I have to listen to a co worker tell me how he hates his job and has three to four job offers every week. But never takes one. Then he tells me. Neil. You should be the one to quit your job. It would be so easy for you ro just quit because you don't have a wife or girlfriend to worry about. Then I go silent but get in trouble from management for having an attitude and being disrespectful Because. When I dont talk to coworker he complains saying I am moody, upset and have bad attitude.

@@carolcole570 With narcissist I would say demon possessed. Some of them literally have memory gaps of up to 80% of their life. That means something else or their other self or selves were in control 80% of the time. You have to realize that the narcissist as a personhood is atrophied and a shell of who they once were or could have potentially been. What they show you is not them as a person because their person has been trapped in a paralyzed mental laboranth for years to the point they can no longer express their true selves and many believe or would say their true self no longer exist or is dead. What happens when an unclean spirit or spirits finds an empty shell? I'm heavy into spirituality so that is the lense I look through. Outside of this I believe every narcissist has been injured and it just creates a vicious cycle of injury and madness.

[@felicitybywater8012]

When I left home, my narc father literally couldn't speak. I had saved up from 15 to 17, and concealed those savings, to get a safe place to run to. I also very carefully made it look as though I was finally utterly beaten and be his whipping boy all my life. Then came the day I left. Both he and my mother were at the other end of the house, I hurriedly packed my bag and tiptoed out of the house. I was halfway down the driveway when my mother saw me and called to him. He stood there in the doorway goggling at me in confusion then rage. He was so enraged his mouth just moved aimlessly. My mother did what his hand painfully gripping her shoulder ordered her to do and called me back inside. I left. Best day of my life.

I think a narcissist is terrified of people around him knowing who/what he really is. As a wife of a narcissist I covered for him and made excuses. Recently I informed him that k would no longer do this and would tell people exactly how he acts, what he says. This stopped him dead in his tracks. He had no comeback.

[@Stardustpal25]

Bravo. This came for me, picked up my ph camera to film his raging, sulking. Said one word, Proof, told him to pack up. Yes, I was terrified, but I couldn't stand it literally to be near or literally have such a dark spirit in my home. My reaction was as if Id been thrown in with a tiger. That footage was enough to force him to know his game was over. Looking back, this could have had different outcome. The other fear is questioning Future Fake stories. X would get mad at any clarifying questions. 😂🤝❤️

[@MysticalDyl]

I moved in with a “friend” (was just using me bc he needs a hand to hold and is super insecure). He started talking crap behind my back about how I ditched him and so on. It was because I moved in and he was treating me like he was trying to assert dominance (my mom was a narc and my brother) so I’d be nice to him but keep my distance. I was always the one to say hello tho and ask him how his day was. Then he started giving me the silent treatment bc of it and that’s when I realized something was up. Then our other roommate told me after I asked him if I was right 😂 he treats everyone like shit but has money so uses that and his mommy issues and daddy issues as a cop out (I’m not one to dismiss someone’s feelings but he just seems way too entitled and knows he’ll get away with things. He’s also the youngest in his family and tries to always overshadow my problems when I’d try and talk with him to maybe get him to open up). So after I heard him say enough shit about everyone and talking about others behind their back to me and the people around us, I decided to call him out on it, nobody was around bc his gf walked away as I started. But now they all give me the silent treatment and won’t go in the living room unless theres someone with them. 😂 it’s just crazy how pathetic some ppl can be and I’m sorry you gotta deal with that

After I cut all ties he stop reaching out. About 2 weeks I was awoken up out of my sleep saying, what is going on with Richard, why I feel he in the hospital. So said so done. When I call around he was in the intensive care unit. Nobody knew what was wrong with him. I made a mistake and went to look for him. Big mistake. His wife found his cell phone with all his lovers men and women. I only texted regular stuff. When he awoken he threw me under the bus and told his wife I was crazy and all those people in his phone was me.

Yep, but my Sister went further! Did a character assassination with friends and family! She's trying to control our elderly parents, and at times screams at them.

My Parents are so used to her yelling they say well you yell too, and that isn't true! Recently at holiday parties she yelled in front of guests! I know have witnesses... she'll just say we were mean to her and that stressed her! She recently came to my house when my daughter had permission to be here. My Sister manipulated her way in and told her she could help clean whikecwe were out of town! I had already told my Sister I did nit need her help. I see her OCD/OCPD symptoms. My house has extra stuff as my Son moved out of a 2 bedroom apt to travel for work. So, we certainly didn't need help with untrustworthy relatives going through our things while we are storing my Son's thing. My Daughter realized but couldn't get ger to leave! We feel invaded, traumatized., criminalized even... then when I didn't show appreciation she decided to tell our friends abd relatives how bad my house us fill of trash! So disrespectful!'I have no idea still what to do! Get screaming at my folks takes top priority at this time as ut is believed she is trying to discredit me to get my POA over a few of my parents finances. My only retaliation has been to tell a couple of relatives & Friends that she seems outvif dirty with being a widow for 10 years and we need their prayers! In reality she's been like this in a milder way her whole life ...we just called it Bossy! At 70 I'm feeling close to a heart attack trying to cope! 🙏

