Gather Evidence
Narcissists are often very good at manipulating others and making false accusations. It's important to gather evidence of the narcissist's behavior in order to protect yourself both legally and emotionally. This evidence may include:

- Voicemails from the narcissist
- Social media posts from the narcissist
- Statements from witnesses who have observed the narcissist's behavior
Build a Support System
Leaving a narcissist can be very isolating. It's important to build a support system of friends, family, and professionals who can help you through this difficult time. Your support system can provide you with emotional support, practical help, and legal advice.
How to Leave the Narcissist
Once you have created a safety plan, gathered evidence, and built a support system, you are ready to leave the narcissist. It's important to do this in a way that minimizes the risk of violence or retaliation. If possible, try to leave when the narcissist is not home. Change your locks, block the narcissist's phone number and email address, and make sure that you are not alone when you leave.
After You Leave
After you leave the narcissist, it's important to prioritize your safety. Continue to follow your safety plan and be aware of the narcissist's behavior. It's common for narcissists to try to contact you or manipulate you into coming back. Don't give in to the narcissist's attempts to control you. Focus on your own healing and well-being.
Leaving a narcissist can be a difficult and dangerous process. However, it is possible to do it safely and successfully. By following the tips in this article, you can protect yourself and rebuild your life after narcissistic abuse.
