      True. The narcissist I know is a hoarder; he places more value in things than people because he can't have fulfilling or intimate relationships with people. He ends up turning people into things.

    4:37 “Alone with a narcissist who feels that no one will know or see what they’re doing is a very dangerous place to be. They have no empathy, no morals, no integrity, and no impulse control. A narcissist who has never been physical abusive is a narcissist who has either never felt they could get away with it or who has never had the need to be physically abusive.

    When you leave or reject them it gets really scary. Then they blame you for the end of the relationship. We underestimate how crazy they are if we think they are jerks and cheaters. The emotional abuse is bad enough it makes you wish you were dead. But you never know when it can become violent. Even if they only do what we perceive as small acts of violence. Be safe everyone and don't tell your narc your plans of leaving them.

NO SHAME THE BOTH OF THEM. we were hosting a small gathering. He said he was going to bed. Later the now ex friend said he was going to use the washroom. She was up there a while. I was just about to go check up on her (thinking maybe she drank too much and was throwing up 🤦🏻‍♀️) just as I wa going up she was coming down looking a hot mess. I didn’t want to embarrass her and just asked if she needed water. Again I thought she was maybe throwing up. Fast forward 2 years and she finally told me the truth of that night.
      Made me sick how the two of them could do that. Then keep it and other times secret.

    @privateprivate8366 5 років тому +87

    Narcissists are dangerous not only on the minimal level that they feel entitled, see needs as wants, etc., but that it isn’t passive. Even when they don’t turn into physical abusers or murders, they work in a way that can kill one’s soul. Eventually, that will shorten your physical life.
    I’ve often said, “You can get away with murder - if you do it slowly enough.” When that came to me, I’d thought of it in the context where things like cigarette smoking or what’s in our food is concerned. I didn’t know about narcissism back then. But, it applies to this, as well.
    The sad thing is that it’s a sort of Death by a Thousand Cuts existence for a narcissist’s target and we often don’t realize it, until years have passed, which is further compounded by finding out and realizing that years have been lost to anything from barely-perceptible abuse to physical abuse, and being verrry angry about it.
    This twist on Death by a Thousand Cuts is further impacted by response from friends and family, who either don’t see the wrong in it or think that you are wrong. Just 2 days ago, when I mentioned to a friend that people think that one has to take care of themselves, particularly, if they’re single and have no one and that I’m sure that there are people who would feel that it was I who simply chose to leave my family, she said, “Well don’t close that door just yet!”
    In my mind, I had to forgive her naïveté, merely because I’ve become quite aware that people only believe things when the flames of Hell are lapping at their own ass. Never mind that she knows my mother has “issues”. Never mind that I’ve told her about the police picking up my mother, that my mother is psychologically abusive, that she called my job after I sent her a certified cease and desist letter. I know that there are people who believe life through their own experiences and nothing else can enter their mind. And, of course, most people who have even heard of the word narcissist, only know of it in its most casual use, which is that a person is simply arrogant. How harmful could that possibly be...

      because it's not right I am. I spoke with my mother yesterday, the conversation was pleasant and we didn’t argue. But, it doesn’t make me any less learned and aware of what she is and what she’s doing. As she’s done in the past, the purpose of the conversation is to keep the door open and to prove that she can have some agreeableness that narcissists often lack. But, as a narcissist, she doesn’t understand that it isn’t that I need to be agreed with. It’s that I need to be respected and treated well, without attempts at psychological, emotional and financial abuse. But, that’s not on the menu, when dealing with a narcissist.
      Sad though. Because I suspect with her that, it is sometimes as if she can’t get out of her own way. While there may be some dementia there, I know I have to realize that, while she seemed quite conscious in her attempts at being abusive and is able to maintain that trajectory long term, narcissism is as part of her basic functioning, in much the same way as a dog bites.

    If I stayed with my narcissistic girlfriend I really believe she would’ve started to physically abuse me. Later in the relationship I began to notice that the more I avoided allowing her actions to effect me the more mentally and verbally abusive she became. Her tantrums worsened even up until she threatened to leave me if I didn’t do what she wanted me to. I just said, “I guess we’re broken up then.” And left. She began hoovering, so much that I had to block her on everything to avoid her.

