- 3:08relationship? Have you changed in this
- 3:10relationship to make the person that you're with happy?
- 3:13Have you changed anything about yourself to to to acquiesce to
- 3:17this person's existence, to make this person happy?
- 3:21Have you changed? What has changed about you?
- 3:24Because I can guarantee you you're not the same person you
- 3:27were. I I know you and and I said I
- 3:29know you, Arden. You know you Arden.
- 3:33You see what I'm saying? It's just you changing these
- 3:34relationships. Y'all.
- 3:35You change emotionally. You change physically.
- 3:37You say you might change financially.
- 3:39You might lose, you might lose financial holding, financial
- 3:42standing in your life because you're in a touch relationship.
- 3:44Y'all. What the hell?
- 3:46What is it costing you? Y'all?
- 3:48What is it costing you in this relationship?
- 3:50Is it costing you friends? Does it cost you family?
- 3:52What is it costing you? Ask yourself.
- 3:57You have you have to ask yourself what is this?
- 4:00What is this costing me? You know?
- 4:02Can I really live this way? Am I?
- 4:04Am I happy right now? What is this costing me?
- 4:07To stay in this toxic relationship space?
- 4:10Because I can guarantee you who you are now is a shell of who
- 4:12you were. I talked to so many people over
- 4:15the last few years. Y'all of me being on this, in
- 4:19this, on this platform for talking about narcissism,
- 4:22personality disorder, mental health stuff.
- 4:24I talked to thousands of people and I'm not when I say thousands
- 4:27of people, I am not joking with you.
- 4:30I've spoken to literally thousands of people and one and
- 4:35one thing that is a common thing across the theme.
- 4:37The common theme is that people have changed for the worst while
- 4:42you being any touch relations. I'm not talking about when you
- 4:44get out of it, you become a thriver.
- 4:46Why you're in it. You become somebody new, you
- 4:51become a less, you become less. It's kind of like a turtle.
- 4:53You are beautiful, turtle right outside.
- 4:57Before you got into this relationship, your shell is
- 4:59pretty you got Pretty Little turtle legs, turtle tail.
- 5:03Your shell is clean and you know.
- 5:05But now it's like your your your look, Your head is your head is
- 5:09always outside the shell. You swimming around you keep
- 5:11your head around you. You're a happy turtle.
- 5:14But when you get into these relationships, you become a sad
- 5:16turtle shell. Dirty legs all look crusty.
- 5:21Look, crusty tail. You know what I mean.
- 5:24Head is inside the shell. More times than not you, because
- 5:27like you literally retreat within that.
- 5:28You literally retreat within yourself to protect yourself.
- 5:33You start to disassociate. You start disassociating.
- 5:35Y'all you don't even know where you are.
- 5:36Sometimes when you getting yelled at you, you you kind of
- 5:39like what the hell just happened.
- 5:41You become numb to it. Y'all you might you might pick
- 5:44up an addiction you might pick up a substance abuse addiction
- 5:46you. It's like you might pick up.
- 5:47You might start abusing, sometimes a substance to escape.
- 5:51You might start doing things that you would never do before.
- 5:53You might become a yeller or a screamer.
- 5:55You might become volatile. You might become reactionary.
- 5:58You might because you might start to look abusive.
- 6:00Y'all these relationships change you.
- 6:04They just absolutely do. And this is not me telling you
- 6:08right now you need to leave right now.
- 6:09I'm telling you, you need to start making changes for
- 6:11yourself for the better right now.
- 6:12If that requires you to leave, then hey, be as safe as
- 6:15possible. Get the hell out of there.
- 6:17But if you have everybody's situation is different.
- 6:19So if you have to stay in this relationship space, start doing
- 6:22something for you, you might not ever be able to go back to the
- 6:27person you were before this relationship.
- 6:29And that's not necessarily a bad thing.
- 6:31You can build a better version of yourself.
