Forum rules
This is a support forum for the family, partners and friends of those with mental health issues. This forum is intended to be a safe place to discuss information, give and receive support and learn about all the issues related to being involved with a person with a disorder. Whilst it can be healthy to express various emotions, please remember to be respectful about the disorder itself. This is a place for constructive discussions, not a venting forum.
The issues experienced by the significant others of those with disorders cannot always be discussed in the other parts of the site in a way that does not trigger those with disorders. Moderators may therefore move threads from other forums into this one at their discretion.

Hello, I just signed up. I live with several mental health diagnoses and a few physical ones. I also have a boyfriend who moved into my apartment and won't leave. Two years now. And I know he's a narcissist, he's proud of his manipulations. I have to get out from under him. I've not been in a relationship with someone like this before.

Hello and welcome!
I've split your post into a topic of its own, and moved it to Significant Others forum.
I take it you want him to move out- are you looking to split with him?

Definitely I want him out. I never wanted him in! And once he got in he burrowed in. It's an amazing show to watch, now that I'm paying attention. I talked to my counselor today. She knows everything I'm going through. I told her I joined here and she thought that was a great thing. I just don't know what to say yet.
Also, I'm not currently paying attention to the man. He's getting #######5 and loud. I'll be back though.

My partner has a saying:
You get what you tolerate.
Perhaps it's time to be intolerable.
