One of the essential ingredients to gaslighting –it is predicated on trust or connection or attachment. We want to be close to gaslighter. It's the only way it can work. Because if a stranger gaslighted me or someone I don't care about, I'm like leave me alone, get the hell away from me. I could take that stance. But if it's someone I love or care about I'm not going to be that dismissive. I trust them so there will be plausibility to what they say.

April 1

In the early phases of gaslighting, people usually fight back. They'll say no, that is absolutely not true and we push back. The problem is, Robin Stern talks about this process. The challenge is that when we push back, gaslighting isn't lying. If we catch someone in lie and we give them the evidence of lie, then the liar will say you got me. Gaslighter will never going to cop to it. They don't try deny evidence, they try to dismantle you.

April 1

If you push back a lot, especially early in the relationship as many of us do, they will then doubt your commitment. And may say “Maybe we're not compatible”. And they threaten abandonment. And that threat is one of gaslighting tools that they're almost testing the waters. If you knew narcissism you'd say bye and it's all over. They're probably come back though. But most of us don't want it to end, our own abandonment wounds.
Then they relent.

Narcissistic person is hitting two parts of us. A healthy part and unhealthy part. The unhealthy part is our self-doubt. People who stay in narcissistic relationships longer either have standing history of self doubt or it's developed in relationship. Healthy part of us they're hitting is our flexibility: able to see situation from different perspectives. But when you put self-doubt together, when narc puts plausible doubts, “yeah, maybe he's right”

They will blame you for everything. They will blame you for their harm. There's also a lot of criticism in these relationships, it feels like you can't do anything right. A lot of it is byproduct of projected perfectionism. You start to believe if you get it perfect enough, then this would work out. These are also riddled with contempt. It's almost they're disgusted by you. But they don't cut you loose because you're source of supply.

One thing I tell clients is don't go deep. Don't defend, don't engage, don't explain and don't personalize. When you get into mud, you'll never going to get out of it, it's like quicksand. Just don't engage with them. Keeping it at surface level. Don't share good nor bad stuff with them. They will often not be supportive the way you need. Slipping is not bad, slip reminds you that this is not changing.

I feel like mental health has come up short is we've often told people you can figure this all out yourself, it's all inside of you. I'm like–no, no. There's a context happening outside of you and we need to be able to call that context what it is. It's not that I want people to swim in that forever. I want them putting them in the driver's seat. But we've been asking people to make changes in themselves without understanding what they're up against

I was extremely closed off when I was in primary school. I don't think I realized how so at the time. Because I felt like when I was at home I was quite an open and honest person and I didn't have that many boundaries. And I felt surely when I'm at school people can see that, people can see I'm quite an open person, they'll get the vibe. No. I walk in blank expression.

You might edit out negative emotions as well. Autistic shutdown can be seen as kind of internalization of an autistic meltdown. Build yourself up as somebody more socially acceptable. Closely connected to blank mask is Fawning and People pleasing. Try to make yourself look appealing to whatever is threatening to you. Try to be nice, try not to upset anyone, push down your own needs. Passive and smile, reassure others around

If you're masking another type of neurodivergence, these may apply to you too, but I only have the personal experience of masking as an autistic person. I've also been reading and researching autistic masking specifically. I don't know how much of this would apply to other groups.

Apr 2

I reassure the other person that I like them, look I'm finding you funny, because I know how stressful social situations can be and I'm kind of projecting onto them and I want them to feel ok. because I know how much social situations sometimes don't make me feel ok. I realized I complained a lot, use dramatic language to describe situation, I learned don't do that. Not everybody deserve that.

I've read if you don't mask you risk of being ostracized by people around you. But if you do mask, then you're practicing self-ostracization. Because you're saying your true Self who you are as a person is not good enough. And the only way to succeed is by being someone else. And if it does work to some extent, and you get approval from other people, that's just reinforcing that same message that your true Self is not welcome here. It can mess up your identity.

Monotropic split – when we mask we're splitting our attention between all the different aspects of socializing in a way that's just not natural for us. In order to make ourselves seem like we're like everyone else, polytropic/neurotypical people. Masking was a risk marker for autistic people wanting to take their own lives. It is serious. Letting yourself to be autistic without need to pretend. Doing in autistic way.

Toxic people can be masterful at turning the table on you, making you the issue for having an issue.

