What Is Self-Transformation And Why You Need It

[@jassett132]

Being a nobody and a somebody at the same time is that internal conflict that plagues both the empath and the narcissist! They both need radical self transformation. Our first step in healing from narcissistic abuse is to recognize the weakness and the desperation of the narcissist to be a somebody! I started to feel pity for the narcissist and that automatically transformed me from feeling like victim!

[@bedebill]

Narc's are lost souls they do not know what they are doing, they are on autopilot self preservation with little regard to how that might effect others , very damaged .

[@kevinhornbuckle]

It is possible to feel pity for the narcissist while still protecting yourself from her or him. They mean it personally when the attempt to hurt you. But you need to take it personally only insofar as to move them out of your life. If you understand how captive they are to trauma, then you come to see them as people who can't help themselves.

[@gracewright7938]

@@bedebill I think they know what they are doing, because the covert smeared my name, but degraded and tried to destroy me in secret, he did not show the degrading in public, however, my understanding they know they are hurting, but do not understand your pain or the damage they do. They just understand you deserve it. I think it is possible to feel sorry for them, understand the trauma they carry and keep your distance from them. I look at their behavior, try to read their behavior and read what is going through their mind. They mimic the parent that did this to them. I try to understand it. At some point in life, one might not take it personal, if you still socialize or see them, but not in an intimate level. I try to see him as the injured child, feel empathy for him, but not when the true Narc, Mr. Hyde, gives you a warning. I find they warn you when they give you that calculating stare then you see the true Narc in their dark eyes, then that is my cue to leave the next day Dr. Jekyll comes back. I am afraid they are very damaged. Just figure being damaged since birth by a caretaker that was damaged, through no fault of their own. They know no other way. They mimic people behavior, but incapable to mimic the soul and spirit.

[@bedebill]

@@gracewright7938 yes they are emotionally disabled , social norm nerves removed , blind to how healthy respect for others might be , they are so panicked through PTS . The over shadowing terror of childhood negative role models has hard wired them into a awful distortion , no wonder there are murders. Abdul please correct me if this is out at all , and thanks for the Vids.

[@zameer7308]

Somebody give this man an award! Your work has been so helpful to me. Thank you so much. Have you ever thought about doing any content on addiction? There's a great deal of overlap between theories and models of self-transformation within psychology, and theories of addiction and the 12-step model of recovery or "spiritual awakening" (which, to my mind, seems to be the same as self-transformation). I think your approach could be very popular for addicts who have trouble swallowing the 12-step culture and language. Food for thought.

Free Spirit Love that teacher/ student thing. I think I came upon it somewhere when it was EXACTLY what I needed at the time.....yep, I don’t think it’s magical or coincidence either ! It’s a whisper from God, the universe, your Higher Power, etc.

[@TheMehkey]

@@freespirit2194 that is magical thinking. You really have to be carefull with synchronocities

[@KaoXoni]

@@TheMehkey @TheMehkey But knowing that interest guides attention and that attention determins which fractions of the vast information an individual conceives of in order to construct their current reality, there really is no need at all for any magical thinking to explain why e.g. the teacher *appears* when the student is ready. The teacher put himself out there, he's been waiting already, not materialising out of nowhere but finally being noticed. Can you follow that?

[@angelanicholson951]

It's vital to find out who you really are. Without it, our lives are totally frustrated and never at peace. When others's prevent you from doing so, and they force you to become everything their sick minds needs, be it good, bad and everything to satisfy their mindset, being free to just be and get to see who you really are is something money cannot buy. Not always easy, but fascinating at the same time. And when you see yourself making decisions you were never allowed to make, and surprise yourself, often, and just recognising who you are in your own space, it feels good whatever the outcome is, just to be free to do it, and growing into yourself, to fit in your own body, as such.