    Thank you for this Podcast. If you were raised by pathological narcissists, then you know for a certainty that narcissists are extremely dangerous. Narcissistic parents will do anything to control their children. When their children try to assert their own identies, this is perceived as a threat to the parents' ego. You talk about the life threatening reaction of the narcissist and I believe this to be true. In this circumstance, the narcissitic parents perceive the children as direct extensions of themselves. They believe that they own their children and can do anything that they want to do to them. The child who asserts their own identity is perceived as a threat to their own identity and this is never tolerated. They will severely punish the child if they don't conform to the parents' every whim or wish. The child who grows up in that environment is more prone to choosing narcissitic partners. As an adult survivor of abuse, he/she may suffer violent punishment from the parents and then with a partner. This subject once again points to the issue of self esteem. The violent aggressor is suffering from an extremely low self image. When they feel that they cannot control their partner, they will perceive this as life threatening and therefore assert control over that person in any way possible. This can even lead to a fatality. That is why it is so important to recognize unhealthy relationships.Trust your own intuition about people and pay attention to red flags.

I see the affects my childhood has had on me in my adulthood and I’m trying my best to heal those wounds so that I may be a healthy whole person. In doing so I have chooses to stay single until fully healed.

  • @victoriastanton4497

    My father's two favourite sayings that we grew up on were, "do what you want when you want to do it, but make sure you really want to do it" and " to thine own self be true" and he meant it and always always did just that, no matter how bizzare or terrifying it was. This included harming people and animals towards the latter part of his life.
    This was also fuelled + + + by alcoholism, where he sometimes wandered around waving knives or darts, stating we all deserved to be dead. Some behaviour was sadistic in nature. There had to be obedience at all costs, exercising power and control......... if not, somebody or something had to be the target........not happy until he'd made someone cry, or dismissed us as useless and unworthy of his attention........ as he'd storm off in a rage....etc., it was always someone else's fault he did this or that.........no empathy or understanding of how anyone else felt etc., etc.,
    He would be completely bewildered and have no recall of any of his behaviour the next day. Promptly getting very upset because no one was being nice to him. I have witnessed his actual violence towards other people on a few occasions, one in particular was brutal. He was a "terrorist bomb" waiting to go off. Tourmented soul.
    He took his own life at 52 years old. It was a relief and probably for the best for us because the older he got the worse he got. What was he capable of ......... more and more? However, the other side of him was charming, funny, generous, impulsive, spontaneous, kind, helpful, wild, adventurous, spectacularly silly etc., etc.,
    Beware...... he could change on a penny......... a crazy terrifying, lovely man. Over the years since his death, I've gone from total hatred.......(I was 17. I found him dead. I laughed and slowly clapped........."hmmm, So this time you really did it" and happily rang the doctor to tell him I thought my father was dead)......to forgiveness and understanding him and the reasons why why etc, and I guess I kinda like, respect him and find I loved him. It's been a long long journey, I'm now 72 but 21 at heart.
    Some people, no matter how much you love them, are just too dangerous and destructive, and, yet, too wonderfully lovely all rolled up into one.
    Not telling anyone what to do, only you know your own special circumstances. All I'd say is do what's right for you, and your family. Not what you think is right for them, never, never, never. No matter what you can never change or help them. Basically, my message is please protect yourself and your family from any kind/degree of harm from the people who are supposed to love, cherish and nurture you.
    Wishing you all the blessings in the world as you travel your journey through the jungle into the light. Thank you little Sharman your wisdom and understanding have rung so very true to me today. I send you and your family all blessings. Nice to see you back, thank you for fighting so hard for us. God bless and keep you safe x x

