"Rumination is a trauma response" Yes! Ur advice as to how to become unstuck from this anxious state is very powerful, and valuable, as it's not something that can be managed intuitively. I find that some hidden trauma can lie dormant for years then crop up when I least expect it. Many thanks for these healing words, Danish!

I used to feel so bad about ruminating. I used to think it meant I was dysfunctional or lacking in backbone and spirit. It took me a very long time to realise that it is a natural reaction to narc abuse. I only realised this once I started following channels like yours.

It truly does debilitate you. I’m going through it now. I have good and bad days. What helps me is…whenever I catch myself stuck in thoughts, I say to myself JUST STOP….. and I make myself recall all of the horrible things that he did to me, physical and emotional abuse. It’s not easy but it helps. I’m hopeful things will get better. Do not give up, you are stronger than you know. What you are capable of today is not what you will be capable in the future. Be gentle and kind to yourself. No matter what, people who enter into a relationship with the best and most loving intentions do not deserve to be devalued and emotionally toyed with. 🦋💛💪🏼💯

I was stuck with the narcissist for 43 years faced with trauma over and over and over again. Since then, 8 years of freedom now. Do I still ruminate? Unfortunately, yes. But with 43 years of it, I know it is going to take a while to get through. I think it is getting better, though. I'm also learning not to waste my time talking about it with people who do not understand narcissistic abuse. And talking with THEM about it IS a waste of my time and effort. They won't understand it, and never will. Eventually, they won't care either. I also have learned to avoid ANYBODY that is HIGH CONFLICT because not only will they not care, but they will INTENTIONALLY go OUT OF THEIR WAY to make it worse for you, gaslight you, blame you, and do everything possible to cause MORE conflict and drama for THEIR amusement.

This is why I don’t like talking about my divorce. Once someone asks me and I start talking about it, then it takes days for me to get the flashbacks out of my head. Aside from that the ruminating is me trying to understand WHY he did the things he did and ruminating has actually helped me figure that out, which also helps me know what to watch out for in future relationships. Also talking to other people and hearing their feedback on what it sounds like happened also opens my eyes a lot to things I didn’t realize but that they pick up on when I tell them specifics of what I went through.

Yes, don't want to explain your life to everyone, even new dates. It's like forced therapy where u have to relive the experiences over and over. No thanks. If a person doesn't know what narcissism is I rather give it a pass. Educating others is tiresome and I learnt very fast not to give specific details.. because some will scorn you .. with your fault .. without know about your private life. This i gather they do.. because they reflect on their own life circumstances.. which maybe nothing perhaps like your history at all. It just makes u judged. So avoid it unless you on very safe grounded company. Heres an example.. I said to a male acquaintance .. my husband was a closet porn addict. (Asides my then years ago.. not knowing that he was also a covert narc) The response was .. 'well you gave him the reason to do that'. People are careless and that was my first lesson of what not to share and with whom. Wish you all protection and blessings. 🙏

It’s been since September since I’ve been out of the house. I’m in a safe stable environment, YET, there are days when I actually feel as if I’ve taken three steps back and only one forward. I suppose it’s because once I was able to have some peace and not walk on eggshells every waking moment, I’d actually began to realize just what I’d been through. The physical and psychological abuse, I lost my home of nearly ten years and my job. It’s as if the real battle begins once you physically get away. While you cohabitate with these (people)….. you do not have a second to think about anything else except survival. It’s exhausting and takes a true toll on your health. Mind over matter……easier said than done, but in the end it’s worth it……. I feel as if I’m in the fight of my life. I wish you peace, courage and healing. 🦋💪🏼💯

I’m not able to go completely no contact as 90% of my possessions are still in his house…… he likes to text when he’s drunk and high. Last night for no reason I received a text from him saying “how happy he felt when he kissed his dog, because all of the evil is out of his life”. After 3black eyes, 2 concussions, a bruised kidney and deep bruised tailbone from being kicked as I was walking away and each episode I was told I deserved it because of what I said to him……he said I had made him do something he’d never forgive himself for. I never reported the abuse, which I’m regretting now. But wow, I’m the evil. Baffling to me.

