How Sociopathic Narcissists Set You Up For Hurt

Narcissists are difficult to interact with due to their controlling, entitled ways, but when they also have strong sociopathic tendencies, their dysfunction goes to an even higher level. Dr. Les Carter explains how sociopaths not only disregard you, but also societal norms in general. It is essential to understand how they think and operate so you can avoid the hurt they generate.

“Revenge over Reconciliation.” Is very true. Please pray for those who are being run into the ground by these sociopathic narcissists.

[@befaffled1635]

Also need to pray for the sociopathic narcissists

[@jsf8145]

Vengeance is of the Lords. Clearly the injured Narc doesn't know God (Jesus), because of all their back biting, back stabbing, gossiping & vindictive behavior. God despises the proud/egotist (Narc), but gives grace to the humble. A proud man/woman (narc) rarely cares to know God, because they are too busy looking down their nose at the world around them and can't know the one above it all = God. Pride goes before destruction. Haughty spirit goes before a fall and one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess Jesus is Lord of all (Daniel 7:13,14). Isaiah 53 👀 John 16:33

This is a reflection of my marriage. I married a sociopathic covert narcissist who outwardly is an overachiever and a caring individual. But behind closed doors she is a cold, selfish, gas-lighter who has destroyed my self-esteem and confidence. After 14 years and two kids, I’ve lost hope in ever thinking she will change or get better. I never thought one person could do so much mental damage. My heart goes out to all of you in the same situation who feel hopeless or trapped. These videos have been my biggest ally and I draw strength with every one.

[@nickf9392]

Thats because the whole time they are telling you how great you are, its all an act. They just need to suck you in, get you close and vulnerable and that makes them feel safe and secure. Then they power trip all over you, put downs, criticism, judgmental comments and worse. So what you though was love at first, was really nothing more than a very skilled set up.

Who I missed most was my real self and I was never connected to that because I grew up in a psychopathic/narcissistic family where I was trafficked from age 2 until 20. I have D.I.D from all the lifelong horrific abuse but am working towards integration and have cultivated love/compassion and kindness for all parts of me now. Finally connecting within myself to the love that's been there all along.

He harassed me for up to 2 years after the project was destroyed at his hands, before finally going away and leaving me alone. He was desperate to look like a big shot or a decision-maker and also didn't want to look like a fool when people found out he had lied about his ability to finance the project we were working on.

I was born the youngest of 4 kids. Covert narc Dad and partner in crime, the oldest child, my brother. Me and my Mom were covertly and constantly emotionally traumatized through the most devious methods imaginable. The middle kids were brainwashed to beieve we were the problem, while they were deemed the beacons of truth and respect. As the youngest, my live ended at 5 yrs old. 55 suicidal years followed. It took 50 yrs to unravel, but I now have zero family. The middle kids still have no idea what's going on, blaming themselves for their messed up lives, never the tricksters who made them confused and against me and mom (the only christians). The oldest is rich and has a million dollar home in florida, while the other 3 kids are all unemployed, on disability, and living in a psychological hell. Hell yes, there are evil, a special type of evil. My faith in God keeps me alive, barely.

[@strawberryredz1997]

Similar here, oldest daughter with younger brothers. My dad is all this and trying to talk with him, is impossible. I told him once, he hated being a father, of course he denied. My brothers aren’t even aware of this. When I first learned of this, I tried talking softly, because of his childhood, but no luck there. I was a whole different parent because of him. My mom is passed. She’s finally in peace, I say, but I miss her terribly. Had I known about all this, I would of gotten her out. Heal well, because for me, it’s really hard to just not think of my life as a child, being a big lie.

[@NiCadHeliPilot]

As always, you've summed up Mom's behavior in a nuthsell 100%. I initially picked up on her being a sociopath all the way back in 2002, back when I first started to question the choices she made. For example, where she would be standing behind her target, saying nasty things to them & pulling offensive hand gestures at them & laughing at their expense, saying "It's a game" (literally saying that to 8-year-old me, at the time). Like... I would warn her that they are not gonna give a pleasant reaction, when they see you doing that to them & she'd laugh at that & go "I don't care". Then, later on, she'd call the police on them, if they gave her a violent reaction. Like... back then, I knew that is not normal & something was wrong with Mom. As the years go by, I have learned a lot about her, as her sociopathic & narcissistic behavior became more obvious (she's now at a point, where her toxicity is worsening with age). Now, I am at the point where I am establishing boundaries with her & every time I set a boundary (such as my rule about people talking to me before I have had my morning coffee. Now, everyone that knows me, knows & respects this boundary), Mom gets angry & aggressive at me, then goes passive aggressive, then... I don't know if this is her narcissism, sociopathy, or if it's a her thing, but once she has done all of this, she will carry on as though none of her abusive behavior has ever happened (Like... as though *nothing* has happened, at all). I have also come to terms with the fact that the only change that she will make, is that her behavior will get worse, as she ages. She will *never* change for the better. Which is what has brought me to your channel, in the first place, so that I can learn better & healthy ways to disconnect myself from Mom's control & reduce the impact of the trauma she continues to cause me.

