Summary

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse Q&A, we discuss the 4 Overwhelm Types and the abuse tactics that narcissistic abusers use to overwhelm their victims. We expose how manipulators overwhelm victims to gain control, using strategies like love bombing, future faking, gaslighting, isolation, physical abuse, rage, moving goal posts, victim playing, putdowns, nitpicking, the fog, intimidation, the silent treatment, and financial abuse. We also talk with Jean (a former survivor story guest) as she bravely shares her story of overwhelm in her abusive relationship. To listen to Jean's survivor story, click here.
