If we stop throwing energy at the hurt and pain (and narcissist, even simply by continuing to fume about what happened), the power of the pain slowly fades.

Beneath this facade is a deep self-loathing and fear that fills the n.”” Meredith Resnick ## About This Quote This interpretation was drafted with AI assistance.
