Maybe we need to make peace with being told disparate things; they told us that they cared (or society did it for them) so our guess was compromised, becausewe neededto believe that we were loved, somehow. Retrospectively, have I done that, not a single person would have been in my life for long. It looks like people wanted me around for what they could get from me, not for me. Even now, I'm having to como to terms with the fact that my beloved grandmother was more concerned about appeasing the narcissists than care for me.

“You will become physically sick” This hit home. I’m 52, getting divorced after 28 years of marriage. Last month my wife said she thinks I’m a narcissist so I came on KZbin to see if I could find ways to tell if I really was. Turns out she checks all the boxes for a female covert narcissist. Now that my eyes were open I can see that she has been manipulating me and tearing me down for a long time. It was very subtle at first, but the last few years have been hell. She had me convinced it was all my fault. For the last couple years I’ve been so constantly stressed and depressed that I start every day dry heaving. My weight fluctuates crazily, I have stress headaches all the time and joint and body aches. But I go to work every day, put on my happy face, and grind on. Nobody knows what I’m dealing with inside. I cannot wait to be free and start healing.

Being skeptical is a positive step forward to the reality that not everybody is on our team and not everybody wants well for us, regardless of what they say and what we were taught. The reality of the world is obviously that there are bad people who will do bad things and there’s a lot of value in being good because it’s so difficult to be. so obviously the bad people doing bad things will and want to be seen as good to empower them to continue extracting value from others that they wouldn’t otherwise be given the privilege of if they were honest about their motives and who they are. Still, there may be another step after this, which would look like doing healing to the point where you allow yourself to trust people again, people who show that they are trustworthy. Because if we don’t do the healing, we could end up being the worst of the person that tried to project onto us. Trust, but verify lol

It’s incredibly dangerous to keep focusing solely on a narcissist's fits of rage, because passive-aggressive behavior can be just as destructive. Narcissists don’t just explode-they also sabotage through subtle means, destroy property, and set traps to undermine others. This kind of calculated aggression is just as harmful, if not more so, because it can go unnoticed while still causing immense damage. Both forms of anger deserve serious attention, as they equally contribute to chaos and harm.

I loved him for 15 years and still he didn't see my value and said he never loved me...

Single now for 2 months after a 4.5 year relationship that you summarized in a 17 minute video. Thank you Jimmy. Your videos have helped me sort out my feelings and thoughts over the last few months because gaslighting, manipulation and emotional violence can make you lose perspective. Your videos are always to the point. I was so deeply unhappy for so many years and was firmly convinced that I was the problem. Yet I wanted to fix, heal, find solutions and did everything imaginable to save it. I finally understood everything and put it behind me. It felt like I had suddenly woken up. When I was ready to end the relationship, he ended it at that moment too, so it was a mutual separation. I left that to his ego too. But he didn't get the hug he wanted from me the day I moved out of the apartment we shared. It's not a separation on good terms, it's a peaceful separation. But there is no longer any friendship or trust. I feel so good now and my stomach pain is nearly gone since that day. I will recommend your videos to others. Best regards from Berlin 😊

We are responsible for figuring out our needs and wants and getting them met by interacting with people who genuinely care about us.

I’ve been stopping myself when I’m getting overwhelmed, more like fear I think, my heart rate goes up, I feel adrenaline running through my body, I’m shaky and I get terrible headache in my eye too! Awful, I’m working hard at being aware of this, stopping closing my eyes and taking deep breaths until everything calms down, then I check in with myself “ ok what’s going on? Why are you flipping out?” And I realized it was the time before he would be home from work, or me worrying at 11 am about if dinner will be ok and no chaos happens at dinner that would cause me distress! I’ve gotten past that most of the time and my future is changing in November and I’ll be away from this, I know that a month in my body won’t hurt all the time, my neck won’t be a rock and I won’t have constant headache and other major pain issues.

One thing I learned in therapy, and the subject has been touched on this channel before, is boundaries. But even better than setting your own, is asking about theirs first. If they can't even clearly communicate their own boundaries, get annoyed when you want to touch base about boundaries, expect that you should "just know what their boundaries are" or punish you harshly for crossing a boundary you did not know about (within reason of course, abuse is never okay) that is a huge huge huuuuge red flag. Like an automatic black flag deal breaker. If they can't even respect their own boundaries how are they going to respect anyone else's?

Yet the very fact she refuses to stop to think about the words coming out of her mouth continues to reinforce that it is indeed intentional to some extent. It’s amazing how she can find a way of sidetracking the topic of discussion bringing it back to money in some means… it’s legitimately all she ever cared about 😢

2:26 I was just told that yesterday. "I don't have issues with anyone else. You're so difficult." (Not for the 1st time.) So I asked my family am I really so difficult? It seems no one else has issues with me. This video is exactly how it feels. The other day he talked about su*c*dal thoughts out of nowhere. It leaves me feeling like a jerk. 😢

They need to seek an outside professional if they are thinking suicide. Sometimes they are just saying that. But, I would say please get help if you feel that way. Should I call someone for you?

He using the manipulation tactic!! Maybe he wants to put it in your mind so you will do it! They are too obsess with themselves to kill themselves.

I love you @Jimmy on Relationships . Thank You ❣️ This was like you were speaking Directly to me with what I've been through. Especially the last seven days of September while he moved his things out & left. I went NO Contact on October 1, 2024 The hardest thing that I'm still doing after our 8 year relationship. This video of yours has HELPED me to see & understand now with clarity.