She exploded, accused us both of conspiring against her (he had no clue I'd call and ask about something from years ago) and kicked me out of her parents house where she was living. She was using that story to confirm her claim of my abusive ways (which I wasn't) to validate her taking the kids away. I'm thankful for that because that was my wake up to her ways. I had believed her gaslighting for years, doubted my own perceptions and memories, reality was confusing.

No matter how hard I try I can’t bring myself to feel sorry for him or even wanting to step in and help him. He has alienated all of his family and friends in his final years and has become unbearable to be around. Everyone has always known but tolerated his behavior but that ship has sailed. He will unfortunately leave this world all alone. 😢

And they are nothing only bc they insist on depleting everyone around them. It's not that they have nothing to give, it's that the only thing that feels good & right to them is to rob others of their self-esteem/self-worth, time, energy, dignity, etc & never face any consequences for treating people like shit. They feel entitled to take from others without giving anything in return (the core wound is toxic shame from childhood, but you could explain it perfectly to them in plain english & they will never accept it & work on themselves. They can't fathom that earning & maintaining complete trust & emotional connection with another human being could possibly feel & be a trillion times more enriching & rewarding than constantly lying to them, manipulating them, exploiting them, using them, betraying them, draining the life out of them, etc.)

All of these points are so true. The ex was only home after work a few hours when he was in port and gone 6 months out of the year. But in retirement and being around him full time, his true colors really came out. Especially after i had a stroke. Boy they are cold when you can't get things done for them..That was first time he swung at my head.. He was mad cause he had to make himself a sandwich. Lol. Heaven forbid. That was enough for me. I made plans while i recovered as much as i had to function and left. It was scary . 58 and starting over being the first time i was out all on my own. I got my first apartment and started to find myself of the things i liked and the freedom to do so. No kids or anyone to worry about. I even got to rest after work and sleep without interruption. What a treat. . It's the best thing i ever did. They say the only way to survive a narcissist is to get away. I got away from all of them.i hadn't talked to my dad in 27 years, too. Just found last summer he passed in 2019. It sounds bad, but it was a relief never having to worry him ever show up again after moving back to the west coast. I never talk to my ex and 2,000 miles from him too. Court ordered no more threats and in a security building. Lol. That was 11 years ago. Time as flown by and after a few years I've got peace. Its really nice to have. 😊😊 i hope everyone here and be ok too. Some stories are heartbreaking. I wish everyone well. Its not easy i know. But don't give up. I was told there's light at the end of the tunnel. It didn't seem so at the time but its true.

I found this to be absolutely true. I recently found out I'm on the Spectrum. I'm also exceptionally sensitive. A lethal comb for a parent who can't handle anything truthful, reality driven or involves emotions. It must have been Sheer TORTURE for my mother to deal with me on any level my entire life. She's at the end of her's & I'm healing. Hopefully the God she believes in so dearly will forgive her for her treatment of everyone during this life she's spent torturing her family. I used to feel bad for her, watching her body degrade and become feeble. I got over it. I realized during one simple accusatory exchange that she is STILL just a sad, pathetic but nasty, manipulative woman who has been miserable her entire life. What a waste. She has left nothing but pain and destruction in her wake. The entire family is now completely dismantled. Just how she wanted

As a daughter of a narcissist, I think my mother is most afraid of loss of control over myself and my siblings. She is always trying to keep us apart and angry at each other. She goes from one house to another running down the sibling of the house she just left. She totally remembers my childhood wrong in a way that makes her look good and everyone else is remembering it wrong.

[@giftij]

That last one! A recent narc i encountered for an extended period of time! He was so tired of the authenticity. What i realised was that he was working so hard to love bomb serveral people and then immediately operationalize devaluation . Then stepped in me, the authentic enlightened one😂 putting everyone on their realest pedestal with continuous words of encouragement day in day out. Those simple acts seemed to put his devaluation step to a complete halt and forced him back into love bombing to keep up his image and avoid risk of exposure. The rage! They truly are tired of authentic people. Not just cos of envy but its that authentic people raise the bar of lovebombing for them, making them work harder than they planned to😂😂😂

[@CharlieApples]

I had a very strange thing happen recently when I told a narcissistic person in a work group exactly what I thought of them, then led the project by doing a huge bulk of the work myself out of frustration. After the project was over, another coworker came up to me and told me that [narcissist] has a crush on me, and is going to ask me out. I was…confused and uncomfortable to say the least. And when they did ask me out, I told them no and that I don’t date people I work with, and to please not bring this up again. They’ve asked me two more times since then and only stopped when I threatened to report them for harassment if they don’t drop it. Now they’re asking every other person we work with for personal details about myself (where I was born, how tall I am, how much I weigh, what my hobbies are, what my past relationships were like, etc.). It’s extremely disturbing, but I’m letting them dig their own grave and documenting it every step of the way. I refuse to let them chase me out of this job, because I earned it.

