    "They put their personal pleasure above the safety and well-being of others." There simply are no words to describe the utter destruction and devastation caused by these individuals while they go about their business as if it's another day. Meanwhile we're sifting through the physical and emotional wreckage to see what can be salvaged, at the same time, concerned for our health, safety, financial future, living arrangements, children, grandchildren, pets, etc. I've seen abandonment, abuse and neglect of people, animals and property. I've seen animals and people put in life or death situations so that a narcissist can have what they're entitled. These individuals are dangerous and must be recognized. The problem is that this behavior is so unthinkable to the average person that we can't or don't see it.

      My mother and brother are narcissistic. My mother was born in 1916. My brother was born 15 months after I was born and now we’re in our ninth decade. Just this last nine months has given me insight into why I married a supreme narcissist the first time and finally have stopped suffering the indignities. I am able to take care of my brother in a helpful manner without involving myself and my ego (or lack of it) at all. In his old age he has lost it all and he doesn’t even understand it. Isn’t it funny that our families tried so hard to destroy us and now we’re getting better? It’s not funny it’s wonderful that we can recover all very own selves in our older age.

    I had a horrible childhood because my mother was a malignant narcissist. When I was around her, I had to walk on eggshells. I never knew what would set her off. Looking back I realized that I was always in the flight or fight mode. My house was never peaceful because her and my dad was always arguing about anything and everything. I hated to sit at the table to eat supper with them because they would always talk about how bad of a day they had at work. They were never interested in how my day at school went. In their eyes, I could never do anything right. My dad was not a narcissist, but he did have an anger problem. I would get in trouble over the stupidest things like when I had to peel fresh potatoes out of the garden with a paring knife, I was yelled at because I was wasting to much potato on the peel. I had to wash dishes everyday and if I didn't clean a fork or spoon good enough, I would get yelled at and told to rewash it. When I got home from school, housecleaning came first before homework. The only peace I got was when I went to visit my sweet grandmother, my older sister and get to sleep over at my best friends house. I would never want to relive my childhood again.

Oh, did you get a new this and that?" and just have to give their unwanted opinion.

She was ecstatic about my eye and facial injuries because I was always considered the beautiful one in the family. Then when I went to an emergency room I was given a shot that caused seizures. She stood right over my bed and mocked my face as it and my entire body went into spasms. I finally, decades later, realized how envious she always was and that she’s a narcissist just like the rest of the family and everyone I knew.

I traded my car in back in 2016 and got a Cadillac and my Ex first accused me with rage of flirting with the guy at the dealership because he didn’t want to go with me to go get the car in the first place🙄🙄!! Then when I came back home with my new car, he all of a sudden said that he deserves him a new car because he works hard!! Mind you that He never kept a consistent job driving trucks but I guess he was going to get that car anyways. One month later, he got him a BMW that he had trouble keeping up the payments 😬😬😬!! At first, I stepped in to help him pay the insurance on the car 🙄🙄🙄!!
    Malignant Narcissist are “Very Evil”, “Very Paranoid”, “Very Envious”, Sexual Predators, Full of Rage, Stockers and “Very Delusional Individuals”!! Bipolar Too!!
    They will Spit on you, try to undermine you, isolate you from all your family and friends, hurt you physically and emotionally, hold grudges, user’s, serial cheaters, pathological liars, very envious of other people always say that they deserve things that they don’t, never pay child support, lazy as hell, will steal from you, will manipulate you, gaslight you, triangulate you with other people, ruin any and every event and holiday, and put you in very bad and very dangerous situations!! Also lie about and try to downplay there childhood and family when entering any relationship or friendships. Malignant Narcissist in my opinion are the ones who always say that they have “Problems” with Mommy🙄🙄🙄!! Some of them wet the bed in childhood to there teen years too!!

I know 3 individuals who have all Malignant Narcissistic traits and 2 of them wet the bed until they were 13 and 14 years old. Neither one of them were molested nor have diabetes to my knowledge. Bed wetting up to your teenage years is a sign of behavioral disorders. The bed wetting stops around 13-16 years of age. If bed wetting continues pass that time frame on up into adulthood then yes I think it would probably be something else like diabetes or something of that nature.

    This describes my ex husband to a tee! Exactly! And I lived like this for 15 years with him! I left him 1 & 1/2 years ago and I am still hurting and weaning myself! I go to church meetings and therapy just to continue to gain back my self worth! It’s so psychologically abusive and controlling that you lose ALL of your self worth! I continue to pray for recovery and peace! I am working HARD to get over, past and through this marriage and divorce.
    If you think you may be involved with someone that is a narcissist, run away! Do not allow yourself to get involved with this person! They are tricky! They are manipulative and controlling! You will NEVER change them or fix them! You will be abused in every way possible and it will take years to get over the trauma of being involved with a man like this! Walk away! It took me years and years to finally cut ties. We have a son so I will forever be tied to this person but I am free and I am better off and growing and recovering by the grace of God and my family and friends who all saw what I wouldn’t see for so long!

    I learned years ago never to share a confidence or an insecurity with my dear ole mother. Because the moment she ever got upset with me, she would throw what I told her in my face, and would then deny that she ever had. She is a TOTAL CHRISTIAN OF CONVENIENCE who uses the Bible as a weapon (or tries), can always justify her shortcomings while highlighting mine and others'. I have disengaged since eight months ago, and I've never enjoyed so much peace in my entire life.

    I've dealt with this personality in a much other sister, friends, bosses, and a horrible ex husband.
    As time went by, I learned to stop being a people pleaser, a personality flaw I had stemming from early childhood prolonged abuse. I was afraid of displeasing anyone, afraid of anger. I had actually attracted these narcissists by always being too nice, never having personal boundaries.
    Since I learned to stop the people pleasing, narcissists are not attracted to me. I can recognize what they are, but they leave me alone. It's fabulous.

      Yes indeed, talking about holding a grudge for a long time. Try being punished by one of them for 28 years and not a sign of my Mom letting it go . And I did nothing to or against her at all and never have and never will. It's beyond me, how so much spitefulness can fit into one person. I just figured my mom was meaner than all my friends mom's . I said that in front of one of my friends about a month or two ago and he hollered, "She is, Tex !" I have just recently found out about narcissists. The first video I ever saw on narcissists was one about "gas lighting" , and finally I knew, there was a lot more to it than just plain meaness. I always felt that there was. I thought to myself, dang, these folks know my mom ! Then I watched more and more vids on narcissist and EVERY single one is spot on so far. She's done exactly as they've described, in Spade's to me, more times than I can count. But still I love her.and I have a very strong feeling that the love is not mutual. Every day. And that ain't easy on my heart, mind or Spirit. And it feels like she wants me to know that, that is the way she wants for me to hurt. Nope, it ain't easy a'tall.

    Those times when a couple of my friends that have narcissistic traits have tried to control me I did what I wanted, just without telling them. They had to learn that noone controls me - they never got angry and threw a fit, but everytime they show that they were disappointed. Not in words, but in their tone.
    I have a high self respect and they know - sometimes I cut them off when they step over the boundaries I set before them; they often do it on purpose. I just go underground, no contact at all - and I don't even tell them upfront that I will cut them off - I just do it. It has worked until now.
