    Narcissism, (as a common topic),😳 is trending like never before, and there are so many incredible RUclips Channels and communities, and resources online (see below!).
    ❤️And, while it seems like none of us would marry an overt or grandiose narcissist as they are often described in literature or online, many of us do, often mistaking the signs, and alongside trying to heal our childhood wounds, we can feel we found a "home," in our narcissistic partners. But home, for us, was toxic.
    ❤️Even more challenging and more common, are the relationships and marriages we find ourselves in with narcissists, who initially just seemed confident, decisive and strong, but in reality were broken, controlling, hurtful selfish, and conditional men.
    Because we really didn't see the signs, and in seeking to finally be cared for, and because of our own caretaking childhoods and natures, we are waking up to the reality that we are deep in a marriage or relationship with a Narcissistic Husband.
    Staying or getting out of a marriage, especially with a Narcissistic or NPD man, can be one of the most painful and difficult things we will ever do.
    💕💕💕This video explores some of the more obvious and less obvious signs that we married a narcissistic man, and hopefully it validates your experience and all you know to be true.💕💕💕.
    You are worthy of being loved and seen for who you are, not for who the narcissistic husband or partner wants you to be.❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    Narcissistic mother, narcissistic husband. He love bombed me, and no one, I mean no one, was talking about narcissism when I was falling in love with, marrying, and having children with him. People didn't start talking about it until I had already left him. I so wish this conversation had been going on 30 years ago. He has 20 of these 22 traits. I grieve the loss of a healthy life.

      I did the same exact thing...I feel so stupid for not realizing it before I married him. I really hate myself for thinking that he actually loves me and that it would change. Lately, it has gotten worse
      My mother tried to warn me that I would have a life of a personal little hell with him and I didn't believe her. She was so right and my heart is broken, I'm so tired of his games, anger,control and cruelty.

    If your gut tells you that things aren’t right with the way you feel.
    Listen to your gut and start by setting firm boundaries and not accepting the way they speak to you and treat you.
    This will create the space between you to regain your confidence and positive sense of self.

    I’m 79 married for 42 years to a very narcissistic. He has no morals but believes he is a Christian. Doctor, everything you have mentioned is exactly how my husband acts. Since I have been a senior, it has been so hard on me. I have put myself in the hospital twice, I’ve even talked to the police on his porn subjects that I thought was against the law. They could care less.

      It is never too late to leave.
      If you stay in a toxic situation, environment, you continue to self betray, self abandon.
      Often if we have severe attachment wounds, we don't know our own value and that we have a right to needs/boundaries.
      There are senior services, supports, communities, lower cost therapy. Please show up for yourself in this phase of life. Your husband isn't going to. You can't waste one more moment focused on him...but instead on how you can improve the next chapter. Inquire why you would tolerate that dynamic and heal that. That way you become empowered, and self advocating.
      I wish you peace 💫

    You shared many aspects of The story of my marriage/divorce....he took everything. It was too expensive to fight him as he is an attorney and self represented while I had to pay for my attorney. My attorney said he never saw a divorce like it and to run not walk away from the marriage. The only thing I would add is that my body knew better and didn’t believe the lies I told myself throughout our time together and I was continuously sick. Three years after our divorce I was diagnosed with stage three head and neck cancer. It is a miracle that I survived to tell the story!

    I had to get a PFA when I divorced my husband. He made it evident he would never let me go. (Not physically abusive). He was caught taking photos of my teenage daughter sunbathing in our back yard and that gave me the leverage I needed. Even caught with evidence he denied any wrong I intent on his part. It was after that I realized how controlling and emotionally abusive he really was. That was my experience with a narcissist.

    My narc husband of 33 years passed away last year, I took care of him during his last 4 months in hospice. Not to disappoint in true narc fashion, he thought it was a good idea to “come clean” on his way out and let us all know about his wh0re in Lake Havasu (36 years old single mother(I’m sure she found this 63 years old man with cancer super attractive 🤮). Every thing you say is true, pathological liar, cheater, abusive behavior, condescending, inappropriate, arrogant, sexually deviant, shallow, BUT, I made it out of that hellscsape,a little over a year ago and am finally at peace and happy

