Why the Scapegoat's Truth Is Never Believed in Narcissistic Abuse
Sat Feb 07 2026
You finally found the courage to speak about what happened. You shared your truth with the people closest to you. And instead of support, you got doubt, dismissal, and disbelief. If you've ever wondered why your version of events seems to carry less weight than the person who abused you, you're about to understand why—and it has nothing to do with whether your experience was real.
This episode explores the deeply troubling dynamic in narcissistic family systems and toxic relationships where the scapegoat's reality is systematically invalidated, even when multiple people have witnessed the same abuse.
• The calculated groundwork your abuser laid years before you ever spoke up that makes disbelief almost inevitable
• Why believing you would require something from others that most people aren't willing to give
• The uncomfortable role you've been assigned that makes your truth particularly threatening to the system
• What the aggressive dismissal of your reality actually reveals about how powerful your truth really is
If you've been told you're remembering things wrong, being too emotional, or holding grudges over normal family conflict, this episode will validate what you already know and expose the mechanisms designed to keep you silent. You'll discover why the system fights so hard to suppress your story—and what that fight reveals about its fragility.