    Another thing I'd like to point out is when you said if a narcissist hasn't been physically violent it's because they I didn't think they can't get away with it or they haven't needed to yet- it's actually if the narcissist hasn't been physically violent to YOU. They may have never laid a hand on you but you don't know what they've done in their past and who they hurt. I had to go live with my grandparents when I was 10 and if I'd been a boy my grandfather would have beaten me to the ground just like he did his son. My grandmother was more abusive to her daughter and then to me but she had gotten older and frailer and had lost the ability to beat me into the ground. When I was younger I used to say to myself well they never laid a hand on me and then I started thinking about it and thinking about all the things I'd heard and seen over the years and putting the pieces together. I would lump other forms of abuse in with that as well. Just because there's not been any sexual abuse means that that's just not something they wanted. Doesn't mean that they're not capable of it . It's just a matter of preferences like flavors of ice cream. If they'd wanted that particular flavor they would have taken it. Best you can do is get away develop strong boundaries and protect yourself

    • @mvbigmagic4048
      @mvbigmagic4048 3 місяці тому

      Yeah, it's true that just because they didn't do it to you, doesn't mean they didn't do something heinous to others. Simply because they didn't want to. In the months leading up to my dad's death, he told me that he left my aunt to die facedown, when he walked in on her that morning. She'd fallen out of bed, and he said, "I just turned around, and she died." Couldn't even let the woman die with dignity in her freaking bed. I think he only told me that so that in case he fell, I would get him back in bed......... well, my mother stole his wallet, and he accused me of stealing it. I saw the writing on the wall, and left. So if he fell out of bed and died on the floor, I don't know. These people are scary, and as they age, they only get worse.

    I love the quote about integrity. after yet another pointless argument about my narcs dishonesty, I wrote this quote on our bedroom mirror in large letters with lipstick! As you said, I think we've all had those moments where we had the urge to do something that wasn't right and many of us probably did when we were younger but for most there comes a point of maturity and realization that it's important to have respect for yourself and your decisions, even when no one is looking. A lack of Integrity, in my opinion, is yet another example of the emotional immaturity of narcissist.

    I just thought of the perfect analogy to explain to people who only witnessed our relationship from the outside why I stayed when my Narc was so cruel, sabotaging, and undermining, even when he was undermining my art career, which was the thing that he not only latched onto me to raise his glamor profile, BUT THAT HE WAS COUNTING ON TO PROVIDE FOR HIS FINANCIAL NEEDS.
    The SeeSaw effect analogy:
    If a kid got onto a Seesaw and it was really fun for enough time for them to expect that to continue, and then in the balanced position, the kid on the See end suddenly stopped, then the child on the Saw end would just get off and run away after a time.
    The Narcissist gathers information and keeps the Seesaw going just enough to prevent that from happening, then they keep testing how much they can get away with before you jump off the Saw end. Sometimes they leave the Saw up there so long, Saw kid kinda freaks out, maybe tries to jump off, and then the play is back on. On the way back down, Saw kid gets told what a weak little baby they are, so then Saw kid has to prove that’s not true, and it’s really fun again, until it’s not.
    IN OTHER WORDS, JUMP OFF.
    You’re just their Saw, and they’ll never See!
    And if you’re here, you probably already Saw.

    I needed this video today. Recently some anonymous person created a "revenge" post on social media about the Narcissist. There are captured screen shots of phone texts describing sexual liaisons. Another individual came forward and accused the Narcissist of selling their body and creating porn (they even knew the frequency for which these acts were occuring)... there was also mention of some sort of love affair (The Narcissist in question here has been married for 8 years). The comments went further into accusing the Narcissist of fraud and that they would go to prison. The Narcissist had no hesitation in pissing these people off which Im sure has other consequences attached to that.
    Not once, did I ever think this person would cross the line into this behavior. I know drugs are a problem for this individual and yet, I still didn't think they would do something like this. I've done considerable research on those people who are highly addicted to drugs and a lot of their traits are narcissistic in nature- not in touch with reality or its consequences, limited to no empathy, constant state of anxiety when looking for the next hit or high.
    I remember the Narcissist telling me once he would wake from dreams, absolutely horrified about the things he had done or said... and he didn't know if they had been real experiences or not. That he needed his wife to tell him what reality was. Could you imagine? Not being able to discern what is a dream or what is reality? Or to not be in control of yourself, that your actions are comparable to a nightmare?

