@@terrymiddleton6077 I’m in the same boat. I grew up adjacent to Christianity without ever formally taking its teachings on myself, though the ethical side has mostly stuck. I find myself wondering more and more these days - can I truly continue denying the logic behind Biblical prophecy, and the implications that stem from it? I’m increasingly skeptical of humanity’s ability to fairly and justly rule itself with any degree of competence.

Empaths are a breed of narcissist. Go follow HG Tudor- a psychopath/narc that tells on his own kind. Empaths are essentially a failed narcissist. We were raised by narcs or other empaths and so that codependency has been passed onto us. Sure we can feel empathy- to a point of total dysfunction. But all the other traits of the narc raise to the surface when we feel our needs aren’t being met. From common codependents to full blown borderlines- the empath is not a healthy person. Stop wearing it like a badge. It’s funny you guys haven’t stopped to wonder why there are ALSO so many empaths now. We are the children of the narcs. That’s why. We also want recognition for good deeds. We are the ones who post things to social media that make us look like martyrs. We will love you until we chase you away with our neediness, then when you abandon us and we eventually get over it, we will loathe you (that’s our narc wound surfacing). Welcome to the club. I’m an empath. A borderline.

We all know that’s not how real life works because if we pay bills late we get bad credit…it’s a free for all in some public schools and when I passed out a test and the kid pushes it back and says I’m not ready to take this now I’ll do it later and it’s okay ?

As someone with a (religious) narcissistic mother- spoiling, participation trophies, lack of religion, social media are NOT the source of narcissism. Nature vs nurture is at play, but the nurture contribution is almost always due to early childhood trauma. Narcissists are not spoiled, vain brats. They're traumatized and void of empathy. It's far worse.

Man I really like your work, but dude the break down of the family and "taking God out of American life" mythology??? God isn't a safeguard against narcissism. Performance church-going (look at me I go to church constantly, look at me in the family pew, look at me voting against the teachings of Jesus, look at me quoting the OLD testament in an attempt to shame someone with less power, look at me applaud the minister who is preaching people should not be allowed dignity at church or in public, look at me perfunctorily praise God for my good fortune but not my opponent's), celebrity pastors, tyranny of legalistic church rules, blind access and trust in a church elder/deacon/youth pastor/etc, indeed religion is a playground of narcissism. If you require a fear of God to practice right from wrong, you are a narcissist at heart. If you have empathy and accountability, you will be safeguarded far far better. I think we could find agreement t that there is a breakdown in the family because parents are unsupported by bad public policies that do not protect the time, dignity, rest, and care for parent or child. You can not constantly reward exploitation in policy and dehumanize the individual citizen and think things arent going to fall apart. C.f. Religion isn't helping. God might be an ally but he can't just be the ally of one person or one church. Believing God ALWAYS wants what you want IS narcicissm.

Yes old style teaching worked far better than this new system! We had a really great headmistress when my first two children were very small but then the system changed, two schools merged to form an academy and a new style of teaching was brought in and there was less authority for the teachers, at least that was my experience of it since I used to be called into school to get my child from under the table or out of the cupboard because he couldn't be handled by a teacher ( I was breast feeding my newborn at the the time too). They looked at me gone out when I put him in the naughty corner at school because he was running me ragged whilst in school. Mrs O'Brien was old school and you just didn't push boundaries with her! My second born son was very much a boundary pusher and got off on sensationalism, my older son was very good he had 3 monitor jobs. Personally the teachers should of had the authority to get him out from under the table rather than having to call us in to do it for them. That would have never happened under Mrs O'Brien's watch! I think schools are also under alot of stress with governing bodies like Ofstead that it focuses more on the red tape and takes away from teaching!

It's not always mommy and daddy got money and spoiled baby. Very easy description which makes me question your credentials. Sometimes, for people like me, who grew up how I grew up, it's the opposite. Sometimes it boils down to severe punishments so you become slippery to avoid trouble. Sometimes it's about just feeling like people like you, even if you're aware that they only really like the puppet you made of yourself for them. I went almost 30 years having no idea that the way my brain works has a name and that it's a bad name. So I try to be "genuine" but even that feels fake.

