    When you confront them and they feel exposed, they punish you with the silent treatment .

    When there silent that’s when they are usually up to something.

    Their bad energy (esp when in silent scheming mode) will cause physical problems- hormonal issues, chronic fatigue type symptoms, etc.
    If you seem to have energy when they aren’t around and many symptoms and health manifestations resolve by being away from them, then there’s a good chance you’re indeed an empath. Being in the environment of bad energy- you feel heavy, weighed down, depressed, irritable, fatigued, tense, sense of impending doom, unmotivated...
    Being in neutral or good energy- you feel lighter, you can smile and laugh, motivated, hopeful, creative, energized, alive. 😌

      I had never felt like that in my life until my last girlfriend. My gut was in pain like ive never had in my life. I was so emotionally drained... I became so depressed i thought i was going to die. Bad energy... I couldnt make out why i was feeling like that. Then i had dreams constantly that she was texting another guy, i could see the text but could not read them because it was blurred. reocurring dreams that was giving me signs. I found out it was true.

      advice from my own exprices with normail persons
      if narc gives you silent treatment think clearly is narc trying to punish you for something you never did to them or narc lost his fake personily narc is always showing you
      but give narc his own silent treatment don't go and talk to narc about your feelings
      just clear your thouhts and start new by blocking narc on your phone/facebook pages
      emails don't waite for narc to change just trying to move on prenting like you never mete them before

      @@crystalneacole3849 I can't say it will get better. But as long as you keep reaching out to him, all it's doing for him is stroking his ego more and more. It amuses him that you can't quit calling and texting. It makes him feel good and you're feeding his need for supply. And just when you start to not think about him every second, he'll start calling you. Just to keep you strung out on his ass. I have made watching videos like these my new obsession. Everytime I think about him, I watch another video. Also I think back to the many times I was on the floor using my arms and hands to guard my face from his hands. And begging him to please not hit me anymore. And through watching these videos I know now that if I was to go back it will only get worse. And I can't afford another worse. Because the next time I will be in the hospital or in the morgue. I know I'm gonna go eventually. I refuse for it to be by his hand. Stay strong, block his ass, and distract yourself and keep yourself as busy as possible. I have honestly been doing a whole lot of retail therapy and caramel frappe's from McDonald's!! LOL but that's just my temporary Band-Aid.

    I actually helped my Narc get her Masters degree due to my knowledge in certain areas she was weak in. However, I was blind to who she was in that regard concerning her being a Narc. We both are talkers but she would dominate the conversation. I was strong with the written word and found that very beneficial with what turned out to be a war of wits. I hated what was happening and perplexed where this battle was coming from. In the later part of the relationship I came across the term gaslighting and that struck an ahh haa moment. Question were beginning to be answered and I started to understand the situation I was in.
    The whole situation broke my.heart because the narc had a child in which I was instrumental in her development. The.dog took time for me to embrace because I don't fancy small dogs. However, the dynamic in the family unit gradually became very toxic....
    I returned home after 7 years.and my hand was forced to slam the door on her. I can't put the whole scenario in a better context because it's complexities- only to say- goodbye to her. It's been over 2 years and not a word.
    I do speak with her mother from time to time concerning my dad but neverna word about the Narc. Is the mom a " flying monkey"? Dont know
    I did have reservations on keeping contact with the daughter and the mom but over two years there has been no inquires on the well being from anyone concerning her. She treated her family bad as well...
    My slamming the door on her after my discard said volumes but it cost me a large sum of money owed to me. It didnt matter.... My sanity and peace of mind was in the balance. Caring for my dad in his 80s and struggling with Alheimers gave me the fortitude to say enough is enough.

She just needed a favor from me. She betrayed my trust, deceived me, lied to me several times. She thinks the earth revolves around her. And everything should be done her way.

It took me 24 years to finally figure out a way to leave and yet I was terrified. I finally did and filed for divorce and of course, all hell broke loose. anyway, it's been 16 years and I have finally realized what had happened to me thanks to videos like yours. Thank you by the way. I do suffer from major depression and PTSD, however, I am striving to be the person I truly am. I've had to do this on my own, with help from videos like yours and finally I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you for being there!