This works really well because it does two things:

1. It makes you wonder if things would have gone better, maybe even resolved, if you had just kept your mouth shut.
2. And, now you’re the one in the hot seat defending yourself.

When we go after this type of control we wind up feeling and behaving more out of control trying to get control, we wind up very reactive and so it backfires. We want our energies to be useful not futile. Getting our needs met not get us further away from those needs met. Trying to have just everything right, safe, organized, perfectionistic vision. If we look deeply – smothering, overbearing, forces help, control mood

This talk delves into the pervasive quest for control—over our emotions, interactions, and the environment around us. It highlights the paradox that in our desperate pursuit of control, we often end up feeling more out of control, especially when unrecognized personality disorder traits play a role. Acknowledging these patterns is the first step towards change. The discussion also explores the nuances of people pleasing, a behavior that, while seemingly benign, can mask a subtle form of control, contrasting with the more overt disruptions associated with borderline personality disorder. By understanding and acknowledging these dynamics, we open the door to healthier ways of interacting with ourselves and others, moving from a place of control to one of insight and compassion.

Director
Claude Zidi Jr.
Writers
Raphaël BenolielCyrille DrouxClaude Zidi Jr.
Antoine, a young Parisian suburbanite, studies accounting without much conviction, dividing his time between the rap battles he practices with talent and his job as a sushi delivery boy. During an errand at the Garnier Opera, his path crosses that of Mrs LOYSEAU, a singing teacher in the venerable institution, who detects in Antoine a raw talent to be developed. Despite his lack of operatic culture, Antoine is fascinated by this form of expression and is convinced to follow Mrs Loyseau's teaching. Antoine has no choice but to lie to his family, his friends and the whole city, for whom opera is a bourgeois thing, far from their world.

When we are compartmentalizing ourselves like that and denying things like comfort or rest, or joy, because we think that people who need those things are pathetic and weak, what we are doing is guaranteeing future burnout. Because human beings need all of those things. And if we do not intentionally give ourselves those for long enough, our bodies will eventually revolt to get those needs met in other ways: sick, depressed, anxious beyond measure.

If you have toxic shame what you need to be focusing on is not self-esteem, because for you self-esteem is likely to look more like a dissociative fantasy. And what you need to focus on first and foremost is developing dignity. Dignity is art of respecting all parts of ourselves – even the parts of ourselves that we wish were different. Be willing to stay present and on page with ourselves. To face whatever pain, focus and find real solutions.

There is psychologist Dr Marsha M. Linehan who has concept checking whether our shame fits the facts. Shame lets us know we are going to get rejected. Check if I am going to get rejected if I behave in that way or say that thing? Or is it something I developed a belief around because at the time I formed this belief it would get me rejected. But maybe here it doesn't apply. Become self aware about environment we place ourselves in. Option - new communities.

Experiencing a relationship with a narcissist,
Will lower your self-esteem.
Ruins your ability to form healthy relationships.
Can cause mental health issues like, PTSD, anxiety and depression.
It can manifest physical health problems
And significantly raise your chance of suicide

If you have low selfesteem or low self-worth, you might be accidentally hurting the people in your life indifferent or checked out in the areas where they would actually appreciate some proactive help or support from you.

As soon as we see the negative thing, the thing that our brain logs as a risk, we're going to latch onto that and make it the entirety of our experience. And then once again we're going to be in that negative loop of projecting outward something that we believe to be true about another person and showing up as it is true, which gets us into that negative feedback loop.
People respond primarily to energy we give to them. Make other person uncomfortable.

Masking can increase social anxiety for autistic.
Just because on a surface level somebody seems to have good communication skills and be able to make eye contact, that doesn't mean that everything is magical for them. It starts with I want people to like me and I want to fit in. I have to do what they expect of me by masking. I can't look after myself and meet my own needs too. I burn out. Then I withdraw.

If you complained about sensory issue you might have been told you're overreacting. That you were too sensitive. That your experience was just wrong and then that isn't how it is for everyone else – it's just you.

“I grew up being told I was wrong: too sensitive, too serious, not ladylike etc. I wasn't sure who I was.” You might think yeah I suppose I am usually the one that's in the wrong and others are usually right so therefore my abuser must be right. Because many autistic don't understand societal norms, if an abusive person senses that they may be able to gaslight you and tell you certain things everybody does this. Can lead to risky situations.

