They love to shift the blame, and there's a lot of reasons why they do this and why it works so well. They are the best at the blame game.
Ever felt like you're always the one at fault in your relationship? Mandy Friedman, a seasoned counselor and trauma expert, unpacks the blame game in this episode of SNAP: Survivors of Narcissistic & Abusive Personalities. Mandy, who specializes in helping survivors of abuse, sheds light on how manipulative individuals twist the truth to control the narrative and maintain their power.
She explains that these abusers often have no shame or guilt about their actions, making them masters at shifting blame onto others. By distorting perceptions and mischaracterizing motivations, they alienate their victims from potential allies, keeping their facade intact. Mandy dives into the DARVO tactic—Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender—a common strategy used by abusers to evade responsibility and project their behavior onto their victims.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone trying to understand the complexities of abusive relationships and seeking ways to reclaim their empathic nature. With practical advice and deep insights, Mandy guides listeners on how to identify and overcome these manipulative behaviors, paving the way for healing and recovery. Tune in to learn how to protect yourself and find clarity on your journey to recovery.