  • @JSDolly-qc4bh
    @JSDolly-qc4bh Год назад +41

    That’s not always true about a toxic home in childhood. An empath can be just that and a covert narcissist sought them out for their beautiful giving soul. They need that empath for their supply. The empath is so giving and loving they can’t imagine someone could deep down be so evil because they never experienced anything like that in their family. Some people just plain make poor choices in a partner. Even when their family saw the poor character and laziness or indifference in the guy, the empath thinks they can fix them or take care of them and they think they’ll never need that care in return. Just when a sickness or trauma happens with the empath, the narcissist checks out and wants nothing to do with caretaking of the wife or children. Then the abusive rages start because there is an expectation of them they can’t handle. And yes they are very good at lying and justifying everything they do or don’t do. It’s a sad existence for the empath. 😢

    • @kimstrandberg9529
      @kimstrandberg9529 10 месяцев назад +3

      I agree with you and I’ve seen videos from Prof Sam Vaknin on RUclips (personally I think he’s psych breakdowns of Cluster B personality disorders is the best online although Kims delivery is soul balm for me) and he says that most often, those with some form of childhood neglect and abuse will “find” narcissistic people but in some cases, it can be someone very maternal and caring without trauma, especially if they are young and inexperienced in the world. Such was my case at 22 and travelling overseas by myself for the first time. I’m almost 50 now and have had everything around me destroyed, live in a foreign country, he foreclosed on the mortgage, lost everything except our 4 kids and managed to hang on to most of my sanity. He still acts as though that never happened and we just “don’t discuss” his behaviour. I left his filthy-ass 7 years ago. Looking at him now objectively, actually all narcs, they are sad and pathetic humans that cannot exist in the world without sucking the life out of others in order to merely exist.
      I hope they all find the thought of aging and being irrelevant a frightening prospect with little supply from others think they are as sad and pathetic as they behave. Because it is and will be for them and to that I simply say “ pass the popcorn!”

    Thought my ex was narcissistic. Because yes fights like once a month, where everything is my fault, critizing me and him being extremely sensitive to feedback and a sort of arrogance. Mostly fights where me thinking he was too strict as a father and him wanting me to support him in his being without questioning. But there is so many things I don’t recognise. Like the sex was the best sex I have ever had out of 7 partners, focusing just as much on my pleasure. Consistent with the Children, being there for them. Never Cheated, of course can you never be one hundred percent certain but i am like 95. Maybe he is more bpd, not that it change what I deserve but it gives me another perspective and better understanding. Most of the time when good he was supportive, me planning, spending my own money as I wanted, etc. But when he changes his mood like once a month or every second month it was like a completely different person, who went from being madly in love with me to hating me and thinking he is some kind of martyr and hero to deal with me.

      Have you looked into autism, ASD1. A great resource for that is Mark Hutten, on RUclips also.
      My ex acted like a covert narcissist in some ways.
      However, he also seemed pretty clueless to some aspects of life, even though he's a successful physician.
      After a decade of being together, and our child was around 1, I insisted he get evaluated by a neuropsychologist. He tested strong 6/7 of the intensive 4 hour autism spectrum test for what used to be called Aspergers.
      It was relieving and heartbreaking simultaneously. I had answers, but also realization of the massive limitations in the ability to cooperate, compromise, collaborate, communicate, in a team oriented way.
      It's worth looking into.
      I realize this is 2 years later..:but it still might be helpful!
      Sending you hope for peace💫

      So sex was greatest ever... cared for kids... was great overall... but every month he would blow up w sensitivity over your lack of support or just blow a fuse... yes.. you have it really rough.. si rough.. I got one who gets angry randomly, barely helps with kids.. checks out. Sex is maybe 2 or 3 tiles a year of I'm lucky . If I'm pregnant then it's sex once a year.. now he's on a pill which makes him some kind of gay man, he had no libido and now it's zero. Ur life ain't that rough. My husband comes alive occasionally with a gift on occasion if he's in mood. Usually a last minute thought of a gift he looked for did 15 min. Then he pats himself on back as if he worked hard for the year and sits back. U have it easy. The sex isn't the greatest either and he could care less about pleasing.. he's not even fat and works out but it's lazy af

      I believe i has heard from one Doctor on YT regarding narcissism that to actually be diagnosed with the actual condition a person has to meet certain criteria and, for example, if there are 10 signs that a true narcissist has they have to have at least 8 to be deemed a TRUE NARCISSIST....can't remember exactly word for word BUT I am a RN but my area of study only gave me a semester in Psych so I know our dear Doctor here can fill us in. And I just wanted to agree with this comment and that my ex husband too has a some good qualities but I Def noticed the narcissistic narcissistic ones after about year 3 or 4. Of course he was exhibiting them all during our marriage AND BEFORE....I just did not know what I was seeing. Narcissism was covered very little in nursing school. I will say tho that once the "mask" slipped WOW did it slip and the man became out of control. The RAGE part of it....was like OUT OF THE BLUE ONE DAY! Something I had always did, never even said he had a problem with it...till THAT DAY! I guess I will never know what THINGS were put into motion for him but we were never the same.

