for a narcissist to change Okay.

00:01:23.272 --> 00:01:32.352

00:01:32.352 --> 00:01:33.503
it's my child?

boss, mailman, whoever, this goes on and on, friend.

00:01:50.977 --> 00:02:00.638
Narcissistic Personality Disorder, or NPD, is a mental condition characterized by an inflated sense of self importance.

00:02:01.153 --> 00:02:09.396
A deep need for excessive attention and admiration a lack of empathy for others Lots of troubled relationships, too.

00:02:09.407 --> 00:02:17.659
Yeah, they're preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or the ideal love.

00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:19.810
They never feel filled.

00:02:20.169 --> 00:02:25.157
They believe that they're special and unique and everyone should want to be around them.

00:02:25.157 --> 00:02:29.127
And they require, excessive attention and admiration.

00:02:29.137 --> 00:02:31.106
They want to be at the center of anything.

00:02:31.326 --> 00:02:33.537
And when they aren't, they get angry.

00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:36.840
So this term comes from the Greek myth of Narcissus.

00:02:37.229 --> 00:02:37.900
I can't say that.

00:02:38.389 --> 00:02:41.659
A young man who fell in love with his own reflection.

00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:44.539
So if that doesn't tell you, they just love themselves.

00:02:44.610 --> 00:02:44.909
Yeah.

00:02:45.104 --> 00:02:45.995
I don't know what does.

00:02:46.127 --> 00:03:14.181
if you're married or in a relationship with somebody who is a narcissist, you're going to feel constantly belittled, manipulated, and really emotionally drained because their need to control you and their need for admiration, it creates this environment where you feel like your own needs are neglected, and you're going to be putting Everybody else in this person first because you do not feel worthy anymore after being with somebody or around somebody who is a narcissist.

00:03:14.491 --> 00:03:15.762
So let's talk about the

00:03:15.762 --> 00:03:22.215
signs that your spouse, partner, boyfriend, husband, girlfriend might be a narcissist.

00:03:22.372 --> 00:03:23.562
What are some common traits?

00:03:23.641 --> 00:03:25.662
The first one is grandiosity.

00:03:25.662 --> 00:03:26.262
Did I say that right?

00:03:26.262 --> 00:03:26.861
Grandiosity?

00:03:27.021 --> 00:03:27.602
Grandiosity?

00:03:28.192 --> 00:03:28.491
I always say it.

00:03:28.491 --> 00:03:29.352
Say it however you want.

00:03:29.401 --> 00:03:30.562
Yeah, it's like potato patata.

00:03:30.901 --> 00:03:34.322
It's really just this exaggerated sense of self importance.

00:03:34.342 --> 00:03:36.382
They're so important.

00:03:36.842 --> 00:03:43.961
They have a lack of empathy, the inability to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others.

00:03:44.032 --> 00:03:44.481
Mm hmm.

00:03:44.512 --> 00:03:46.491
And then there's the need for admiration.

00:03:46.792 --> 00:03:51.921
Which is this constant and constant need for praise and validation.

00:03:51.921 --> 00:03:54.081
And tell me how amazing I am.

00:03:54.081 --> 00:03:56.412
And Oh, look how awesome this is.

00:03:56.662 --> 00:03:57.542
Entitlement.

00:03:57.551 --> 00:03:58.752
They're very entitled.

00:03:58.762 --> 00:04:01.102
They believe that they deserve special treatment.

00:04:01.412 --> 00:04:14.055
They believe that everybody should follow them, that they should have, Obedience over everybody, that you should hang on their every word and do everything they say they have very manipulative behavior and they use others to achieve their goals.

00:04:14.094 --> 00:04:16.774
They don't care about how they're going to get to the top.

00:04:16.814 --> 00:04:18.204
They just want to get to the top.

00:04:18.264 --> 00:04:18.745
Mm hmm.

00:04:18.915 --> 00:04:27.089
When you can understand these traits you have to first to be able to recognize them and the impact that they're having on your mental health.

00:04:27.100 --> 00:04:35.759
Because living with somebody who is a narcissist, it leads to anxiety and depression, low self esteem, a sense of isolation.

00:04:36.069 --> 00:04:37.939
It's really a form of abuse.

00:04:38.110 --> 00:04:40.500
The way that you're treated, it is abusive.

00:04:40.776 --> 00:04:47.247
it is really crucial to acknowledge how it all affects you and really seek ways to protect your mental health.

00:04:47.406 --> 00:05:08.548
When you live with a narcissist, it can feel like you're walking on eggshells at all time, because if you make a wrong move, They are going to dismiss you and we learn that we feel like we need to admire them and they need to be the center of our universe all the time and if not, they're not going to love us anymore.

