      ​​@@samarina4truth111I helped care for my late grandmother. It got me separated from my 17 year marriage... No appreciation or sorrow from my mother who's now in her late 70s. In fact she twists it and says i did nothing. Not all the cooking, hoovering, carpet cleaning, dishwashing, wheelchair, lifting, walking with. I basically did everything but personal care. I realise personal care was the hardest.
      I loved my grandma alot. She passed away 3 year's ago aged 96 due to the hospital giving her unessicary opoids, and an earlier hospital visit she was given dementia via being given too much potassium which rendered her in a weakened state the last 4 year's of her life.
      My grandmother hadn't been easy before dementia. She, my mother considered by brother " the clever one". He didn't live up to his potential. It wasn't his fault. There were many misfortunes.
      I was a scapegoat for everything and every decision I made was bad. They insulted my wife ( she wasn't perfect but still), my kid's etc.
      It must be tough for you and you're very brave. You're very decent and I hope you get rewarded for your sacrifice. Make sure you get some respite or it could kill you.

It was feel like I'm trying to get to the sea surface to breathe my father is pushing my head into the water back and when I get so powerful and about to get out of water my mother pulling me into the deep from my foot harder.

    • @alllifematters
      @alllifematters 25 дней назад

      Sometimes people are also coping with a lot... Everyone is like, " it's not ok to be abused as a child but it's up to you as an adult to fix it" and while that is true, is it not ok to be imperfect in this entire world anymore? Is it ok to be mid healing or do you just have to hide your healing and hide your imperfections because you know what? That's not healing. And sometimes there are bad days and coping with situations and still stuck in struggle to survive , so sometimes ppl get tired and we need to judge people not on one moment in time but rather a series of moments and events /chronic behsviors and a lack of remorse
      We also have to give other people some grace today in this crazy world which is very much disconnected from meeting our soul needs and so how does the saying go? It is healthy to not acclimate one self to an unhealthy society? It is good if you are not necessarily successful in this unhealthy society otherwise that means you probably have some degree of unhelpful mental health ... Our society rewards narcissists and we wonder why there are so many narcissists? I wonder what would happen if society started rewarding people not for competition and cut throat business sense but rather how empathic and compassionate or meek and humble a person is? If those are the traits that are the most "virtuous" why aren't we trying to reward those characteristics ?

      @le_th_ Год назад +11

      Long , long ago a website was created that gave friends and family members of Cluster B disordered people a list of 100 common traits and behavior they share. It's called out of the fog.
      About 6-7 years ago, when I first started doing a complete reading of the research and literature on Cluster B disorders, I bumped into a neuroscientist who told me not to both with distinguishing one cluster b disorder from another because they are all various forms of sociopathy. What distinguishes one from the other is what makes the behave like a sociopath. That was a total game changer for me, and free me up to really begin to see these people for what they are.
      It can be hard to imagine that there are people who walk among us who genuinely ENJOY harming others, but they actually do enjoy it.
      What's even harder are when these people are your parents, siblings, and grandparents. You just can't imagine that they would want to hurt you, but some of them savor it. We see it all the time on the evening news, some parents beating, torturing, starving, raping, and stealing from their own children. Sick, sick people.

      Somehow I relate to what you said. I too have attracted toxic people. I have been revealed things about me that I still don’t understand. I know I am a hyper sensitive person(empath?). Since a child, I have answered peoples’s questions with out them saying anything or looking at them. I don’t know I’m doing it unless they tell me. A few people said they noticed something special about me (an Aura?). A few thought they saw a glow like an Angel, the look on their face confirmed it. I always replied “I’m no Angel”. Ironically I ended up with the last name as a “stage” name ….. Angel.
      Another great irony: my ex-husband and I were agnostic. My Son was an infertility Dr’s work. We finally decided we would call him Nathan. Later I looked up the meaning of that name, it is “gift of God”.

    This was my family. I walked away. My dead husband was this way. He lost control when I filed for divorce. He then committed suicide. I have very few people around me because of this reason. I trust very few people because of this and other actions. I trust my instincts more then anything. If your gut feeling tells you something is wrong it usually it. We have a repairman that leaves an uneasy feeling. I did tell the landlord. He does try to send someone else. This person reminds me of my father in the worst possible way. He brings up memories I got past. I deal it the best I can when he has to come.

There is a such thing as intuition and if someone creeps you out there could be a good reason for it.
      In fact I had a tenant who creeped me out and I would never let him in my house to pay rent. Then he moved and it turned out he was a crackhead with so many roaches in his house we had to have an exterminator come 4 times.

Also I have came to the conclusion that "narcissistic " parents sabotage their children lives on purpose because they look at life as a contest/competition that they have to win at any cost.

    Living in an environment where there is a split between love and hate (being resented and hated by my sister for existing, and hated and resented by my father for asking questions and being curious), it creates this unavoidable trigger with people that at some point, you know they are going to hate you, so you pick people that overtly hate you (at least, I did, until this became too painful and I chose to be alone all the time and hide within myself). I felt like the shittiest person for the longest time because I was afraid to love someone for the fear that I would switch on them and hurt them (and I do think this has happened before, and I have no subconscious control over it, so I end up losing feeling at all and leave). It's taken several years of intensive and intentional self- therapy (and I started with talk therapy with a lisenced therapist) and writing and releasing unexpressed pain into the ether, just so I can be safe in my body and not attack my mind when I feel it shifting, and instead, follow the flow until I recogize the thought process (assess if it is valid and helpful, or invalid and destructive) or emotional flow (and allow myself to connect to it, understand where it is coming from and releasing it safely). It's kind of like having feral animals living in your psyche that attach at will.

