Essential Information: Narcissists, Sociopaths aka Narcissistic & Antisocial Personality Disorders

[@biddymc777]

Content is amazing but I think many people will miss out as they won’t engage due to poor quality of audio. You don’t know anyone until you tell them no.

[@apricotcookie4850]

Ross, would you be able to re-record this so that the sound quality is better? It's very distracting and I can't finish listening, sorry.

[@lindsay5305]

I could listen by following the transcript. Otherwise I was same

[@hurricaneaquatics]

Yeah I can't listen to this, sounds like an 40 year old tape.

[@tad1111]

It happened to me, fast intimacy, I I'm shy and lonely. I ignored the red flags .

[@katthompson3852]

Love this video! On point and a great refresher! Looking forward to the new book.

Hi Dr Rosenberg, there is a card designer called Katie Abey that uses the "Observe, don't absorb" thay you developped. I just saw it, I hope she has asked your permmision to use. Thank you for all the work you do

Taker needs a giver. 👍👍

To me it's simple, bonding/connection are at the bottom of their list of wants, maybe not even on the list at all and if so it for personal gain... they want power, money, fame, personal gain and fun which if you are someone with no empathy OR CHOOSE to not acknowledge intuitive empathy (many narcissists) then fun is messing with people's lives, destroying others because many personal gains also come along with that. So these people have zero interest in being "fixed/healed" because that means giving up personal gain (which is their no.1 objective) and choosing to form give and take empathetic relationships (which they have no desire for), so to be cured gives up everything they want to take on everything they don't want.... think about that from your point of view would be give up who you are and the benefits of that to become someone you despise and the unwanted benefits of that? These people literally run our world.... politics, big business, science, media, military etc etc etc etc... To anyone who has been targeted remember to ALWAYS speak your mind/ SMS your thoughts, know who you are and be that, trust your gut 100% of the time, and never ever go past red flags

[@talonsarise]

I want to listen to all of this but the bad sound is so distracting

[@selfesteem3447]

Typically his videos don't have the sound quality like I had noticed here just like you are mentioning but I've gotten through it using the setting where I turned on the captions for english. Perhaps Ross had some type of equipment problem but wanted to still get the video out today.

[@othmane-mezian]

This was probably part of a radio interview

[@dennislavigne1299]

I would love to hear this again. Real good content. I just need to concentrate on your words. Which I can’t

[@minkamariseiter1793]

Ditto

THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING AT ALL TIMES ….THEY ENJOY THE POWER AND CONTROL.

[@beckymichel1845]

It is very difficult living with a narcissist. I hope I am able to leave soon.

[@SnijtraM]

Don't rush it, be on your guard while having to accept that some mishaps cannot be avoided, but please, make it happen, and please succeed. 👍

Audio is odd and difficult to listen to...

Thank You RR🫶🙌🤜

[@SirenaSpades]

I can't hear this

[@sheanaewoo4790]

the audio is terrible. Any way to improve it?

[@charm2800]

can you redo this with better audio

[@Michael_Arguello]

What kind of sociopath is the reverse of this, sociopathic only towards narcissists in public and nice to everyone else outside and at home. Asking for a friend…

[@selfesteem3447]

Perhaps your friend has a beef with narcissists because he or she was victimized by narcissist ?

[@Michael_Arguello]

@@selfesteem3447 My friend said he never realized he was a victim until his kids became victims of the same person. Now the beast is all that remains of him. He said he likes the new him. ;)

[@MetaPhysStore0770]

This is a punisher or equalizer personality type that seeks to devalue, and that can be a vigilante that feels they are qualified or able to punish certain people or prevent certain behavior. These people could be seeing them selves as a victim or as a guardian of victims who feel a responcibility to act agressive on behalf of others or for the cathartic effect for themselves or for the ego boost of feeling superior to certain people. It is an aggressive spectrum of anger that can range from passive aggressive to violent depending how entrenched they are in their delusional thinking.

[@Michael_Arguello]

@@MetaPhysStore0770 thank you for your insights.

[@mac-ju5ot]

I once met a lady with four different personalities or so she claimed anytime she did want to volunteer sje switched..I understood but yes it annoyed me.