No, God gave us free will and choice. Many of us made the 'choice' to turn our backs on him and his Word. Many of us discredited the TRUTH contained in the Bible. Instead 'hated' on TRUE Christians whilst talking about 'love'. Many of us rejected God's Word and guidance and said I want to do it my way according to my interpretation! These are false people (pretending to believe in God) obsessed with SELF = deluded narcissists. 2 CORINTHIANS 11:12-14 (v.12) “But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast. (v.13) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. (v.14) And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.” II Corinthians 11:12-14 NKJV

And did you really appreciate that feeling? I suppose you beat your own children because you think you turned out alright? Well you didn't. A child is powerless and you approve of a grown, strong adult beating a small child like that? You think that won't affect them as an adult? You're a sick man. If an adult male "whaled the hell" out of another adult male, he'd be jailed for grievous bodily harm. So why is it ok in your mind to assault and deliver permanent injury to a small child? That's sick, man. You need therapy. And if you do beat your children, don't be surprised if they fail at school ,at work,at life. Because they have childhood trauma and parents who should be safe turn out to be the greatest threat. I'm glad I don't know you and that you're not in front of me. I was emotionally abused by both my parents and I was born in 1963. And my father raped me. And I wasn't believed. It was me being a liar. There are many good people who are good despite forced indoctrination. And man, how conceited is this post? What the hell makes you think it's only america? Grow up and open your eyes.

Empaths are a breed of narcissist. Go follow HG Tudor- a psychopath/narc that tells on his own kind. Empaths are essentially a failed narcissist. We were raised by narcs or other empaths and so that codependency has been passed onto us. Sure we can feel empathy- to a point of total dysfunction. But all the other traits of the narc raise to the surface when we feel our needs aren’t being met. From common codependents to full blown borderlines- the empath is not a healthy person. Stop wearing it like a badge. It’s funny you guys haven’t stopped to wonder why there are ALSO so many empaths now. We are the children of the narcs. That’s why. We also want recognition for good deeds. We are the ones who post things to social media that make us look like martyrs. We will love you until we chase you away with our neediness, then when you abandon us and we eventually get over it, we will loathe you (that’s our narc wound surfacing). Welcome to the club. I’m an empath. A borderline.

We all know that’s not how real life works because if we pay bills late we get bad credit…it’s a free for all in some public schools and when I passed out a test and the kid pushes it back and says I’m not ready to take this now I’ll do it later and it’s okay ?

You cant divorce your chikdeen but legal says you dont owe them for their excessive and srlfishe spending ,etc Thankful for dogs abd cats thst are loving and give more caring love than children that belittled and blame you for their bad choices. This is one of the best psychiatry speeches ecer. My mom saw problems ,partly because she had been a psychiatric nurse.
As someone with a (religious) narcissistic mother- spoiling, participation trophies, lack of religion, social media are NOT the source of narcissism. Nature vs nurture is at play, but the nurture contribution is almost always due to early childhood trauma. Narcissists are not spoiled, vain brats. They're traumatized and void of empathy. It's far worse.

Man I really like your work, but dude the break down of the family and "taking God out of American life" mythology??? God isn't a safeguard against narcissism. Performance church-going (look at me I go to church constantly, look at me in the family pew, look at me voting against the teachings of Jesus, look at me quoting the OLD testament in an attempt to shame someone with less power, look at me applaud the minister who is preaching people should not be allowed dignity at church or in public, look at me perfunctorily praise God for my good fortune but not my opponent's), celebrity pastors, tyranny of legalistic church rules, blind access and trust in a church elder/deacon/youth pastor/etc, indeed religion is a playground of narcissism. If you require a fear of God to practice right from wrong, you are a narcissist at heart. If you have empathy and accountability, you will be safeguarded far far better. I think we could find agreement t that there is a breakdown in the family because parents are unsupported by bad public policies that do not protect the time, dignity, rest, and care for parent or child. You can not constantly reward exploitation in policy and dehumanize the individual citizen and think things arent going to fall apart. C.f. Religion isn't helping. God might be an ally but he can't just be the ally of one person or one church. Believing God ALWAYS wants what you want IS narcicissm.

