  1. Narcissist is just a fancy word for one of a couple types of people. Perhaps more, but I have a couple. Evil people that know exactly what they are doing, and insane people that don't understand what they are doing or the effect is has on others or themselves and don't have the ability to learn from their experiences in the same way others do.

  2. Wow . It feels so good to hear someone that understands the situation that some men can be in . I don't think you could of described my life any more accurately . I won custody of our daughter but she called and lied to the police and although she didn't press charges on me the district attorney filed charges on me and I'm still fighting it 7 months later . Now she uses our daughters visitation and the fact that I'm terrified of the way she can lie to the police and not even feel bad . But she says she loves me . Its so hard and I feel so stupid for not wanting to believe all the signs and think that some day she will change and care about the way she treats me . I recognize now that I am co dependant and terrified of being alone . All I ever wanted was someone to love me for me and because she can see that she used it as a way to take advantage and control me . I know she even got pregnant as a way to keep control over me . She told me over and over you'll never leave . But I have left because I cant let my daughter grow up thinking that treating me with zero respect and abusing me is ok . She has no disgression weather or not she is in front of our daughter . I never wanted to take my daughter away from her mom but when shes doing nothing but hurting her and does not even try to be a good example to her or teach her right from wrong what choice do I have . Its such a mess. I know I need to keep a paper trail like you said , its just so hard and I'm so exhausted mentaly its hard to think about it and right it all down . I had been keeping a journal while I was living there and of coarse she found it read it and got rid of it . I tried writing like three more but she would go through every inch of my things when I was not around and eventually I would slip up and she got three more of them and got rid of them . Its such a night mare . Now me and my 2 year old daughter are homeless and staying with friends and family , the problem is its in the bay area and everyone has money so theres barley any housing programs and almost every thing related to domestic violence is for women , and then when I do try to tell someone about it they look at me like I'm an idiot . LIke just because I'm a man that I cant be abused . When really her abuse is the most traumatic thing ive ever experienced in my 30 years and I have ptsd and am struggling with it every single day . Anyways I just wanted to let you know its not just your mom and family watching these . Your videos have really helped me a lot . Thank you

  3. Yes, there are definitely many narcissistic women out there. I know because I have dated or married most of them.
    Thanks very much for all your videos, you're doing a great job.

  4. 80% female at least.
    You have the mother position to dwell upon. You have supposed fragility to dwell upon. etc.
    Black women even have this image of the black male savage to hit us black men with. So…

    I'd say 70% of women are narcissists.
    80% of narcissists are women.

  5. It is humiliating, degrading, emasculating to experience abuse. When you return to your abuser, as I did, the self-hatred grows. The depression worsens. The anxiety worsens. You can blame the woman but you are also part of the dance. Don't even try going to marriage therapy. My experience has been that you end up looking like the crazy one anyway. As your anxiety grows – the more you become 'crazy'. As Richard Grannon, Sam Vaknin, and Dana said – try your best to leave. It is easier said than done. You do not want to go down that path of self-hatred. I speak from experience, sadness, anger, frustration, betrayal.

  6. Watching this really opened my eye's to behaviors I just experienced from a recent relationship..thank you!!! it's like taking the red pill (Matrix) cause this woman had me thinking I was crazy! thanks for the video and insight on female narcissism.

  7. The woman I was just in a relationship with a covert and now it's like I've played right into it. As now I'm trying to talk to this person and they're threatening police involvement and no contact orders. Like you've said, she now has the he's crazy and also the alcoholic card. She was in school for being a counselor and used to come at me saying I was the narc and I would often tell her to look in a mirror. She is also a "healer", "reiki master" and I think the harshest was when I said "how can you be a healer and be so vicious" Things have not been the same since I said that to her. Things started out so great but there was always hoop after hoop. I think I knew but for some reason I'm drawn to these people, I can't figure it out. In the past 6 months we have broken up and got back together about 6 or 8 times. I really need to just cut my losses and be thankful it's over but there is that "unicorn" part that keeps me coming back. ARGH!!!

  8. I have learned to never date anyone this is current or previous military… Two back to back Narcissist women.. The absolute worst I've ever been treated.

  9. Weems by nature are more narcissist then man, but women have a safe haven, label, and social acceptance, and the law , so therefore guys dump the bitch, mgtow

  10. no shit we do ….i hate the fact that all narc vids are aimed at he or she……..what about they ??????? make it none sexed, ……………………………………….just an idea

  11. Why are you so beautiful Thrive after Abuse?

  12. when a narcissist is crushed by a bad experience and all the horrible things people say to them, reminding them of their failures, how can we help them get their tail up again and return to the high esteemed, smiling, charming, bragging girl we fell in love with?

  13. ……….Covert???? Hell, Which ones are hiding?

  14. I would also like to add, this is an abuse of the Inner person, not the outer person, so, gender doesn't matter.

  15. There is no shame at all in Men acknowledging this kind of abuse from women. I have been the victim of two of these women now. Narcissists are Narcissists period. This personality disorder trumps their "gender traits personality" if that makes any sense. I have a black belt in karate, I am also a student of kung fu, and I am if I may say so, tough as nails. Emotionally, and intellectually I am like chewing on rocks. Admittedly, I can be a softhearted man deep inside. I am 6'2" My most recent abuser I am 99% sure is a narcissist, and she is only 4'8" and 90Ibs. A real man fights back, and this fight is with knowledge, and information, because it is simply a different kind of self defense. So, arm yourself with this information.

  16. whats a flying monkey?

  17. This video is very correct. Also in the media and society women are portrayed as the victims and incapable of doing wrong. Anyone with discernment and a brain can very quickly pick up that that's disinformation.

  18. max

    lots of female narcists wake up!'

  19. I'm married to a narcissist. My triumphs are minor and my mistakes are huge. I've been talked down to and cussed out in front of our kids and her parents. The main reason that I'm still with her is because of the kids. I provide balance and safety from her rage. She keeps me from my friends and the hobbies that I enjoy. Your videos give me a great reference guide. I understand that it's not all in my head or that I'm overreacting like she tries to convince me of. I never thought marriage would be this way, guess it's my luck. Keep the videos coming they're important.

  20. Thanks for your work Dana,so much appreciated..The subtle abuse men face in our modern culture is horrendous..The discard ,the demeaning disguised as humor..We are portrayed as the lower speices and basically a bad versions of the ideal woman,that does not exist.

  21. how in the hell do I get out when I am disabled and broke?

  22. If we had an argument.. she was always threatening to call the cops & that id never see my son (from my previous marriage–figure that one?)..when she wasn't busy slamming doors and throwing things are yelling at me -or getting drunk kicking & punching..never once did i hit back-but I did restrain..which left bruises on her arms..didn't take me long to realize that she was waaay more that a "bitch"…

  23. this list of behaviors describes a woman I know extremely well. what an absolutely horrible human being she is too.

  24. Please also talk about same sex couples who are in a relationship with a narcissist. I've just divorced my wife who is a narcissist. Similar issues, but I'm not a man, so there is mostly more emotionality. Thanks! Your videos are very helpful! I'm a therapist and plan to share with some of my clients who can really use them too.

  25. im curious, are u a feminist by any means? most women who suffered abuse by their "soulmate" tend to become illogical feminists and im sort of getting that vibe from u.

  26. how would you describe a husband that agrees to adopt her child and then later on asking for a child when it was agreed to not have more children.going so far as to say this is what god wants. give me a child or make god angry.

  27. Men go through it in life too…Respects to all our MEN ! xxxxx blessings and peace…
