Is it possible that narcissists have a better grasp on happiness than the rest of us? In this video I explore whether narcissists are capable of happiness. Or if it's all a facade.

That was an awesome ad by the way!â€
Have you seen the channel "real housewives recap" I found her when she was doing vids on AJLT but now she a-logs Meghan. đ
You're amazing thank you
A better question would be, how happy are you, living in a world of narcissists?
An even better question would be, what is a narcissist? Who are they really, behind their desperate needy lies?
Meghan is nothing without Harry and Harry is nothing without the royal family.
Itâs a copy/paste commentâŠbut it is true
Do you have anything original to say?
Didn't Harry serve in the military with distinction? I don't think comparing Meghan's uselessness to Harry is accurate.
â@theveryworstluck1894 no he didn't. He served, but didn't do anything especially noteworthy
@@theveryworstluck1894 All testimony says he was deep in a bunker the entire time.
Leeches can never be happy, as they are always hungry and looking for their next meal.
Because narcissists don't create, they take.
Plus, the more the leech eats, the larger it gets and the more required to fill 'full'.
@@GLJosh so nice to meet a fellow leech enthusiast LOL
No matter how fat the leech grows it always wants for another meal
I'm going to leach off the conversation by saying drug addicts have to have more of their vices to maintain or sustain their craving.
if you watch Suits, you soon realise that she played her character so well because she was playing herself.
100%
Really đźI had never watched suits because I didnât even know it existed until the engagement announcement of Harry.
I'll have to trust you on that.
Thanks for doing the research
...or she had no sense of self and adopted the character as her own. Explains why her ideas are borrowed and tired to stale. Oh. Clichés.
Why she insists on people seeing and touching her bare skin in formal situations is a mystery. Go back to old Craig Ferguson interview. Flirtacious, silicone gloved skin, almost wearing clothes, sliding around in the chair and he remarked on the alarming expanse of skin. Tee hee, she said.
It's very creepy.
Exactly what I thought đ
No one can ever convince me that Meghan is not a narcissist!
Ever!
Me too. đ
I think sheâs a psychopath. All psychopaths are narcissists but not all narcissists are psychopaths. I think sheâs a psychopathic narcissist. Iâve never seen a drop of genuine emotion. She copies others. Thatâs a sign of a psychopath.
She is our example of what NIT TO DO
If anyone tries to convince you that she is not a Narcissist- call them SUGAR and walk away. They MUST be crazy!!
Darling. It was the popular word of 2023. Everyone used it and continues to use it wrong, including you.
@@SuperStella1111 she is absolutely a narcissist in every sense of the word. They target, lovebomb, manipulate, isolate, down grade, discard and then leave. Sheâs disgusting.
Funny how South Park nailed it with these 2! World Wide Privacy Tourđ
Congrats on 300k btw! đ
"COME ON! COME ON! COME ON! COME ON! COME ON!
IT'S THE WORLDWIDE PRIVACY TOUR!
COME ON! COME ON! COME ON! COME ON! COME ON!
IT'S THE WORLDWIDE PRIVACY TOUR!"
They have had about 26 years of nailing it
South Park actually did a better episode, where Cartman eats all the skin off the KFC while everyone's back's are turned. Because he is the epitome of selfishness. So the kids hit on the brilliant strategy of ignoring him, and refusing to deal with him. And it only makes Cartman more needy for attention, because that is how attention seekers behave when you ignore them.
South Park could easily do another H&M episode and I hope they do someday. There's plenty of material!
Funny how the Sussexes saved South Park. đ
the dirty looks which she cannot control are the sliver of truth peaking through her facade. love it.
The mask SLIPS!! đ
Trust me. When they announce a divorce she will claim he was the abuser.