The study distinguished between people who were covered in 25% or less of their body in tattoos and people who were covered 25% or more. 25% or more are often narcissistic, sociopathic, masochistic. Beware of these folks. The two women I'm talking about hooked on to each other quickly and started with the toxic gossip and backstabbing. Now, they're slamming me online and getting people who have never met me or have been to my business to post 1-star reviews about my business. Some are the parents...the enablers. And, yes, the uneasy feeling built up the more I started seeing signs of them trying to take over. I would like to learn how to get these people gone early without setting them off.

    100% this video is so important and clear. These are the people that will use you up and drain your life force energy. They show you one face when they’re really somebody else. They’ll pretend to be your friend when they’re trying to make things bad for you and trying to make you fail.

    I am now acknowledging my mistake as well. Keep giving to someone without reciprocity can be as bad. Sometimes though you just don’t see it when you truly love the person. You try to be too patient and too understanding but they lose respect totally for you.

    When a parent outright has a problem with their adult daughter having a well paying career and believes they know better that their daughter should be a submissive wife when it's none of their business, when a parent sends your awful emails guilting you for not wanting to see them when they were cruel and nasty at random, when a parent texts your husband and you like nothing happens, honestly, this is not a life. I feel like I am living a nightmare that is just getting worse.

      You have to block them from calling you or emailing you or your husband. Also, I would recommend being pro active at work and warning the boss and others that if the parent tries to contact them and spread nasty rumours about you that she is a psychopath that is trying to ruin you. Get in first. If you still allow them to contact you then the question is why? What are you wanting? Because whatever it is you will only get destruction.

    Terrific take~I agree.
    I knew very little about any if this vast topic 10 years ago. I have been researching, studying and on an extensive deep dive the last 5 years and maybe the last 2, feel I have some sort of bearings on the veneer of these disorders-I learned, finally, in my 50’s after exposure almost destroyed the very fiber of my Soul, to start using practical assessments like you are describing.
    Excellent.

    Dr Phil I'm like a nodding dog with a big grin on my face. Family, inlaws, friends, plus.... BATERS suffered them a long time, too long. For me It took some accepting to realise the truth. You are darn right. I make myself abscent from these people now.
    Gotcha... Right back to the early days. Backstabbers. This video short was sure worth the listening. "I feel much better now since I've had clarification". I've been having these thoughts for so many years, and recognise all you speak of and I'm not losing the will to live. I certainly haven't got your indepth knowledge, nor studied like you. You have put your heart and soul into been able to achieve so much it is liberating. You have contributed and done so many worthy things for people since you've been able to. I just thank you from the very soul of my being for all the people you have helped and one's you continue to help and for all the support you give be it on video or otherwise. You're like an Angel that everyone should have beside them. Thankyou from UK

    I used to love scary stories, I found them irresistible and thrilling..I didnt believe they were real..like the boogeyman or the guygooter..so it seemed fun....then i learned how wrong I was...THEY ARE REAL and they will get you . ... Married to my monster over 25 years. Yes, I say monster. I loved him, my barely grown children finally said mama you dont have to live like this anymore you held on till we were grown, leave him. Go! you deserve to be happy....we hurt, for you. That did it, the next time he discarded me, yes the cycle went round and round ..I left and I stayed gone...it was like someone ripped open my chest and murdered everything I ever hoped for, prayed about, dreamed of, and fought for. My life was dead. I drug my wounded bleeding self away, and found a place to try and heal. NO self respect, NO self-worth No self-confidence, barely a shred of my faith, my home, some family, friends...even my dog,most of my treasured items, he destryed things from favorite restaurants all the way to family celebrations..I was bashed, lied about, called every ugly name you could imagine, I was blamed, shunned, pitied, lied to, used, stolen from, screamed at stalked, ridiculed, tortured, thrown out like trash., and I almost lost my life ,by my own hand or his. But..I survived because I stayed gone. i am stronger, look 15 years younger, lost weight, taking care of myself, have a positive support group, have been learning who I am and finding out what she wants. I am more than just okay, in fact freedom from him has given me the chance to do something meaningful in my life..instead of fussing fighting trying failing, falling, misery, tears ,pain and violence (mental emotional and spiritual.) dark hopeless existence that was mine. ... while theres still time. The light feels good...no contact..NO CONTACT..because I know if I do...the monster might get me ..I am always looking over my shoulder because I have this gut feeling that its not about If he will, or if he might..its about how, and when he does and being ready for it. I wont poke him, or provoke him, i wont contact him at all..but I wont hide from him either..i like the light too much. .im just going to wait and pretend he doesnt exist.

    My husband is a baiter. He dresses up for work & acts differently to everyone else but when he comes home he is a psychopath. 10 years I have paid his bills & he tells everyone that he does. He takes the credit for all the work I did. He is emotionally, mentally, physically abusive. Then denies it, "that never happened!" He doesn't even have a bill in his name! Christmas is herrendous, he yells, screams, insults me especially before we go out into public. He is a different person in private vs. who he presents in public daily.

  • @tnutz569

    I agree. I see a continuum, not just Narcissism on a continuum but the whole Cluster-B +psychopathy are all on the same continuum. I would say the Cluster-B is a continuum. A person can move back and forth between Narcissism, Borderline, Histrionic and Antisocial depending on the current environmental factors they're experiencing. Extremely confident little to no neuroticism =factor 1 Psychopathy. Feeling down, depressed, failed too many times =vulnerable narcissism. Low on admirers, need to recruit more= overt. Angry, feeling numb, need danger and excitement to wake them up =Antisocial.