    People who knew about the abuse often said things like, "Do you really think he would have killed you? You made it this far without that happening so he's probably just making empty threats." The thought of going to prison for killing me kept him from doing it. He did not want to suffer something like that because of something so vile and lowly as me. If he killed me, it would be my fault he went to prison and that just wouldn't stand. He would threaten, but then back off and tell me I should just kill him instead, put him out of his misery. He relished the thought of me going to prison because of him. He denied any abuse, physical or otherwise, while at the same time saying he treated me badly because I was weak and it made him sick. There is no reasoning with a narcissist and no satisfaction in doing anything except leaving.

      @@garyr1934 I'm sorry to hear that. :'( Perhaps his own narcissistic tendencies (lying is usually narcissistic) won't be AS BAD as his mother's? One can hope. And he is still young... don't give up hope just yet. You're still a role model, so model truth for him and maybe one day he'll 'get it' that you're not his enemy, and that his mother has done him a disservice.

    Wow you really hit the nail on the head in this video the Narc I was with would always say “I need that laptop” or “I need those $300 running shoes” even when he could not pull his equal weight in paying our bills. I would try to explain to him those are wants not needs. We need a roof over our heads we need food to eat. A laptop and shoes for play and show are things you want not need. As a married couple I believe our basic needs like shelter and food come first.
    He told me I was controlling and he was an adult and could spend his $ however he wanted. I tried to explain that as a married couple we were supposed to be a team. Make choices together. This he did not care about at all. Still went on to say “I’m an adult and can do whatever I want”
    I said you choose to get married. So that means being a team. You can just reap all the good things of marriage and not care about your obligations to the marriage and me as your wife.
    Again I was told by him “I’m an adult and will do whatever I want”
    Besides the above there were many other issues and I choose to leave him dec 1 2017. It’s been 2 years out and 8 months full No contact. So proud of myself and how far I have come. Good luck to all you fellow survivors out there and stay strong always

    They are absolutely dangerous! Mine has been threatening to kill me now for about a year. The last thing he told me when he thought I was leaving was "he was gonna kick in my door come in my room and cut my head off before anyone ever noticed. So what are the cops gonna do? How is calling the cops gonna help you? Your head will be cut off before anyone can even call the cops let alone get there in time to save you. Do you really think I care about going to prison for the rest of my life? My life sucks anyways and if I can't have you why bother living anyways"? That's another reason why we become so afraid to leave these people. I have three sons who already lost their dad and he knows how bad it hurts me to think about being murdered and leaving my kids with no parents.

    Cut the drive belts,radiator hoses,loosen the tire lugs on your car,sneak around the outside of your house at night,come and "check up" on you. Get information from the children about how their living situation is,how is their Mom is, so the parent can take information to their attorney to try to get custody.Narc parent will shame or bait the children to reveal information about the other parent.Other parent finds out , then the children are punished for that,etc

    OMG! The necklace analogy is spot on for a past experience I had with a Narcopath. I make jewelry, necklaces and key chains with glass beads), I had already gifted the Narc one of my key chains and necklaces the week before, but the Narcopath asked me if she could see my necklaces once again, so I put them out for her to view and she rudely grabbed a certain necklace from the table along with another Christmas gift I had for someone and she walked out of my house. I WAS IN SHOCK! Because that particular necklace and other gift was specifically made for someone as a Christmas gift and the Narc knew that. It took her almost 1 year to pay me for necklace and I had to make another Christmas gift for my friend. The Narc has never apologized for taking the gift or the necklace.

    A big red flag is they all act weird. They have a gaze and there all weird acting. It's a big red flag in new relationships. Once u know what to look for u can't miss it. I'm not afraid to date again because I know I'll see it at some point. And I'll run once I do. U will see it once u know the red flags. I'm not beating myself up anymore for not seeing it sooner. It took as long as it was gonna take and now it will stick. I've worked to hard to get over all this OMG the emotional work the pain the hurt the shame feeling like such a fool feeling so dam stupid.im not doing this anymore. I'm not beating myself up anymore. The main thing is I learned the lesson now. And now it will stick. That's all that matters. Not ever letting it happen again and it won't. It won't happen again. I've had enough. It's over!! Now I find REAL love. I'm just going to concentrate on my career and I'm working on getting a car. That's my goal and that's more important than beating myself up. It's been a year and that's enough. It's time to move on!

