What happens when narcissists find NEW SUPPLY

Just as you said, it’s about him - his facial expression is really a reaction to his internal experience/feelings of deep inadequacy.

[@Islamiciman]

Narcissists 👹👹👹

[@thunderpooch]

let me provide you an insight that clears everything up. the narc is NEVER really in a love bombing and charm phase. they are ALWAYS in the devalue and discard phase. they can't like or love people. they simply love bomb and charm to draw people in so that they can feed their supply and/or test their supply needs. they are always devaluing people. that's where they're permanently stuck. the charm and love bombing is just an empty tactic to suck people in. there's no honenst intent behind it. they didn't like you and never did because they're incapable of liking and loving people. when they shift to outwardly discarding you, that's the real them! internally, they're discarding and devaluing everyone they interact with ALL THE TIME! that's the secret! they don't like nor love anyone. they might charm others, but those people will soon experience the criticism and discarding....for criticism and devaluing and discarding others is at the core of narcs. the outward displays towards others means NOTHING. the narc can't love. narcs often discard fully when you become wise to them. and believe me, they are hurting, but only if you leave forever and entirely. this is good for the narc and the only thing that might get their ass in therapy and on meds. the narc leaves those that see them too clearly. treat a narc like you would a camera on set if you're an actor. no eye contact.

[@-norsecode-]

OMG! He did that, publicly, on FB, 2 weeks after he broke up with me using BIG lies. Two months later she cheated on him with his friend and is in a new relationship. Karma came swift and precise for him.

[@clericoflight476]

The part about the narcissist's phone being more interesting than you....that cuts deep. It's so humiliating to be out for a date night, or at a family event or casual hangout, and they're on their phone the entire time. Quietly communicating to you that they're bored and whatever they're looking at is more important than you. I go out to eat solo sometimes and I see this dynamic everywhere. I remember one particular incident where my covert XH was texting his new supply while we were at a breakfast date. I'm staring out the window humiliated while he gets narc supply from a woman who was supposedly an "abusive alcoholic who gave him PTSD." It's crazy-making.

[@cancer_moonchild]

Yep! My Ex Narc was always on the phone texting or staring at other women in front of me (I'm surprised his neck didn't hurt from all the head turning). He would also place his phone face down to hide the screen (something he never did earlier in the relationship). I never wanted/ needed to do detective work because his behaviour was in plain sight; I just used to observe.

[@NarcSurvivor]

They will lovebomb the new supply, flaunt them on social media and make you feel like you’re missing out. As though you’re bad or something is inherently wrong with you. Because that’s how they feel when the relationship ended with you. Everything they do after the end of the relationship is a response to their own rejection, which they’re projecting on to you.

I thought the same about my ex husband. I was completely broken for such a long time. Even though I left him. But slowly, little by little he has left my thoughts. And the space he youst to fill, became more and more full of more positive things and more positive people. And in turn I clearly saw how negatively my life had been consumed by him. I drove past him and his new supply the other day for the first time, and at the time I felt nothing. No sadness, no anger, no jealousy, nothing. 3 years after leaving, I’m now back to questioning why did he treat me that way, but I know that it’s only because I saw him and I know it will pass too. I’ll never truly have the answer to that, but apart from the odd blip, I am accepting that I’ll never know why and I’m grateful I don’t understand why, because it means I’m not like it. It will get better and you will be better for it.

A day later he wanted to “make sure [you] didn’t feel forced to break up with me.” And I told him, “uh, yeah I did.” Then the hoovering began. He asked me to “meet and talk,” scheduled a time to meet at a restaurant, and when I arrived asked me “what did you want to talk about?” He repeatedly brought friends of his to the restaurant where I worked and luckily I had a fantastic manager who helped me to avoid them entirely without being seen.

Why is it that when I’m around one, I feel so drained and lost, all the while they seem ‘productive’. When I get away from one however, I get better and have more time and energy, but they look so drained. They don’t respect your time but expect you to prioritize them.

