Traumatic symptoms are not caused by the "triggering" event itself. They stem from the frozen residue of energy that had not been resolved or discharged; this residue remains trapped in the nervous system where it can wreck havoc on our bodies and spirits.

"Crucial Confrontations: Tools for talking about broken promises, violated expectations, and bad behavior"
Narcissist regards his dysfunctional behaviours – social, sexual, emotional, mental – as conclusive and irrefutable proof of his superiority, brilliance, distinction, prowess, might, or success. Rudeness to others is reinterpreted as efficiency.
"NPD Quotes", Sam Vaknin
Narcissists should be held accountable for most of what they do because they can tell wrong from right AND they can refrain from taking the actions they do take. He simply doesn't care to do so. Others are not important enough to him.

The environment send you stimuli (provide information). A specific Self state is selected. Self-state activates construct. Construct interfaces with reality, gathers information, filters it, re-frames it in order to conform to self state.

Construct also changes your memory. It kind if represses some memories, emphasizes other memories, creates selective memory. It alters perception of reality, it alters your memories, then induces in you behaviours to Self state uphold.

This is done via interjects. Interjects are our internal voices in your head that send out a stream of automatic thoughts. The constructs activate/trigger specific interjects. Then automatic thoughts shape your behaviour, then you create specific outcomes.

Interjects example for people pleasing: if you love/like people, if you want to please people if you feel you are someone's mother or daddy figure, you are going to withhold your happiness. You'll suppress your joy not to burden on nearest.

In The Republic, Plato explains why democracy is a poor form of government.
Democratic governments have to take the short-term view, and so are directionless. They have to be crudely populist if the wish to be re-elected.
So they will always choose popular rather than wise.
Plato also thought it was very easy for democratic politicians to pretend to be wise and independently-minded whilst actually being blatantly populist. They are like fake animal trainers who pretend to give commands to a wild and untrained beast
Introducing Plato: A Graphic Guide
John Stuart Mill (1806-73) argued,perhaps optimistically, that if individuals are allowed to argue and discuss politics, they automatically become better informed and wiser. The wisest and most practical will survive the debating process, and the pernicious ideas will wither away
Those who are able to see beyond the shadows and lies of their culture will never be understood, let alone believed by the masses.

Boundary setting works really well when you're in a position of power.

Example: Person A abuses the emotional attachment of person B in order to influence their actions under the threat of consequence

Lay boundary well in advance. When they ignore their boundary, because that's what they are going to do, keep boundary firm but never blame them for problem. “I told you so”: they will escalate. You make them feel worse about themselves.

The more narcissists escalate, the more they will try to manipulate you. Don't blame them. Instead cite in some way your own shortcoming. Absolve them of blame. “You're struggling, I cannot focus my mind right now, I'm not able to help you right now”.
Give them second option. Narcissist want their need to be met. Do it tomorrow, not right now. If you are in unfavorable power dynamic you can't draw a line in sand that they're going to respect. Give option that is better for you.

Give them an alternative that is easier for you. That's the boundary you have to hold as best as you can. If you are in unfavorable Power Dynamic situation they will bludgeon you. Blaming them will escalate and they will crush you.

Never apologize, contentious – that is one of those toxins we can't always see. You have to look deeper, it's under the surface. When your soul is healthy you're loving and kind, you see the best in others, peacemaker, you let them be right.

So many things that I'm afraid of (afraid of)
But right now I ain't scared of nothin'
('Cause all I know is)
(All I know is, all I, all I)
'Cause all I know it's 10:35
And I can feel your arms around me

Man just wants to forget the bad stuff and believe in the made-up good stuff. It's easier that way.

If men don't trust each other, this earth might as well be hell. I don't want this place to be hell.
- Shouting doesn't help. In the end, you cannot understand the things men do.

I don't have time to mind everyone's feelings. If you're not selfish, you can't survive. Everyone is selfish and dishonest. Making excuses. The bandit, the woman, the man and you! And you aren't?

Never let your mind tell you I don't know. That's BS. Never say I can't afford it. Brain will go, ok. If you change it to "how?" – now you start thinking. When you start identifying what you are afraid: stay in retrospection.

In healthy dynamic where you were supported, this concern what other people think is very small, localized to people who really matter to you. When that family home is unsafe, no shelter to be ourselves then everything becomes unsafe.

In all healthy relationships, there is you, other person and other element: fantasy. We both enter into this third element. Remind yourself it is not about them, it is about this third element that we created.

Word "trigger" I think it is a little too simple for what happens to survivors of narcissistic abuse. When your strings get plucked give yourself a minute to recover. Take a break, give yourself a breather, let the vibrating stop.

With betrayal trauma it can get a lot complicated. Because what may seem like ordinary experiences - to others can be moments that are very unsettling. Relationship trauma are not clear cut, there may be judgement when you have been plucked in reaction.

Narcissists are masters of suppression. These individuals with their desire to stay in superior position, they constantly try to figure out what can I reveal to get me in a good place, what I need to refrain from talking about to maintain mèritum .

In their need to ideal they'll hold down certain elements who they are. Inadvertently they wind up to train you to be guarded and cautious and careful in a way that you engage. So you wind up suppressing your emotions in reverse.

People that are sick, they're not themselves. They say things they don't mean, they act in ways they wouldn't ordinarily act but if you ever talk to me like that again - I'll punch your heart out.