When we are not in touch with the truth and when the goodness in us is not nurtured, what happens is we become chronically dysregulated. Because it is a human need to think of ourselves as okay. So if we are chronically being told by the people whose care we are in that we are not okay, that there is something wrong with us, and that we are morally bad people, we are going to need to go to extremes to comfort ourselves.

Sit down and investigate that belief. It's easier to just internalize “I am bad”, “I am wrong”, “I hurt people by virtue of who I authentically am”, and so anytime something goes wrong in a relationship I am to blame. Caveat is if you have a lot of trauma you might have harder time in relationship than average person. You might have more triggers, make healthy relating difficult, but this is significantly different reality from “I am bad person who ruins people's lives”.

It's one that it's so hard to break the pattern of. Because you can always find the exception. You can always find the one thing that you did wrong – and go see – I knew it, it is my fault that the entire relationship is a mess. When in reality one thing that you did wrong is one thing that you did wrong. And people do wrong things chronically in relationship. In a healthy secure dynamic you will do things wrong. You are not cause of their unhappiness. Heal

IMDb trivia:
Hollywood legend claims that, during the filming of Rock Hudson and Doris Day's bathing suit scene (set on a soundstage beach) one of Hudson's testicles kept popping out from his swimtrunks. While screening dailies the next afternoon, the crew laughed so hard, they became teary-eyed, especially when the projectionist figured how to roll the film back-and-forth so it looked like Hudson's testicle was doing a "dance."

Soon it became clear to me that I can't escape or outrun it. It's just the matter of how to grapple and make the most out of it because remember – it is not about the reaction but instead the response.
Handle rejection with beauty and grace.
Every single time that you get rejected it unveils a brand new door filled with opportunities hat will help you accumulate more opportunities than being accepted could ever possibly garner.

Hans Selye, a Hungarian scientist who worked in Montreal, Canada, showed that a chronic "alarm state" (anticipating problems requiring "flight") leads to an "exhaustion state" which depletes the immune system.

There is a cult persona that you develop when you go into cult. After the bait. The real you is buried beneath there somewhere. Now you have this way of behaving, euphoric fantasy. You are not aware of all trauma. The problem with panic attacks is buried down there. Person I thought I was better person – didn't have panic attacks. When I left all the panic attacks came back. Because I accessed again how traumatized I was, emotionally disemboweled I felt.

Split personality– dissociated. It is basically there's a version of you that you become which you think is a fuller version and it's not.
Freud came up with idea that you as a subject split the object, all together good and bad. Melanie Klein says yes but in order to split Mark good & bad, I have to split my own ego, in order to relate to you as you're good and bad parts, I have to develop good and bad parts.

Narcissistic supply was first identified by Otto Fenichel in 1938. He identified it as a way for the individual to garner admiration and support and validation in order to bolster their self esteem. When we're studying narcissistic personality disorder there are 3 elements of narcissistic supply. 1) help them bolster delusional self-image. This is person who's living half in half out of this reality. They chosen grandiose version of reality.

Narc supply is the fuel that keeps that dream alive. 2) You are their narc supply. Form of admiration, and validation. More about keeping fantasy going. In shared fantasy you absorb coordinates, like it's very important to keep dream alive: you forget when they did bad thing, you dissociate. Being coerced to be member of their cult. It's covert contract, not conscious. 3) It's never egalitarian, never transaction giving and receiving. Only above you.

They split reality and they split you. And now you are split in two different sections. You start to store your memories separately in two separate spaces. Because you couldn't stand to have them both in the same space. So in order to keep them split, whenever you have a thought “He cheated on me”, the narcissistic defense kicks in and goes “No, but that was your fault”. “You made him do that, you caused that abuse”.

Since PDA happens because we feel like we don't have a choice, and we have to do something, you can tell yourself not to do the thing that you should be really doing. By making the demand the thing we aren't supposed to do, at least in our head, we can sometimes motive ourselves to do it. Role playing – way to trick our mind to find joy and fun carrying on the task not doing it as ourselves in this scary NT world. Demand not on you

our lives are fraught with desire, guilt and anxiety, especially anxiety about our being-for-others. That is, our anxiety about what other people think of us. This leads us to suffer such irksome emotions as guilt, shame and embarrassment.
📖 How to Be an Existentialist: or How to Get Real, Get a Grip and Stop Making Excuses

How to Be an Existentialist is a witty and entertaining book about the philosophy of existentialism. It is also a genuine self-help book offering clear advice on how to live according to the principles of existentialism formulated by Nietzsche, Sartre, Camus, and the other great existentialist philosophers. An attack on contemporary excuse culture, the book urges us to face the hard existential truths of the human condition. By revealing that we are all inescapably free and responsible - 'condemned to be free,' as Sartre says - the book aims to empower the reader with a sharp sense that we are each the master of our own destiny. Cox makes fun of the reputation existentialism has for being gloomy and pessimistic, exposing it for what it really is - an honest, uplifting, and potentially life changing philosophy!