Thanks Danish for explaining everything so well. I wish I could talk to you in person about my daughter. I think she's narcissistic although there some things that don't match to her. When she was little she was diagnosed with ADHD, she used to have huge tantrums and she was very defiant. When she became a teenager, she was obsessed to be popular, and she started to be with bad crowds. Her dad left us and she got worse, she started blaming me for everything that when wrong in our lives. She even became aggressive towards me. I had to call the police on her twice and they took her to jail. All my life I had helped her in everything, I mean Everything... but she is very ungrateful. She have two kids that I had helped raise them since birth and they're my life. Now she is 36 and I'm 61 , and I have lupus and she is living with me now because she left the kids father because he is abusive. But now in my house she is controlling everything, she is very loud and her music too and she is always arguing and I tell her, to be considerate with the neighbors but she doesn't care. She wants me to help her with her chores around the house, and with this lupus sometimes I can't even get out of bed. She doesn't pay anything in the house and I don't care I just tell her to respect me, but I think I'm asking her too much. Anyway I think if I continue I can write a book 😢. My heart ❤️ to all the mothers that have the same situation, because we love our daughters and sons so much. What is helping me in this situation is my faith in the Lord. 🙏 Danish, do you have a video about how a person develope narcissism? Do you think is hereditary?

All my housework was done and everything I needed to do was done. So I put it aside and went and sat with him and we watched TV. What he wanted to watch.

All of these are so so true Danish. #1 is interesting. My ex narc. husband remarried and his first child with this family is autistic and completely non verbal. I can only just imagine how unhinged this must make him, given the manipulations he performed on the members of our family. #3 is exactly my situation. Strong sense of self and moral compass. Was like a magnet to my narcissistic ex husband. He was constantly in a state of debasing me or knocking down. I asked my mother once, not at that time realizing that she too, is a narcissist. Why is everyone I come into contact with, always trying to thwart me. She said "you are just one of those people that everyone wants to knock down a peg or two". I was like WTF? A mother tells this to her daughter. Now it all makes sense.

Thankyou Danish for making this video. Everything makes so much sense to me now. I was in a relationship with what I now know to be, a malignant narcissist and in the space of 8 months, I became a shadow of my former self, mentally crushed, no self-esteem, feeling worthless and constantly insulted and called fat. I was told the reason he had cheated was because of me so ultimately it was my fault, not his. I even ended up having therapy as he convinced me that my mental health was having a detrimental effect on the relationship and I needed to change. He said my jealousy and paranoia was a real problem for him. He used to say that all his former girlfriends said he was the best in the bedroom! Ha really. He spat in my face then couldn't remember doing it the day after he got so enraged. When I ended the relationship and kicked him out, he said he had never loved me and he had tricked me all the time and I was so stupid I never realised. I didn't know whether I was coming or going half the time, what was real...I was so upset one day and he stood there and just laughed. He constantly said inappropriate things in front of my friends and family and made other people think he was a wonderful human being. I hope I never have the misfortune to ever encounter a narcissist again. They are the lowest of the low.

I appreciate your videos so much. My ex was a covert narcissist although I wasn’t aware what it was so many years ago. I thought I loved him deeply and he really drug me through the mud. Only understood when my daughter revealed herself in a brutal way to me a couple years ago. She called me an idiot for not knowing she was covert and told me she never loved me while also cutting me off from her newborn daughter I had been helping her take care of while she was recovering. It’s been two years and I realize I’m the lucky one because I’ve been recovering from her gaslighting and other mistreatment I had resigned myself to enduring. I have woken up and know I’m worth more. Her baby will be growing up with that treatment and my son recently told me she kicked the father of her baby out, lying saying he was abusive. I had watched her mistreating him and before she discarded me he was being nasty to me because she had lied saying I was abusive. He probably still doesn’t understand what happened to him with the manipulation. To not be able to see my granddaughter is heartbreaking, but I know she’ll try to alienate her daughter from her own dad. Doesn’t matter he was an ass to me even though I had done nothing to either of them, but he deserves to be able to see and have contact with his daughter. I remind myself daily not to be all soft wishing for a relationship with her or my granddaughter because if she ever comes back around I don’t want to be used and thrown away like trash again. If her ex was to fight for custody I’d definitely be on his side.
