  1. Spot on! Amazingly accurate!!!!

  2. Been there. And thank you though i knew things werent normal i realy could not grasp it at the time. I hope someone is able to use this info and get out before to much tine elapses and children are hurt or your life is in shambles because believe ne. They wont care then either!

  3. right around my discard from my lovely narcissist, i went to a family get-together from his family side. i noticed they were mostly all narcs or co-dependents. the family has 13 children. now they are adults. the deceased father must of done a whole heck of alot of punishment on these 13. the dad was life-long military. i came in and i know i looked terrible sick because of the discard. they all asked me how i was. i said terrible. not a one of them asked me what was wrong. i found that strange. everyone i spoke to talked and talked about themselves. the co-dependents just wanted to talk about their illnesses. they wear you out. a whole room full of whack jobs. i had been telling them for years that their dear brother was treating me badly. they told me their dad had told all of them not to get involved in each others marriage problems. they all have huge marriage problems of their own. they told me to go get counseling which the narc said no to. i guess i can discard this family. i have known them for 14 years. they see their brother have trouble after trouble. i will not tell them about NPD. they can remain clueless. see ya!

  4. Hi, thank you for the video. Good ideas. I find this to be a very difficult complex topic. I would like to bring caution to the fact, that people are responsible for their own emotions. That is an important psychological principle. So if someone's feelings are hurt it is necessary to look at two factors: 1. whether or not the hurtful statement was truely and actually hurtful or if it was an adequate statement, – eg. boundry setting, 2. whether of not the person receiving the the comment has repeated tendency to overreact emotionally. Narcissists in their depths as well as other wounded walking have poor self-esteem and may find boundries offensive; they may get insulted by appropriately stated boundries.

  5. Love your videos. I'm from a family full of narcissists… even my own child. I believe that there's something in the DNA. Wish you would do a video of narcissistic children and siblings.

  6. Well i must appearently attract these suckers.. Thanks for helping me get over my ex. Truly a nars…

  7. I get on my soapbox even with my ex npd I always confronted him with he probably was the bad parent and full of it based on what I observed with him. I realy did not understand how he thought so I never he hesitated to give him back his own medicine and correct every thing he did wrong. course according to him I did every thing he did. he never did any thing wrong. if he didnt fill ices trays then it had to be me that left them out. he shut off lights every time he left the room, according to him. of course our home was volatile cause… hell I dont kniw what I thought he thought. guess I just thought he was a passive aggresive idiot and so I let him know he needed to act like a man. but now I sound like a bitch but I dont care as I was fighting for my sanity!

  8. my ex didnt believe in accidents or that some times things can go wrong without it being any ones fault. but of course it was never his fault. and he had his exes back with a knife just like he had mine. and I loved the inanimate prop coment. I always phrased how I felt as living in the shadow of his life but both phrases fit.

  9. The robotic voices cause me to listen carefully, even playing back several times. I seem to like this way of listening to complex info.

  10. Watch the movie, "The Man With the Golden Arm" with Frank Sinatra about a man who kicks a heroin addiction only to be harassed by white people and being harassed and rejected by white people when trying to go straight and find a job causes him to return to his old friends and the end of the movie shows him taking another hit of heroin after so much work.

  11. Very good. I have a few sociopaths in my family and you described them. My brother is a sociopath and while he is successful and intelligent, he is not a nice person. Best wishes to you and have a wonderful year.

  12. This video is awesome and so true! Thanks for the upload! Hits home!

  13. It is worth noting that when interacting with a Narcissist in a family or friendship ongoing comments are targeted at the victim continually. As a result if you are paying attention to the abuse as the target you will find yourself questioning nearly every aspect of the Narcissist; the end result is that heightened sensitivity to comments occurs. The reason for my comment is that the target of the abuse takes on traits of what the Narcissist abuse of finding fault and questioning everything… Even a regular person who doubts or gets upset because of bad situations can be justified in their views and such does not automatically make them abusive or Narcissistic. The Narcissistic people I've have come across and dealt with are very mentally and emotionally unstable and you can be made to look the same simply by interacting with them… I feel bad making comments that upset another person and understand the good points of people; on the other hand abusive people i simply ignore the best I can… If I have to deal with or interact with an abusive person I will interact in a guarded way and question their motives and general needs before I engage them… MANY times he/she/they REALLY do not need anything but want attention… So I have found treating them as shallow and giving them as little of myself is often the best way to interact with abuse. If something is needed and it is REASONABLE and a necessity and I have a real choice to do or not to do then I will often do what is required… If I start to see abuse or a false choice of my say to do for the other person then I most likely will not do what is being demanded from me made to sound like a request. So having said the above such would make me sound abusive as treating regular people, however, when dealing with abusive situations and people you don't interact the same normal way… Just wanted to post for the purpose clarification of how abuse affects the behavior of a victim of Narcissistic abusive people. Later :)

  14. This guy sounds like begood4000

  15. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.Common traits of many many people.

  16. If you're a fan of British T.V., you would say Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced Bouquet) is the most lovable, funniest narcissist in the world! Good old English people they find humour in the worst things I love it!!!!

  17. sorry left out the word month

  18. My ex-boyfriend fits many of the personality characteristics that you described in this video.  The interesting part is that anything that he did for me; a restaurant, movie, taking me to an appointment, he held over my head and constantly talked about it and demanded that I should do something for him in return.  He was also talking about marrying me within the first of us of being together.  Are both of these characteristics of a narcissist?

  19. These videos need to get to the point.

  20. Ok yeah he is a narcissist ! *the person I'm thinking of…