All rumination whether it's really sad, tearful, bad, ugly, angry, hateful, or otherwise .. I don't push it away anymore . I stead I now embrace and think about the whole feeling.. wallow in it briefly .. then I let it go by saying something positive about it. All to myself, but it's working like a charm. I.e. I put my old dog to rest, and it's painful.. I feel it.. then say yes but he's in a better place with no suffering and God says there is animal heaven.. so I hope to see them all again. Narcs that i despise .. I feel it all .. all the emotions ..with all my disgust and anguish .. then I remind myself I'm free of them to live a healthier and better life etc. Hope this helps anyone else. 🙏

Growing up with a parent who has the trio of dark personality traits you end up attracting a lot of similar people into your life at first as you have been conditioned into being a giver. But you learn to cope with things like constant lying, arrogance, uncooperativeness, over competitiveness, blame and manipulation. On the upside you learn to recognize psychopathic behavior in others by their eyes, tone of voice, and even their act of being charming and agreeable. It all becomes okay after a while. The amount of damage psychopaths do to society is a problem not even the prophets could solve. It's best to just ignore the abusers as much as possible once you've figured them out. What never feels okay is when the narcissist takes advantage of a vulnerable loved one and keeps them under their control and at their mercy. That is not okay and very hurtful and confusing.

I wished I had more support from my therapist for 2 years ago after my discard after 16 years . She thought just move on. I need also a time of grieve , a time of healing my post trauma disorder, the last process was my body. I carried it in me with me, and my body told me too that is was psychosomatic. After cranio sacral work balance therapy , it solved slowly . It took 2 years , You tube videos helped me , therapist are still not well informed in Europe about narcissistic abuse. In you tube there are a few Chanels like yours where you find some answers what happens and what is happening afterwards. Thank you so much . Great short compact serious videos.

I used to ruminate quite a bit. In the past, after leaving narc abuser husband, I ruminated about the FEW good things and feelings I had. But that kept the trauma bond going and I couldn't break free. Someone suggested that I ruminate about the terrible/horrible things he did and how I felt. It worked! It took time, but it helped me slowly break completely free. Now I ruminate very little, but my ruminating thoughts go straight to the bad things he used to do to me. In due time, I will stop ruminating about my narcissistic marriage altogether. I am getting stronger and stronger about NO CONTACT.

Even after I worked out what was happening to me- it took time for me to mentally fix myself. Even a year later - even with other people now knowing who this person is- I still find myself constantly reminiscing about this person - thinking about what/why they behave(d) the way they do. I don't think it's about that person but how I can avoid... But there are times I wonder if I can help this person - I think that's the toughest part - learning to accept there's nothing I can do - and to adapt and accept that.

Though i never suffered physical abuse, confronting the original attachment trauma as an adult meant realizing my body had been in survival mode since childhood...there was an intense and overpowering level of somatic pain that had me laid up in bed for days: my entire right side had been in extreme pain for years but my body's survival defense mechanisms had somehow hid this from my conscious awareness. I thought I was going crazy due to my brain's constant hamster wheeling, rumination, constant overthinking the same thoughts etc etc...talking out loud fruitlessly to nobody. Facing the pain in the body was so intensely painful--shaky, shallow breathing, muscle spasms, popping sensations in the joints, etc--no wonder I had so much fear about allowing myself to face the pain.

Just seeing a therapist helped so much when I finally lost my mind and had to get help. Seeing the truth of the matter and cutting her off when she got out of hand took so much weight off of me, but as long as she was still alive, I still had to watch my back. Now it’s over, I’m trying hard to make myself acknowledge that it’s over and I will never go through that again.

I have gone no contact with my son's father. the drama that was created in the few days leading up to my birthday, then a few days after that, he verbally attacked me, the whole gaslighting, blame game was full blown on what was my late mum's birthday. My son is 18 in a few months, I was waiting until then to go NC, we'd been co-parenting, but I just couldn't anything, any more with him, could not even cope with the thought of hearing his voice again. He escalated his attack on me so badly on my mum's birthday, knowing how much I miss her, but... he needed to put the boot in. So, I blocked him on social media too. Now, to deal with the ruminating. Oh, I didn't know it was called that, I just noticed that the moment I would wake up my mind would start to replay so many bad experiences with him. First thoughts straight onto that stress. Replaying things form the past. My poor mind, it's been so badly traumatised by near 2 decades of dealing with him. I will heal. One day at a time huh! ... and I have been formally diagnosed with CPTSD from it all, as has our son :(

I went white as a ghost and had pain in my stomach suddenly thinking that this person was either someone who knew my ex or it was my ex in disguise.. the feeling of being tracked and controlled again took over my body in a second and I almost had a panic attack thinking “I thought I covered all my tracks how in the world is she pulling this off?” Now I feel like I need to keep to myself for a long time and really heal.