Apr 14

you can go on to live an honest and worthwhile life in spite of the fact that human existence is ultimately pointless and absurd. The general idea is that you can’t create a genuinely honest and worthwhile life for yourself on the basis of a fairytale.
You have to build your life on an understanding and acceptance of how things really are, otherwise you will always be fooling and deluding yourself as you hanker after impossibilities like complete happiness and total fulfilment.
📖 How to Be an...

Ironically, existentialism is saying, if you want to
be happy, or at least be happier, stop struggling to achieve complete
happiness because that way only leads to disappointment.

Apr 14

Some of the most unhappy people in the world are those who hold firmly to the false belief that complete  happiness is achievable, that there is such a state as ‘happily ever after’. They are constantly hurt and frustrated that they never manage, for example, to transform their life into an endless summer afternoon in a rose filled cottage garden. Such a paradise is unachievable
📖 How to Be an Existentialist: or How to Get Real, Get a Grip and Stop Making Excuses

Such
a paradise is unachievable, not only because the price of cottages in
the country is beyond most people’s financial reach, but because summer afternoons in the real world always turn to evening, because roses
have thorns and their flowers wilt and because more than a few days
in even the most beautiful garden becomes utterly boring. Actually, my
cat spends everyday of his life patrolling the garden, his garden, and
never gets bored, but he is a cat not a human

 Apr 14

a person can still create a sense of purpose through the struggle itself and through the way he plays life’s game.

True existentialists never wish they were something else, they will it, they actively strive to change themselves.

For existentialist philosophers freedom is not essentially about what people are at liberty to do
📖 How to Be an Existentialist: or How to Get Real, Get a Grip and Stop Making Excuses

Apr 14

It is vital to a proper understanding of the existentialist theory of personal freedom to realize that it is just as much a theory of personal responsibility. Freedom is not freedom from responsibility, freedom is having to make choices and therefore having to take responsibility

 There are two types of worry that lead to anxiety. Productive worry which is worry about doing things, homework, getting to work on time, remembering to charge your phone, these traits contribute to the helpful planning side of anxiety. And then there's poisonous worry. Worry about things you cannot control, thunderstorms, whether people will like you, plane you're on. Anxiety affects our motivation, ability to complete our task, memory, self esteem.

ADDitude Magazine

Apr 15

Mindfulness and meditation can be very helpful. To settle yourself down. That is the traditional way that we think about dealing with anxiety. When we deal with social anxiety, there are some differences. Social anxiety is debilitating fear that someone may humiliate you, reject you, it's fundamentally attached to a core belief of deficiency. It can restrict activities, interest, relationships. Perception is I am in danger while doing that.

In social anxiety there is a fundamental disconnect between how a person actually appears to others and their own exaggerated often negative perceptions of themselves. This is one of the reasons why social anxiety was removed from the phobia category. Because it's more than a phobia. It's not just I'm afraid of spiders or elevator. There's underlying core beliefs that are activated.

Change the relationship to worry by investigating it. Like a puzzle. Instead of hating it, wishing it would go away, spending a lot of time on why why why – we want to look at What, How, Where and When. Instead of saying I wish I never worry, we're going to expect to worry. Worry says blah blah blah and you can't handle it. Anxiety in general is an overestimation of the problem and an underestimation of the resources available to deal with.

There's an overidentification with I feel whatever the feeling is. That makes it tough to witness our feelings and step back from them, and see them more neutrally. Because the feeling is who I am. It's not something I am experiencing. There's flooding of intense feelings which overwhelms to think what is going on, consequences of our choices. Memory challenge-you can't retreat pass successes and apply them to the the present.

Social anxiety, RSD, perfectionism and imposter syndrome all share a fundamental issue – we have core sense of deficiency, a belief that you are not enough, that you could easily fail, or be excluded because of being different, or doing something wrong that you didn't know wasn't okay but you receiving immediate feedback it wasn't okay. Neurodivergent, living years of receiving criticism and experiencing judgements, sense of not being enough.