00:05:08.598 --> 00:05:19.482
And they typically do things called love bombing at the beginning, like they make you feel like you're the most important person in their world and then you fall for it and then they flip the script and they're like, wait, wait, no.

00:05:19.867 --> 00:05:23.997
how can we cope with a narcissistic?

00:05:24.016 --> 00:05:24.476
partner.

00:05:24.476 --> 00:05:26.317
Let's talk about some strategies for that.

00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:28.867
As always, set your boundaries.

00:05:29.127 --> 00:05:30.526
Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries.

00:05:30.557 --> 00:05:31.007
Bitch.

00:05:31.307 --> 00:05:31.396
Yes.

00:05:31.663 --> 00:05:36.413
when you set boundaries with people, you are telling them how you want to be treated.

00:05:36.516 --> 00:05:43.877
First, clearly define what behavior is acceptable and what isn't, and then stick to these consistently.

00:05:44.137 --> 00:05:49.086
Write it down, make a note, text it to yourself, and read it every day if you have a hard time sticking with it.

00:05:49.242 --> 00:05:56.822
If you go through the grocery store aisle and you buy your kid a candy bar one time, they're going to ask for a candy bar for the remainder of your life.

00:05:57.391 --> 00:05:59.851
You just need to do it once because you gave in once.

00:06:00.362 --> 00:06:04.252
So stick to your boundaries and make them hard boundaries and figure out what that is.

00:06:04.252 --> 00:06:08.762
And if you don't understand boundaries, go back and listen to our boundary episode.

00:06:08.997 --> 00:06:12.338
Another tool is to limit emotional reactions.

00:06:12.545 --> 00:06:17.872
Narcissists often provoke you on purpose to get an emotional response.

00:06:17.995 --> 00:06:22.055
They like things big and crazy, and they feel like it's bringing attention.

00:06:22.221 --> 00:06:29.932
they've often learned that their behavior, when negative, gets them attention, so then they do that in a relationship.

00:06:29.932 --> 00:06:45.447
So if you stay calm and composed, not that you're not supposed to not feel your feelings, but in this moment, if you don't feel their fire, That empowers you and helps you maintain control over yourself and the situation.

00:06:45.507 --> 00:06:49.677
Because if you don't, they're gonna turn around on you and say that you are the crazy one.

00:06:49.677 --> 00:06:50.877
They're gonna gaslight you.

00:06:50.877 --> 00:06:53.067
They're gonna say that this is all your fault.

00:06:53.067 --> 00:06:57.713
You are the one that's blown up or crazy or crying and it's manipulation right there.

00:06:58.043 --> 00:07:05.322
If you're having a hard time with any of these maintaining controls or maintaining your boundaries, as always, seek support.

00:07:05.442 --> 00:07:20.262
Go to your friend, go to your therapist, go to family, find someone who can help provide that external support and validation and really give you, I want to say practical advice, but help you come up with a solution

00:07:20.449 --> 00:07:21.930
Focus on yourself.

00:07:21.930 --> 00:07:23.579
Spend time with yourself.

00:07:23.620 --> 00:07:24.860
Work on self care.

00:07:24.889 --> 00:07:34.430
When you engage in activities or hobbies or taking time for things that you love, you are nurturing your mental and physical well being.

00:07:34.569 --> 00:07:38.091
when your glass is full, You are more resilient.

00:07:38.291 --> 00:07:52.997
So when you're going through something like this and you're trying to get out of a situation or you're dealing with a narcissist like at work or at school, when you are full of care for yourself and your self worth, it makes it easier to navigate these hard things.

00:07:53.627 --> 00:07:56.267
And as we always say, educate yourself.

00:07:56.362 --> 00:07:56.692
Yes.

00:07:56.742 --> 00:07:57.812
Educate yourself.

00:07:57.903 --> 00:07:59.413
Learn more about it.

00:07:59.463 --> 00:08:02.353
Learn more about how you respond to it.

00:08:02.572 --> 00:08:05.062
What these behaviors and the dynamics are.

00:08:05.343 --> 00:08:07.963
Always consider professional help.

00:08:08.023 --> 00:08:13.202
Sometimes when you're dealing with a narcissist, your friends may not be able to help walk you through this.

00:08:13.497 --> 00:08:17.887
Find somebody who specializes in this kind of behavior.

00:08:17.927 --> 00:08:18.168
Yeah.

00:08:18.218 --> 00:08:24.817
Make sure they have a specialty in narcissistic personality disorder so they know how to help you best.

