The smear campaign.
You may hear things like:
“She’s unstable.”
“She’s just doing this for attention.”
“After everything I did for her…”
“She’s under their influence — she’s not thinking straight.”
They twist the truth, weaponise your vulnerability, and present themselves as the victim — all to discredit you and regain control.
But what makes it even more devastating is when people believe them.
Not just strangers - but family members, friends, people who once saw the truth.
They carry the smear campaign forward, often not out of cruelty, but because they’re still entangled in the dysfunction.
It feels safer to protect the narcissist than to challenge the narrative.
Safer to align with them than risk being their next target.
And for you, the survivor, that brings a whole new wave of pain:
Shame
Confusion
Isolation
Grief - especially grief for the people who chose the story over you 😔
If you’re living in the wreckage of someone else’s version of your story, please know this:
You are not what they say you are.
Your truth still matters — even if others pretend not to see it.
You don’t have to carry their story forever.
Healing is possible — and you deserve to be believed, supported, and seen.
Message me if this feels familiar. You don’t have to do it alone 🤍