The police have been involved with her over 300 times. She is a professional and pitting one against another. My own mom passed away 7 years ago. My daughter asked to have my moms ashes for just two weeks after mom died. Well now it’s been 7 years and she refuses to give the ashes back. Now my moms family won’t even talk to me because of it.

I have dealt situations where he was clearly in the wrong and he try to put blame back on me when I would stick up for myself. He is completely toxic to a certain extent. He basically murdered me with his words. I have completely backed away and have tried to have good boundaries with him. But he doesn't respect them. He has honestly been my greatest enemy. I would do what you need to do to not let a person that is this way to pull you down with them.

My parents home schooled me So that they could keep me and My siblings below them. But unfortunately for them I had talents they did not and when I left at 18 and expanded on these I was treated terribly physically and verbally abused And as I started out doing them The door kept shutting until It eventually did completely..... But it is very hard to not give in even to the point of ruining your own life so you can be in with your family. It took a lot of strength to stand up and be my own person.....

I wish I knew this years ago. The information was not available back then. My husband of 3 decades, I have learned recently, was a narcissist/sociopath/psychopath. I'm an empath. He's been dead 12 years . In his last years the VA psychiatrist diagnosed him as antisocial personality disorder. I didn't know that meant psychopath, I thought it meant antisocial. And I also learned recently my mother was a narcissist 🤷‍♀️ so most of my life I've been lost in confusion of them being kind one minute and a raging bull the next . My husband loved to be a chameleon. Very insidious, many times I didn't think I would get out alive. Then when he did leave, he came after me. I'm lucky to have survived. Needless to say, I don't look for relationships ! I'm perfectly happy being on my own with people I can trust. Thank you for your deep insights into this subject. Its helping so many people!!!

Hey Katara. You're figuring it out now, so let's make it count! #TeamHealthy. Dr. C

[@grandmajane2593]

Your story sounds exactly like mine. I used to watch Oprah every day hoping she would have answers for me. I was worried that living under constant stress would effect my health. Sure enough it did, cancer 2 times, thryoid trouble, kidney disease, blood clots, etc. I'm still alive, my ex has died, and I'm surviving but I sure wish someone had answers for me back in the 60's, 70's. Yes now that I'm alone I relish the alone-ness and don't want to answer to any man again!

[@InHisSservice]

And we need Jesus and the Bible so that we hear from the Holy Spirit. Thank you, Dr. Les. Bless you!

[@indiansummer1854]

I needed to hear this, it was so beneficial. I believe my brother has these behaviors. He has caused me and others such pain. I have been NC with him for 2.5 years and I am at peace with that. I always felt like he was a narcissist on steroids, and now I see he has some of the sociopathic tendencies as well. He still tries to insult me through other family members, I just ignore him and never respond. I have Dr. C to thank for that. Thanks Dr. C.

[@r3framework]

This was my father. Pushed me into business and relationships with two other sociopathic N's. Now 56 and having to rebuild my life from scratch.

[@joh569]

So grateful for your channel Dr. Carter. You are a blessing to so many, the encouragement means so much.

[@SurvivingNarcissism]

You are quite welcome

I was raised by a borderline parent (or two?) and I'm currently co-parenting with a prime example of a such. Maybe in a few generations their breed will be legally identifiable, quantifiable and ideally sectioned, in the meantime it's a daily struggle. In my opinion, these people should be simply labelled as socio/psychopaths. Narcissist is a very benign term for them.

[@bluliite]

My dad to a T. Thought he was going to come back into the room twice with a gun, and I didn't even know if he owned a gun. I got out of there before he came back.

They are never responsible for anything, no blame ever. They think you are suppose to pay for things if you don't give the money to them. They will always try to get even when you do not do what they want you to do. I am a very strong person so I don't have to tell you how we live. Being a coward as they most are but not always. I don't give away what I earn but have been setup to spend some times. Thank you so much Dr. C.

This has helped me grow, after psychological abuse throughout my childhood. Thank you for sharing! Peace.

Our whole society is this way unfortunately showing up in all levels nowadays.

[@ohnonotthevampire7191]

Very wise! Spoke to me directly. I recently had to cut off all closeness with a narcissist in particular and you are absolutely right. I had to deal with the hard fact that there is no redeeming quality with these kind of people and exiting is the best and only option to preserving your mental health. Kudos on this Vid!

