  • Did you know there are many types of narcissism? Because we are so used to the glaringly obvious displays of overt narcissists, who are often attention-seeking, loud, and in-your-face, it’s easy to overlook other types of narcissists, particularly the “kind” or the covert narcissist. To avoid being fooled by their outwardly kind nature, today’s video will be focused on what ‘kind’ narcissism is and what to do when you interact with someone who is a ‘kind’ narcissist.

      No. There are in fact some egoistical of selfish people but they dont necessary want your downfall or see you sad or just dont want to open more. Covert narcissist are extremely attachant with you in the beginning, with extreme kindness, laugh, understanding, good behaviors, like someone you can put all your trust, share good moments,... Its like a person you’re never met, a « soulmate », a loving energy that brings you warmness, they stay and want to be with you every single day. They cant stand being alone and also, they want you to only be attached to them, to prioritize them. And bam! Once you are attached, they start slowly showing their shady behaviors, stings your self esteem by let you believe their negative opinion (subtly recorded in your mind) of you, by mocking you, belittling, being cruel and sadistic like nothing happened. Finally they abandon you during your worst days. They are so impressed and irritated and the same time by your kindness, your sweetness so they want to completely destroys you on the inside ! Its the difference. They know that they mentally abuse you and controls you by your insecurities/complex and will make them much bigger than they really are. Anyway, they always cause you troubles. They are evil inside. Some people think its ok but no. They want you to be stuffed with them and never fly with your own wings! They want you to forget who you are, and enter in their cage, supporting their broken negative self forever! And blame your self that is Your fault that he or she acts like a psychopath.

      She had CPS/DCF called on her several times a year, by my dad, paternal grandma, school counsellors and the school nurses and family of school friends pf mine. Nothinv ever came of any of it.
      She had a friend at the local office who gave ger a heads up whenever she was reported and when an agent was heading to her house.

    Have you ever noticed that depression and anxiety are often spoke about in 2nd person whereas more stigmatized disorder are almost always described in 3rd person? "If you have depression, you might experience these things" vs "if they are a narcissist, they might do these things". People with mental health problems that are more heavily stigmatized are more often treated as if they have no internal life and are incapable of complex thoughts and motivations.

      @@Harry-et7dc This is not true. It is very common for ppl with NPD to recognize that they're having problems in their relationships, difficulty connecting with people, and even have narcissistic tendencies. Admitting to a highly stigmatized disorder is difficult for anyone and it's probably harder for people with a very fragile self concept. Having resources actually directed toward people with NPD would probably go a long way towards destigmatization and healing.

    I will speak from experience. This gets a bit iffy with self deception, but also in knowing what the truth is. Because it’s easier to express yourself in a narcissistic way it may be tempting to say this is the truth (you may go from having some selfish impulses or tendencies to rationalizing it as only caring about yourself), you may also notice instances where you feel a lack of fulfillment; the feeling of being narcissistic yet still having it leave a bitter or nonexistent sense of fulfillment/satisfaction may indicate that there are some views, judgements, or perspectives that you internalize which are incompatible and reroute your attention to self serving causes. If you want elaboration lmk and I can reply with a personal example
    Everyone is a bit of a narcissist yes, because of selfishness and how you can determine it, some people are more wired to only think about themselves and never introspect or see how they may change. Some people only internalize self serving perspectives and make up for it by acting kindly and strategically. In my experience it lead to some sort of identity crisis XDD
    It is also hard to determine or develop as a person away from narcissistic tendencies when you feel everything isn’t sincere

      @@strawberrymilk1563 *Summary:* said things I couldn’t have meant because it felt like it would require no effort, stopped caring, thought I was simply narcissistic, looked deeper and realized it’s because I felt things required less patience and endurance, like life was one big loading screen; changed my perspective and helped me follow through with the challenge of following through.
      *Detailed:*
      It’s easier for me to shut down and ghost someone rather than take responsibility for my words and promises. This lead to a lot of friendships where at the time it felt I would be there for them on my end, but over time it would be clear I had no idea what those words really meant. As soon as it got overwhelming I’d leave, I felt bad but my self defense mechanism of apathy would take over.
      This had me at the conclusion that I was narcissistic and self centered. Because I couldn’t bring myself to actually act when it involved anything but what I wanted in the moment. I felt in my emotions that I wanted to help others, but I’d look too deep into it and justify it like: “oh I just feel better when I comfort someone” and “everything can be traced to a selfish reason that involves survival.”
      In the first place I never had to look at it that way, I could settle at the fact I wanna help people but I have a false expectation of how the process will go, which lead to a cynical philosophy which is a flaw if my goal is to treat others better. My conclusion was the following:
      I had the deceptive belief that these things would take no effort internally because I grew up on videos games, where all you had to do was make decisions from a detached perspective without going through any human emotions or sensations or conflicting desires. As soon as I realized the grit I’d need to follow through on my words and try to think in the present moment, I operated a lot better with other people and in carrying myself as a person. There are still many unrealistic expectations which mess up my ability to act as I actually am, and that’s what I mean by “judgements, or perspectives that you internalize which are incompatible and reroute your attention to self serving causes”

