In narcissistic abuse, two key factors exacerbate the grief: lack of closure and absence of justice. Closure is crucial, marked by acknowledgment of wrongdoing and harm done, but it's rarely achieved in narcissistic relationships. Additionally, the lack of justice, where the abuser is supported rather than facing consequences, intensifies the survivors' suffering. This injustice prolongs the healing process from trauma, as highlighted by Judith Thurman's work, implying that a sense of fairness in the narrative significantly aids in recovery. Interestingly, public comeuppance for narcissists can significantly ease the process of healing for survivors.
