OMG this so much this!!  You have defenses (survival instincts) which are your boundaries and confidence, identity, self respect / self preservation.  Narcs break them down so they have control over you.  Plus all predators foster a dependency in their victims, so you feel that you cannot leave.

Yeah, an abusive husbands beats his wife but does not go to work the next day to beat his boss.  It is a choice.  They can control themselves.
