10 Mental Illnesses You Get From Narcissists

9. Anger issues.

 How does a naturally calm and peace-loving person become angry and irritable? There are many ways one can develop anger issues. Environment and heredity may be part of that, but abuse can also factor in. When a person is abused negative emotions come flooding in. Feelings of sadness, anxiety, fear and even anger are produced and are kept within the individual.

 For some people, after a long time of suffering from narcissistic abuse, they may find themselves hating the world, themselves, and everything. This displaces their anger and negative feelings from their abuser to something else. When they channel their frustrations towards other things or people, they may feel a smidge of relief at the price of further pushing the people who actually care about them further away.

 10. Intense anxiety.

 Isn’t constantly worrying about everything exhausting? This may be the everyday life of someone who is latched onto a narcissist. Narcissists think that they are better than most people. This feeling of superiority makes them believe that they are the standard everyone should live up to. This is very stressful for the empath with them.

 It means that the empath can never be themselves and has to constantly be aware of the things they say or do to make sure that everything is to the narcissist’s liking. This leads to constant worrying and negative thoughts that cause stress and anxiety. And despite all this, the narcissist never thinks anything is good enough.

 Narcissistic abuse involves all kinds of things such as berating, belittling, public humiliation, invalidation, gaslighting, and so on. Narcissists do all these things to their partners just to feel good about themselves. There is no good enough reason for an empath or just anyone to stay in a relationship with a narcissist. So if you think you are in a relationship with a narcissist, get out before it’s too late.