[@LaMesaC]

Because they are energy vampires and take your "life force" you have that give life to things and people in your sphere. They don't have that light just darkness. They are dark demonic force entities that don't want good, light, love, happiness, joy or anything great happening in the world. GET AWAY FROM THEM!! YOU UNDERSTAND?? By them being drained means they are self destructing like they need to. They are addicted personalities and time wasters. Believe me, I married and divorcing one after six months. Was together one year, biggest regret of my life. I am getting my energy back. He discarded me like trash over lack of financial supply and chronic adultery. I am a spiritual empath and believe in sacred loyalty and commitment. We are the unicorn bada%sses the spiritual realm.

[@FromAshes444]

Because they feed on your energy. They’re energetic parasites. They need you to process their unprocessed shadow energy for them (which no one can do for another person), and when there’s no supply to be their “emotional dialysis” they’re soon poisoned by their own toxicity (unprocessed baggage).

[@camydiass]

The gaslight is so strong that we think that they ending the relationship is something sad, that we are not enough, that they are abandoning us but, really? We need to make the effort to internalize that the end of a relationship with someone who is sick enough to abuse you is not sad, its a relief even if you dont feel this way already. My relationship ended a month ago and I'm still going thru hell but I'm learning alot with these videos. Dr. Ramani is doing a life changing in my mind, day by day I'll recover myself, we are children of God and we DESERVE to be healthy, to learn to love ourselves enough to not be sad about a monster going out of our life. I hope that you find your path to have a healthy relationship with yourself, with your body, with your life and mind. Believe me, start taking care of your basic needs will make a huge difference. Drink water, go eat healthy food, go outside to just feel the sun in your face, you deserve better. ❤

Everything that Dr ramani is talking about discarding and devaluing happened to me with my ex husband. He drove me crazy. Had so much PTSD and anxiety’s they are pure evil. it’s all about them

[@rachael_grey]

We reached a settlement on Friday. His proposal statement was full of grievance and thinly-veiled accusations of negligence, foot-dragging, malingering, and greed. My attorney was genuinely surprised that his attorney included any of this, as it's entirely irrelevant. It's of a piece with my ex painting himself as my victim despite cheating, lying about it, gaslighting me so badly I became suicidal, and then suddenly ending our 20+ year marriage to chase his new supply. Looking forward to the finalization of this awful mess. I had no idea I married somebody this shallow.

[@sunbeam9222]

Love doesn't hurt. Love flows freely, independently of circumstances. What hurts is not knowing who we are well enough, not trusting who we are well enough. Because once we do, narcissists vanish from the surface of earth. We can meet egoistical people, we can meet deluded people, we can meet clowns but we don't care to investigate beyond that because boundaries naturally build. It's all about relationship with self. The rest manifests as a by product of that.

Self Compassion. Break the devaluation and discard- devaluation can last for decades. I'm a witness. I now understand why I never received emotional support when I attended college and started my own business. Her support was fake words in the air and not caring otherwise.

People pick up these traits from their intimate relationships and then they become narcissistic towards other people including their children and those who are weaker than them

[@cancer_moonchild]

My ex Narc apologised to me few months ago for any wrong he "may" have done which I was super suspicious about (the apology was so forced that he could barely look at me - completely dead behind the eyes). Then a few weeks before he is getting married chooses to email me the exact location and date)! He has moved abroad and told my son 2 weeks prior to leaving (because I told him if he didn’t I would)! He sees our son wherever it suits him. I've called him out as a sociopath/narc before, and wished his new wife is the karma he deserves. Of course, he took it as bad karma/ revenge; he obviously recognises what he had done to me over the years was bad!

[@redlikewineagain697]

UGH!!! Dr. Ramani, you described my relationship with my old high school boyfriend. Narcissists are like their own species. Yes, they are novelty seeking. I remember after high school (we were still together and broke up in our 20s...thankfully!) we ran into an old (male) friend and they were talking and I had gone off to the bathroom. When we were leaving, he leaned over and said into my ear "Yeah, so and so said you don't look as good as you used to." Another time I was talking about my hair (it was long and I was so hot) and he snapped at me, "You just want to cut your hair short and get fat like your mom and sister!" I was stunned. For the record, my mom and sister were not fat. I didn't even know what to say. All I have to say now is that I am so thankful that he cheated on me, I found out, and then ended it because he was such a toxic person.