00:08:24.877 --> 00:08:25.038
Mm

00:08:25.088 --> 00:08:25.298
hmm.

00:08:25.608 --> 00:08:33.373
As always, it's important for us to normalize this conversation, especially about being in a relationship with somebody who isn't.

00:08:33.373 --> 00:08:42.309
is a narcissist or has narcissistic personality traits because so many women feel so ashamed and alone in their experiences.

00:08:42.547 --> 00:08:49.615
when you create a supportive community, when you can discuss these things openly, you don't feel alone.

00:08:49.615 --> 00:08:55.581
Let's walk through again how you can set boundaries specifically with a narcissist.

00:08:55.754 --> 00:09:11.312
Again, establish those clear boundaries, write them down, tell them to yourself, communicate them with your partner, communicate assertively, effectively, calmly, prioritize your self care, and these will help you set your boundaries with a narcissist.

00:09:11.792 --> 00:09:12.162
Okay.

00:09:12.162 --> 00:09:19.278
So Randy, is it actually possible though, to have a healthy relationship with a husband or a spouse or partner that is a narcissist.

00:09:19.371 --> 00:09:33.692
It's very challenging and While you can establish boundaries that can start towards that, really seeking therapy for both individuals and fostering that open communication can really improve the relationship dynamics.

00:09:33.712 --> 00:09:40.293
If it's somebody that is in your life, or that you want to continue being in your life, You need to work on healing the relationship.

00:09:40.663 --> 00:09:45.712
So just how can I cope with the emotional manipulation that happens from a narcissist?

00:09:46.059 --> 00:09:47.950
You'll need to practice self awareness.

00:09:48.019 --> 00:10:12.331
Be aware of when you are being manipulated because that's the first part when you can acknowledge that, If you need to go to a support group or go to your therapist When you can acknowledge that manipulation, you can then prioritize your own emotional well being to navigate around the manipulation and to call, I'm going to say it, call out the bullshit in a way that's going to be effective.

00:10:12.488 --> 00:10:17.008
So Jess, do you think it's possible for a narcissist to change their behavior?

00:10:17.302 --> 00:10:20.582
I want to be like, no, I don't think so, but I don't think that's true.

00:10:20.602 --> 00:10:26.393
I think people can, I think the only way they really can is if they want to.

00:10:26.613 --> 00:10:28.673
People don't change unless they want to.

00:10:28.876 --> 00:10:33.336
Some people don't realize that they have these traits or that they are narcissists.

00:10:33.537 --> 00:10:36.647
Some people don't care because it's all about them.

00:10:36.746 --> 00:10:40.230
I don't know if they really can, unless they want to.

00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:42.590
I think that's true with anything, in our lives.

00:10:42.889 --> 00:10:48.429
So how, again, do we communicate effectively, especially with somebody who is a narcissist?

00:10:49.663 --> 00:11:00.745
Using very clear and assertive communication that respects your boundaries, Avoid engaging in these power struggles because that again is the manipulation.

00:11:01.034 --> 00:11:02.184
Don't lose your shit.

00:11:02.245 --> 00:11:09.304
don't get into these arguments because then it becomes very much, he said, she said, she said, she said, whatever, and they feed off of that, right?

00:11:09.335 --> 00:11:12.764
And then if you want to maintain this relationship.

00:11:12.942 --> 00:11:14.922
Go to couples therapy if it's a partner.

00:11:15.182 --> 00:11:18.751
Work with somebody to teach you how to get out of these cycles.

00:11:18.798 --> 00:11:23.097
to get out of the cycles, it's through emotionally focused couples therapy.

00:11:23.388 --> 00:11:27.398
There is a specific therapy for this to stop these cycles.

00:11:27.841 --> 00:11:33.532
Randi, let's What are some of the red flags to watch out for when you're in a relationship with somebody who is narcissistic?

00:11:33.782 --> 00:11:39.831
Patterns of manipulation, like Jessica was talking about, like see when these things are happening, become more self aware of them.

00:11:39.884 --> 00:11:45.419
Notice if there's a lack of empathy, that there is really no care or compassion for you when you are feeling this way.

00:11:45.419 --> 00:11:49.767
feeling things or they're doing things in your relationship that make you uncomfortable.

00:11:50.006 --> 00:11:51.267
Watch for gaslighting.

00:11:51.277 --> 00:11:53.777
We talk about that in a previous episode.

00:11:53.777 --> 00:12:02.590
If you want to dip your toes into understanding more about gaslighting notice if they need the constant need for validation, but then they don't validate you at all.

00:12:02.830 --> 00:12:07.250
These are all major red flags in a relationship with a narcissistic partner.