Yes . I'm willing to bet that is one of the reasons she had doria move in with her . I bet markle pushes Harry's buttons until he looses his temper with her and says terrible things in his fit of rage .and Markle is doing the amber herd and saving his text, provoking harry and secret video record harry when he is not at his best and she will use the text and videos the very day she gets a restraining order against harry or file for Divorce . And her mom will be her witness. And she will blame every lie she conjured up and she will reveal every secret harry has ever told her , she will accuse harry for not allowing her to contact her father and the reason why she never had a healthy relationship with Harry's family she will blame all of that on harry and she will accuse him of being mentally and physically abusive towards her and the children and accuse harry of forcing to say lies about his family . And the sad thing is the media, the sussex squad and even Hollywood will believe her and she will laugh all the way to the bank . Knowing her trophy prince gave up everything in his life to be with her . She even took harry masculinity from him and reduced harry to half a man he use to be .. Harry doesn't even look happy now . They just but on a fake facade in front of the lens. I think the trip to Nigeria finally opened Harry's eyes and seen meghan for what she really is ( loving wife and loving mother she is not ) harry and markle were invited to Nigeria to celebrate Nigeria joining the invictus game family instead it became the meghan show harry had to take a backseat as markle pranced around in her inappropriate dresses and as she cosplayed as Diana princess of wales and the invictus was ignored all together. Markle is insufferable.
She writing all the tails in her diaries.
@@annaverano5843at last, someone that agrees with me. U explained better than I could. Especially about the media and the squad being on her side. When Iâve tried to express it I start shaking from anger that ppl all agree that sheâs a narcissist and know (well not everyone agrees) exactly what a narcissist is and how their victims are in fact victims of the narcissist abuse, still criticise Harry and belittle him, just as she does. He believed her when she said she wanted privacy, convinced him his family are evil. My blood is boiling just thinking about Harry. He truly is alone. Do u remember when his mother died and the nation criticised the queen for not coming out and comforting them with their main character syndrome. She was practically forced to take her grandchildren out so that the ppl could see them and shake the boys hands. Then when the queen died everyone loved her again. How when the king left Diana everyone hated him. Hated Camilla. Now everyone loves them and hate Harry for what heâs doing to them. The true victim in this is Harry. Heâs lost his family, his country, his dignity and probably his self worth. She made him think that he couldnât get better than her and that he was lucky to have her. đą
They will never going to get divorced. Harry is her meal ticket in to the celebrity and rich world. She is never let him go and frankly I don't believe he will ever
Yep, she's so predictable.
The international privacy tour continues
"WE WANT PRYVUHSAY!" **sets off fireworks**
đđđ Best episode ever! Other than the war craft, of course.
NARCISSISTIC PEOPLE.
How many times will people like you get this so confidently wrong? They never once said they wanted to live a private life, they said they were âstepping back as senior royalsâ and would appreciate some privacy while they transition. Even working members of the royal family ask for privacy, and if i recall had Meghan not just given birth when then stepped back? I think asking for a little privacy at that time, considering how horribly the press had treated her during her pregnancy, is perfectly acceptable, UNLESS youâre Harry and Meghan. When Will and kate ask for privacy, no problem. When the royal family asks to us to give pedo prince Andrew some privacy, NO PROBLEM! The hypocrisy is astounding!
@@Aurora-lp9snare u being fr? Ppl respected Catherineâs privacy? Did u not see the chaos of Kategate and the conspiracy theories, ppl were literally saying William was beating her. Right now u are being the hypocrite
Meg is now going through the "I'm 43% Nigerian, I'm back home in Nigeria " phase, let's see how long before she gets bored and reinvents herself for the umpteenth time. South Park's depiction of Meg being empty and hollow was spot on. â _HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO?_ â
And no, Thank YOU for another valuable video đž
I thought she was Maltese?? đđ
Back home to country she loves huh. Hmmm . K.
@@zarabee2880 hey, it's one way to get a free trip and all expenses paid for. I wonder if the same Genealogist she dragged to Malta on that scam, sorry, soul searching trip to discover her roots is the same Genealogist who told her " Gurrrrrl! You're 43% Nigerian now!â đ€ đ
Before she married Harry Meghan wouldn't even acknowledge that black side of her. Growing up when signing documents she always write "white" when describing her ethnicity instead of "black" or even "mixed". She never once married or dated any black man and as far as I know she never had any black friends. Meghan only put this ambassador for black people persona when she started getting push back from the public.
