I learned a lot about narcissistic personality disorder.
I read every article I could find, joined Facebook groups, and bought books in order to understand this personality type.
I became an expert and for a while I could have taught a course on the subject.
I needed to understand the patterns and traits of people who don’t put priority on, or value relationships and other people in their life…except for their own personal gain.
I didn’t even know this was a thing before.
Once I felt I had an understanding of those personalities, I set out on a path to understand myself and why I was attracting these sorts of people into my life.
It turns out I was easy prey… My first six months of blogging was geared primarily around understanding that side of myself…how I became a doormat, and how I thought deep down everyone was just like me.
They say you attract the people in your life who are in a similar energetic space and frequency as you.
This whole journey for me is about wanting to be around amazing, loving, successful, generous people who are filled with joy….and I want to be a part of that tribe because I want to be that person too.
So instead of teaching you all I know about psychopaths, sociopaths and narcissists, I want to share my journey of healing and my efforts to come my best self and live my best life.
Your vibe attracts your tribe.
On a side note, I could have easily been a flower child in my previous life…