[@paulettecrisman8666]

It was 30 years for me. I educated myself. I still live with him. It's 40 years next year. I am in dialysis because my kidneys are destroyed from highBP AND LITHIUM the Drs gave me to cope. He told everyone I m a broken down but case. I have nothing to do with those people. I've made all new friends. I can't convince my daughter he's wrong to my sorrow. I'm living my final years the best I can. He's very sick now with heart disease and diabetes. He has changed his beneficiaries. His icy hand of revenge. I am not afraid. God will provide. Pray for me

[@fishushu]

Family scapegoat here. My boundary was my mom killing the dogs by starvation as a punishment for them being dogs and wanting to play and accidentally scratching her. The second I got in her way of doing as she pleased and wasn't useful to her anymore (she used me as an excuse to get money from my grandparents), she discarded me... after months of psychological torture, demeaning criticism, bashing on everything I did, and all the horrible and scarring things narcissist parents do. I asked so many times what I did wrong, how I wronged her, why she hated me so much... and yet, I had no answer and still have none. It hurts, and I don't think it'll ever stop hurting, but I'm moving on.

10:07 My dating pool (gay men) is extremely toxic. Before I discovered your channel I had already noticed these patterns and implemented strategies that contain the damage. One of my anti-hoovering techniques is: My first offer is my best offer & second chances can be bought at increasingly unfavorable terms I can forgive anything, for the right price. I don't ever forgive for free. Call it me making sure you have skin in the game. Most of the time the guys disappear when they learn the price. For the other times... well I end up a few 1000 dollars richer. It still falls apart but I get something

[@Midg-td3ty]

TBH what I read here doesnt sound normal or healthy.. You let a narcissist suck you back in, in return for money ? So a rich narc can treat you however he wants and just pay you to forgive him ? You realize a couple of thousand dollar can be nothing for some people.

[@costelloandlizzievolk2233]

This is where I think I am at with a narc guy friend. I purposely friend zoned him because of some red flags.

I have recently been plucked out of a Very hostile marriage due to God's grace.

[@kellyjones5133]

My siblings attacked me in various ways during my recent father's death. My brother discarded me directly in front of the entire family while cleaning my late father's apartment. I am grieving many things. Members of the family are glorifying my abusive late father now, calling him a "Legend." I guess that's ok. A Legend is a story of someone or historical events. I find it hurtful to say but I think they all are narcissistic. Who else would glorify someone who was a known abuser throughout my entire life. My role in the family is the "Scapegoat." It is very much like a cult. I am struggling right now. I agree with what your saying. The emessement will be there regardless if we have contact or not. Mentally and emotionally the struggle is still there.

H told me that the great love of his life was a woman (who was also married to someone else) that he cheated on his FIRST WIFE with.

You know you're low on the narcissistic spectrum when you say under your breath, re: narcissistic men you may or may not have been involved with, go to it, and 100% mean, hope and wish it. No pining, no jealousy, no neurotic need to keep tabs (freaky bizarre and common, per men I have "seen") or see their relationships fail. May they find eternal bliss with someone else (being kind not to say new supply). I don't mean this casually, concerning spouses, though. Those might be worth working things out, especially if kids are involved; good luck finding a willing narcissist.

You did nothing wrong, don't twist yourself into a pretzel for a partner, their logic is so flawed you will break your back doing mental gymnastics trying to understand, stick to logic and reason, if it doesn't seem reasonable, if it isn't logical, if it isn't rational, walk away, narcissist are never rational or logical, they do and say things that go against the social norm, they seem off, you may think maybe their parents just didn't teach them social skills, maybe they never knew love, so we try to show them how, and why and that's when shit hits the fan, they reject all that is good and chip away every good quality and personality trait you have, don't allow them to do so,

[@mharris7380]

