This is galisghting 101 terrible advice and complete misinformation. Abuse absolutely can be unintentional. Coercive control is MUCH nore complicated than that. Youre a researcher? Literally just google it? Hope this person left and never looked back.

Thank you for sharing

.. diagnosis of psychosis is anyone not accepting the brave bew world. Ive been poisoned before. In the 90's all my foods in my apartment were tampered with, i would put things on the shelves in a secret subtle way and they were tampered with.. (i had been getting sick 🤢 from everything) friends who didnt believe me found out the hard way by have tea with honey that was tampered with. More recently.. my morning coffee ☕ at work was moved slightly to where i notice it. Only one sip gave me a headache. A second sip afte it had cooled doubled my headache. That was almost 3 years ago and i still have brain fog, vision problems, and significant mood change. Evil people diagnos "consciousness" as Sin. 😮

no. lol anyone who says yes, go and learn some actual science and philosophy

I work in the mental health field. My suggestion is if you want to show sincerity in your work, you should pick a video and dissect the topic that person X talks about. Talking about someone’s qualifications or forensics background doesn’t correlate with their knowledge with narcissism nor their intention to help others. For example, I can be a victim of NPD, and would likely know more about narcissism than the majority of psychologists who hasn’t felt the impact first hand with a narcissist.

Short answer: yes

I'm kind of curious how is narcissism an interpersonal communications problem or maybe my interpretation of communication is not what is meant here. As someone who has to deal with a narcissist on an almost daily basis I see it as a problem of two totally different realities and communication feels at this point almost irrelevant. The narcissist lives in his or her own reality, "the shared fantasy", and tries to force this fantasy onto others relentlessly. My mother's shared fantasy, for example, is that she is this great person, this victim, abused by my father and everybody associated with my father. In reality it's the other way around and she is the covert abuser. And if you do not take part in the fantasy, you are the enemy and the bad guy who needs to be punished. I cannot even see how there could ever be succesfull communication in this situation.

Literally yes. Not that it's inherently a bad thing, mind you. You can have many scientific fields or methods to learn more about religion, for example. But to outright "believe" in God is as unscientific as outright "believing" the universe started from a singularity. You could argue one thing has more scientific backing than the other, but "belief" in itself is antithetical to science, no matter the intent.

Yes

No

Dr Ramani never claimed to be a linguist. She however has some expertise with people and behaviours. Leaving aside the technicalities of language, a person expecting an apology obviously expects that the person apologising would feel remorse for their actions. Telling someone, "I am sorry you feel that way," shows no hint of remorse and, therefore, can be considered by many as a "non-apology." Most narcissists use this phrase, but using this phrase alone does not make someone a narcissist.

This is an intelligent mindset. Thanks! I have nothing to do with PhD but I find this approach genius.

The idea 💡 of God is as definitive as the idea 💡 of consciousness. The biblical God refers to God as a conceptual truth in the context of a created world. The concept of "freewill" is as definitive as Consciousness or God. That concept (observation) is based on the arc of understanding and shadow of the unknown. That we operate as conscious beings who perceive partial recognition of a higher intelligence that fosters a consciousness outside and free of the artificers of this realm is what is termed as "faith". That is fairh in the benevolence of a higher power that is concious of our struggles and "faithful" sacrifices. For what reason should we suffer? For the benefit of free will. That our concious bridge works to sustain freedom in a communication of freewill. For what benefit are the malefactors? To define virtue. The mystery of righteousness is defined by the virtue of the faithful. These dynamics keep the interest for everyone involved. We are created to be free to choose virtue or vice 🗜️ most choose vice ❄️ 🖤

i quit by not doing it again after smoking 5 years it was very easy

I agree. The phrase "I am sorry you feel that way" depends on the context. I think she is highlighting the fact that narcissists do minimise the pain they have caused. For example, say the person X stepped on your feet, and person Y tells person X "you hurt my feet". Then person X replies "i am sorry you felt that way". As someone who unfortunately had direct abuse, this is a common way abusers minimise the hurt they cause. But it doesn't mean other ways of using the phrase is wrong

Sycophancy to THE criminal exploiter is the what they have terned psychologically "healthy" behavior. Stockholm syndrome to the slanderous is the only correct behavior by their measure. Scientism. They figured this out long time ago. Psychologists are the most arrogant and least intelligent 🧠🤓 demographic in higher education. Usually, uniintelligent people who want to ve percieved as intelligent, study psycholog.. instead of learning math logic and science. They learn behavior metrics. They learn to lie and manipulate . That is what the corrupt feel as smart.

I left a comment and you deleted it.

I found this video intresting, brilliant how it ends. The situation puts into my mind a concept that i believe is occuring in finance/management/ and the tech industry.. (all based on psychology and personality evaluations). In my time at university, i was told that academics was obsolete and we were moving into a more progressive paradigm, explicitly, crime syndication. (The deans abd professors agreed that we were essentially going to opperate society as a crime syndication and if i wasnt going to play ball,.. they would cancel me. ) I wanted to point out that the tech industry education is very much centered on social policy, social justice, and ergonomics. Meta datas are being gathered to empower the "moral superiors". Look into it. Online tech courses exist abd the politics are obvious, subtle only to the blind.

