And it's a long read btw.
So I've noticed that there seems to be a correlation between narcissism and biting.
I haven't searched deep enough about it but I have found too many narcissistic abuse survivors who have had the same experience of being bitten by their narcissistic mothers especially ; (parents although I'm yet to meet survivors of fathers who used their teeth) partners or siblings. I have two bite mark scars from my mother, one on my arm and another on my shoulder, the one on my shoulder has slowly disappeared but the one on my arm is still there and I sometimes look at it and laugh now but it's not a funny story to share with anyone no matter how healed I am!
Now, that doesn't mean if someone bites you, it means they're narcissistic, I have used my teeth to defend myself when I was almost being killed but it's different. I'm talking about people who have the ability to physically suppress you and still use their teeth as one of their many weapons against you!
I'm talking about someone already inflicting pain on you and to show you just how much they hate you, bite you.
I can't count how many videos I've come across on tiktok where children specifically were showing the bite wounds inflicted on them by their mothers and funny enough, amongst almost ten of them, I've always asked for their signs and got about five Sagittariuses. It's not specific to but it's very prominent with some Sagittarius to have one or both abusive parents. This post is not about Sagittarius btw, it's an awareness post!
Last year, I was determined to sabotage someone on tiktok who claims she was a diagnosed narcissist but she wants to change and go ahead and rebuild her relationship back with her kids.
It seemed so noble and a lot of us survivors stumbled across that post and were bewildered at the fact that a narcissist was taking accountability.
I made a comment that I'"m not sure how to feel about it and I don't really think I will believe this because it's a tactic narcissists use to coerce their prey into breaking no contact" and fair enough, she attacked me!
Said she doesn't blame me because I'm broken, bla fu***ng bla and I responded that I knew it, this was still one of their many masks. You see, her two children have been estranged from her for years and moved away and wanted nothing to do with her but she was still breaking boundaries by even using their ordeal to create content! They have no chill. They never truly change!
It's a pity that so many abuse survivors are silenced into sharing their pain or feel too ashamed of what happened to be able to open up, I know this, I used to be ashamed to talk about my mother's abuse because besides sounding crazy, I will be blamed, it seemed unnatural.
Anyways, I went ahead and bought a mic and ring light, determined to stop that woman on tiktok by creating awareness content! (Although the items both got bad and I retreated but I followed her and commented that I will be keeping a close eye on her 😂) And either she blocked me or stopped cus I obviously can't find her anymore but oh well.
Anyways, the point I'll like to make is this; I always have written that narcissists don't change and if you're good at pattern recognition, you'll know how to easily deal with them by detaching from all and every emotion within when you're in close contact with them- if you must!
They always look for ways to rile you up and they will attack your dignity in ways that will usually force you to respond reactively. Please don't! It's one of the reasons why I teach about ditching shame because they'll tell embarrassing tales about you even if it's not true.
So many times, I always rushed to defend myself everytime an accusation was made about me in relation to my mother!
Like when she first called me a bastard, yes my mother who birthed me told me one day after I mustered the courage to ask her to show me my father. She said where is this one coming from and I said , your parents have been repeatedly calling me a bastard and she retorted that "but aren't you a bastard?" 😂😂😂
Imagine the cognitive dissonance and gaslighting.
Mind you, her parents also have children we'll consider bastards but because they knew that I will be riled up, they kept repeating that same "insult" over and over and I kept breaking down over and over, why?
Because I felt helpless and I had the worst nervous system.
Eventually when I started healing, I could see and respond to that behavior or insult from a place of calm and reminded said grand parents about the bastards they have littered everywhere , known and unknown and I reminded my mother that it wasn't I who opened her legs to get pregnant and keep a child they knew they didn't want! Needless to say, that insult couldn't fly anymore and even if cousins or anyone used it , I made sure to go to hell with my own insults against them.
Yes it'll label you as the worst person on earth but that's the kind of Pound of flesh I like to have. Not revenge on men for cheating or friends who betray me!
Needless to say, that particular insult stopped. And it got me aquainted with insults from strangers and I always responded by withdrawing access.
You see, a regulated nervous system is an automatic boundary, it lets people know how you like to be loved and if they can't do it, they can get the f**k out!
In previous posts, I've said we should change the way we react to things and we will be aligned but most people are stuck with repeating the patterns. Feeling sorry for yourself won't solve your problems but when you face circumstances with a different approach, you'll notice a shift and better results or a better life.
You could see how crying over and over about the same thing only caused me more despair .
Mind you for years I cried about it and many people didn't believe me till I stopped crying and responded.
Crying was me reacting, responding was me reinforcing boundaries.
In psychological lingua, what my mother and her parents did is what's considered as "projection or projecting". Just like a cousin of mine who stole feeding money one holiday season. I was rarely home because of the crowd but unbeknownst to me, this girl gathered everyone around and told them I was the culprit. If her own sister hadn't witnessed it and told on her, that story will still hold till date.
Just keep in mind that people accusing you of exactly what they should be ashamed of are projecting because of the deep-seethed shame they would rather not face in themselves.
Stop internalizing abuse, recognize it for what it is and learn from it.
I hope you enjoyed my family lore; stay tuned for more when I feel like it🤌🏿🤌🏿🤌🏿