      Remind me of an old friend I had. He could be very, very cynical. I think it's important to remember that yes, people need to survive, and yes, they want a degree of success in their lives. But there's enough of that to go around. People's needs aren't exactly endless pits of despair. They can be trying to make a plan for themselves while also needing love, and wanting it for others, and caring about others. Those things aren't mutually exclusive. There's a lot of times when we can work together and help each other a long the way. That in itself is a very human need.

      I knew a “kind” narcissist. A very charming and polite young man. Only this was just a mask to protect his image. He wanted to be liked by everyone. He would say and do exactly what he thought you wanted to see, but his behaviour changed completely the moment you weren’t beneficial to him anymore. Sometimes he would make me upset or even cry just for fun and laugh in my face about it. I did a lot of research on narcissism and decided to finally distance myself from him.

    The first narcissistic person I interacted with was my best friend. We had known each other since I was three and she was two so basically our whole lives. Honestly she's always been the type of person who wants control over everything but I never really minded it until last year. Last year was when all those bad qualities of her's went to the extreme. She made me feel like I was an awful person and if I said what my opinion was she would get mad if it was different from her opinion. She was very much unforgiving of the smallest mistake or none mistake that she made me feel like was a mistake. Like if we played a game and I accidentally went on her turn she would make me feel so bad that I would just walk away full of guilt over absolutely nothing. One story that ended the friendship was went she slapped me for leaving class without her, I tried to explain what she did was wrong but she laughed it off with a joke. I had tried to keep it to myself until my next therapy session but I was crying myself to sleep and I couldn't do it because it was too painful. I quietly made my way to the living room where my dad was. When he looked up I was crying and he got really concerned so I told him what happened and he went to go wake my mom up. We did our best to make an excuse as of to why I wasn't going to school with her the next day, it worked. I ended up writing a carefully written letter to end the friendship and my mom gave it to her mom after reviewing it. She sent one back but her mom did not review it and there was lots of narcissism in it that I saw right through. She even added a bribe to keep us friends by sending a little pin.

      .A lot of people do not understand the operations of the exploitation of ignorance, or exploiting a thriving market with a low quality product, or taking advantage of people's need with a fake product. And these are things we should become aware of since the internet (or youtube rather) is the teacher of so many. There's no such thing as "kind narcissism" because narcissism has nothing to do with kindness unless you mean manipulation tactics.

      My mother is a forensic psychiatrist and I have done extensive research into personality disorders lately and became aware of one in my life. How it was explained to me is that a narcissist will make you feel differently than other people will, it's a sort of negative kind of heavy emotion you get when you think about how much you like them or what they mean to you. They might seem like they're above other people and even exceptional, but instead of the normal feeling of admiration you may notice feelings of heaviness and a hint of negativity when you examine them and their behavior

    Speaking as someone who is like this, but does genuinely believe in helping others, I feel this is a psychological adaptation to help me survive--moreso authentically rather than physically--in a world that didn't care whether I did or not. And I notice this trait ... this quirk of mine becomes more exacerbated the more insecure I feel in life and vice versa.
    But because I realize this, I want to try and channel these maladaptive qualities to help build a safer life for myself so I can stop constantly draining others without having to stop living; I mean others will suffer because of me still, but at least the suffering will stop this way without thinking myself above wanting to live like everyone else.

I was pretty young back then, my mum got help and currently they are divorced, but it was definitely an experience, I remember just being 8 years old and always locking my room door covering my ears crying.

Although they seem to enjoy doing good things, they love the way it rubs off on their public image

    They’re extremely dangerous, because they are passive-aggressive. They plan and groom their victims. Think of an overt (aggressive) as a rapist, think of the covert as a pedophile. They groom everyone around their target to dismiss the target’s anxiety or anger at being abused as the problem - victim blaming. The worst part of being abused by a covert, is not being believed and getting help.