Inefficient coping mechanism for managing anxiety, related to disappointment, yours or someone else's. Perfection is directly related to to a need for approval. Imposter syndrome reflects feeling that your are fraud or phony. Since you are not perfect, and you can never achieve perfection then you must be fundamentally flawed. And you're hiding those flaws under the successes. No amount of success lessen that wound.

They strive for perfection to compensate for that deep fear of failure that they carry around that could lead to exclusion, rejection, judgements. Often lack confidence in relationships – worry what people are thinking about you, and you think you know what that is. That is direct component of social anxiety. In RSD we anticipate rejection of trouble in new situations. RSD is product of being criticized and judged negatively for being who you are.

The narcissist dysregulate everyone around him. Wreck havoc and chaos wherever he goes. And it is by observing other people's reactions actually that we can safely diagnose narcissism. Because if you try to diagnose narcissism via test, structure and interviews, that's nonsense. There is no one to talk to. I think it's major mistake to try treat narcissist with adult psychology or adult psychotherapy. They're not adults. You need to use child psychology

Obligation is a necessary fact of life. And essential for the function of society. But how we respond to each individual commitment can be difficult to predict. The context of obligation is not only determined by magnitude, the nature of a task, the people it obliges us to, our competence and confidence and any reward of consequence all factor into our perception. Responses are entirely framed by personal momentary context.

You get to choose what grows in your life. What you're feeding is getting stronger. If you're feeding doubt, think about what you can't do, how the obstacles are too big, how you're at disadvantage because you are feeding it – that doubt is getting bigger. If you're feeding fear – I'll get laid off, sick, that fear is growing, you help it becoming reality. If you wonder why we don't have confidence it's because we're feeding the wrong things.

Mountain Brigade 10 was ready for its mission: to defend the southwestern part of the Swiss Alps.

Many people live life allowing everything on the outside affect their peace and joy on the inside from stress, hurt, people’s words and attitudes to even simple things like traffic. But there is a better way to live. Jesus said in John 14:1, “Stop allowing yourself to be upset.” Learn how to shut the door on the negative so you can protect your secret place.

A mask hides the exact opposite of that. Like weaknesses and emotionality and sensitivity. There is part that is terrified, unacceptable to them. Another example is chronic aggression – masking a great need for control, covers up insecurity. Actually insecure and fragile inside.

Immediately go from zero to 60 on their anxiety. When you are anxious of being anxious you teach your brain anxiety is dangerous, anxiety is threat. Now you are more likely to get in future panic attacks because you trained your brain, taught your brain that anxiety is threat, danger.

Henderson described three types of psychopaths. Aggressive psychopaths were violent, suicidal, and prone to substance abuse. Passive and inadequate psychopaths were over sensitive, unstable and  hypochondriacal. They were also introverts, schizoids, and pathological liars. Creative psychopaths were all dysfunctional people who managed to become famous or infamous somehow, despite their disorder.

Moral Insanity is Nothing New!

1,964 views  21 Apr 2024  Nothingness and Mental Health
In 1835, the British J. C. Pritchard, working as senior Physician at the Bristol Infirmary (hospital), published a seminal work titled "Treatise on Insanity and Other Disorders of the Mind". He, in turn, suggested the neologism "moral insanity".

To quote him, moral insanity consisted of "a morbid perversion of the natural feelings, affections, inclinations, temper, habits, moral dispositions, and natural impulses without any remarkable disorder or defect of the intellect or knowing or reasoning faculties and in particular without any insane delusion or hallucination" (p. 6).

He then proceeded to elucidate the psychopathic (antisocial) personality in great detail.

Thus, "psychopathic personality" came to mean both "abnormal" and "antisocial". This confusion persists to this very day. Scholarly debate still rages between those, such as the Canadian Robert, Hare, who distinguish the psychopath from the patient with mere antisocial personality disorder and those (the orthodoxy) who wish to avoid ambiguity by using only the latter term.

Moreover, these nebulous constructs resulted in co-morbidity. Patients were frequently diagnosed with multiple and largely overlapping personality disorders, traits, and styles. As early as 1950, Schneider wrote:

You don't need to be in relationship with a narcissist in order to leave a relationship. If you are with somebody who consistently is not listening to your demands, who you are saying “look, when you do this, this and this, it's extremely painful and I'm making the demand that you stop hurting me”, and they just keep on doing it, because it's convenient for them to do so. You can start looking for the exit. You have that right.