    This was so powerful that just listening to it gave me physical nausea. It’s sickening to realize that I’ve attracted nothing but narcs. The very thing I ran from as a child which was having a mother who was a malignant narcissistic... and not properly dealing with this firsthand trauma led me to attract more& in some instances worse. Even though I’m years away from my last bad relationship, it’s still a painful reality. 😣 I suggest that anyone who’s carrying baggage from childhood issues, please get help. Don’t become your own worst enemy. Give yourself a chance to conquer this once& for all. There’s nothing like a peace of mind v/s a piece of mind. Best of wishes to all who watch this video. 💕

    Thank you Dr. Bryant for breaking down the differences between coaching and counceling and the benefits each one gives. This helps us manage our expectations as well as it helped me to understand, I need counceling first. What’s deep is I took myself out of trauma state because I don’t feel those overwhelming addictive feelings that I felt when I first went nc last yr. However, I went back four times since then, the abuse was worse and I still kept going back. I still suffered from PTSD when I first came out had no help and no support and was still with the narc off and on during this time. Been with them for five yrs and still struggling to move forward. Never dealt with what I discovered was the issues in the first place and never dealt with all the trauma. But because I wasn’t feeling some of the same feelings I felt I was good. Wow!!!! Trauma really is something and we equate it to feelings and emotions vs our pathological decisions, choices and psychological barriers! I’m so grateful I heard you speak today I was truly deceived about being cool just needing some supports. Thank you for helping us to understand what we need and the why!

    Dr. Carmen you are sooooo on point, what happens when it’s your adult child? He and I have always been very close, as a child he felt rejection from his father (who lived in the house with us) but he never felt love from his dad. So me being his mother I tried to make up for the lack of attention from his father. My son the narcissist is very intelligent and handsome I thought that I was speaking into him and lifting him up when I would tell him how intelligent and handsome he is. He hated his dad and sister, but he adored me (at least I thought that he did). Well he had a child, I love that baby with everything in me he became jealous of my relationship with the baby he didn’t want me to hold the baby, he started being mean to me. The babies mother went thru post pardon depression after the baby was born, he then started having an affair with someone else and moved out of the house. Because I wouldn’t turn my back on the babies mother who was going thru depression and cut all ties with her he cussed me completely out!!! told me “F you I told you what would happen if you went against me” i felt like I was having a heart attack. I went to the hospital but thank God no heart attack, it’s been over a year since I’ve spoken to him. He has aligned himself with people in the family that he knows I don’t care for, I love and miss my child very much but I can’t do this with him so I’m trying to education myself on this condition so that I will know how to handle him. Dr. Bryant please advise!

Turns out he's really insecure and preys on women for money and his lifeline. The final straw came when I caught him in a lie and asked for a one week break(he totally wasn't expecting that and honestly I was glad I got a chance to get away from him) after the week he came back trying to manipulate again and that's when he got the door slam. He's been silent ever since. I wonder what bullshit he's swimming in.

    This is true. They dont all cheat. Both my ex's are narcissists. The first was too controlling and unhealthily obsessed with me to cheat. The second was cheating and its the reason I ended it. The whole situation awakened me to the fact that he was abusing me. He denied it and gaslighted me when I confronted him. Then became aggressive and verbally abusive when I wouldnt back down. The second he saw me packing my bags he started "crying" as a manipulative tactic to stop me leaving. I fell for it and stayed...only to see him revert back to his usual behaviour. He began "love bombing" for 24 hours and then switched back to blaming me for confronting him, accusing me of not trusting him etc. Then he started a smear campaign calling his friends to play the victim and complain about how I was "creating stress for him and accusing him of cheating" he told them I was "selfish" and whole bunch of lies. This is when I understood that I was dealing with a narcissist and ended it.

    Best video yet on my experiences from last year to current. After the second discard last May she did her best to get me in legal trouble that didn't happen. I figured, she's hone for good. Then in Feb the hoovers started at my local gym. After a couple of weeks she finally yelled at me to stop coming there, which I wasnt going to do. Then she was gone for a couple of months only to pop back again this time observing my interactions with people I'm now friends with there. Finally she broke the ice with a normal conversation so I responded accordingly. After a few weeks she made a point to rip on me last year stating if it wasnt for her I'd be in jail so dont make her regret that decision. At that point I decided enough and walked away ignoring her there for a week. She eventually asked to talk to me stating my actions bothered her and she wanted to be friends. For the next few weeks she has never been that nice. Having a gf going on a year I finally told her it was wrong we were talking and it needed to stop. She once again played the I hope we can be friends and talk there of which I said let's see. That was three weeks ago and after that conversation I havent seen her there once! I figure she got new supply thus doesnt need me. I still changed up my schedule there so if she does show up less chance of any interaction but I have to admit after all that work to get me back in to disappear like that is really weird. One side not, she moved 45 minutes from me to 10 blocks away thus not hard for her to be in my neighborhood if the situation presents itself. Up until last year I had no idea on any of this and always something new with her. I really wish it would just stop so I can live my life not wondering what's next

    Thats amazing
    I didnt know I was hurting the thing I was married to for 24 years. When he would go silent and he did this crazy thing for years off and on I thought well he doesn't want to talk to me so I wont talk to him either. Best thing I could've done. It saved me from total destruction!
