And always seek mental health if you are having a hard time dealing with issues and relationships that impact your daily life.

Narcissistic Expressions translated in Italian

Distance is the only answer to disrespect. Don’t react, don’t argue, don’t dive into drama. Simply remove your presence.

Be aware of people that say they want to help you when in reality they want to trample all over your boundaries.

Fai attenzione alle persone che dicono di volerti aiutare quando in realtà vogliono calpestare tutti i tuoi confini.
