      ​@@indijamahjoeddin5195 genetic traits can exist invisibly in potential in parents so it's worth looking at the wider family. In our case it seems to zigzag through the generations so there always seems to be one but you don't know where they'll pop up.

    Please don’t stop doing these videos!! After watching over 100 videos about narcissists I was still ruminating about the narc. After hearing ONE video of YOURS i totally stopped immediately!! It finally all makes sense. Something was missing and this is it, genetic!!! I can easily walk away with love now. Now when I look at his pictures I see the real him. He does not look at all the same all of a sudden. Mind blowing, finally. THANK YOU SO MUCH ❤❤

    I will 100 percent validate your experience of life with a partner with this. I was given the exact advice. I had a hard time leaving because couples counseling and ministers with good intentions were the first people consulted. The partner was a highly intelligent and genius with the highest academic letters and convinced me to stay longer than I should have. By that time, it was dangerous. I wish people could understand that you cannot call them out but make a plan to exit. Once they know you are aware of how they operate it will literally become almost impossible. No one wants to believe the person they chose is not who they pretended to be. Young people need to know what these character traits look like and what to look for.

      @kpf2014 I am sorry Dr. Salerno had this experience, but very glad he shared it. Specifically how attachment theory was shoved down his throat instead of 1) getting the trauma therapy he needed and, 2) being left in the line of fire where his safety was in grave danger. This is why the pop-psychology use of Attachment Styles lost my favor long ago. Too many therapists have either gotten complacent and use attachment styles as a broad stroke or they insist on using attachment styles because they're in their own toxic relationships and are delusional about it.

    I married and raised children with a NPD partner, it was very very difficult. I have thought for a long time that NPD is mostly genetic, based on observations over that time. In my opinion you offer a far more realistic and material explanation of personality disorders, the way you describe the nuances of the behaviours really hits the nail on the head. No magic, faulty wiring is what it really seems like, way more than learned behaviour.

    I appreciate your research. I work with adults and teens who have experienced trauma. I have found that I am carefully screening to ascertain if relationship distress fits the criteria for ptsd. Relationship trauma from someone who has experienced narcissistic abuse does not fit neatly from the criteria in the DSM. It is refreshing and useful for us clinicians working in the field to have someone who is carefully studying the research and disseminating information. I also like that you cite your resources. The actual victims who have suffered are often stuck trying to figure out why someone would act in abusive ways and they themselves are offering explanations that it is because of trauma. When I tell them that they are operating in a different paradigm and different understanding of relationships than the narcissist, they start finding relief. Thank you for talking about the ACE! I cringe when I hear professionals using this as an absolute to screening clients and readily make a ptsd diagnosis. Thank you!!

    Having read his new book and having read everything I could over the last 5 years, finally here is a learned Dr, who has written extensively with a level of professional curiosity and research and most importantly allowed the EVIDENCE to lead the way forward. Knowledge, research and wisdom are clearly his main tools which he has used to build on previous understanding and question where necessary to develop our understanding and knowledge. Having read his book it has finally clicked and where previously accepted views just didn't add up, he has filled the gaps. I urge you to read the book, cross reference his data. The key to the lock opens and an "OH MY GOD, YES THIS MAKES SENSE MOMENT" filled my questioning mind.

    Exactly! The issue is that psychopathy/narcissism/etc.. research were largely based on what the most notorious criminals reported, but these individuals are often the biggest liars. Therefore, we cannot fully trust their accounts. Unfortunately, much of what is taught in schools about those people is based on these studies, which is not accurate or reliable. This highlights the urgent need for a review and update of the educational material on this topic.

