Im genuinely confused about your dni about narcissistic abuse and would like to be educated more, can you elaborate or reply with something i can search/resources to better educate myself?

The purpose for specifying narcissistic abuse dni is because referring to it as "narcissistic abuse" is harmful to those with diagnosed narcissism who aren't abusive/manipulative. Usually most forms of 'narcissistic abuse' can be classified under mental abuse or emotional abuse.
One example being gaslighting.
If you were gaslit by a non-narcissistic individual, it would be classified as mental or emotional abuse.
If you were gaslit by a narcissistic person, it is still under that classification.
It is not specific to their mental disorder, and can be a harmful stereotype.
