Are You the Target of Narcissistic Behavior? scores your answers and places you on the scale below. Every band is described in full so you know exactly what your result means — and you can retake the test any time to see how it shifts.
You describe many patterns that are typical of a toxic, draining dynamic — gaslighting, blame-shifting, walking on eggshells. This isn't a diagnosis of anyone, but what you're describing is a real and heavy weight to carry.
You're not too sensitive, and you're not imagining it. If this is your daily life, you deserve support — a trusted friend, or a counselor who can help you see it clearly and protect yourself.
Some of what you describe points to an unhealthy dynamic, while other parts may have ordinary explanations. Relationships can be hard without being toxic.
If these moments keep weighing on you, it's worth talking it through with someone you trust.
Only a few of these patterns fit your situation. You might recognize the occasional rough patch, but it doesn't sound like a defining, draining dynamic.
This self-check looks at the pattern a relationship leaves behind: whether you walk on eggshells, apologise for things that were never your fault, come away from conversations confused or drained, or quietly doubt your own memory of what happened. It is written from your side of the story — the person on the receiving end — because that is the experience that actually matters here.
Deliberately, it does not diagnose anyone. Deciding whether another person "is a narcissist" is not something a questionnaire can do, and it is not the point. What matters is far simpler and far more useful: how the dynamic affects you. If interactions with the same person consistently leave you smaller, more anxious, and less sure of your own perception, that pattern is worth taking seriously — you are very likely not "too sensitive", and you are almost certainly not imagining it.
A few of the patterns have names. Being steadily made to doubt your own memory of events is often called gaslighting. Being blamed for things you did not do, or watching warmth switch to coldness the moment you stop "functioning" the way someone wants, are common threads in draining relationships. Seeing them written down can be the first moment the fog lifts.
If this rings true, the most valuable next step is talking it through with someone outside the situation — a trusted friend, or a counsellor who can help you see the dynamic clearly and think about protecting yourself. That is not an overreaction; it is exactly the kind of outside perspective these situations quietly erode. And if you ever feel unsafe, please reach out to local support services in your area. You deserve to feel steady in your own mind.