    I’m so thankful for your knowledge and your book! I have always thought as a victim of a pathological husband, and learning about these disorders on my own (because honestly, I think all of us had to learn and figure out ourselves what was happening,as trying to explain it to someone who hasn’t an experienced it, or a mental health professional who does not have any understanding of how diabolical these people truly are, are clueless) that trauma wasn’t the problem! I have ran across a few other mental health providers online recently who have also expressed your same viewpoints. I hope that other mental health professionals get on board with this theory so that victims can be saved. When I look back on what I have been through, it sounds unbelievable to describe it to someone, lunacy even. If it wasn’t for me researching and coming across knowledgeable people, I would have never known what was wrong with him, now I have learned so much. I never knew that people like this existed, and I don’t think those who haven’t experienced it can understand.

Especially, as science has deepened, technology also has provided extreme advances, but to be responsible therapists, we have to continue to learn and consider.

  • @TheRootedTherapist
    @TheRootedTherapist 5 днів тому

    Love it! We need to revise how we view things as new research comes out, and I applaud you for re-considering past “known” facts. I think that there is such push-back on Cluster B personality disorders having a large genetic component because of how we view the world. We want to believe people can change, and the large heritable factor limits that quite significantly. The rubber band theory - PD folks can move a little if they do the hard work, but revert immediately in the face of any stressor. And we want to believe there is a reason why we are used and betrayed - hurt people hurt people - instead of the reality that the way they are made increases the likelihood they will believe they are entitled to act the way they do. I still agree that environment/upbringing can influence somewhat, but there is definitely no “Tabula Rasa”. The innate temperament is born. And if they’re difficult babies, kids who annoy the teacher by their behaviors, teens who are avoided by others because of their actions of demand or grumpy entitlement, etc. then they also get more negative feedback than peers or siblings without that genetic temperament. So, even without traditional childhood trauma, I can see how the temperament influences the environment and they can experience more punishment and negative social interactions, further feel like they aren’t liked and it’s them against the world, etc. So, that childhood environment ends up reinforcing the Cluster B traits. That is still not an excuse for their behaviors, and the reality is that allowing (instead of punishing) their behaviors in childhood isn’t a good option because it further allows them to act in unhealthy ways. I don’t know the answer on how to support pro-social behavior in childhood with kids with these extremely difficult temperaments, and that says a lot since youth & family work has been my specialty for 15+ years.

  • @laiia27
    @laiia27 8 днів тому +1

    Whether narcissism is mostly influenced by hereditary traits, or by a reaction to something traumatic , does either make a person sinister or morally wrong?
    Or does it stem from a reaction to negative emotions like anxiety and an attempt to avoid it? My own conformational bias tells me that the trauma responsible could be as simple as a failure of parents to recognize anxiety in their children who have a genetic predisposition to be extra sensitive to anxiety/negative emotions and therefore being unable to help them cope with anxiety/negative emotions in a healthy manner. And so many of us are so clueless when it comes to emotional health that it’s no wonder we can inadvertently be responsible for the development of personality disorders in our children with certain genetic traits and sensitivities.

My five siblings and I have been medicated for depression on and off again. Two of my sisters have been diagnosed with bipolar mood disorder but I believe I see aspects of borderline personality disorder in both. My mother had very strong but undiagnosed borderline and sociopathic aspects. So, based on this video your theory would be that my family is quite genetically challenged - as opposed to behaviorally challenged - as concerns personality disorders.

I married 3 narcissists over the years because that is what I knew and was comfortable with. I didn't like it but was comfortable with it. I have always said it must be genetics because why didn't I become a narcissist? I must have gotten a gene or two a few generations back that weren't narcissists. It is eerie now when I speak to my husband now that I am aware to see his total lack of empathy and he just doesn't get it or his lack on conscience. I would leave but he is 82 (and was a psychologist) and I am 73 so I'm not sure what I will do yet. He literally works to mentally try to destroy me as my family did but I ignore him now. Who does that?? Same with every narcissist I know. I think the 7% of the population is referring to the malignant narcissist like Trump which is the extreme. There are many degrees and people having "traits" versus NPD. If someone has no empathy I don't see how that can possibly be taught to feel empathy in therapy. It is like they have a missing a chip. Great information. My husband and I would have a fight right before bed. I would be up for hours upset and he would turn over and be snoring in 2 minutes. They feel no shame at all. I have also found that a narcissist cannot have a genuine conversation and they are evil. I am sure you know of Dr Vankin.

