After dealing with a narcissist, you do need to detox mentally, physically, and spiritually. The lies and criticisms of the narcissist need to be flushed from your mind. Talking to a close friend or a therapist can help to get a lot of things out of your system. There is a lot of junk that we take out of a narcissistic relationship. There is a lot of hurt and betrayal that needs to be unpacked. That is why having that time, space, and a listening ear is so important. If you were intimate with a narcissist, cleansing yourself from their smell and touch is a must and also any physical items that they may have given you should be packed away or given away. When it comes to the spiritual aspect, narcissists have a dark, negative energy that is designed to weigh you down. So even after physically removing yourself from the narcissist, you can still be carrying some of that negativity, so you have to recognize that it does not belong to you. This is not who you are. And it can be done; through prayer, devotion, meditation, doing things that you love, and being around people who love you. But the detox stage is very important and can only be done when you go No Contact from the narcissist.
Clearer Mind
The fifth reason why you should go No Contact from a narcissist is that you are able to think clearly.
Narcissists aim to confuse us and have us doubt our own mental capabilities. So going No Contact and doing that detox allows you to gain a new perspective and clarity that you could never have while actively dealing with a narcissist. Decisions you could not make before you will be able to do now. Things that seemed so confusing or difficult will get clearer with each passing day. You will also see the narcissist for who or what they truly are and how they played you or manipulated you. This knowledge and acceptance are important because it will assist in your healing and empowerment which is another big reason to go No Contact.