[@happylindsay4475]

The writings of Carl Jung also are deeply connected to the Heroes Journey, and the process towards ' wholeness'. He was/is a pivotal figure that hypothesized on human individuation as an alchemical, dramaturgical, spiritual process... Somewhat disconnected, but felt to share, I have been really disturbed by the hateful vitriol concerning people who are deemed or classified as Narcissists. I am not trying to condone their painful behaviors or the effects on anyone- but they too whether they are able/ willing to acknowledge it, suffer a deep, deep, wounding. Even narcissists have their story, and are a vital teaching/ learning aide- if we choose to see them as such and it is no surprise to me at this point in history that we are having such a visceral reaction to narcissists- look at the society in which we live!! Look at our leader's, look at the incredible disparity in wealth and access to basic necessities in different parts of the world... Look at what our governments spend on death and defense. Look at his we treat the least of our society- persons with mental health issues, prisoners etc.. It is deeply narcissistic! I believe we all need to take the journey inward, towards self transformation- to bring about the change collectively, globally.... I believe that when you heal and integrate the Self, you are able to view Life in its totality, looking at ALL that life has to offer both good, bad, arbitrary and everything in between and a result is more self awarness, respect of ones boundaries and love and empathy towards others and our environment at large. I can't wait for more videos. Thanks Doctor!!

[@juned5442]

From the Empaths view, give to receive. Do unto others as you would be done by, be kind to others and kindness will come back to you, its hard to know how to do things differently, except trying not be so giving or kind to others, but be kind to your self first, to respect yourself first. I am listening, thank you for your videos.

[@yonathanzekarias5132]

Dr. Abdul Saad. A humble, smart and very knowledgeable psychologist. A great listener. Book a session. You will not regret it.

[@dafyddaprhys782]

I believe that conflicts or traumas in one's life are times when the 'invisible becomes visible' briefly and a great opportunity as one seeks understanding 'within as without' during this period of fragmentation that questions former self beliefs and a time where the ego tries to override, to dull the pain, and put one back to sleep. What has been called 'the dark night of the soul'. There is no better time for seeking help or advise or nurturing from someone of wisdom as this is such a wondrous opportunity to discover a greater understanding of self and that of life. I believe such are hurdles that even great people face and who fear just as anyone but push through emotions and self doubt so as to feel empowered by each trauma experience along ones chosen path. It's not often a doctor would operate on self hence it may also apply to one's own advice... so my words are that of expressing my thoughts out loud so I can listen for I live alone and somewhat isolated. Much appreciate for your time and for sharing your knowledge and wisdom... I sense an iceberg as I listen with certain keys and the essence of far greater depths... Regards D

Thank you, Dr Saad! I have been on this exact Path for decades, imagine my delight and surprise to find you now offering this mini-series which I hope will take me from painfully & secretly more or less highly self-aware to more calmly serenely joyfully quietly open and spiritually self-realized. Being an American, I don't instinctively know what "fair dinkum" means exactly, but I hazard a guess I'm about to find out! I have realized I've become Co-Dependent and last year began working various 12-step programs to extricate myself from those patterns. It's a shock to us to realize how selfish, flawed and human we really are. Talk about an inaccurate map!!! Ouch. It's interesting too, about 3 days ago I was, during meditation, fully struck by the Nobody+Somebody conundrum you mention here, Dr. Saad, and walking around 24/7 applying it both to mySelf and to each person I interact with has been [another] radical Level Up on my journey. I will be listening to this several more times, to make sure it sticks & percolates into my brain/heart/Life. Thank you again & looking forward to doing this Transformation with your help! PS: For anyone new to this type of thinking or Path, the writer Dr Saad is referring to pronounced "Mace" is Dr Caroline Myss, if you want to Google her or read her books.

[@k8eekatt]

You might find the process is on going and intimately expansive, with no end.

Thank u Dr. Saad truly the story of my life as a codependent for at least 36 of my 41 years. Self transfirmation is what I am going thru slowly but surely punctuated of occasional a-ha! moments throughout ever since my awakening. Feels very hopeless though to realize many just won't go near this process for themselves and will continue spreading abuse hurt and emotional toxicity on their paths like my abusive parents. I wish I could redeem them and have it different from here on but it is just not happening. Thank u so much. So very well put!

[@k8eekatt]

I expect the turning point is when someone decides to help themself and they stop projecting their own trauma outward. Congratulations! Even if your family still expects other people to take care of their pain, I bet you will quickly learn to separate from their antics and take care of your self 😃
