The Web of Narcissism is a peer-based support group for people whose lives have been changed by a narcissistic relationship. While providing information about psychopathology is the foundation to our organization, our main purpose & intent is supporting one another's healing process, a healing process that may require professional counseling in addition to peer-based validation provided on the WoN message board.
The original WoN forum was hosted by MSN Groups and organized in 2005. The Web of Narcissism was originally created by CZBZ who is also the creator and administrator of the current WoN forum.
The WoN organization does not advocate any specific therapeutic treatment nor recovery plan. What we do and do very well, is allow each person the dignity of finding their own path with the encouragement and camaraderie of fellow survivors.
WoN Mission Statement: The Web of Narcissism is a volunteer organization dedicated to assisting people's recovery from narcissistic relationships. As an organization, we offer:
1) psychological
information about pathological relationships and the dangers of untreated psychopathology;
2) extend
validation to those who have suffered as a result of pathological relationships;
3) facilitate
integration of both cognitive and emotional intelligence towards self-regulation and the restoration of personal integrity.
As an organization, we intend to:
fill a void in people's lives; support professional therapists and counselors; foster a healing environment that is anonymous, tolerant, and devoted to a long-term recovery process; educate people about red flags and warning signs.
As individuals, we intend to:
heal our lives and pay it forward by supporting peers who intend to do the same; admit our mistakes and challenge ourselves to do better; move from
victim to survivor to thriver ; restore personal power by accepting reality, make wiser choices, and take responsibility for our lives.
As a collective, we intend to:
respect each person's right to make decisions for themselves; support those who choose to stay or leave the narcissistic relationship; practice good faith principles for a growth-fostering community; encourage honesty, integrity, tolerance and respect.
WoN adminstration reserves the right to delete, modify or remove any posts contradictory to WoN Forum policies. We manage a supportive environment, not a debate forum. If you are interested in arguing politics, religion or divisive topics, there are numerous websites on the internet that would welcome your participation.
WoN is not the right forum for venting hostility, engendering animosity, erecting bully pulpits, spewing criticisms, or pathologizing board members.
WoN managers reserve the right to delete links, delete messages, edit messages, and terminate memberships of anyone in violation of WoN guidelines.