â@@zarabee2880You never know tomorrow it might be different đ
Watching Meghan in Nigeria, in the UK, In the states, at different eventsâŠshe is NEVER actually listening to the people sheâs talking to, or the crowd of people sheâs meeting. All she is thinking is âhow do I look? Whereâs the cameraâ
Her recent trip to Nigeria, watching her talk to someone then completely turn her back on them as they answer. That has to be exhausting. I hope it is.
My last boss was like this. She had to leave because no body could stand her anymore. When she finally had to leave she went to some of us telling us she's finally leaving, fishing for compliments and everything else. Literally nobody said anything apart from things of the like "Oh cool", "Good!" or "Bye!". The look on her face, at each person, was priceless. "Why is no one sad that I'm leaving???", well, we've been fighting for two years for you to leave, it's about time, that's why!
The worst part is you know she didnât have a moment of âmaybe Iâm the problemâ but that sheâs most likely coping with âthey couldnât handle my intense GIRL BOSS energy, thatâs there problemâ
That is priceless indeed. I imagine that was a huge compensation
Iâm sorry you had to go through that. How awful
Iâm experiencing this with my boss right now! Our team works hard and sheâs literally never happy with us. The goalposts are always shifting. I donât need constant coddling, but working for someone who is impossible to please is quite another thing. I hope she goes the way of your former boss ⊠that, or maybe Iâll go elsewhere.
@@AnnSmajstrla What ever happens, good luck!
If you don't want to raise a little narcissist, don't let your children think they're entitled to get whatever they want, whenever they want. It's not how the world works, and they will become nightmare adults if it's allowed in childhood.
And let them be who they are. That's perhaps the biggest thing. Don't make them feel ashamed of themselves for who they are and give them love so they don't have to get it from everyone else. Because if you don't as a parent " getting love from everyone else" becomes their whole personality, as one can see with Meghan.
Narcissism is also genetic. My naternal side have a predisposition to narcissism. My uncles etc and most cousins are normal. My female sibling (I refuse to call her a sister), is a covert, malignant narcissist. She's an evil bitch. She actually started a Twitter account within hours of my mum dying for the sole purpose of destroying me. She didn't succeed but she tried. That set her off to the point that the police had to become involved. She of course tells anyone who will listen, that she's a victim and oh woe is her, she's tried to invite me to get together etc etc.
Narcissistic behaviours don't necessarily have anything to do with being 'spoilt' as children.
As a former teacher, i can say that this is good advice.
its also DNA
You are aware that Narcissism itself, as in clinical Narcissism is ... well... a Personality Disorder... Something that is primarily based on how your brain is wired...
You don't raise a Narcissist... you can raise someone with induced Narcissistic traits...
This is the kind of shizz that misinforms heavily.
I lived with a narcissist for 4 years... the worst years of my life. She was never truly happy and so controlling. I realised I couldn't help - I had to run away đ
Yea thereâs nothing you can do to help them, theyâre permanently scarred, nothing can undo the damage that caused it.
â@@InfamyOrDeath-__-typically narcissist lived very entitled lives as children. Their parents allowed them to behave with entitlement. This is why she doesn't correct her behavior whatsoever, because she feels like she's in the right no matter what.
6 yrs with a narcissistic man smh killed myself to make him happy. Youâre right, you canât help them
I lived with a narcissist for 3 yrs. They are never happy with themselves or others. Even If you love them unconditionally, they'll make it conditional. Nothing doing, just stay afar from them even if it means changing your country of residence.
They are only happy when they hurt you.
No, that's why they need continuous attention. Ignoring them is the most painful revenge.
The RFâs golden silence must be hurting so badly.
