    Exactly. Energy flows where attention goes so if you watch narc videos for too long, you’ll marinate in the doom and gloom that is your life. If you are able, and I really emphasize that if you truly are able to get out, focus on moving forward and try to surround yourself with positive people, places and content. Good luck fellow survivors!

    That's the point of what Dr Ramani is saying... ultimately her message is about YOU and getting into who you really are as an individual person once removed from a narcissistic abuser. It IS about moving forward and disconnecting from that dynamic, getting yourself back. Your power back. Restoring your own thoughts, heart and goals. It's the focus on you and not burning your energy into that dark abyss of negativity. Hence..... Outsmarting them. The energy is what you put into yourself, by shifting the control back to yourself, thus, defueling them. That's how you win. That is what the message is. Taking YOU back IS outsmarting them.

    I have zero compassion for a narcissist. The only way, in my honest opinion, to outsmart a narcissist is to ignore, ignore, ignore and have no contact with them whatsoever. We have a narcissistic brother-in-law, and I've cut him out of my life completely, no contact in six years. Unfortunately my sister is clearly trauma-bonded to him since he can do no wrong.

    An ex cousin I had is a hopeless narcissist. She went as far as to steal money from several relatives plus myself. This is what brought us to the point of no return because she began gaslighting and doubling down when busted. Since removing her from my life, it has been much more peaceful. No more texts, phone calls, etc., etc. When she spoke to me at a family reunion, I acknowledged her without saying her name by looking at her for three seconds and saying, "Hey there."

    I’ve been in narcissistic long term relationships with 2 different men in my life and I sure would appreciate having a support system like a friend or a family. I hear a lot from videos on KZread is that it is a necessary thing to have. I have lived a hermit life not by choice for decades now. I take walks but there is nothing around me to much to see. I say hi to passersby when I see someone but that’s about it. I have no vehicle or don’t live near any bus stops but I sure do miss sitting down and having a cup of coffee with someone with a kind and loving perspective on life and others. Well I just wanted to tell a little bit about my life and say hello to others out here on earth like myself anyways. 👋🏼 😊

Be physically active and pursue your faith in the God of Heaven (Jesus Christ).

I’ve been going minimum contact since 2019 (due to her having 2 teenage sons) I can’t fully cut her off. She still blames me for everything that goes wrong in her life. Blocking her online/calls etc…..has become my only way, so as not to hear her abusive threats and accusations. I Thank God, that she manages to treat her sons in a decent manner. Much prayer, has, and will continue to go up to our dear Lord and saviour Christ Jesus for her soul, and of course for her boys.

It's unfortunate that your situations are tough, but so are many people's. If you don't have interest in the knowledge and experience Dr Ramani and other professionals have to offer and you've figured it out by yourself ...well then great. But don't discount the incredible knowledge this woman has and has provided so many people in need at No Cost. She is a gift. She has healed herself and relates to so many of us. We should find value in that. Although I agree with your writings of God and His Grace, He also teaches not to judge. Once your "saved" you are not above the rest, we are All here in the same place Because we are all the same to God. You know, so many people go through life as if they know it all, they have it all figured out. But there is only One that has it all figured out. God. And He has put us here To figure it out, so No One goes through this life knowing it all. Hence, learning from others. There is something to be learned from you being here watching and reading this. That's up to you to figure out, just like the rest of us.

Got more out of In 6 months rather than in 20+ years Counciling and meds only works if it's works for you. Many council and med situations have to fit you. Or could easily just make harder or worse even. Speak from experience. To each their own. Not anti council. But I've had therapists that were worse off than I...can't get help or healing from such lol. These groups are lit a life saver. Blessings all. Keep up the good self care.

My biggest mistake from being in a relationship with one of these people for 25 years is, you think you know them. You think you know what they will do in ever situation. However, you only know the regulated version of them. The version that gets their necessary supply levels. The other version is very, very unstable. Once you see that version or as they say, once you see behind the mask, you will never forget it. They are capable of anything and I do mean anything. You are living with a person that isn't complete. Realize that you are not just in a very bad situation, you are in a very bad situation that is also, very very dangerous. I know this for sure. We think they are very strong, well put together people with great life skills that just are extremely difficult to get along with at times. No. That is the regulated version. That is the mask.

    She’s right but the more you believe that you can’t leave the narcissist the more you really should seriously consider leaving them. But be safe. They can be very dangerous. If you can’t physically leave as in getting a divorce you still can put distance between you and him or her. Find wholesome things to do with friends colleagues family members hobbies creative projects such as painting writing poetry restoring a classic car get into drag racing (the legal kind ) sailing your yacht around the world climbing Mount Everest….And add to this the use of gray rock. Just be extremely boring to them and spend very little time around them. Have honest good fun and be happy living your best life in spite of them.

    Dr Ramani please talk about narcissists and not wanting to make wills when they have a large amount of assets. My husband won’t make a will and also is always saying that our only child will get nothing every time my son doesn’t do what he says. My son is grown and has his own life. My husband expects him to drop everything and leave work when my husband can’t do something on the computer

    Narcs put more focus on a bad reaction than the ice cold sociopathic behavior that led to the reaction. I have a friend that does not care one bit what my family has done to me. It completely bores and bothers him to hear about it. Yet he will correct me for my preferences and ways of doing things. These are things that are not harming people but just a part of my beliefs. If my mom committing adultery to him is inconsequential then why do I get questioned and berated when I can’t make Christmas for example. His policy is who cares for everyone else but for me it’s this impossible standard and he is always pointing out something.

    Planning is everything in leaving. Keeping them and the flying monkeys out of the loop is vital. Prepare for the worst just so nothing is a surprise. My narc's exit went smoothly and he thought he was leaving me vs being shown the door. He started harrassing after but police gave me some good advice and it stopped.

    Replacing the narcissist toxic relationship dynamics and patterns with a new healthy one is gold.

Its like relearning what normal and healthy and safe is all over again. 😅

    Gaslighting in a nut shell: Narc: calls someone pretty right in front of you You: discuss it with them Narc: you misunderstood you always so insecure You: oh I’m sorry Narc: 😈 You: maybe I am insecure Narc: dismissing you and now you are confused and the situation was flipped to their sick twisted disgusting agenda. Conclusion: walk away. ✌️🚶‍➡️ It will hurt it will painful the realization of truly the person who have been dealing with. Might actually make you throw up n get sick to your stomach.

    I WISH I had taken a year off after the 20 years I was involved with the narcissist. I did wait a year and a half after our breakup, but he was still in the house, he was making it a toxic, protracted, super painful divorce. And people kept urging me to start dating. I ended up going into a relationship that I knew was wrong for me and again folliwed my pattern of staying in it too long.

    A narc doesn't care whether you have empathy or compassion for them...that's the bottom line. You're just trapping yourself if you do that. They can fake it or use it but that's all. So don't even bother. That's one of the reasons why a narc is so infuriating to a caring normal human being.
