Generally, the narcissistic was putting on a show in the first place. The person they appeared to be did not exist in reality. You got fooled. Narcissists are very skilled in role playing in order to attract victims into their inner circle. They create a fictional, wonderful, funny, kind, happy, helpful, caring self to lure you in. Eventually, their real self emerges and when that happens you need to accept reality, make your escape and move on.

It is not easy to change someone suddenly. But that does not mean he is not a nice person. Accept him the way he is, but introduce change gradually.
By being happy, successful and forgiving... Something that a Nacissist will never be or do.
I am assuming you are still with this person? If you are you will never recover. You must leave this person for good. Only then can you slowly rebuild your life again. I wish you luck and hope you become a healthy person again after dealing with this type of monster.
to ensure future narcissistic supply is available when needed.
Always. Narcissists never admit to being wrong - even when they are.
Power, they will let you go when they have achieved their goal of self satisfaction, then move on.
* Narcissists feel they have all the answers and people (especially their mate) should do as they say. * Narcissists don't like to be confronted with any type of aggression or a person flexing their independent muscles. * Narcissists are generally highly intelligent, but feel that others are not. * Their reality is not the reality you live by so there is no communication skills going on and never will be. It's best to remove yourself from someone such as this as it will only be an on going fight. If the mate of the Narcissist refuses to confront the Narcissist there is going to be a war and no winners.
You can't touch a narcissists heart, they may con you into thinking you have, as to feed their disorder, but actually, they don't feel. NEVER wound a narcissist, they will retaliate in some way.
She didn't exactly have "a breakdown" - the pressure of suddenly being a famous person was simply very intense.
Slander can inhibit change depending on the person. A slanderous person can make someone else feel as though they will never be able to change and thus, prohibit the person from feeling good enough to change.
HA. No, they don't. They seem to NEVER forget a wrong done to them, whether real or imagined.
Not all abusers are narcissists, but all narcissists are abusive. Thats right. Some abusers are BPD. Some are sociopaths. But all abusers have a personality disorder. All are selfish (to a dangerous degree). All lack empathy (when it gets in the way of their selfish desires..and there are innumerous desires, they are never satisfied).