The thing that I find scary is the massive rise in narcissism, Iâve never before seen so many. I read comics for years (now I read manga) & over the last 10 years the industry is flooded with them.
It's because parents are allowing their children to grow up feeling they're entitled to get whatever they want, whenever they want. My younger sister is currently raising little narcissists right now. They will be a nightmare as adults.
@@baylorsailor This is just learnt traits as identified above from bad parenting. These habits can be unlearnt, albeit in a painful way. True narcissism is a genetic brain state that can't be unlearnt as is permanent. This is what Baggage Claim is discussing here.
I think with social media, we can see them acting live, they are exposed and documented
@@Sedow1231 Very, very true.
This is exactly how I caught out my ex-wife with her ClusterB ASPD. Without a definitive, factual SM record I would have just been gaslighted by her denying lies and, evasions.
It's often said that the term Narcissist is "so overused now" -- but it does seem that it is actually legitimately on the rise, as you point outđ
0:59 "Vampire like or at least Dracula adjacent" yo that's a bar đ„đ„đ€
Harry and Meghan are a study in real time by seeing a narcissist in action on the world stage, the misery they inflict on their partner and the carnage they leave in their wake!!
lol wat ahahahahah
Let's hope our society will be wiser about them and cease enabling them.
Gabby, thatâs how I see it too. Iâve been following this with great fascination and have learned a lot about narcissism from Harryâs wife.
Yes, and will be used to teach psychology students what narcissist behaviour looks like
Megaliar's the perfect example of how the wrong person can ruin your life
Sheâs done what all narcissists do to familyâs, torn them apart! Itâs narcissism 101, you have to have full control of your victim, family threatens this control so the narc will pick away at grievances to cause more division with the end goal being isolating their victim from close friends and family.
Exactly. I've experienced two narcissists in my life. One a family member, the other was a partner/SO. The family member (not related by blood), tore and destroyed our family from within. Brothers against brothers. Sisters against sisters. Brothers against sisters. Cousins against cousins. All of whom were very close and connected before. But this person, tore apart everyone and enjoys every bit of it deep down inside.
The other was a SO that love bombed me and then tried to separate myself from family and close friends, sowing toxic seeds in my brain to make me dislike them or see things more negatively. This is narc 101. How harry doesn't see it, makes me feel sorry for him. But he asked for it and he's too dumb to realize so he's made his own grave, so to speak. He's too chicken poop to realize how toxic she is.
I dont think harry will ever leave meghan. He is too weak. He will probably make many attempts to leave but she will reel him back in hoovering. She will use the children to control him. I am very familiar with being in a relationship with a narcissist. They confuse you, make you think what you know happened did not happen. Guilt you and the relationship only usually ends when the narcissist decides it will end. As bad as i want out of my relationship, i am trapped. I understand. I see it in them as clear as day. He tries to defend his family to her on private and she likely screams and tells him he doesn't take her side, although clearly he does, she tells him constantly how bad they are and how they conspire anganst her. Saying " you dont defend me, i would defend you" she puts him down, erodes his confidence. He wont leave.
âDracula adjacentâ my new favorite quote đđ
In a lot of versions of the story, Dracula strings Renfield along with the hope that he can eventually become a vampire, too. Compare that to a narcissistâs partner constantly trying to live up to expectations, hoping that eventually the narcissist will love them the same way the non-narcissist loves the narcissist.
@@gelchert brilliant analogy, lets hope this one has less flies and spiders đ€Ł
"Pride is not the opposite to shame, but its source. True humility is the only antidote to shame." - A wise old man who had to learn that lesson the hard way.
I'm sorry I couldn't hear you. I'm too busy screaming at the thunderstorm, begging to be struck by lightning.
During Royal Engagements you never saw an actual look of interest from her while other people are talking. She literally seethes whenever someone else has the spotlight.
I can answer that question immediately. My father, one of my sisters and my ex are all full on narcissists. They're all miserable. There's your answer in a nutshell.
And their goal in life is to make everyone equally miserable. Itâs equity.
