Leslie describes doubting herself instead of the narcissist, caught between outwardly seeing nothing was happening and inwardly still wanting to believe.

She provides neuroscience-backed explanations for this response and offers practical healing strategies including nervous system regulation, self-compassion, and nutrition.
