Just as a Resource. When I realized I had been slowly trained into being a submissive and addicted to my Narcy, I found the writings of Dr. Tara Palmatier. There is also a private forum on her website.(mostly for men, but there are female members)
Just like learning about TMS, I had to learn all about what a codependent I had become to Break the cycle and get free . I had to learn what I had and what I didn't have. Dr. Tara's articles cover Cluster B disorders and their codependents in Marvelous detail. (Narcissistic, Borderline and Histrionic Personality disorders) . Just like Sarno and co., it felt good to know I wasn't the first or the last to suffer from that sort of abuse and neglect.
When I finally left my 'person', it was good to have information to read and other people who'd been through the same thing to warn me about what My Narcy would try to do to reel her captive back in (they were right about everything)... But I also found out I wasn't as bad as some others and NOW I know all of the big red flags to avoid stepping into the same hole.