@@InfamyOrDeath-__- yep that's what my dad and ex do. Exactly what you've written.
â@@InfamyOrDeath-__-misery likes company afterall
Or maybe you are. You are the common denominator. I am sorry to come that strong at youđđđ
@@norah4892 no you're not.
I'm always amazed at how you can take such complicated subjects and explain them in such a short space of time.
I'm sorry the CZcams algorithm is often uncooperative to the highest quality content.
It is not your fault!
Thank you for the video and have a great week! đđ
Thank you so much
Narcissists are never grateful for anything.
CZcams cannot keep this channel suppressed from me đ
the curse of CZcams... so many great creators do not get promoted, while mindless clips have millions of views... You have every reason to feel proud of your work, regardless of number of views...
A narcissist that I know made the statement "My life is perfect" which couldn't have even been possible for this individual and the state of their life. Anyway very few people have perfect lives, the statement itself is odd.
In many ways being so phoney and delusional must be a miserable life.
That is true. No matter how it looks from the outside, every life has its lived experiences of failure, fear, defect, defeat, dissapointment.
Perfection really does not exist
Iâm grateful for social media in these moments.
Narcissist canât resist social media. Itâs literally a wonderland for them; theyâre encouraged to make it all about them, they can quantify the attention theyâre getting, and thereâs no one to call them out on their ish.
Social media has made finding whoâs a narcissist VERY easy
As Benny Hill once said âa friend in need is a bloody nuisanceâ
Ive enjoyed every post you have made. I dont see MM ever really being happy because she's so shallow. Enough is never enough.
Nobody else wants them. Eventually they will divorce. But it will take a crisis. The fake kids comes to light, one of them goes to jail or gets sick.. something like that.
With this degree of pride and self-absorption, itâs like having a black hole in your soul. Pray for her.
congrats to the 300k subscribers. Narcissists are completely empty inside, trying to conceal them with their appearance and behavior. Itâs like being hungry all the time and not being able to satisfy that hunger no matter how much you eat.
I think narcissists would be even more unhappy if they were completely alone than they already are. You need this confirmation from others that they are worth something, beautiful, etc.
Itâs kind of a trick question. They donât feel emotions like we do. They never developed past the age of about 4 years old. So itâs like asking if a hurricane is evil. The answer is ânot applicableâ.
The sad yet funny thing about this, after being with a an ASPD wife for +20years, is that I now I always imagine my life then as holding a toddler's hand. Becuse for these sorts they have fully mastered the art of very skillful lying to get what they want by that age - as you state. Yet, I would never imagine myself dating a child. But that was in effect my life because her emotional state was never fully developed. Leaving me telling her often when to say please/thank you, when to be grateful, when she should express sadness, when to praise the children and then always to smile for the camera (which is an ASPD difference from NPD).
Then sadly because unlike being able to immediately identify a toddler by their very size there is no immediate signs of ClusterB. All types within are masters of hiding that through their lies whilst reeling you in with charm and wit. Took me over two decades before my daughter explained that her very mother was a sociopath! Till then I just though "difficult" and a bad marriage! How I wish there was a way to have readily seen her PD....
@@ostwelt wow, Iâm sorry, that really sucks. And Iâm sorry to say this, my man, but your parents (most likely your mom) probably also had some kind of cluster b going on as well. Which is why you canât easily see it in others. There are tons of ways of seeing almost immediately if you know what a stable, rational person/relationship looks like. The fact that you were so blind to it (no offense, just saying) means you were trained not to see it. Really sorry that happened to you :(
That was really valuable!! And that woman is an excellent example of Narcissist behavior
They have brief moments of satisfaction, but are never happy. You cannot satisfy a narcissist.
This was really well done! I appreciate that you took the time to address how we need to be self-aware of our "narssistic fleas." We may not be a narcissist, but there are certain behaviors that can be narcissistic, and we should introspect and curb that behavior.
1. 00:07:12 Narcissists will never understand they are the problem after all, or at least they don't care. They lack the empathy or self-awareness from this delusion to do so. As such, they will never change.
