If the internet, youtube and Richard Grannon had existed when I was in my 20's, I wouldn't have wasted the majority of my life trying to please or help abusive people. I would have learned how to live my own life for me. I was born into a narcissistic family, and unconsciously continued my programming until my late 40's when I stumbled onto this kind of valuable information. I've spent the last 15 years growing up, recovering and learning how to take care of me.

I was trolled for a year over the phone about how wonderful my retirement in the dungeon would be..."come here, work from home" First year, strange, figured it was simply an adjustment period for me. Then the monster showed up. I learned there was no reasonable conversations or solutions allowed. I saw the satisfaction in the monsters face when they'd rage & scare me. Because my resources were zero. I could only pack quietly & pray. It was a beautiful clean escape. The rants were 🎯🎯🎯 I'm glad I can laugh now.

I can't believe how those experiences are similar to my situations. It has been pure scary horror film and the narc is still living in that world. I was very tempted to talk to the narc if he was aware that those videos were talking exactly about what they were. If they were not the real narcissist, they would be able to watch those videos but unfortunately the real narc refuse this video. They will ignore and start accusing people who talk about him or this type of video, condemning they are useless, cursed, all kinds of accusing words they can use. I am so relieved to see the other people who understand what I had gone through.

It helps to hear others stories about being sucked in by a narcissist, then realizing the insanity of it and then ending it and doing the best you can to not give up on yourself for allowing it to happen or repeating it over again. I remember asking my husband at one point why he didn't find someone like himself instead of destroying me, his answer was oh no he didn't want anyone like him. Good God! That told me everything I needed to know! Thanks for the chatter LOL

A covert narcissist seeks help for her anxiety, depression and feelings of shame. Will then her therapist 1) identify her as a C.N. ? and if so 2) inform/confront her about it? My cnex's therapist identified her as a "high sensitivity person". Out now since about a year. Thank you Richard for speaking publicly about narcissism. This topic is not enough discussed publicly.

yes! It is unbelievable in a way that these people who have been abused by the narcs are coming out and can share their experiences. I thought I was very attached and so close to the narc but it was series of scary events and curses. I needed escape in desperate state and I came to those channels. The time of the narc being 'most superior' and 'intelligent' might be over because those people who are aware of who they are are stronger than ever. We will not be fooled by their dirty tactics any longer. This video is so on point, exactly what I needed to hear!

I believe all people have an internal sense of right and wrong. There is no excuse to be cruel to others for any reason. I feel we all have a right to defend ourselves, but not to be intentionally cruel. It’s inexcusable. Cruelty is evil in action. We all make choices and are in charge of our own behavior. Our personal behavior is our own personal responsibility. Narcs are evil in action.

Cold, cruel, self-centred b*tch! 🤬 Is it any wonder I believed the loving words & gestures (lies) & glitter-rolled bs an ex "soul mate" (😉) showered on me? The marriage proposal, amazing sex, etc etc. Any little girl's dream come true, right? I didn’t walk into a cold, dark dungeon. Before I entered, I fantastically gave the place a full light, bright reno and cheerfully bestowed a crown upon his head & handed him the keys to my heart & our magical future together! 😜 Uuugh! 🤦‍♀️ I've literally recently had to yell at myself, as you said, "Stop abandoning yourself!" It's what I've done all my life.

Limited selfworth drives the whole thing. So the empath takes fake love because he is so afraid of being not loved at all when this "compromise" is rejected. The empath takes this "impossible " love as a task to become an even "better person". The parents who lay that ground early on are a huge part of it still, unfortunately - even if people go no contact- the "programming" is not easy to resolve.

I have been in the narc's dungeon for decades and didn't know that it was so I was extremely frustrated. As he mentioned, it was exactly true that the narc 'programmed' me to choose his dungeon over heaven. They are like first class CIA agent who knows how to manipulate people. They can hypnotize you so that you make decision that you enter their dungeon and stay there and believe it is real. Now I know their script, I am almost out from it! It is one of the best things that I am going through recently.

I was always told that I wasn’t normal. I was “un normal”. Every time I thought to myself, that isn’t even a word, but it still effected me greatly. My children weren’t normal either. In the beginning of recovery, I actually wrote lines over and over saying, “you are normal”, because that line, “you’re not normal”, played relentlessly in my head for at least a year post. And ironically, before him, I was, like a lot of people, proud of my individuality and not being “normal”. (ie: not like everyone else)

