This is so true ... its how we get sucked in and when we do complain, there are consequences; when we complain - the narcissist tells us that we are making mountains of mole hills so that the abuse seems normal. So abusive - being used as door mats. Thank God we reach a point where the veil is lifted and the blinders are ripped off ... that is when we become door mats no more! “By not standing up for themselves when it is appropriate, many [Survivors] damage their self -esteem. They become angry and ashamed of themselves for putting up with inappropriate behavior. The more they put up with, the worse they feel. Soon, they begin to believe they don’t have a right to complain and convince themselves they are making a big thing out of nothing.” Nice Girl Syndrome by Beverly Engel