2. 00:07:20 Anyone who was raised by narcissists or has been in long-term relationships with them will pick up narcissistic traits through conditioning, but realizing these types of behaviours are narcissistic, and if we make the conscious effort to correct this behaviour is a key difference between narcissists and non-narcissists.
For all the lies they tell other people, they tell themselves 100 times more.
Meganâs childrenâs book was too artistic, or ahead of itâs time, or too good, so publishers sabotaged its sales.
It is never a case of admitting they failed, and a learning opportunity.
They convince themselves they are the victims, and that is why the world doesnât love them.

As soon as baggage claim posts, I click!
Lmaooo the sponsor bit was good
I argue with the point that narcissists never know that they are the problem cause after watching this Itâs been like a mirror help up to my face,and itâs hit me how Iâve treated my wife and friends recently
I want you to know that the work you do here is fantastic. I was scrolling through to pick the last video Iâll listen to before bed, and when I saw that this was Baggage Claim I said to myself, âThat girl is so smart.â And I clicked. And here I am. Iâm sorry to hear that some videos havenât performed the way you would have liked but that does NOT devalue your work. Keep it up!
Thank you so much. Thatâs so sweet of you to say
The way you weaved in thors examples of her behaviour was beautifully done!
My ex was like this, and I was strong enough to end things before they got to devaluation. It's a frightening thing how powerful their spell is at first, and how easy it is to push aside the red flags cause things are so "good " Be careful everyone. Don't ignore the red flags! They'll save you a lot of misery.
to release attachment you donât have to give up your stuff and go live in the woods. freedom from attachment means being happy whether or not things turn out the way you want them to. you can still hope and dream and strive.
I usually never comment but I wanted to thank you for the precious advice in this video. I bet this will help alot of people even those who already came to the conclusions you are wording out, its always good to get reminded. Wish you a beautiful day!
Thank you kindly!
Wow! Love the fact that you've shown your face for the first time. You're so beautiful!
Thank you so much!!
Fantastic video, growing up in a family of narcissistic parents and now living in a society where narcissism is praised to the exclusion of all else it's refreshing to hear some pushback against the constant gaslighting. Thank you!
I wanted to let.you.know that i find this format of you speaking to the camera more engaging than your older format. Love your videos!
Thanks glad to hear it!
As a narcissist myself I can confirm this is all in fact true đđ»
No offence but my narcissism is WAAY shinier. Edit, I also liked my own comment
@@celiacresswell6909 Nononononono MY narcissistic tendencyâs are WAY shinier!
I enjoy your entire analysis about narcissism, happiness, ego, expectation,and criticism. It really elevates your video above the whole MM drama. We can all learn something from this. Thank you.
Your explanation of the narcissist is very good, I get it more and more. Thank you!
idk why any time i watch your video i want to cry, its so thoughtful almost therapeutic
Had an affair with a married narcissist it almost broke me⊠as I was sick and unemployed when she discarded me and watched her move on instantly and started telling people she was happy with her husband.
That is not fun.
You had an affair and thought it would end well?
The only one I feel sorry for here is the husband shackled to this harpy.
@@cursedcancersurvivoryes, what a weird comment. Maybe itâs an AI trolling us.
Are you sure you aren't a narc yourself? You participate in victimizing her husband and then depict yourself as a victim? Scum.
Excellent. I love the quote "do not think of yourself more highly than you ought. " It's in the bible somewhere but I don't know exactly where!đ
Love that!
I like this video format, where we get to see more of you. I think it helps build rapport between your viewers and you.
I really appreciate the section toward the end of how we can learn from the mistakes of a narcissistic and how we should challenge our ego.
So good to see another Baggage Claim video! â€
Hello hello - great content as always! Even your plugs are hilarious!
I think you are right about a narcissist being incapable of learning humility and being incapable of positive change - that seems pretty well demonstrated, particularly in MM's case. The only thing she seems to learn from her past mistakes is how WRONG everyone else is.