      Hi. Great question. I cover this in my book in more detail, but essentially, there are all kinds of genetic conditions and disorders that are not inherited by every single member of a family. This is often due to varying inheritance patterns and a phenomenon known as spontaneous mutation, which is, quite simply, a mutation or alteration that spontaneously occurs. If someone in your family has a personality disorder like narcissism, it is not a given that you will automatically have a personality disorder too. This is also the case with other disorders, including autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, and schizophrenia, to name a few. Two people from the same shared environment can be so different because of their personality traits and temperament from the start.

Once all of the giants were killed society forgot all about them, but the evil continues in the bloodlines, and the theory is that it is genetic through the male line in particular. That's why Jesus couldn't have an earthy father. Anyway, I have been convinced ever since that narcissistim is genetic, now you have given more proof of my theory. Not only that, but I had a friend growing up that was very controlling and bullied me , she was always like that from a very young age.
    Interestingly though, a lot of people who are narcissistic claim they were severely abused. Perhaps they are lying, but again, narcissistic parents are usually abusive so it is easy to draw the conclusion, even if it's wrong.

    Thank you so much Dr Salerno! I had too much life experience with immediate & extended family members who I now realise seemed to be exhibiting symptoms of Cluster B & other personality disorders, psychopathy & other mental & physical health issues. I have come to similar conclusions to you. I have to say though that even if a person accepts that the root cause of their issues is genetic, they could have a better life by trying in various ways to get on better with other people.

I read that it can sometimes be confused with Narcissistic Personality Disorder which both my daughter has (I was told and fully believe she is a malignant narcissist/psychopath) and her husband is also a narcissist but a better parent although he allows her to abuse all 4 children in different ways. This particular child is abused verbally, mentally & psychologically by her and sometimes his father. Have you heard of this? I just got your book on audible. I can’t wait to read it.

      Dr Salerno, if I can piggy back onto this, myself and many others have observed SO many large, extended families full of multiple generations of children diagnosed with autism and many people who show all the behaviors of Cluster B. Is there research being done on the genetic link between Autism, ADHD, and Cluster B? I understand they are not the same brain differences but there has to be a genetic link between them if so many families are full of both. I hope the question is not offensive to anyone.

      That's a bunch of bad assumptions. I was physically and sexually abused as a small child of 4 until I was 17, the sexual part only happened once due to my standing up for myself. There were six of us children and none of them are psychopaths, very normal and very successful except for 2 of the children who belonged to the abuser. Because of their genetics they were like their father, the abuser. Face it, it is genetics. I'm not saying we weren't affected, we were but not in the way you are speaking of. Relationships were more difficult for most of the kids except for me. I have been married a long time but who knows relationships are difficult anyway. If a person wants to be a failure or whatever they can always say poor me I was abused. It is a choice in other words not your mothers fault.

    Id note - Most genetic sources (parent) will (normatively) treble their influence as an environmental factor being also nurturer and behavioural teacher as well so its understandably ambiguous. But sibling variation is so frequently binary. While everyone is traumatised in varying degrees the pd type seems distinctly switched either on or off. Of three variations in relating to environment - respond to, seek out, and influence - that we "Evoke different responses from the environment" is ground-shatteringly pertinent!!!!!

    Yes, no maybe so. We generally believe people are hard wired to be nurturing and sexual. Accounts of feral children indicate little sexual interest in the majority of cases. In the experiment on monkeys where babies were raised with a wire mother. Those without comforting cloth grew up to have poor social skills. The males did not engage in sexual activity and the females submitted but did not nurture their offspring. Further this does not allow for nutrient and or toxin effects on the forming embryo. Also the gut biome and mitochondria are inherited but are affected by food, medications, stress and toxins. Their makeup and activity affects mental and physical performance. The environment can affect epigenetic expression. We are still figuring out how epigenetic expression can affect people. It's a complex mosaic, but thank you for reminding me of the critical importance of genetic inheritance. It's like you can't have blue eyes without the genes, but if one isn't blue then that trait is unlikely to be expressed or may have compromised expression.

