Have you ever questioned your memories…

Felt like something was wrong — but couldn’t explain why?

Have you ever heard the words
“You’re too sensitive.”
“That never happened.”
“You always twist things.”
...and slowly began to doubt your own reality?

You’re not alone. And you’re not crazy.

You may have grown up with a narcissistic parent — specifically, a father who distorted your world so that his version of truth always came first.

In this episode, we’re talking about reality distortion, gaslighting, and the deep, confusing ache of cognitive dissonance that so many daughters carry into adulthood.

This is about reclaiming your truth.

It’s about giving language to the confusion
and finally saying, “What I felt was real. What I saw was real. What I needed… mattered.”

Today, we continue with our ongoing series into the The Active & Passive Harm from a Narcissistic Father and go into the unseen underbelly of coercion, intimidation, and blame shifting from a father; its impact on the psyche; and the path to integration.

Why is this important? Because verbal abuse (which includes things like intimidation, coercion, berating and belittling, name-calling, and blame-shifting) shapes your inner world.

It leaves behind an internal residue—a kind of emotional static—that distorts how you hear yourself.

• You begin to doubt your value.
• You question your perceptions.
• You minimize your needs.
• You anticipate being misunderstood or rejected, even before you speak.
• Over time, you internalize that abuse.

You start talking to yourself the way they talked to you.

Not because it’s true—but because repetition became belief.

And belief became identity.

And your identity became your reality.

In this episode, I also bring us back to the earlier intention behind the entire series, starting from episode 9, to clearly recognize the invisible scars of growing up with a narcissistic father so that real healing can begin.

Remember, you can’t heal what you don’t acknowledge. You can’t acknowledge what you don’t recognize or understand.

Recognize, understand, acknowledge, then heal.

Today we are deep diving on what daughters of narcissistic fathers need to know—Part 3. Why is this important? Because after a narcissistic relationship, it’s crucial to find the source of where it all started. And in most cases, it starts at home.

There are special toxic effects that are a result of being born in a narcissistic family.

In episode 9 we talked about the pain of witnessing or experiencing physical violence.

In episode 10, we talked about the lasting impact of the lack of emotional safety and the intentional infliction of emotional harm.

In today’s episode we go further into the damaging effects of hearing chronic criticism on a developing nervous system.

We also delve deeper into the psychological effects of emotional reversal and loyalty conditioning by a narcissistic father.

And here is the truth, if in your family of origin and with your father:

• You were trained to protect his image, even when he hurt you—you will do the same with a narcissistic partner.
• Speaking about him honestly was labeled as disrespect, betrayal, or exaggeration—you will do the same with a narcissistic partner.
• You internalized the belief that your silence was a virtue—you will do the same with a narcissistic partner.
