On this episode of Hey Tabi!, the podcast where we talk about the hard things, out loud, with our actual lips, we're taking on the topic of "narcissistic abuse." Is "narcissistic abuse" the right term to describe harmful relationship dynamics, or does it oversimplify a much deeper issue? In this episode, we break down why the phrase “narcissistic abuse” may be misleading and how it can perpetuate stigma. We’ll explore the research behind “narcissistic abuse syndrome,” why some people default to calling abusers “narcissists,” and how pop psychology has shaped the conversation. Most importantly, we’ll discuss alternative terms that focus on survivors’ experiences and pave the way for both justice and healing. Whether you’re a survivor, therapist, or just curious about this trending topic, this episode will challenge your perspective and provide deeper insight into abuse dynamics.
