Does It Feed Your Soul Or Your Fear?

 

Narcissists and other manipulative people often use fear to control you. They listen attentively when you express your worries and concerns and then use them against you later in a manipulative manner. In fact, some narcissists are so suave with their approach, you might not realize there is gas lighting, lying, or other tools used because they are often criminals posing as firemen/women. Therefore, it can be difficult to spot at times.There is one big question you should ask yourself if you are unsure. Is the other person feeding your soul or your fear? Does the person say things that make you feel fearful and then they offer their solution? Or, does the person suggest and feed your soul to add on to the already full person that you are? Pause here and really think about your interactions and how it FEELS in the body. If you are feeling fear, then there is a chance you are being manipulated in a crafty manner. If you are coming from a place of fullness and another person adds on to an already full you, then you are in a healthy place. 


Take some time to think through some recent situations with the person you have in mind and ask yourself some questions. If it helps, journal your answers so you can reflect over time.