You noted that eventually employees, family members, romantic partners, friends - they can sooner or later realize the truth and leave the narcissist.
But what about the public? MM reminds me of Amber Turd, in that I don't think either has ever accepted that the majority of the public does NOT view them positively. I also don't see either of them gracefully giving up the limelight - which will probably mean increasingly ludicrous attempts to regain relevance and attention.
You think maybe "the public" might learn something positive about appearance vs. reality when the MM supernova comes?
With Amber, she had such a public fall that she's gone into hiding, so she can privately find more people to ensnare. I suspect Meghan will have a similar (not as massive though) fall from grace when she and Harry get divorced, and she'll go into hiding. I think the public is starting to learn that already. Whether it's a lesson that will stick is another issue.
@@BaggageClaim If any lesson is learnt by Harkle it will by definition be the wrong one (because they lack the necessary psychology balance to make the correct relationship appreciation).
For society at large, no. Historically there is no evidence of the lessons of NPD being learnt by society. Depsite the ancient texts like the Bible or the Greeks warning of them (NPD named for the Greek mythological figure Narcissus, who fell in love with his own reflection). The problem is ClusterB's are blessed with immense charm and wit (e.g. Trump/Johnson) which dazzles all of us. For how long depends but unless you do full psychological evaluation of all the people you meet in the first few minutes !!!!!! (Imagine on that date: "sorry I am not buying you another drink until I have done a full Hare Psychopathy test!") Then PD diagnosis will only come with painful hindsight.
Great video!! Thank you again Baggage Claim and happy 300k subscribers!
I get a smile on my face when a new Baggage Claim video drops. Narcissim is such a tough thing to talk about and it's even worse having to deal with one, but you talked about it so well. A weary day at work is definitely made up by your smile and positive vibes!
Great to see your face! You are just brilliant with your observations and insights! â€
Congratulations on 300k!!!!
Always such an easy watch, great that you're featuring more in your videos.
It never fails to amaze me the level of research and effort you put in to your videos. That's why you're one of my favorite creators when it comes to media discussions and essays. I like this new style that you're going for in your videos. Keep it up!
Baggage claim, your videos are awesome and you're beautiful!
Thank you so much!!
Your work is spectacular. The only improvement would be to produce more of it. More content, more videos. Each are fantastic.
I enjoyed your description of our ego and it's need to codify what we believe is our identity, and the fight it puts up when given uncomfortable truths about our behaviour, and the cognitive dissonance that we then struggle with. Your reminder of the need to be humble is important.
Wow-Excellent video! Thank you!
She's back! đđ
Notice how she has put herself more into the vid as well?
I remember suggesting this in a previous post.
Itll work like a charm for views
I love your analyses of NPD, and Meghan Markle is a textbook narcissist. I have watched all your videos, and would love more content dissecting Meghan's awful behaviour and her inability to introspect and understand that it is her actions and not her skin that make her repulsive to so many people!
I loved what you said about the ego craving stability, that was such a helpful way to frame it.
Also, that had to be the best June's Journey bit ever. My daughter plays it, and really enjoys it.
Very, very good and thought provoking video. Well done!
I am endlessly fascinated by narcissism and those in the web of it. (I struggle with whether they are victims or happy travelers on that particular road.) Anyway, I just wanted to say that this is another great video and that I love your delivery and broad topics. Talking Meghan and Harry and then pivoting to Geek culture and holding your own with Drinker and Co is no mean feat.
Brilliant! Thank you for this short but very informative talk about the narc and the very good advice as to how we should deal with our own ego.
Dear Baggage,
What an excellent video!
Many thanks.
I see that we've all learned a lot on the subject of narcissism from HG Tudor.
Do an analysis of Baby Reindeer!

Excellent video, I appreciate your analysis of ego and humility. You are right, being able to discern between the two is the key to not only being happy but living a fulfilled and productive life.
