  • narcissists want you to be the one that reaches out to them because when/if you do, they think everything they have done to you is ok. Not all narcissists or toxic people do this but the ones that do want to avoid accountability and blame you for whatever you went through.

    Welcome my channel! If this is your first time seeing my face or hearing my voice, my name is Lee and I am a self aware narcissist. I have narcissistic personality disorder ( NPD ) and I've been in therapy for my personality disorder since 2017 and it has definitely changed my life because without it, I would have lost everything.
    The point of these videos is to help bring awareness from the other side of the narcissistic *buse spectrum. All my videos give perspective on why many narcissists do what they do and the possible different reasons behind them. The victims and survivors get validation and the Narcissists (those that are willing) get to see that you can get help and that you are not alone.

When I didn’t act the way he wanted me to, he held my car hostage. He got his boss to attempt to declare my car abandoned, and said I owed them $2500, all because I didn’t want to play his games. So, I sued him and his boss. I had text messages where he said he was going to fix the car for free. He ended calling me sounding like he was about to cry because his boss threaten to fire him because of the lawsuit. I actually got him on tape because, you know, narcs love to lie. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I kept thinking , ‘If you wanna know how I’m doing, ask me, don’t creep.’ But I’ve dated guys like this before they just wanna know they’re still on your mind / check and see if you moved on so they poke you. If you reach out it validates their fragile ego and then they ignore you again . Love your videos. Thanks for the honesty .

Although he was the one who had blocked me in the past, he was always lurking in certain places and eventually started to shame himself publicly in his online profiles. That's when I reached out because my empathy got the better of me. I felt sorry for him and wanted to clear things up. Big mistake, y'all.

    My ex narcissist fiancé stole from me when he moved out to get me to call him to ask for my stuff back. I never did. When his scheme didn’t work, he called me 14 times…idk why because I didn’t answer. The best strategy when it comes to narcissists is to ignore them at all costs. If people take their side, let them go. If someone else brings their name up, stop talking to them. Never engage. You are at war. Win at all costs. Get your peace of mind back. Battle on.

And all he had to do was unblock me, and then start harassing me again. Make sure you block first!

    I can totally relate to this. My nex doesn't reach out to me directly - instead, he hacked my phone and deleted some photos from our previous text thread, he got into my Google email and deleted some emails, he broke into my house and ripped some pages out of my journals. I can only think that all this was out of anger and hoping to have a response from me. I have not responded to this in any way other than to get a new phone, change passwords and change my locks/install cameras in my home. Nothing back to him at all. And I don't plan to!

Then she also had a storage unit under my name, she moved her stuff without telling me to cancel the unit, the storage place had to call me to ask if I moved out. Which was a bait for me to call my mother to ask if they're done with the unit. I didn't ask I just told the storage place to go ahead and cancel it. I'm not falling for any of this crapola.

If a valuable supply source becomes stronger and escapes they are the ones who lose in the battle between their own false self and true self. In effect they are playing it safe with this move. Stay in darkness versus let any light in through the cracks. I guess for most of them - its next candidate please ! The Iron Rule of dealing with narcissists - you know, you go. It's arrogance to think you can change them. Be humble, admit defeat early, lesson learned and move on.

      That is one of the best things you can do for yourself. I did this as I knew that my mental wellbeing was on the verge of taking a negative turn. I specifically chose a therapist that understood NPD mentality - essential. So so thankful that I did. Wishing you the best ✨

    I know he's a narc and that's why I'm not doing it, if you're truly interested in a woman, you will do whatever it takes to show her that you care and put forth some effort in getting to know more about her. 🤷🏾‍♀️

      My narc client who is also schizophrenic,told me he calls in the demons.he was very hard to deal with. He drained me and I had to take 3 days to recover from an hour with him. I can sense him psychically blocked ng things I want in my life.geez this channel and some others are soooo helpful.

      I’m so sorry you had to go through that, love how you handled it though, WISDOM!
      I had a variety of old things in storage with a close “trusted” family member. Time after time was never ever given access to them again. I don’t have a clue what has happened to them, so this felt shady & like betrayal. Rather than make a stink about it or beg, I documented the situation and made sure others were aware what had happened. In my mind - those things were taken, or tampered with, who knows. God knows! I release it & appreciate seeing others true colors.

    My narc went out of his way to get my address. I set strong boundaries with this person years ago, mostly no contact, only visiting for 5 minutes when they were in the hospital. When I told them they were not allowed to my house, they replied, "Oh no! I'm not coming to you. You're going to come to me like you're supposed to because I haven't done anything wrong." Getting my address was another way to gain access. My boundaries are stronger now than before! You don't just have to protect yourself, but the people around you too.

    This is so crazy, because after he did so much to me and I decided to leave. I spoke to him again, and he said he sat and thought about all the things that I claim he did and realized that it had to be me just tryna make up stuff about him to hide the fact that I really left him to deal with other guys. There’s no other explanation. Yes it is!! Your abuse is the explanation lol

I just keep sticking to my no contact rule! I've already accepted, & made peace with the fact that they're never going to change. The less I deal with them, the happier I am!

  • @BlueSky-d7y

    I cut of all contact with the narc and I mean all contact. Almost two years after I divorced him I got this strange text from a hospice. Figuring it was him I ignored it, then the person at the hospice left a voice mail on my phone and I blocked the number. I am guessing his dad was in hospice and he gave them my phone number in an attempt to force me to reach out to him. Crazy behavior but not so crazy after watching this video 😂 that is what they do. I want nothing to do with that man, we were only married a short time and have no kids (Thank you Jesus) He acted like a nine year old during the divorce but I stood my ground. One of the best decisions I have ever made. When I think about that weird season in my life and how I overcame it, I smile, grateful that I was able to move on with my life without the fool. 🤣 I had decided to get off that bloody roller coaster 😂