Yes old style teaching worked far better than this new system! We had a really great headmistress when my first two children were very small but then the system changed, two schools merged to form an academy and a new style of teaching was brought in and there was less authority for the teachers, at least that was my experience of it since I used to be called into school to get my child from under the table or out of the cupboard because he couldn't be handled by a teacher ( I was breast feeding my newborn at the the time too). They looked at me gone out when I put him in the naughty corner at school because he was running me ragged whilst in school. Mrs O'Brien was old school and you just didn't push boundaries with her! My second born son was very much a boundary pusher and got off on sensationalism, my older son was very good he had 3 monitor jobs. Personally the teachers should of had the authority to get him out from under the table rather than having to call us in to do it for them. That would have never happened under Mrs O'Brien's watch! I think schools are also under alot of stress with governing bodies like Ofstead that it focuses more on the red tape and takes away from teaching!

I didn't leave for a long time because I thought that she would change I thought that I could change her I thought that she would see what a good man I was but I found out the hard way that she was incapable of loving me I found out the hard way that in order for a narcissist to love they have to love themselves first and I guess that's impossible it's great to see a new face are you a new face to me in this ongoing disgusting issue with the life-changing and destroying narcissist thank you

He left his other kids out of his will and we weren’t even invited to his 70th birthday party. He also stopped acknowledging my birthday. When my younger sister died I had to plead with him just to see her one last time. His own daughter! This wicked woman (who he worships) has caused problems within the family and even between him and his brother. Of course, there’s wealth this woman is after for herself. She didn’t marry for love. I wish my dad loved his kids like you love yours.

I totally believe Satan released a legion during that time and those demons latched onto the souls who incarnated on earth, rejected God, and consented to their influence. They wreak havoc on the children of God who remain faithful to Him.

I agree with you on all points. I also think the internet and texting as a means of communicating with no real human connection. It creates a coldness. People don’t even realize it, mostly because a lot of the younger generation hasn’t ever experienced connection like we had before technology.
In the end times men will be lovers of themselves= narcissism.

Right on! My dad always used to say, "it all started when they threw the switch out". What I say is, "the reason they threw the switch out, is because they threw the Bible out first". “He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.” Proverbs 13:34 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.” Proverbs 22:15 “Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.” “Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell.” Proverbs 23:13&14 “The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.” (Proverbs 29:15, KJV)

there are a lot of religious narcissists so I don’t know why we blame a person for not indoctrinating their kids into being mindless slaves who only do the right thing because they are told to people should be for goodness sake not to go to heaven and do things out of fear instead teach your child to do good for goodness sake not for themselves not for god but because it is the right thing to do.
Boy is this the truth, every word!!!!!
Amen 🙏💯 absolutely correct.and look at the people in this world today .
True. I believe also that since the beginning of time the "norm" was to have several other siblings. Having other siblings (brothers/sisters) teaches people so many things, i.e. how to share with others (i.e., the attention of parents- material things - learning proper conversations and interactions with those of our age, and that the "universe does not revolve around us" - and it goes on and on. m
As someone that found out a few years ago that what I am is called a narcissist, that took this information and try to fight off my narcissistic tendencies, you got me dead wrong. It's not always mommy and daddy got money and spoiled baby. Very easy description which makes me question your credentials. Sometimes, for people like me, who grew up how I grew up, it's the opposite. Sometimes it boils down to severe punishments so you become slippery to avoid trouble. Sometimes it's about just feeling like people like you, even if you're aware that they only really like the puppet you made of yourself for them. I went almost 30 years having no idea that the way my brain works has a name and that it's a bad name. So I try to be "genuine" but even that feels fake. Like I'm playing along to some nonsensical rules that nobody made up yet everyone follows.

