Hey, Survivor! ‘Tis the season for special events. And, for narcissists, special events can evoke sabotage attempts. This could include: holiday parties, family gatherings, weddings, and more. What should be a joyous occasion can easily become a stressful or traumatic situation that compromises your health and wellbeing. When I got married 26 years ago this week, my dad almost ruined my special day. His toxic behavior included a hotel room “lockdown,” smear campaign, and threats against me and my husband.
