The nsp course can help people that are highly reactive and easily stressed. It can reduce the severity of their reactions to minor stressors.
The real issue is that these people usually have people around them that either tolerate this abusive behaviour or who display that behaviour themselves. So being around people that are like this can over time make you slightly neurotic, it happens insidiously without you even realising it.
When you understand what’s going on in your brain and what went wrong to begin with you can begin to fix it. Most busy successful adults have this problem to some degree. The issue is that people don’t realise this because people usually self medicate and have learned to hide this behavioural flaw in public.
So if someone is in an emotionally abusive relationship they are stopping these people that have this problem from getting help, because as long as they put up with it the person won’t get help, and drugs that calm the person down are not a long term solution.
Even if the abuse is only mild and emotional, it is still damaging for both parties.
In romantic relationships this abuse is often mixed with something called ‘love bombing’
In a normal relationship people communicate their good and bad feelings openly and consistently and people grow and learn together.
In a narcissistic personality this is not possible, so the narcissist be they a friend, cousin, husband, mother or father will alternate between love bombing and reacting inappropriately to minor situations that trigger that behaviour.
You can help them by explaining this to them. Their brain needs to adapt and become normal again. Psychiatric or mild drugs can fix this instantly, but that won’t solve the problem. Communication and a willingness to change can.