[@pinkposey8134]

Great topic! Thank you Dr Carter! Very in depth, and this is needed.

[@fredericklegrande4564]

I love the painting in the background...it looks like a spectacular place in Colorado...you are explaining my sister to a T.....she makes no effort to control her anger and overt contempt....no self awareness

Thankyou, yes, thought I could cope with this next 'game player', but spiralling too much.. not very good at blocking & deleting... but it affects every thing 😬😪😓😣😕😥

Love your work!!!!

[@gate101101]

Experienced this 100% my Daughters Father. I have cut him out of our lives after he tried to destroy our lives over and over. Selfish to the bone. Nasty retaliation.

[@sunnyblueskies6505]

I knew my then husband for 32 years. I confronted him and asked him if he had a gf. When he admitted it, it was as though he flicked a light switch off. He quit communicating with me. Even though our marriage was on life support, we still were friends. Once he found another, his addictive personality found comfort in love bombing her and he never looked back. He’s hurting our kids too. He has always placed this new gf before his own. And a few weeks ago, he gave them an ultimatum: accept this stranger he’s been living with for the last 11 months (he went straight from our home to hers), or he didn’t want to see his kids without her anymore. My kids are destroyed by this. My 21 yo daughter sobbed as she exclaimed, “I’m no longer daddy’s girl”. And my 20 and 18 yo sons are needing their dad so badly right now, but he’s left them behind. All 3 have therapists. They tried to go to family therapy with their dad, but as soon as he realized the therapist wasn’t enamored with the charm he thinks he has, and she challenged him to focus on how his kids felt - not just how he felt - he quit going. This vid has helped me understand my now ex truly has sociopathic behavior. idk how he sleeps at night.

[@regularolpoet1462]

Is there such thing as a narcissist that shows compassion to everyone but the one they're married to?

[@tanyalenmark4194]

Can't ... When your eldest Son has Cancer and I'm His caregiver.... My heart is broken ... I get no sleep and I can't eat when I'm stressed out. 😢

[@משהדרום]

I was born to a father who was a malignant narc' and now some of the most close people in my life are just narcs / sociopaths and so on But as i wrote I did set my boundries and they lost interrest in me .... 😅😅 thanks to your advises

This is my Oldest son 100%......So sad

[@ClaireGraceMarshall-jr5mm]

This is my mother in so many ways, she can't see what she has done to hurt me and others and she has never apologised to anybody ever, which would make her a psychopath as well. My mother wants to be included and spoken ro and not ignored like she doesnt exist. How do I get around this, i dont want my kids around her but tqo are adults and one is 16 and they all have special needs. I have no intention of meeting her for a discussion because it's pointless and I'm not taking the blame for her rages.

[@bluestar.8938]

Gus is looking good. Thank you Dr C. All the best : )

[@Puffpuffgive16]

Well.. my ( now ex ) girlfriend rebounded straight into the arms of a sociopath ( my now ex best friend ) couldn’t believe it.. 8/9 weeks have passed, I’ve gone complete no contact, and I know through the grapevine that the rows and the lies are horrific between them, my ex is apparently working him out for what he is. She left him a couple days ago, I’m guessing it’s not ‘ fully ‘ over as the push and pulling back in will be in full effect, but the cracks have massively appeared, and quickly !

[@pamelariley6694]

[@roywilkie9577]

"join them in their efforts to undermine other individuals"!!! this! my sociopathic/narcissistic ex literally wanted me to cheat on her so that I'd be partners in crime to her cheating. meaning seek out married people to cheat on their spouses with. 😅 bullet dodged. we were married for a whole 3 months.

[@evam3566]

Excellent video. Thank you so much. I wish they taught this in high school.

[@shereadsshescries1457]

Wow the narcissists with extra everything. Now the sociopath is not the apparently meanest one, can be very well hidden, highly educated, talented, or just ordinary, but with lack of all boundaries, drugs, women, money both spent like mad and tight like mad at the same time, the spend like mad applies to themselves for themselves. This video was a good warning, there ARE worse than the easily predictable narcissists, sociopaths are pure PREDATOR NARCISSISTS.

[@ralphstadler7373]

Thanks Les, great info!! So true!!

[@rosemaryraplar8]

Today I walked away from him. This describes him 100%. I've seen too much of his actions to be so repulsed I can't go back and work for him anymore. I see how he his destroying his family. He'll soon be in the grave and he is definitely getting worse. The saddest thing is the children don't even realize it. I see the monkeys, the golden child, the scapegoat...and the sickness continues in the children to various degrees. So sad but I'm outta there!

[@MultiKnick]

They are usually cowards too, they might feel it"s okay to hit their children but when the children grow up and come back for a rematch the cowards hide and might even call the police.