[@jakerivets2249]

Good video, except for the part where you showed your political indoctrination by using Putin and Trump as examples of this disorder, without acknowledging that the same attributes are present in the Liberal leaders that you prefer. Politics, business, medicine, athletics, and nearly every other industry are populated at the top by psychopaths and sociopaths, regardless of political beliefs. How much of your own research or treatment programs show this kind of unconscious bias? And a question I've had for a long time, how can one claim to know what percentage of the population is narcissistic, sociopathic, or psychopathic when those cohorts, particularly the more covert types, are loath to admit this to a therapist, a therapist that they are very unlikely to see in the first place, and in light of the recent study that showed female psychopaths are 5 times more common than previously reported?

[@MetaPhysStore0770]

You are showing your ignorance of the subject because liberal cluster b types tend to be passive aggressive covert narcissists and sadistic narcissists and strategic machiavellians, who use other people to do their dirty work so they keep the blood off their hands, where as putin and trump are overt, you need to study up buddy!!!😂😂😂

[@SnijtraM]

Well, *whose* indoctrination, exactly? We're talking about obvious unhinged behavior, one way or another, and the propensity of the folks who like to blame whomever their object of idolization tells them to, and conveniently, make everything someone else's fault. Because that's the appeal, nothing else.

[@jakerivets2249]

@@SnijtraM That describes supporters of both US parties, and to call Putin "unhinged" is to not know the history of Ukraine, NATO, and Western efforts to destabilize Russia post-WWII. Trump is elevated as "unhinged" by the opposition party, as are most political opponents.

[@SnijtraM]

In terms of arguments, you're not bringing anything to the table - playing the victim card in a muffled tone, while trying to sound intellectual does not count towards the Russian junta being the "victim" of anything in the real world. Only, it doesn't stop social failures and wishful thinkers from jumping on this bandwagon as the notoriety of systematic cheating makes them drunk with the prospect of power.

[@jakerivets2249]

@@SnijtraM That's a bunch of gibberish, pal. You haven't contributed anything resembling a counter-argument, and it sounds as if you have no idea what you're talking about anyway, but are offended for some reason. To think that Russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked shows your absolute ignorance of the driving factors behind the war, and to parrot US State Department talking points in favor of Ukraine and against Russia speaks to the Liberal indoctrination I mentioned in my original comment. But you're too dim to even realize it. Come back when you have an opinion of your own, not one given to you by the US State Department and the Democratic Party. Read a history book. Read the Burns Memo. Read the RAND report. Listen to Putin's Munich Conference speech. But don't come here crying because you have no idea what you're talking about, to you accuse me of playing a victim card of some sort. You're a victim of your own willful ignorance, and you're projecting.

Dr. Ross what kind of narcissist first time you meet in person they come over to have sex. Not movie or whatever and sex happened. Came over for sex was first time I meet her in person. Takes two to tango not throwing stones. And after sex on the couch we talked and she was asking really deep personal questions. And the second time she came over the next weekend same thing and more personal questions about what do I look for in a woman, how do I see the household chores in a marriage who does what? And she's cramped in a one bedroom with four people. I move her in about a month later. four months later we marry. The first year seemed fine but there was weird sexual stuff and like every night and I was 55 and she 45. I went along kind of thing but she was like the horny seductress and I wasn't complainiing. And the love bombing was off the charts all the women at my job wanted me all the women in our neighborhood wanted me and I had the most beautiful skin a man ever had and my legs were amazing. This women had me wrapped up from the beginning. About a year into the fights started and I am so glad I gave this person hell.. I knew I was being abused I didn't understand how she seemed to get stronger as the fights ensued I know now though. I smashed the marriage license on the floor opened the door said GET THE HELL OUT.. And fortunately the situation was she had to. We went back and forth for a marriage that lasted four years divorce was final a week ago. Is she a garden variety narcissist? She made me feel like I was the most interesting person in the world but I didn't know being a SLD that she was information gathering. What kind of narc is this person Doc? Thank you love your video's. O, and I am in the fires of hell, I mean pathological loneliness.. Trying to busy my mind.

[@markjayw666]

Totally disagree, expose them. Don’t be a weak person.

[@juliechurch1799]

No bad idea if expose. I did by accident and it's world war 3 , No joke ! Warning don't expose.