Sam had made a video describing how our modern society is being destroyed by the new generation. I thought that that concept was profoundly absurd. The new generation has just arrived here into the world that was prepared for them 🐥🍼 This typical and absurd perspective seems to be universally held by the programmed "boomer" generation. Mind control 🛂🎛️. Criticism is not allowed, and censorship is like a magic wand 🪄✨. This spirit, polarized, is really lacking humility, and by that standard, they lack rational empathy. They often talk about empathy,.. but that is the grand visieurs empathy of the God like beings that they are. In their terms.. "lack of empathy" is the the lack of omniscience. As mere mortals.. we lack empathy when we fail to see 🙈 all that is.. which includes the irrational violence of the unhinged psychotic.

.. the personality type is our source of malignant toxicity. Their animal methods are based on the embrace of criminality.

.. being primed to thus behavior is toxic and securing toxicity. Evil is safe and good and those who doubt will be successfully slandered. This is organized deliberate personality control 🛂🎛️ Jung was a sycophant to the oligarchy. Their slanderous violence is tactical malice to the human condition. Orwell described their "victory" over humanity in his novel. We are 40 years passed that. I can't see anything that isnt toxic. We're done 👍✅

I believe youre correct about the hypnotic effect.. but incorrect with the shortage of people whom are doing this toxic immoral behavior. I woukd say its 5 out of 6 people whom are really immoral and abusive in dominance through immorality. I think we can prove this too

Half the population on the planet is narcissistic the Bible calls them Demonics. They are 90% of Empaths Griefs. They seek too Destroy Happiness

I believe my mother is a vulnerable narcissist and I witness daily how she can act as an completely normal, even sweet person towards other people and then entirely differently towards me, the scapegoat. Somebody put it this way, say you have 24 one hour therapy sessions with a narcissist, you have known him/her for one day in a setting that is pretty stress free and can even be appealing for the narcissist. I cannot imagine an academic setting, in which my mother could be studied and the result would describe even close what people go through with her. Maybe I'm just ignorant, but still I believe people cannot truly understand what narcissistic abuse is like if they have not experienced it first hand in a close relationship. I don't like Dr. Ramani, nor do I like Richard Grannon, but Grannon claimes he has been there and what he says often resonates with me, unlike Dr. Ramani.

I think you’re oversimplifying grannon’s views. I’m not going to trawl through his videos and quote him but I’m certain he’s made very clear distinction between trait narcissism and NPD and he’s able to clearly explain what NPD is beyond DSM criteria. What you’ve explained sounds accurate but quite basic compared to some of the insights from Grannon (not to mention Vaknin). As someone who’s been through narc abuse they both speak about it with a far deeper understanding than others , because they’ve lived it. Only people who’ve been through it know. Never felt that about Dr. Ramani who I think demonises these people too much and seems to focus a lot on outward aggression which I don’t think needs to be present. Vaknin and Grannon both explain clearly how being in relationship with someone with impaired reality testing and false sense of self really messes with your own reality / sense of self. That’s the core of NPD and narc abuse as I understand it (also a view supported by Dr. Mark Ettensohn who I think is also knowledgeable).

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but didn't the same thing happen with Robert Hare and psychopathy? Basically Hare started to sell different seminars and courses on how to spot a psychopath and shield yourself from them. Which to me sounds ludicrous and a bit grifty. I think every time we focus too much on the label, and not on the BEHAVIOUR of people, when talking about how to shield yourself from abuse, we go from sane point of view to somewhere else. People can be abusive without psychiatric disorders and people with disorders, even psychopathy, aren't always abusive. From the point of an individual it doesn't really matter. You need to learn to stay away from abusive people, period.

I think this is excactly the message of most of these folks talking about narcissism. Get out of the relationship if you can and then work on yourself so that it does not happen again. If you can't get out, work on yourself because the narcissist cannot be changed.

The most knowledgeable on this is Professor Sam Vaknin

Then again someone high in narcissism might a I'll not be a great friend or partner. The information can still be useful to identify people you might want to avoid or could be unpleasant to be around.

Grannon has repeatedly told people watching his videos not to diagnose other people.

Excellent video and an underdiscussed topic. Narcissism exists in all of us but to different degrees. It is understandable that there is stigma around a condition that by its definition has negative social splash, but I see the term 'narcissism' as you aptly said being tossed around so readily that it does devalue and polarize what a 'narcissist' really is and ought to be. Then there's the separate issue of conflating 'sociopath' with 'narcissist' when really wanting to deliver a dig at someone, which is just frankly lazy and spreads misinformation.

Will give a watch soon. Always great to see your posts.