I get this all the time from people "you're so weird you're such a freak you aren't normal" literally said behind my back, right there whispering to each other, or right to my face from a lot of messed up people. I even had a new girl that was deaf in high school call me a bitch for not learning sign language for her when frankly i didn't understand much back then. These people love picking on neurodivergent people because they know we're more vulnerable not being able to "fit in" so well so less allies to run to and get help from. It's always been difficult being neurodivergent but people believe all kinds of preconceived notions and biases that are so false. If you're on the "gifted" spectrum they believe we can look at something just once and magically understand it all when frankly even someone with photographic memory sure... they can remember what they saw right away but doesn't mean they understand what they saw there's a difference between seeing and understanding. But apparently not to a lot of other people out there because they've believed in that idea of us for so long that anything we tell them must be us lying to them and trying to sabotage them so they could never be that, which is crazy because you can't just decide to be that so the jealousy is completely baseless and unfounded, clearly we go through struggles when there's THAT going on with people but they just say we're just complaining and should feel lucky. No i don't feel lucky when i'm met with people like that when i've had to learn to understand it all by myself because nobody would explain it to me on purpose so they could abuse me and whack me over the head with what i don't know or understand. I wouldn't change it for the world either though because of how frequently i even surprise myself and those are some of the best moments and the depth at which i can understand things is amazing. So no matter what anyone does never feel bad about being neurodivergent in whatever way you are no matter how people perceive it you know they're crazy.

My therapist always told me, can you change any of it, is it in your power to change this person. Eventually that led me to realize over time that I can only change myself and have to have boundaries, so I can protect myself from harm and the shortest distance to go to protect myself against evil people is not letting them in. Or at first letting them be. It took some time to come back to myself and make me the priority. Thanks Mr Grannon, you helped tremendously in staying....or becoming sane and more focused than I ever was. The inner process is still and will be in progress, but it becomes easier with all the peace and quiet you acquired from enforcing healthier boundaries

Narcissism can so easily be confused with other mental illnesses, which is why it's so confusing. For example, my ex and his mother told me that he suffered from depression. His mother felt so sorry for him and thanked me for making him so happy. So- his moodiness I had attributed to depression. Because I was supplying him with love, support, and so forth- he was elated- happy and loving back to me. So when he was "moody"- it registered as depression. This is how we are so easily confused. I'm sure his mother is confused still. I got out years ago- but the damage persists. I'm feeling very happy and like myself- but you never really understand what was real and what was false. It takes years to not think about the narc. Thankfully- I've had many days where he doesn't enter into my mind, but for years it was constant rumination and trying to make sense of things.

I remember, out of the nearly 3 decades I was in a marriage with a toxic person, who had a terrible childhood and I always gave him that as "Excuse" for his treatment me, I was slowly realising in the ladt decade, that I really needed to get out. I went to a pyschic fair with my girlfriends at a winery, and there was a lady who had a one card tarot reading you could do. The deck was the fairy tarot, and the card she drew was "Phooka". She looked at me, and said with all seriousness, "You have a VERY negative male energy around you and you need to get out, or this energy will destroy you". I knew it was true. But yet I stayed. 7 years later, he punched me in face bc the dog shit on the floor and he was mad. This wasnt the first time he had been physical with me, but it was the worst, up to that time. I called the cops on him, he was arrested, and I moved out, finally. It took him punching me in the face, to get me to leave. And my life keeps getting better every day! 🙏 Thank you for your cheeky humour and intelligent discussion of relationships with danaged people snd what it does to us ❤️

you are so correct, it is hard to believe what they did, the lies, the betray of trust, how do I tell the abuser I get what they did and I know it was on purpose ?

"What are you threatening me with my freedom?" 😂 That was exactly my thought when she was threatening to leave me. It was a weak attempt at reverse psychology. I had been trying to leave her for years. I finally did. Whew I can breathe again.

What makes the NPD so evil is his complete mockery, invalidation, and disregard of my core self, which comes from God. There is no feasible excuse for his behavior. Yes, he will have to answer to the light. Sucks to be him.

He had a narcissistic collapse and burned his house down, his car and then ended his life. Leaving me messages that I’m the one who’s going to pay for their collapse and pick up the pieces. Thank goodness my phone was on silent when they called for me to hear it happen. Tell me that’s not the most evil and grief and loss and pain. I’m getting to the stage where I can see how it was not real but abuse and insanity.

Alternative reality ? It’s just the world according to someone who has no universally applied values or principles - no guidelines , no guard rails. Every thought, word , deed is in service of the narcissists “ feelings”. Lights on - nobody home …

Richard, years ago you were talking about depression and how to change your mind and after you explained how to break that it was like a religious experience haha because it was literally like flipping a switch and I've never been emo depressed again. It was the only time I've ever read someone, listened to a therapist or photographer and had thar happen with anything. Damn near everything I kinda already get. I say that to really push it home how significant it was and that I'm not just some idiot that doesn't catch onto things for myself. Thank you. You're way better than Jordan Peterson btw lol