  • @kreese316
    @kreese316 Місяць тому +2

    From what I am hearing today, genetics are the initial cause of personality disorders, and namely, cluster Bs. I’ll put this in my own words here so that I can ask questions. A baby comes into the world with a compromised brain via genetic mutations.
    Does this brain cause the cluster b personality disorder or cause a propensity toward having one or more PD? To what degree do ACEs contribute to the early formation of, or enhancement toward personality disorders? As sources acknowledge, trauma can make any cluster B traits harder to handle-- in others or oneself. ACE’s certainly create a different level of coping ability.
    I’m especially interested in the ability of different cluster Bs to make better choices and use self-control, with or without ACEs; especially those with NPD or BPD. The interplay of an NPD parent and a BPD child seems to be showing up and I’m watching for findings there as well.
    I’ll give an example and explain the connection of self-control and behavior differences. Though not differentiated in the current DSM, some clients with BPD and some clinicians have used the term, “Quiet BPD” to categorize different types of behaviors from the common client with BDP. While most (*up to 80%) with BPD have used self-harm to cope with extreme emotional dysregulation, it seems that there are a number of clients with BPD criteria, who choose to regulate their emotions more often with inward abuses rather than the outward of harming others.
    From what I’ve read and heard, they (Quiet BPD) feel the same extreme, tormenting pain as do all with BPD, but Quiet BPDs do whatever it takes not to harm others, ruin relationships, or lose jobs. Put simply, they try to act normally. Initially, this means that they choose to hurt themselves, isolate, or medicate in whatever way needed not to harm others.
    Coupled with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy tools, some clinicians find that it is easier to work with those who respond to their BPD with these Quiet BPD behaviors AND that they respond to therapy more quickly (don’t have data close by, sorry). An essential clarification is that the unofficial classification of Quiet BPD is not an indication that the client is quiet themselves. Or shall we say, a person with Quiet BPD may show consistently extroverted tendencies. It is the BPD that is “quieter,” not necessarily the person.
    I give the Quiet BPD example to ask about each of the cluster B’s ability to make choices (understanding how complex this can be with dual/more diagnoses and issues that may contribute). In other words, since we know through data that you have presented here that it is genetic mutations that initially cause cluster B traits, are we to understand that a person with cluster B cannot in fact change their inner experience? If they cannot change their inner experience due to their experience being caused apart from environment and apart from their response to environment, (meaning they started permanently disabled and will stay likewise) what ability do they have to change or to cope?
    It is certainly more convincing for those with partners and loved ones with cluster B's that the ability to change may be more questionable if a person was born with and permanently has a cluster B PD. This is why I am very interested in the ability to choose better behavior for those with cluster B. Does anyone reading know of any published work on this?
    As for BPD specifically, I’ve highly appreciated Dr. Daniel Fox’s work, in his publications and his UA-cam channel ua-cam.com/video/u_WS3vKT7iA/v-deo.html . There is massive hard data from both Linehan and Aguirre’s works that in fact people with BPD can do work that makes them no longer diagnosable with BPD criteria. What I don’t know is whether this is because the person changes behavior mainly, or whether they actually suffer less. If thousands with BPD are no longer diagnosable after treatment, what is the interplay with genetic, ACEs, healing as needed, and personal choice?
    As with any physical, mental, physiological, emotional issue, I believe to my core that most people can take whatever disability or trauma combination and impact at least some of the aspects through their attitudes, choices, and dare I say, love. I know, that belief is not very scientific and I don’t have or know of any study on love and dealing with one’s genetic mutations. But I have found that for those BPD clients who hate hurting others seem to work toward not doing so, and I would like it if they could also suffer less by making choices.
    Thank you in advance for reading my thoughts and any reply.

