Storytelling time! Give yourself a nice breath and enjoy the story and backstory of Echo and Narcissus and a little present day commentary.

Mary Be remarks on the interplay between someone with narcissistic tendencies and someone who is drawn to narcissists. The latter personality is often like Echo in the myth of Narcissus and so caught in the web of Love Bombing, Discarding and Hoovering, or getting sucked back by the narcissist. This relationship triggers and is fueled by a trauma bond in which an Echoist falls for the familiarity, the brain washing via the cycle of abuse. Flying Monkeys or the Narcissist’s apologists enable and sustain the cycle of abuse as well.