00:12:07.442 --> 00:12:12.863
And just where can you find additional support and resources for dealing with a narcissist?

00:12:13.149 --> 00:12:13.389
It

00:12:13.389 --> 00:12:18.919
is way more common than we realize to be in a relationship with somebody who is a narcissist.

00:12:19.086 --> 00:12:20.147
Sorry, I'm going to pause real quick.

00:12:20.259 --> 00:12:26.879
somebody may exhibit traits of narcissists too, but they might not be diagnosable.

00:12:27.019 --> 00:12:29.759
We use the term very loosely in social media.

00:12:29.899 --> 00:12:33.923
So it's good to understand that they need to have all.

00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:40.620
six traits to be diagnosable, but that doesn't mean you're still not dealing with an aspect of this.

00:12:40.700 --> 00:12:41.350
Exactly.

00:12:41.490 --> 00:12:47.924
There can be narcissistic traits, there can actually be the personality disorder and it varies a lot.

00:12:48.105 --> 00:12:51.845
It's all based upon these little rules that we have to go through in this book.

00:12:52.225 --> 00:12:56.215
But either way find a therapist who specializes in this.

00:12:56.365 --> 00:12:59.894
Go join your online communities to seek support.

00:13:00.011 --> 00:13:01.432
Research and read.

00:13:01.451 --> 00:13:11.662
I have nothing against TikTok or Instagram and learning from them because so many people are sharing, but also look for some sources that are backed up.

00:13:11.792 --> 00:13:12.042
Yeah.

00:13:12.282 --> 00:13:13.902
Because those are like a starting point.

00:13:13.902 --> 00:13:13.981
Exactly.

00:13:13.991 --> 00:13:15.751
They're like the tip of the iceberg.

00:13:15.761 --> 00:13:15.841
Yes.

00:13:15.871 --> 00:13:16.542
On the.

00:13:16.682 --> 00:13:21.052
depth that you should really do and the research you should find on this subject.

00:13:21.062 --> 00:13:23.131
That's why we talk about this on our podcast.

00:13:23.162 --> 00:13:28.644
We want to bring up awareness, but we can't spend, 25 hours talking about just one thing.

00:13:28.654 --> 00:13:37.254
It's a starting point to give you a brief bullet point and I back it up with our research on our website too, because I do a lot of more in depth articles on there.

00:13:37.533 --> 00:13:40.592
a lot of times people are like, Oh, I didn't know that.

00:13:40.592 --> 00:13:42.222
Actually I'm going to sidetrack for a second.

00:13:42.283 --> 00:13:47.352
I posted a real last night about ADHD, And this real, it wasn't one that I did.

00:13:47.352 --> 00:13:50.643
I just, reposted it and it talked about a social battery.

00:13:50.783 --> 00:13:55.773
Well, I have a friend who is ADHD and she's 10 years older than me.

00:13:55.773 --> 00:13:59.326
And she said, I never knew about a social battery.

00:13:59.577 --> 00:14:08.134
sometimes just the knowledge of this, these are starting points to help you start to understand and to do more research with what feels congruent to you.

00:14:08.544 --> 00:14:11.065
So really, we want you to embrace.

00:14:11.274 --> 00:14:16.225
And show support for yourself and for other people who are dealing with this.

00:14:16.654 --> 00:14:21.048
we really need to practice empathy and understanding.

00:14:21.357 --> 00:14:26.508
Even if we are not in this situation, we might need to know somebody else that's going through it.

00:14:26.827 --> 00:14:30.927
And so it helps if you're aware about it and then encourage discussions.

00:14:30.947 --> 00:14:31.418
Maybe you see.

00:14:31.607 --> 00:14:41.327
See this in somebody you know, or a friend or a coworker, and you can still offer support and validate how they're feeling and their experiences.

00:14:41.557 --> 00:14:46.773
always remember that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

00:14:46.982 --> 00:14:50.403
And honestly, if you see some of these signs in yourself.

00:14:50.702 --> 00:14:58.476
It's okay to check with somebody and be like, do you think I am, and that somebody needs to be a professional, but to check with them and say, this is what I do.

00:14:58.567 --> 00:15:00.576
Is this this behavior?

00:15:00.797 --> 00:15:04.886
And if so, how can I change this or how can I work through this?

00:15:05.126 --> 00:15:09.876
it's not just about seeing it in other people, but starting to recognize some of what you do as well.

00:15:10.226 --> 00:15:16.236
So just remember that you are not alone and there is so much help available for you.

00:15:16.537 --> 00:15:21.287
We hope our discussion on dealing with narcissists has been informative and empowering.
