narcissists do not just break hearts; they hijack bodies.
So, if you are feeling sick, tired, or confused, please understand you’re not crazy. Your body is speaking; your biology remembers. You need to listen. And the first step toward healing is recognizing that what happened to you wasn’t just abuse, as I said; it was biological betrayal and warfare. You deserve to be whole again, and with the right support, you will be. You have to start healing your body.