Love the way that you turn around this understanding narcissism journey as an onlooker (or participant in their life in one form or another) in to understanding more about our own disappointments and expectations not being fulfilled or exactly the way we want it. At the 09.00 mark forward or a bit earlier, when you speak about your own experience with your own videos, when something doesn't perform view wise the way one somehow expected to, is a weird sensation. I have another channel(i am a visual artist) where i make videos of (some) very famous people, alterations to their music, using remixes and footage of the performer in question and make up entirely new videos, in unexpected ways, and sometimes i have worked on a video like 6, 9 months..a YEAR sometimes before everything sits correctly and i'm obviously super proud of my own work and i have a very good "fan base" whom have followed me since the beginning, some nine years ago..(but i am NOT monetized, so i am limited in visibility by algorithms, i get that) it feels i dunno..disappointing, strange..it's a weird feeling because it me ME feel like i'm feeling something WRONG or shameful so to say. But at the end of the day, i have spent so much time of my life alone in various sets and circumstances and for a number of reasons and i think about shit real deeply and therefore am always the first one to analyze my own judgments about myself. Am i REALLY behaving or reacting in a selfish or egotistical manner because of THIS (whatever it happens to be) ? or..am i just feeling especially vulnerable right now for some reason, i analyze my WHOLE life situation as one, to get a complete picture of -where i am at right now. I EASILY blame myself for shit when i shouldn't, because i was TAUGHT that way by a set of really strict and religious parents, and as an atheist and artist and everything that makes me a person i tend to feel a bit like an outsider in most situations (because of very disturbing things that happened in my childhood, one becomes a life long "weirdo" so to say) , so..when i feel that insecurity about myself creep up when some video "only" makes it to 2000 plus views or whatever when i was expecting OLD numbers of 10k or whatever..it takes me on an analytical journey INSIDE, rather than outside. And so, i know i am NOT a narc. They never make such an interior journey with themselves.
Sorry i rambled on here a bit but, thanks for a BRILLIANT video and communications , openness and showing your own vulnerable feelings. It really helped me right now. I know it will have the same effect on so many others. You are a true healer. (ps. edited only for typo reasons)
She has no joy, ironic how the one woman to beat the odds and win the heart of a real life Prince without being of royal or noble birth.............. You'd win 4 State lotteries before you could come into the British Royal Family.
Yet she's a far cry from Cinderella or Rapunzel,she has beauty but no elegance, no selflessness,lack of appreciation for her life, seeking or dare I say begging for attention..... I honestly pity her kid's mental health, Harry made his choice
We all have our flaws but Megan personifies them. The wicked can never know happiness.
Why did the Prince selected an average looking divorced B actress is beyond my comprehension.
It was probably the first black but not too black person he ever met and thought it would be a great virtue signal to bring someone he could sell as a "common black person" into the royal family.
Excellent video. You answered questions I've often wondered about
I really appreciate you turning it back on us the audience, in how we can take these lessons into our own lives. It is great to take the time to self-reflect on what we personally can do to be better and more happy in our own lives.
Narcissists aren't born, they are made. And I've seen a massive spike in narcissism in recent years. The "victim" culture has created many of them and keeps creating many more.
You look beautiful.. Love your Hair â€
Did you see BaggageClaim's wedding photos she posted yesterday? Holy shit!

She looks gorgeous like wow ...
ALWAYS great to see you. Awesome content. Well done.
I needed this more than I knew! Thank you for your words and wisdom!
Does anybody else watch these videos just for confirmation that you are not a narcisist? đ đ
Or for confirmation that I am one thank you đ
Lol yepđ
the relief I feel when it shows that Iâm not is INTENSE
@@JasonCarmichael-xy5qw It hurts my precious ego when I happen to identify with the traits...
No, I embrace it. I'm just looking for the roadmap of my demise
The baggage claim is hotter than Meghan
Astoundingly impressive submission! This is why I'm a satisfied subscriber.
I was looking forward for your two cents on this
I can say it's worth the wait.
keep up the good work.