- 6:33Like I said, you can build a better version of yourself with
- 6:36good with aspects of who you were before and who you were
- 6:41doing this relationship. Because you picked up some
- 6:42skills. You picked up a lot of
- 6:43knowledge. Now you might be damn near narc
- 6:46proof. You might be Resilient A F Check
- 6:48out my my homie, Sinful. SYNFUL.
- 6:51This is her brand right here. Resilient A F This is her brand
- 6:54for Survivor brand, Thriver brand right here.
- 6:56So check her out. SYNFUL.
- 6:58She's a narcissistic abuse survivor.
- 7:00Check her out on all platforms. Y'all.
- 7:01She's hilarious. Got a lot of good stuff.
- 7:05But seriously, that's just how it goes.
- 7:07Y'all. It is a very unique space, a
- 7:09very unique dynamic in these situations.
- 7:11You have to empower yourself, though.
- 7:15You have to take the necessary steps.
- 7:17Because who are you right now? Y'all.
- 7:18Do you like who you are? Do you like who you've become?
- 7:22I've talked to so many people. They just start crying when I'm
- 7:25They start crying when they're talking about themselves.
- 7:28I asked them like, who you? Who are you right now?
- 7:29They start crying. I don't know who I am anymore.
- 7:32I understand and I get it. I get it.
- 7:34But now it's time to learn you. What do you like to do?
- 7:36What have you done for yourself lately?
- 7:38What have you done for yourself recently?
- 7:39What are you going to continue to do for yourself?
- 7:41What's next for you? You said.
- 7:42I'm saying what are you doing to feed yourself?
- 7:44What are you doing to fulfill yourself?
- 7:46Because you've done so much for this toxic, narcissistic person.
- 7:48What about you? Seriously, what?
- 7:52Seriously, what about you? Because you have to do something
- 7:56for yourself. You, we have to find, you have
- 7:58to find a healthy balance. You have to do something for
- 8:00yourself. Because if you don't start doing
- 8:02something for yourself, you're going to lose yourself more and
- 8:03more and more. And then by the end of this
- 8:05relationship, you're going to be unrecognizable to yourself.
- 8:09And again, they're not necessarily the end of the
- 8:11world, But like I said, you can rebuild yourself.
- 8:14Why? You can start to rebuild
- 8:15yourself while you're in this relationship.
- 8:16Y'all. If you building up to leave,
- 8:18perfect. If you building up because you
- 8:20can't leave right now, I understand it as well.
- 8:22But you're still good. Take baby.
- 8:24Steps are still steps. Y'all do something for yourself.
- 8:26Do do something. Call up a friend you haven't
- 8:28talked to in a long time because you've been isolated.
- 8:30Because you've been isolated. Call up your brother.
- 8:32Call up your sister. Talk to your dad.
- 8:33Mama, talk to your dad. If they if they are still
- 8:35around, you know what I'm saying?
- 8:36If they and if they are healthy. If it's healthy for you to reach
- 8:39out to these people. Because sometimes those people
- 8:41are toxic as well. So you had a toxic ass.
- 8:43BFF, they don't do you. They don't do you any good to
- 8:46reach out to your toxic ass. You see what I'm saying?
- 8:49But like I said, at the end of the day, y'all you are, you can
- 8:54empower yourself to take the necessary steps forward, to be
- 8:56as strong as you possibly can because you you have.
- 8:58But I can say it all I want to you.
- 9:00I can say, hey, you look, you deserve better, but you have to
- 9:03believe it. You deserve the chance of
- 9:05happiness. Are you happy right now?
- 9:06When the last time you've been happy in this relationship?
- 9:10When the last time you woke up in the morning and just said I
- 9:12cannot wait to participate in this relationship, what did
- 9:16last? You did that.
- 9:17Who are you? You're not who you used to be.
- 9:22Now it's time to get them back. That's time to go get go get
- 9:24them back. You can get it back.
- 9:25You can build better. Y'all the bones are still.