Overcompensating in relationships – Do you struggle to maintain relationships? Do you try really, really hard and they seem to break down anyway? If so, chances are you're overcompensating, which means trying even harder will likely lead to even worse results. Instead of asking myself what do I feel like doing, I would focus on what others are expecting of me. Trying is good up to a point. Trying too hard is not good.

Have you ever asked yourself, "Why are my relationships failing?" Maybe you need to know how to let go of dysfunctional relationships. If you're anything like me, you can relate to putting a lot of work into relationships, but it doesn't always pay off. Often, when I give too much work in a relationship, everything goes well until I need something in return. This happens because of overcompensation. We tend to try too hard to overcompensate in a bad relationship. What's wrong with trying? While trying is good, overdoing it isn't. In this video, I'll share how to recognize overcompensating behaviour and three ways to overcome it to maintain good relationships.

Honor society is about shame covering shame. In authority position they create all kinds of rules about what looks honorable. What will make the leader good because the family looks good. They aren't about truly what is loving, the main priority is about looking good, hiding shame. So it becomes the culture with 1000s rules, rules about everything, spoken, unspoken. If you grew up in that culture knowing rules makes you honorable, superior, give you status

Shame based leader has created all these rules, others have bought into these rules and over time those rules and that thinking take over the culture. Society adapt them and that is shame-based society. Rules are intended to give you map how to be great, superior to others. All life now have become competition. It's about proving you're better than somebody else, superior. It's all about compensating for shame, hiding shame.Use fear as motivating to submit

Hospitality is a huge characteristic of shame based cultures. You have to provide hospitality to people but that gets twisted into becoming it's an obligation. Not out of genuine love with no strings attached, now you're doing it so they're obligated to you. Now you're doing it to look good. Now you're doing it to show how powerful and wealthy you are. All of that gets distorted. Indirect communication gets twisted into dishonesty.

I also started learning how to change stories in my mind of who this person was. So if someone was giving me criticism – did it mean I was a bad person? No. Did it mean they were the bad person? No. They were just giving me their opinion. And maybe their opinion may actually help me. Accept the fact that I'm human, flawed, and I'm not perfect, and it's okay if someone thinks something different than what I think about myself.

Something I dont have to focus on so much anymore but others are still in the back of my mind.

Exit codependency and the entrance into their own advocacy and their own satisfaction. That starts with understanding what the shame identity is. And starting to dis-identify with it.
Have things that matter to you – it could be loving relationship, fulfilling friendships, having a successful career or business, simply enjoying daily experience without burden of shame and perfectionism.

Codependency And Shame - What's Really Happening

You cannot become free of your codependency until you break free of what I call "Your Root Identity".

Codependency depends on a root identity.

What is a root identity?  It is an identity that you FEEL and experience as utterly true about yourself.

You filter the world through this identity and it controls how you live your life.

Learn what this root identity is and what do to about it so you are free from it.

Zero sum game is when my gain is your loss. Win – lose. No one can lose without someone else winning. Rich people want you to believe that capitalism is not zero sum game, that anyone in capitalism can win, this is false hope, delusional American dream. The truth is that rich are getting richer and poor are getting poorer because it is zero sum game. They give you false hope because they are terrified of revolutions in general.

Social mobility in the Unites States is lower than it is in all socialist industrial countries. Such as Scandinavia, France, Germany, Canada. Social mobility is when you make more money than your parents, when you are more educated than your parents, when you end up on higher ladder than your parents.

Things that originally developed as the solution to shame, the ways of coping – now actually feed shame. They seem to fix shame originally but they are feeding shame. They always have been- you just didn't see it. Perfectionism. You thought if I could be perfect then that would solve my shame because I would be good enough. But nobody can be perfect. So you end up with system now where you strive for perfection which feeds shame. People pleasing backfires.

Second way you hand over your power to narcissist – You feel the need to justify who you are. You think you must come up with good explanation why I do things that I do, my reasoning. They think – you work hard to look good to me, it means my opinion is necessary, it feeds their egotism the more you overly justify who you are.

They need you to respond in state of disarray so that they can prove to them why they are better and you're worst, and it validates their narrative. They project their ugliness onto you.

