Double binds are all about control, because you did something wrong- most of it, at least according to the narcissist. You're supposed to try harder to please her. When that's wrong, you try something else.

This episode of Cynthia Bailey-Rug’s podcast dives into the sinister tactic known as the double bind, a favorite tool of narcissists. Cynthia breaks down how these no-win scenarios are crafted to keep victims feeling off-balance and powerless. Drawing from her own life, she vividly illustrates the mental toll these manipulations can take. But it's not all doom and gloom.
Cynthia offers actionable advice on recognizing these traps and setting boundaries to protect your mental health. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of how to spot these manipulative tactics and strategies to reclaim your power. Perfect for anyone grappling with narcissistic abuse or those wanting to support someone who is, this episode is a lifeline toward freedom and healing.
