How do you rescue them?

What happens when you recognize the victim to be someone in your family?  How do you rescue them, without putting them in more danger?

One thought on “How do you rescue them?

  1. It is so difficult when your eyes are opened to what is really going on in a relationship that involves someone that you love.

    It depends how close you are to them and whether they are willing and ready to look for a way out. If they are not they will be sucked into the vortex that the narc will create for revenge when they start to see what’s happening.
    You can’t rescue them, they have to see it for themselves, getting involved could open you up to accusations from the narc whom will indeed make you a target if/when they find out you are involved.

    All you can really do is offer some education, it is the persons own choice whether to go or stay. I have known some people who chose to minimize the abuse, carry on making excuses for the narc or sociopath and stay, often for many years, tolerating abuse – because they ‘love’ them.

    A person who really wants what is happening to them to stop will do something about it. You can support them but I would caution that you will become involved in the craziness and you will need to be very strong and have good boundaries for it not to affect you.