    What was very very difficult for me, and still is, (though nc for years now), that my ex really showed empathy, deep empathy sometimes. And no, that moment he did not wear a mask. For instance: We were drinking a coffee in a bar and I told him my son (not his son be he knew him rather well) had a relationship. Which was very special because of some birth deficit of my boy. I looked away quite some time from nex to look at some people who were coming in the bar. When I looked again to my n-ex he was teared up. He, what is happening? I asked. 'Well I wish him so much luck' he replied. I am sure it was no manipulation. I 'caught' him accidentily in the act of tearing up. There were many more moments (but always just moments) like that and I, the empath that I am, derived from that the conclusion that he really did have empathy deepdown.That was my pitfall. Because you are right, Little Shaman: he had it, but it was very poorly adapted to the rest of his life and personality. For sure he was a narcissist, diagnosed as well after a while. The narc construct that covered these 'pure moments' was there for about 95% of the time. But up to this day I do not think all his behaviour was a mask, I know authenticity when I see it. But, in the end it was not workable in a relationship and it took me a very long time to acknowledge that. Your vids helped, though. Thanks

    It is scary when in a family situation the narcissist is enabled by a codependent enabler validating every bad thing the narc does. This includes losing custody of her first child because she was drunk and pissed so used her kid like a rock and threw it at her boyfriend, putting a loaded gun to her cousins head because he was teasing her and stabbing someone with a steak knife for not letting her run up a huge phone bill. Dangerous, yes. Nobody taught her right from wrong. She learned that she can do as she pleases and if someone doesn't like it, the enabler will smooth things over.

    Well, this is terrifying. The wants vs needs really hit home. My grandma has no comprehension for wants vs needs. I've explained wants vs needs so many times. Nope. No comprendo.
    Also, going back to a boyfriend years ago... "You're taking my grand-daughter from me." She got in his face and said it over and over.
    And she has punched me in the face. Never got an apology. Came home from work, she stalked me around the house till she got mad I wasn't giving her attention. She started a fight for attention.
    Then, BOOM! I got punched in the face by my grandma for no real reason other being too tired when I got off work to deal with her.
    I have wondered if she would ax me. It seems so absurd to say that about a "sweet, little, old lady grandma". I never even told anyone she punched me, cause #1) Nobody would've believed it. She's known for being so nice. #2) I downplayed it to myself ever equipped to take any and all blame. 3) Who's punched by their grandma? Just acknowledging it makes me feel weird. Like I'm a weakling whining about the bullying of a vulnerable old lady that surely couldn't hurt me.
    But you know what? In more ways than one it really hurt. She socked me pretty good right on the nose.
    And everyone she's ever mad at she hopes will die. I come home from work one time with her and my 2nd cousin waving around a loaded gun. My grandma was actually trying to convince him to go and kill my great grandma's step kids.
    Why?
    They were helping to take better care of my great grandma. That's what was at the root of what had really made her mad.
    Hindsight's 20/20 & this is scary.

They don't run around with a bitcher knife, but they do things that can result in harm or even death, and they do not care. Also legal and finacial harm. But physical harm as well. People don't know that about them.

    You have taught me so much about Narcissism. I thank you for helping me keep my sanity. My identical twin sister has been married to a pathological narcissist for 40 years. Our relationship has been severely damaged. Many years of no contact. After 8 years of NC they hovered and we gave them a chance with a warning. It lasted just under 2 years. Her family (kids) are estranged from them. I now know that they hovered me because I was connected to their daughter and her kids. I am 62 years old and I am struggling with grief of knowing I will never speak with her again. Q: After these many years of narcissistic abuse is my twin a narcissist as well? I see many traits and behaviour from her. Ps. Her adult children are narcissistic.