No one would say that someone is guilty of having a Tourette syndrome, for example. What are the treatment modalities then, that actually work on this? I believe there are specific personality traits that are difficult to uproot, but the person still can choose to tame their emotionality, learn communication skills, act in congruence with a moral code, etc. By repeated behaviour, also the brain and personality should somewhat adapt. Is it simply a matter of choice and working against innate tendencies, then? Is my assumption right?

      Hi there. I have heard of him, mainly because some individuals who comment on my posts use his name more as a weapon against me to try and prove that I am incompetent. My understanding, after reading a bit about his history, is that he is a self-admitted narcissist. However, when he was in prison for committing fraud, he was diagnosed formally as a psychopath. While psychopaths and narcissists can be very smart people and very successful and accomplished, I think we have to factor in the reality that even a "self-aware" narcissist or psychopath, due to the nature of how their brain is wired, and their deficiencies and impairments, may not be the most credible sources when it comes to talking about the very disorders they are afflicted with. This just makes sense to me. However, if people find his work helpful, and they can trust that his intentions are sincere, I'd say that's a good thing. Also, to reiterate a point in my video, it is very common for professionals in one field to be on opposing sides when it comes to research, and these arguments should considered helpful rather than problematic. I hope this answers your question.

Most of his information is very enlightening but as he is a self aware narcissist it does make me think that sometimes his intentions may not be pure. Sometimes I find that he contradicts himself alot for instance one minute he is appearing to help the victims of narcissistic abuse by giving them the information about narcissism and how to heal and the next minute he's telling the victims that there's no hope for them to heal from the abuse and that they are just going to keep on attracting the same sort of people to themselves because there is something inherently wrong with them and they projected the whole thing on to themselves because of their hidden psychodynamic expectations. It was really sadistic of him to say that and I think he enjoyed the victim blaming. I heard a few of his somewhat negative videos and wondered what his point was. I stopped trusting him after that and his constant referrals to self styled experts. I agree we all must be very careful about what we listen to but I for one want to learn as much as I can and form a well rounded balanced view. He is probably protecting himself and trying to monopolise the audience on this topic. He also had a very public disagreement with Richard Grannon and accuses him whenever possible of stealing his work. He can't help himself sometimes and the narcissism really shines through. I still watch him all the time as he is quite entertaining.

You can find the info in the DSM 5 I would say is the most accurate book on mental and personality disorders .

      I agree otherwise the narcissist can’t be held liable for his behaviour as after all he was born that way

    Could you list the main research papers that back up your assertions on this topic?

      To add, sorry if I do not want to read your book. It seems that your research papers that influenced you is all there.
      So I will assume that among one of the research papers that may have influenced you is the: A behavioural genetic investigation of the dark triad and the Big 5, Veron et al 2007.... They did not screen for childhood s*xual abuse amongst the twin participants... Yet claim they found a genetic link with twins....bad science there.

      To add further to the twin study genetic link: the Bouchard etc al 1990, on the big MISTRA study. Again, there was no specific screening for childhood abuse! The family Moos scale does NOT pick up abuse in the family. I have tried finding out what other scales and assessments they did, but it was mostly physical and checks on personality, IQ. Why??? When we are all debating here, let's debate the foundational studies of these genetic Vs environmental on personality disorders. You say twin studies but when people actually look into the methods used in these studies. Major missing data here on childhood abuse!! Why bring up these twin studies, as far as science is concerned at best these are casual linkages to genetic over childhood nurture for why people end up with personality disorders.
      Advice to people is read the data, look at how these studies are conducted and people can see these holes as clear as day.

    Did you see that owning a cat increases your chance of having Schizophrenia by like 60%? Toxoplasmosis yo. Those brain infections... That's the rabbit hole u should go down.
    It would seem to run in families but in reality the whole household is probably exposed to the cat box in the bathroom.
