Surviving Narcissism

Күн бұрын

While anger is not one of the immediate identifiers of narcissism, it is a natural byproduct of it. What is worse, time proves how narcissists cannot let go of their anger as they return to the same old illogic and worn out tactics. Dr. Les Carter describes one overwhelmingly obvious reason they are unable to let go of their anger.

The reason they stick to their anger is that they're not resourceful. Anger is a one-size-fits-all solution for them. It can be used for bad coping skills, inflating ego, escaping from reality, blame-shifting, manipulation tactics, etc. 😮

Really appreciate whenever you present these rhetorical type questions, but the reality is, narcs see themselves as perfect. They don't see themselves as angry, selfish, defensive, controlling, contemptuous, forceful, domineering, having inner pain, a need to be right or have the final word, a need to win, etc. They see YOU as having all of those traits and issues.

Terry McAvoy just had a collaboration with Dr Peter Salerno. I think you would appreciate hearing it. In comments and chat we see so many excuses for poor behavior, insecurities and shame. Imagine them not feeling it at all or at least, not in the same way we do. This, IMHO, has kept me searching for endless answers. Maybe we need to normalize the idea that we just think differently. Maybe someone should create a dictionary of terms for the narcissist.

@@francesbernard2445 I agree with your sentiments. I have found it to be like a very long bereavement because although time makes it easier I have to admit the pain never really goes. But as a Christian we are asked to forgive. As someone abused from a very young age it's more a case of distancing oneself from the memories by filling your time with things to do that make you feel peaceful but occupy your mind e.g. gardening, painting, knitting. It's an extremely slow process and there's no quick-fix x

Even if ı say something supportive to ease his negative mood, that has nothing to do with me, he will lash out in a rage yelling and screaming saying my consoling him put him in a worse mood. He curses and uses rude words. He’s like a child having a tantrum. A true rude brat! What a pain in my neck! I have to learn not to be nice. Just silent.

I had been abused by a narcissistic sibling for more than six decades. She was "good" for the last 20 years, but inexplicably relapsed with a vengeance. She tried to provoke me with a serious insult. I ignored it but vowed she had just one more chance. It came two weeks later. She texted me and I could pick up on her ire. I wasn't depressed; I wasn't angry. I just knew I had had "enough" and now was the time to break free. She "un-invited" me to her house for the week-end. I simply responded, "OK, fine" and that was that. I'm still patting myself on the back.

In the middle of a 30 year relationship / marriage with an expert and stealthy CMN, one day he was crying / sobbing and I asked him why? He said...I lied to you...the person I told you was my old roommate was really my (ex) wife. He was crying for himself...not because he deceived me. I never received any apologies or and remorse for all of the horrible things he said and did. To his credit, he did also do good things...but there was always a boomerang effect...emphasis on BOOM!!!

I wish they could not be given to such anger and rage. This realization with a close family member of mine ultimately led me to cut off contact with them as it was getting so verbally abusive to the point where I thought I would have a heart attack. Though I blocked their phone number, they went out of their way to leave hateful comments made directly on my youtube that have since been deleted and their profile hidden, but it's extremely unsettling and scary for how fast they go down this lane and how they do not relent, looking for every which way to punish you if you stopped giving them what they want.

Greetings Dr. Carter, been listening now for several months and am finally writing to say thank you! for sharing your invaluable knowledge and insights and for all the good work you do in helping others. You have a wonderful way of presenting the information. My brother and I were raised by a narcissistic mother and he went on to marry someone just like her. After more than 30 years of being married to Cruella De Vil, I think he's finally on his way out. I've taken this opportunity to send him one of your videos to start him off and I'm hoping for the best. I have a feeling he'll connect with you. Thanks again and hugs and kisses to Gus, his presence is ever so comforting, bless him. Cheers

Great video, DrC! I can’t tell you how many times he would say, “YOU said…” and then he would twist whatever I had said so that it justified what he had done that was inappropriate or disrespectful. The way he presented it would seem like he simply interpreted my words differently and that I should have maybe either been clearer or said what I said differently so that he would have understood it the way I meant it. But I know I was clear and understandable. I try my best not to confuse people because I myself don’t like being confused. His twisting my words and adding “YOU said…” always confused me. I still can’t believe I fell for it as long as I did. I’m so glad I now know better and I respect myself more. Thanks to you, DrC!

