FROM "WELLNESS," BY BRIAN LUKE SEAWARD, PH.D., P. 29 IN THE ILLUSTRATED
ENCYCLOPEDIA OF BODY-MIND DISCIPLINE, EDITED BY NANCY ALLISON
TAYLOR & FRANCIS, 1999
BODY: Physical well-being is defined as the optimal condition of each
of the body's physiological systems. These include pulmonary,
cardiovascular, nervous, immune, reproductive, urinary, endocrine,
musculoskeletal, and digestive.
MIND: Mental well-being is understood as the ability to gather,
process, recall and communicate information.
SPIRIT/SOUL: Spiritual well-being is defined as the maturation of
higher consciousness as developed through the dynamic integration
of three facets: relationships (internal, how you relate to yourself and a
higher power, however you conceive this to be; and external, how you
relate and interact with all people in your life), a personal value
system, and a meaningful purpose in life.
EMOTIONS: Emotional well-being is best defined as the ability to feel
and express the entire range of human emotions from anger to love,
and to control them, not be controlled by them.

WHAT IS
COVERT NARCISSISTIC ABUSE?
To begin with …
"Forget what you think you know
about narcissism.”

![Page 15: How to get away with murder a slideshare on covert narcissistic abuse by jeni mawter](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050613/589e75381a28ab300b8b52f1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
MYTHS THAT DON’T APPLY TO
COVERT NARCISSISTS
You are Told: Narcissists are always brash, loud, assertive,
flashy and confident.
The problem is: Coverts are quiet, insecure and passive.
You are Told: Narcissists will never apologize for things
they do.
The problem is: Coverts can learn that a quick and TOTAL
apology is a really slick way of getting their target to "go
back to sleep" if it looks like they are waking up.

MYTHS THAT DON’T APPLY TO
COVERT NARCISSISTS
You are told: Narcissists are ambitious, successful, go-
getters full of energy and pumped with charismatic charm.
The problem is: Coverts are marked by failed ambition,
chronic feelings of emptiness, fragility, low functioning and
when depleted can frequently sink into outright depression.
You are told: Narcissists can be detected because they will
always tell you how amazing they are and by bragging
about their achievements.
The problem is: Coverts are known for presenting
themselves as vulnerable victims who can even use that
vulnerability as a hook to bait you in!

SO, WHAT IS
COVERT NARCISSISTIC ABUSE?
Covert narcissism is a more discrete form of narcissism displayed by a person with a more shy and reserved personality. It is characterized by grandiose fantasies and thoughts, a perception of entitlement, and a general sentiment of being better than others. Covert narcissism is typically expressed in a more passive and indirect manner than overt narcissism; it is conveyed with a condescending attitude, insincerity, passive aggressiveness, defensiveness, and hostility.

IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF LIFE
THIS ALL SOUNDS PRETTY TAME!
To understand how lethal covert narcissistic abuse can be
we can use the “Boiling Frog” metaphor.Image from https://i.ytimg.com/vi/i648ygPzX3Y/maxresdefault.jpg
![Page 19: How to get away with murder a slideshare on covert narcissistic abuse by jeni mawter](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050613/589e75381a28ab300b8b52f1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A METAPHOR: “THE BOILING FROG”
FROM THE STORY OF B, BY DANIEL QUINN
BANTAM PUBLISHING 1996
If you drop a frog in a pot of boiling
water, it will of course frantically try to
clamber out. But if you place it gently
in a pot of tepid water and turn the heat
on low, it will float there quite placidly.
As the water gradually heats up, the
frog will sink into a tranquil stupor,
exactly like one of us in a hot bath, and
before long, with a smile on its face, it
will unresistingly allow itself to be
boiled to death.

COVERT NARCISSISTIC ABUSE IS
PERNICIOUS ABUSE
It is outside the victim’s and other’s awareness
It occurs behind the scenes
It is unrecognized and unquestioned
It is insidious
When the victim protests they are met with wrath or rage
The victim wonders ‘Is it me?’ and ‘Am I crazy?’
When the victim realizes they are trapped and need to escape
they no longer have the resources to do so (identity, family and
friends, finances, self-esteem, mental/emotional exhaustion)
Prolonged abuse is subliminal, occurring over 10,20,30 years
Over this time the victim has been invalidated, devalued,
denigrated, dehumanized, alienated, intimidated, objectified

SOME GASLIGHTING TECHNIQUES
TAKEN FROM THE NATIONAL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE HOTLINE
WWW.HOTLINE.ORG
Withholding: the abusive partner pretends not to understand or refuses to listen. “I don’t want to hear this again,” or “You’re trying to confuse me.”
Countering: the abusive partner questions the victim’s memory of events, even when the victim remembers them accurately. “You’rewrong, you never remember things correctly.”
Blocking/Diverting: the abusive partner changes the subject and/or questions the victim’s thoughts. “Is that another crazy idea you got from [friend/family member]?” or “You’re imagining things.”
Trivializing: the abusive partner makes the victim’s needs or feelings seem unimportant. Ex. “You’re going to get angry over a little thing like that?” or “You’re too sensitive.”
Forgetting/Denial: the abusive partner pretends to have forgotten what actually occurred or denies things like promises made to the victim. Ex. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” or “You’re just making stuffup.”

flying monkey
In popular psychology, a flying monkey is
someone who does the narcissist’s
bidding to inflict additional torment to the
narcissist's victim.
It might consists of spying on the victim,
spreading gossip, threatening, painting the
narcissist as the victim and their target as
the perpetrator.
Despite this, the narcissist does not
hesitate to make flying monkeys their
scapegoats when and if needed.
The narcissist might send siblings as flying
monkeys to badger the adult child back.

THEY USE BLAME, SHAME + PROJECTION
VICTIMS ARE TOLD THEY ARE ALWAYS WRONG
Always insist that “the victim is the problem”.
The victim knows something is terribly wrong but they can’t figure out what.
Because the abuse is difficult to perceive the victim will think
“It must be me.”

YET COVERT NARCISSIST ABUSERS
NEVER SEEK PSYCHOLOGICAL HELP
The real victim will search for help because
they can’t stand their suffering.
The Covert-Narcissist-Playing-the-Victim
will just tell others about their suffering and
never search for psychological help.
Why would they?
They were never abused!
They’re NOT in pain.
They’re too busy looking for their next
source of Narcissistic Supply.