Breaking down these dreadful elements of narc abuse to provide us with logic and strategies to combat all the effects. 22 years worth of ruminations qas worse after i left him. Friends grow tired of hearing it. Ironically i felt like the narc always focusing on controllung outcomes. I learnt it was a safety mechanism to try to fix or prepare for and to avoid flare-ups with him. When the best thing to do for yourself is to leave these energy vampires. God bless you 🙏 ❤️ I'm doing v well nearly 5 years later. Just Wish now I had courage to go earlier.

27 years of this bullshit being treated like an object, five months after being discarded, thinking, I was the knight in armor, trying to fix her trying to take care of her. I think the hardest part was realizing that there was nothing that I could do but to try to heal myself from all the abuse.

I literally get stuck, unable to move as I’m walking through the house. Stuck, frozen, unable to move, ruminating, trying to figure out what in the heck happened. When I talk about it, I make no sense whatsoever.

I'm so stuck right now. I finally understand the narcissist and her motives, but she is my sister. My mother is unwell and in a care home (in later stages of dementia) and I appear to be the only person who cares enough to visit for more than half an hour per week. As such, I became both the "martyr" and the person everyone seeks for information. I then become "overruled" when I try to make changes to mum's care. The latest contact was that I am mentally ill, playing the victim and letting everyone who loves me down, by not seeking therapy. Honestly, I know EXACTLY what she is doing, and how she will be planting seeds in the rest of the family, which they will grow and nurture, and I'm left feeling angry and undermined. I also know if I try to prove I am not mentally ill, I will just look more mentally ill. Unfortunately, I feel that I will have no escape until my mother is gone, and what a terrible realisation and feeling that is. How do they (narcissists) live with themselves? I seriously don't understand that. I will be taking your advice though. Movement, I think it is going to help, it sounds like it should! thank you x

Thank you so much Danish, This is where I find myself with my narcissistic mother. She’s 85 and I’m 55 and only recently in the past 18mths crashed mentally after her decades of abuse. I’m in therapy but the rumination is awful, I described it as like an itch in the mind that you can’t reach. I want my mum to go away / be independent but there she is as a constant presence in my mind. Your videos are a real help for validation and therapy. Thank you 🙏

This is exactly what I have experienced and still experience. Sometimes, laying on my stomache helps and as well as focusing on breathing, especially exhaling. Thank you making this video.

7:22 i recommend shopping therapy , even if u go out to buy a cup of coffee, some silly inexpensive trinkets for your room or office like decorations candles small vases.. and shopping for clothes for office for casual outing for working out/ going outdoors, for a day out with friends

Thanks Danish. It's funny how you can forget things. I know this. I've read Dr Bessell. I've described it to therapists. Hearing you say it though clicked when I needed it. "Ruminating is a trauma response" I've began on little blank cards, writing two sides. One of "The fear" eg, "Stop future fear visioning" the second side a "positive manifestation " "Create positive future vision " it helps to plant seeds. I write them when gripped by the negative. I will collate them proper; at some point. Thanks again Danish. Continued success ❤

I was going crazy with rumination, the conversations in my mind, my kids would catch me talking to myself …it affected my sleep, detoured me from healthy relationships - and not romantic, normal relationships, because l was always going over the traumatic events. Rumination combined with smear campaign is crazy. I decided to give my story my voice on my KZitem channel. Not a road for everyone, of course you will look crazy, vengeful and some will call it defamation oblivious of the years of defamation and gaslighting l have endured. My rumination stopped,this was the best gift l gave myself, it contributed a lot to my healing

Hello Danish..As sad as it is to say--That is exactly what happens.And The Part that hurts( because all of life has painful experiences occurring)....We wonder why this garbage is happenning.WE care,we try to help..We put up with things that are actually at horror story level(& no,I am not joking) We,hear their stories and are full of empathy...in truth..Yet treated worse than a rabid dog on streets where they are.We were only trying to help... OK dumb me >I do not regret being kind... I regret allowing the person/people to be so sickeningly sweet as they drained me...I would of helped -No reason for the stupid power games...Which NOW I know they love...It is their(please excuse me for what I am about to type)..That power game is their orgasm/Their self assertion.It is incredibly sad for all involved.. Thank you for your work