The primary reason why Narcs do not let go of their anger is the fact that they do not want to examine themselves. The focus of their anger is always "out there" - it's inevitably someone else's fault, so that the focus lies on the wrong person. Their problem is a lack of coping skills. What does the anger of the Narc say? Some questions to ask the Narc: What does the anger say about... 1. ...your raw selfishness? 2. ...your constant feeling of victimization? 3. ...your obsessive need to be right? 4. ...your need for controlling? 5. Why are you threatened by others' freedom to choose? 6. How did you become so easily defensive? 7. Why do you always have to win? 8. Why do you have to destroy? 9. What do you hope to accomplish with meanness? 10. Why are you holding grudges/contempt? 11. Why are you being so forceful? 12. Why are you domineering over others? 13. Why does complexity trip you up so easily? 14. Do you have no compacity for analytical thinking? 15. Do you see the link between your anger and your inner pain? 16. What is inside you that makes you so susceptible? Be aware/ Basically the Narc is saying, 》 "I have no peace and no internal competence to draw upon." 》"Acceptance and tolerance feels like betrayal." 》"Coping depends on my perfect ideal fantasy." 》"My thinking is not grounded in reality." 》 "I have to have a domineering image." 》"I am a hurt child on the inside." 》》What does your anger tell you about you? 》》 Healthy anger can be resolved by reflecting on yourself and addressing things calmly and politely. 》》Do not be on the receiving end of unhealthy anger. Dr Carter 👨‍🦳 and Gus 🐶 thank you for another lesson full of insight 🌞🌟🌝🌈

What makes me "crazy" as I'm learning about narcissistic abuse is that all the traits that my ex possessed, he projected onto me. He told me for years that I had anger issues, even though he raged and terrorized me and our son. He gaslit me, saying that I couldn't see my own anger and issues because I "had to win" and couldn't self-examine. I know intellectually that that's what he did, but emotionally, I still doubt myself and my experiences. It's been impossible to overcome the gaslighting. My son helps, because he's much clearer about it, but I still have my dark times.

​@@amandaliverpool3374 Dear Amanda, wishing you good luck with your youngest...I just published the notes and I will leave the multiple questions already here: What does the anger say about... 1. ...your raw selfishness? 2. ...your constant feeling of victimization? 3. ...your obsessive need to be right? 4. ...your need for controlling? 5. Why are you threatened by others' freedom to choose? 6. How did you become so easily defensive? 7. Why do you always have to win? 8. Why do you have to destroy? 9. What do you hope to accomplish with meanness? 10. Why are you holding grudges/contempt? 11. Why are you being so forceful? 12. Why are you domineering over others? 13. Why does complexity trip you up so easily? 14. Do you have no compacity for analytical thinking? 15. Do you see the link between your anger and your inner pain? 16. What is inside you that makes you so susceptible? Sending you lots of internal peace 🕊🕊🕊💖🤗

@roxymovie3938 Thank-you Roxy. I wish I could get him to look at this list. Every interaction with him, he sees as an attack. Life's difficult. After last week's arrest, at least he's sticking to some boundaries. He's not allowed over the doorstep if he's had alcohol. Thank you for your support 🙏 Look after yourself, too 💖🙏🌻

I would never bother asking ANY of these questions of a narcissist. They are too shallow and lacking in intellect to contemplate an adequate answer. I have no need to frustrate my EARS by listening to their BS.

Dr. C can you do a video on how to stay out of a narcissists triangulation? A covert narcissist, ex husband, is doing everything he can to triangulate me with his new supply. I’ve managed to escape their grasp but this last thing they’ve done is over the line.

I am stuck he is brutal. He has no soul. Loser at everything, lies about everything and he's a thief. This runs deep in in his bloodline... One of his parents was put in Bellevue for the criminally insane. A mother i've scene, such a despicable narcissist with no soul inhuman... He has been diagnosed by several, thrown out of the service. He will hurt only what's weaker than him. Never stood up to a man and the disgusting part. He acts like a weak little girl around men.. Loves to gaslight, children., one doctor said he should be put in a cage out of society and the key thrown away.. Getting worse with age

Emotion =/= action. Remember, guys: You can't control other people. Even if you angered them, that's not the same as the other person harming you with no remorse.

We can't keep giving them power or responsibility over our feelings. Blaming and shaming them for ruining our lives isn't going to hekp us respurce a better one. We have to get resourceful for ourselves, right? Learn to regulate our own emotions rather than depend on the narc to regulate them for us - otherwise aren't we just like them in a way? Like a mirror? My folks used to say, "we recognize in others what we don't like about ourselves." I have to wonder about my own behavior if this quip applies to me sometimes.

Your focus on anger also implicates their victims who are angry and rightfully so. I've said those things to people but it was a statement based on fact. You just focus on the being passive which gives the narc a loop hole out of responsibility. Justice must mean nothing to you....
