Yup, just because you can’t see or understand don’t mean they can’t see or don’t understand 👍🏼
Sometimes, the person who sounds crazy is the one trying to explain the truth.
When you’ve been on the receiving end of manipulation, gaslighting, and lies, explaining what happened can feel impossible. The truth is rarely neat. It’s messy, complicated, and often unbelievable to someone who hasn’t experienced it.
A narcissist knows this. That’s why they work so hard to control the narrative. They present themselves as calm, reasonable, and composed. Meanwhile, you’re left trying to untangle months or years of psychological warfare—while still feeling the emotional weight of it.
In that moment, your words might tumble out quickly, filled with emotion. You might struggle to find the “perfect” timeline or the right proof. To an outsider, that raw emotion can be misunderstood as instability.
This is part of the trap: the abuser appears calm, the survivor looks frantic, and the roles seem reversed. But the truth isn’t in who speaks most smoothly—it’s in the facts.
If you feel unheard, know this: your experience is valid, even if others can’t see it right away. Calm will come with time and healing.
