6. They become frustrated and hostile and start punishing you in quite unacceptable ways.
A narcissist’s go-to emotion is aggression. Everything that they feel is covered in lead with anger because that is the easiest to feel, easiest to project, and easiest to use to gain control of the environment. So that is what they do. If they can’t show their aggression quite overtly, they would start attacking you quite indirectly. They might cancel your appointments without you knowing, they might create chaos. The moment you have to leave for the hospital, they may destroy your medicines. They may destroy your reports, or they may conspire and somehow get wrong data and wrong results to be shown in your lab reports so that you get diagnosed with something that you do not actually have.

That is the extent of their hostility. That is how aggressive they can be, and that is how punitive they are. They might turn everything around so that you suffer even more because of the abuse than the actual illness you’re struggling with. All in all, I would say they are not supportive. They are not present. They are not there for you. And the devastating impact of the absence is the shock. You know, you are betrayed one more time and you are now supposed to realize that it was all a lie. And this is the monster that you are with. And it breaks a person down to know that they are with a person who is emotionally dead. It just kills you emotionally. And those wounds are the bigger ones than the actual physical wounds that you have to heal.