It's my right to say it does not work for me. Sometimes it is take it or leave it. That is deal breaker. No – we can't come back from this if you step over this line. Some may say you're being judgmental, you're finicky, you're hard to get along with. Me saying something doesn't work for me doesn't mean saying something crappy about you. They interpret it as rejection. If you setting boundary blows relationship, it wasn't healthy to begin with.
🟥 Boundaries
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rfl8ANKvN98

Boundaries are like a language, you need to learn: 

1. What are your preferences?
2. What are your desires?
3. What are your limits?
4. What are your dealbreakers? 

Then there are different categories inside: 

1. Physical 
2. Material
3. Mental
4. Emotional 

The question should always be:
What feels right for you? 

Boundaries are essential to letting the other person know, who you truly are, which goes hand in hand with being authentic in your life, which means being internal & external being consistent. 

Why is it difficult to set clear boundaries?
1. You often don't have the words
2. You do not know who you are from the inside 
3. You avoid conflicts
4. You were trained to tolerate too much
5. Especially in history it was not common for women to demand something
6. You fear rejection 

Boundaries are healthy because they are a bridge to one another, which can deepen any relationship!!! 

How can you practize setting boundaries?
》Find out who you are
》Then start with distant people to train setting these boundaries
Be aware: 
》It is okay to say what you want for this gives clearness to yourself and the other person. 
》Clear boundaries will give you inner peace
》Protect yourself by not revealing too much too soon, instead slow down
》Expect pushbacks from the other 

》》"Navigate the conflicts in your life by being the storm yourself and the boat is your life" 

Thank you Dr Carter for introducing Terri Cole with this very important subject of boundaries

I am so excited to have Dr. Ramani on the show today to discuss concepts from her new book, It's Not You: How to Identify and Heal from Narcissistic People. Many of you are likely familiar with her work, and for good reason- she is a brilliant clinician who breaks down narcissism in an accessible way, which helps people heal.

I've been a fan of hers for years and I am thrilled to bring you this conversation where we explore everything ranging from how narcissists are made, the impact of love bombing on victims, how narcissistic supply works and what it is, the difference between narcissism and Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and what the healing process looks like. 

I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

Narcissism is tactic, they use tactic all the time. Their consistent core self is deeply insecure, combative, wants to be in power, control, dominating, needs a lot of admiration. They switch the rules once they have you where they want you. If you could educate people they'd know what they are up against. And at minimum they stop blaming themselves. Stop blaming yourself. This is the them thing. It's not you.

The core of narcissistic person is very fragile. That's why they lose it when you critique them. Or give them feedback. Or don't read their mind. Or don't do exactly what they want. And that's why they use all kinds of tactics like manipulation, gaslighting, invalidation, dismissiveness, competitiveness, betrayal. Some of them are tactics, some are unemphatic behavior. And it gives them the upper hand in relationship. Control, power gives them supply.

Maladaptive personality style – because people who have it are often at odds with other people. They're arguing, they're screaming, they're never content. They're malcontented people, they lack flexibility. I think we need to get rid of diagnosis. Because it muddies the waters, ICD11 got rid of the personality disorder characterization. In DSM, in USA we still have NPD. That begs the question –according to whom? Because narc thinks he's wonderful

It's their behavior that is affecting you. You can't see their internal processes. All you can see is how it's coming out at you, and that's behavior. And that behavior is the problem. That behavior is not going to change. All decisions from this point forward on are based on this behavior is not going to change. People were holding on to “maybe when they get promotion” future faking.

You're no longer going to play the game of what can I do differently to get them to behave differently – because the answer is to that is nothing. That's radical acceptance. It takes long time. And it's not just accepting their behavior is not going to change, it's also the way it affects you is also not going to change. Just because you radically accept doesn't mean that somebody screaming at you is going to hurt any less- it does,it hurts a lot

People say it bothers me when they say these things. I say, because they say bothersome things. I don't want you to lose that part of you. That part is good index what is okay, what's not. From that point – excavation. A person pulling their true self out of their relationships. If you grew up with narcissistic parent, it was a true self that never even got to develop. It's how much your identity got co-opted. What do I like, what do I stand for.

I'm not setting boundary with these people. “Don't do this with me”. “Don't say this with me”. It's all internal. Because if you try to set a boundary with someone who's narcissistic or antagonistic – it's never going to work. And I think it's unsafe guidance to give.
With this dangerous person no. But what are you willing to tolerate. How can you protect yourself emotionally. What access can you remove. Move these people from VIP section.