The worst thing for me is that everyone around (except the witness who was gaslighted by HR into thinking she didn't see what she saw) found some way to make me look bad. They were so determined to make me look like a monster they even said "tutting" at the narcissist was a bad thing to do. Not only did I never "tut" at her, but she and her flying monkey said I did it because she wasn't wearing her face mask. They didn't say to her "well, why weren't you wearing it, if you did, no one would tut at you") The thing is, I have over 350 audio recordings of my last year at work, so that final years bullying is all there. I couldn't use any of it in the investigation because I might have got sacked for misconduct, but I hoped to be able to use it in court, but the Union messed me around so much that I missed the deadline to take it to a tribunal. It's one thing to be treated badly, but when people are saying you are just as much the problem, it is like being abused by everyone. No therapist or anyone else who has claimed they will be able to help me has even shown any interest in going through the key moments of the 7 years to be able to confirm to me that I haven't gone crazy, it all happened and I was mistreated, and all my beliefs and conclusions were correct. That's what I need to be able to move on, but no one in the UK helps people with that. They try to say I'm deliberately holding on to the memories but I then explain how I have memories from many years ago that aren't about me, and didn't affect me. I don't know why they are as clear as if they happened yesterday, but they are. I don't choose to remember them, just as I am not choosing to remember my previous workplace.

[@shortperson781]

I am so sorry that happened to you. I am glad you are able to move on. The pain will always be there, but not as strong. You are loveable - remember that. Satan wants you to believe you aren't = it's a lie.

'"I've finally found the love of my life, so this is what true love feels like!" It's difficult because you once heard these words.' Uh, no. He never told me anything close to that, ever. Even when he proposed in his parents' den and told me all the plans that went wrong so he couldn't propose like he wanted to. It was more like, "oh, you look niiiice" (imagine a whiny, awkward twang in his voice when he says that, like it was completely forced) and then would grope me. I would be shocked if my STBX ever said that to anyone. Don't buy into their crap. They're not genuine, they just always want something to either meet their needs or boost their ego. Yep, I'm cynical because I'm fighting to get out of a 20 year "marriage" to one of these monsters.

I feel guilty about letting my girlfriend go. Our relationship started out great but turned really quickly especially when she drank. Became physically and emotionally abusive. Thanks for DR. Ramani and others videos, I backed away grey rocking her. She has now sought help for her alcohol abuse and is seeing councilors for her mental health. I still love her, but know deep down I have to let her go for my mental health. I hope she gets the help she needs even though she says I'm abandoning her in her time of need. If anyone can advise otherwise please do. It's been tough.

[@costelloandlizzievolk2233]

I am sorry you’re going thru this. I have been thru this with previous boyfriends. It’s super hard but you have to prioritize your well being. You are not responsible for her, so don’t let her manipulate her which is sounds like she’s doing accusing you of abandoning her. It’s a classic narc move. You can wish her well and let her go. It’s ok to take care of yourself. Keep your healthy boundaries for sure. 👍

[@Samaritan38]

I got a question for you, what do you see the two of you in the future?....Will the former relationship would last long enough regarding to your former gf's baggage? Do you think it's worth the time and effort fulfilling your life with someone who might not be really not into you to begin with? Dealing with a potential narcissist, it's carrying twice the heavy weight carrying on your shoulders. I'm recently divorced in a 18 year marriage with a covert narc and it was great at first, but in the latter, my ex started to show their red flags held high. Over time, my ex was acting incredibly defensive and I could tell my ex was lying stuff from me and even using me very out of marirital norm. So I started watching these YT from Dr. Ramani and I grew a "3rd eye". Later on, my ex decided to discarded me because we will be "miserable" together which as far as I know we weren't. So I asked my ex if she's being seeing someone else, and then my ex wasn't giving me a straight answer where I realized my ex was lying. From there, I left my ex for good and blocked from my phone. So to my conclusion, it's not your fault and I wouldn't be feeling guilty at all because I'm sure 10 times out of 10 your former girlfriend wouldn't care not even the slightest about you. Remember, narcissists are pretty much actors to use us into our authentic lives because they can't afford to be alone and overly defensive to their true selves, the narcs are literally afraid to the real world. So be strong, be self love, don't try to ruminate about the past (Its not easy, but itll take time to self heal) and don't try to fall into their trap because one way or another, they'll place a trap to fall for it. Best of luck to you, friend. P.S. keep watching those related NPD YT videos so you can have that "3rd eye". Once you get it, you'll be surprised and have self awareness.

[@sunbeam9222]

It's healthy to let go of someone abusive. That's all you need to know. You're not abandoning her you're abandoning that behavior of her, which is what any sane person would do.

And she knows that I understand why she does it . Her latest thing is that we will build a house in the country very soon ! Everytime she talks about this, I sneer at her , and say I wii believe it when I see it. Mike.
