What does it mean to unmask a narcissist?

By Eliana Marris

To unmask a narcissist means a great deal about yourself as a person who is learning, growing, and healing. What it means about the narcissist is simply that you know who they really are.

If you reach the point in a relationship where you realise that:

You are being hurt

Taken for granted

Mistreated

Disregarded

And abused

You have already taken the first step to recovering yourself. It is all too easy to look over these things in the name of love. And to endure things that no human being ever should for someone else.

When you realise who someone truly is, especially for the worst - it means that you have become more educated, stronger, and wiser for the better. Do not take this realisation as a negative. For if you had never realised, you could never seek a positive life without them.