@@LauraHalvar another thing about it is that a lot of the time when I'm hurting people with my narcissism, I genuinely do not mean to hurt you and I genuinely do not realize I'm hurting you. Almost every time I've caused someone emotional pain from my narcissism, I didn't even know I hurt them until after the fact when you tell me flat out that I hurt you (always emotional, I don't inflict physical pain onto my loved ones) so I also have to ruminate on the entire situation leading up to the point that you said my actions hurt you and I have to really really concentrate and sift through my thoughts at the time to try to figure out how and/or why I hurt you. Sometimes I see it quickly, sometimes it takes much longer, sometimes I still don't see it. I'm not sure what it is that causes the mental block but I'll tell you it's kinda annoying

Individualistic culture (which we don't actually have) while having no accountability like how narcissists are regularly rewarded with positions of power, money, etc. Culture also encourages bragging so image is so much more important
I got annoyed when he blamed God being removed, until he explained why. I totally agree and it never occurred to me the benefit of encouraging others to believe in a higher power outside of themselves. Without this, people internalize these things and as he said "become their own God". WOW! That's so powerful. 🤯
You are absolutely so correct! thank you for the obvious truth. can't deny it.
Good question!! Wondering that too.🤔.they have increased!!🚩...unfortunately if one parent is narcissist or worse two parents one or more of their children will become a narcissist too..really hurts when a sibling become a narcissist as the father for example...also very much because of social media as you say..never been into social media except YT...felt from the start that it was scary with a lot of strangers..🧐
The worst narcissists I know are in their 50’s and above. Not affected by these environmental factors you describe. Think it is more than that.
SADNESS OF A CHILD MISSING A PARENT AND CRYING PERFUSIVLY.... BEING LEFT AT DAYCARE OR BABYSITTER FOR EXAMPLE ......TIME AND TIME AGAIN UNTIL THE CHILD IS EMOTIONALLY BROKEN.
I always said that. When we don't focus on G-d we focus on ourselves. This breeds narcissism.

No, God gave us free will and choice. Many of us made the 'choice' to turn our backs on him and his Word. Many of us discredited the TRUTH contained in the Bible. Instead 'hated' on TRUE Christians whilst talking about 'love'. Many of us rejected God's Word and guidance and said I want to do it my way according to my interpretation! These are false people (pretending to believe in God) obsessed with SELF = deluded narcissists. 2 CORINTHIANS 11:12-14 (v.12) “But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast. (v.13) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. (v.14) And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.” II Corinthians 11:12-14 NKJV

There have always been lots of narcissistic people in the past the reason why we notice them more now is because people especially women aren’t willing to hide and put up with it. Women especially would have to endure their narcissistic husbands cause they had no where to go and divorce was frowned upon.

And did you really appreciate that feeling? I suppose you beat your own children because you think you turned out alright? Well you didn't. A child is powerless and you approve of a grown, strong adult beating a small child like that? You think that won't affect them as an adult? You're a sick man. If an adult male "whaled the hell" out of another adult male, he'd be jailed for grievous bodily harm. So why is it ok in your mind to assault and deliver permanent injury to a small child? That's sick, man. You need therapy. And if you do beat your children, don't be surprised if they fail at school ,at work,at life. Because they have childhood trauma and parents who should be safe turn out to be the greatest threat. I'm glad I don't know you and that you're not in front of me. I was emotionally abused by both my parents and I was born in 1963. And my father raped me. And I wasn't believed. It was me being a liar. There are many good people who are good despite forced indoctrination. And man, how conceited is this post? What the hell makes you think it's only america? Grow up and open your eyes. And if you beat your kids into submission, I hope you rot in your hell.

We don't need more people like him, we need to be MORE like him! When you say you need more people like him, you're saying that you're gonna see this and your not going to try to make a change in yourself or other people and your just gonna hope that more people like him suddenly pop up out of nowhere. I'm not saying be exactly like him but try to see him as an example to change.
Absolutely brilliant assessment. Lack of civility. Lack of care for one’s fellow man. I live for the material mentality.
Ok, i hear you in all of this. And i agree. However the woman who gave birth to me is 78 years old and stark raving mad. She believes in God. But she is cruel to her husband (this is her 2nd husband, my father died when I was 5) and she is cruel to my sister and I. My sister and I have been reading up and reasearching narcissism for the last 6 months and we both have concluded that the woman who gave birth to us is a covert narcissist. I was the golden child. My poor sister was not. Each of us has severe trauma.
I don't give out likes easily. You got a like :)