Or maybe some like to date married men.

  • @susanfernandez5817
    @susanfernandez5817 3 месяца назад +2

    Thank you Kim for this video. Everything you said is true. I was a victim of childhood SA and emotional neglect. I got married very young at the age of 20. I was pregnant and I wanted to provide a stable and loving home for my child and so I really thought that my husband was the answer to everything. After a few years the cracks started to appear in the relationship but I felt trapped because by then I had 3 children. I kept trying to make it work because I didn't want to fail my kids and I ended up having 3 more children. I love all of my kids so much but I was well and truly trapped in a toxic marriage because he never changed, he never kept any promises and he did exactly what he wanted to do all the time. He used every tactic that you mentioned on me to keep me in my place. I stayed way too long (37 years) until I finally left 4months ago. Now I am totally alone, at least that's how I feel now because my adult kids do not understand what I have been through and what I have put up with. They know that their father is very controlling but they don't have to live with it like I did. They just wanted me to stay and keep the family together. They hardly ever contact me to see how I am doing. It's early days so I have hope that they will eventually adjust to the situation. I feel heartbroken and alone at the moment because my dreams and wishes have been shattered when I woke up and realised that my husband is a narcissist. I am slowly healing myself by watching videos on this subject and I hope to seek out therapy eventually when I get my own car.

    • @Elegance191

      We are here for you Often just telling your story to others helps most. I realised that the best friend, the love of my life that I married 30 years ago and have 3 wonderful boys, has been hating me for 20 years. To make it worse, his mom supports her cheating son. She is adamant in destroying me and my sons except one, the youngest, at 23, has an anxiety and sleep disorder. Poor him, he is an empath too and he finds it very hard to deal with the situation.

I feel for you and your son's and the younger one who struggles the most because of his deep empathy and everything else that he deals with. It is usually always the empaths who are abused and suffer a lot in life. I pray for you and hope you heal soon and can eventually see that you are a stronger person because of it.

  • @fairplayer7435
    @fairplayer7435 Год назад +9

    I totally get the message of this video. The points are valid and real, and the main thesis that our childhoods can set us up for failure in relationships is a very powerful truth. My opinion is that in the future, many people are going to find themselves refusing to choose a lifetime partner all by themselves. They will require some type of extensive vetting, not different to how marriages of old centuries used to be conducted. Some people will draw comfort in the knowledge that their ultimate 'choice' was made by others in their own best interests. There's just too many covert dysfunctional people in our world today and we can't have healthy societies when they keep destroying otherwise capable and good individuals. Peace.

    • @blowitoutyourcunt7675
      @blowitoutyourcunt7675 6 месяцев назад

      The type of extensive vetting you imagine was done in previous centuries is crazy because it absolutely does not have a parallel to what we're talking about. The vetting previously was how much Dowry can they get, how many donkeys does she bring into the marriage etc - comparing those standards to the standards that we want in our mates now is absolutely ludicrous.
      A bigger difference would be explaining to young people the difference between dating and courting, dating is for fun, courting is getting to know each other with the intention of marriage.
      Too many young people fall into relationships/marriages because they were dating, without courting/marriage even in consideration, let alone agreeing on what their future would look like, where they would live and how they would collectively raise their children etc etc
      I think we just need to be better communicators with each other, of our wants, needs and boundaries.

    I think so many of us struggle with is he just really selfish or is “something” bigger than that.
    My ex husband (father of my children) was narcissistic “lite.” I don’t think he had necessarily cruel intentions, I got the cruel behavior in my remarriage and subsequent divorce.
    I just didn’t know what narcissistic abuse was 30 years ago and certainly didn’t understand the connection to my upbringing. I do know if you don’t start taking a super hard look at your childhood and the dynamic that what was imprinted on you(my unpredictable rage filled father- that I adored-behavior was explained by him being hungry or hot or tired and anything other than complete compliance - you were labeled as too sensitive or ungrateful. I became a MASTER people pleaser. Healthy people are uncomfortable around a super pleaser. It feels off. But, a manipulator will gulp it up. ) you will keep unconsciously seeking what you are trying to avoid.

