They live right next door—but your life feels like a psychological battleground. In this episode of Fake Love and Flying Monkeys, we're diving into one of the most overlooked forms of narcissistic abuse: the narcissistic neighbour from hell.
If you’ve ever had your boundaries trampled, your privacy violated, or your daily peace destroyed by a toxic neighbour, you’re not imagining it—this is real, and you’re not alone.
"It’s not just petty disputes about fences or noise. A narcissistic neighbour plays a much bigger game—the long game of power, control, and psychological warfare."
As a specialist narcissistic abuse counsellor, I sharethe red flags, manipulation tactics, and deeply distressing psychological games these neighbours play—from covert sabotage to blatant intimidation. Whether it’s smear campaigns in the street, passive-aggressive “niceness,” or constant efforts to provoke you, this episode gives you both validation and strategy.
We’ll explore:
Why narcissistic neighbours target certain people
How they use neighbourhood dynamics to isolate and smear you
The emotional toll of living next to narcissistic chaos
What NOT to do (and why reacting fuels them)
Boundaries, grey rocking, and legal strategies that protect your peace
"You don’t have to justify your need for peace, safety, or space—especially not to someone who thrives on taking it away."
Whether you’re dealing with noise complaints used as weapons, creepy surveillance, or subtle community manipulation, this episode will help you reclaim your power and sanity.