Just yesterday he capitulated on something that was a rule he had set in stone, and gave me so much grief for expressing hurt and confusion, he just could NOT even contemplate being held accountable for ditching his own rule, instead I was the bad guy for questioning why he would capitulate for something I used to do that he would berate me for! Then woke me up to say sorry and have sex with me, and I once again have to dust myself off and be warm and affectionate and let it all slide off my back. Anyway, thanks for letting me rant a little here. Thanks for your insight, Dr. Sage.

    My husband is a narcissist that gaslights me constantly. Case in point today he locked me out of the car so I hitched a ride home with a random lady. He built up some narrative in his mind that I whored myself out to some dude to get home. I didn't let him add me to his delusional reality. I am great at calling his bull. I will not be cowed. Of course he tried to flip it around that I was the ass for not dealing with his power trip and got my own way home.

But over text message he was disgusting, tried to manipulate me into thinking i will always be alone and that he will tie me to his bed to use me with bdsm stuff until i bleed. It made me feel sick and i blocked him. Gag! I will never ever let such psychos into my life again.

    Sounded like this was personal for you. You described a “simp” of a guy for a husband. Both husband, wife, and children have needs, wants, desires, and boundaries. . If there is compromise, balance, and respect, in all directions, then a little more or less of something can be navigated.

    Thank you for this video. I journaled the red flags in the beginning and all the way through, it took 2 years to finally leave which was tremendously hard to do. We got married in 2019 and I left in 2020 during Covid. A part of me was recognizing and journaling and another part of me desperately wanted the facade life. I thought he was the best and the worst husband at the same time. His dysregulated rages really triggered my childhood trauma from my dysregulated step mom. I left all the gifts there. I didn't know it was narcissism I've learned so much these three years since I walked out.

  • @Rose-fc2xv
    @Rose-fc2xv 7 месяцев назад +1

    Still living with one! Not sure if he is exactly one but definitely has a character trait. When the baby was born he was irritated at the baby and me and often did not like me breastfeeding the baby. In the 19 years of our marriage, anytime we argued the fault is always mine! His anger goes out to control when he is upset! But yet he is very nice to everyone else, whether it be church, family etc. He is nicer to me as long as I don’t irritate him so it’s confusing if he is narcissistic or not.

    13:33 now I understand why my "father" was spoiling me with toys. It went as far as I could even demand this and that. But this was little compensation for the mind control he was doing to me. I knew it was fake but there was a why in the back of my mind that was not answered.

    This might sound somewhat cynical but it's not, facing reality is helping me a great deal. Fact is we still live in a patriarchal society so no wonder there are more men who are narcissistic, though that does not mean there are no narcissistic women but it's a secondary effect to the patriarchal society we are living in.

    It's been a big challenge to work out my interactions with PW NPD, but I'm getting there. My ex husband was a neglectful covert narcissist, he breadcrumbed and gaslit and future faked control over me. I was required to do all the financial, emotional, and physical work while he dictated our activities to the last detail,. When his financial control got blatant, and I was literally coming home from work each day to lie on the bed crying, that's what it took to get me thinking about leaving him. At first we were just going to separate, until he revealed what his idea of separation was (seeing each other regularly). He got very upset when I asked him to spend time with me doing things I actually like, after doing it once he got mad and gave me the silent treatment to punish me until, in his words, he could 'forgive' me taking his time away from comic books and his grad thesis. Oh, and Magic: The Gathering. Just ugh, if my family of origin had taken responsibility for themselves and their toxic behaviours, my life could have been much differnt.

    I’m a single mom of twins ( from my previous marriage) first husband was super drug addicted and narcissistic as well . Second time I got married with much hope and happiness but unfortunately the second one is far more higher in narcism . He degrades me every now and then making me feel like I’m unworthy . I’m useless mom useless wife ( actually a salve who just need to clean and cook and giving him blowjob as well as taking care of his bby from his previous marriage )
    Even after doing everything for him he says I’m a stupid idiot I’m not intelligent as he was thinking and im selfish . I’m u ungrateful to him because I have mentioned that I’m tired and I need appreciation love care . Unfortunately I’m dying now . I’m so broken so broken and so alone . Second marriage and this narcism . I wish I was forever single rather than loving a narcissist

      Seems like the common denominator in this situation is you. There are basic things required from a woman in a relationship. Kindness, support and sex (stay fit). If this is provided a man will give more in return. Wake up! Get therapy and self reflect.
