Narcissistic Friday – April 14 2015

 

Great work on such an important topic. Enmeshment (poor boundaries) is at the core of developing yet another Narcissistic child. The N parent projects their Grandiose Self, their Self- Idealizing self onto the blank slate of the innocent child.  Through extension, and forced identification they are able to get back from the child – mirror effect – Narcissistic fuel to support their own Grandiose Self they had before the child was born.   The most tragic figure in the Narcissus myth is not Narcissus, who dies from his self- absorption, but Echo who dies from never having been loved by Narcissus.  Both never found true Love. These children of Narcissists are simply being enslaved to “Echo” the grandiosity of the Narcissistic parents. A relationship with the Divine is the only way to break free from an enmeshment with either a close N parent, N family system or within a cult-like Narcissistic larger social group.  Some have said that Satan is always trying to destroy our True Identity, our True Selves.  Great work… so glad I discovered your blog. God bless.

 

 Narcissistic Friday Blog

Such a great blog and will definitely be invaluable to those who have struggled to find the Truth after a childhood of duplicity and deception by the Narcissistic Family they were born into.  The three main defences all narcissists use are denial, projection, and rationalization. Remember, every criminal truly believes that he is innocent of any crimes or wrongdoing, well, that's exactly who you're up against here. Wellness finally comes when they can take back their projections, their projected self. Each and every time they are critical of you simply say to yourself what they're saying to me and about me is actually entirely about them.

 Projection is our attempt to split off and disown those unacceptable parts of who we are and convince ourselves that they are actually in somebody else and not us. You mentioned a very common variant of their false self, manipulative defensive strategies by playing the victim role, the poor me role.  Their tale of woe will always be dramatic, embellished and exaggerated in keeping with their essential grandiose self.  Sadly, it was the only way they could get any of their dependency needs to be met in the past. Now, as an adult, they continue to con and manipulate others to get their dependency needs met.   They're always on the hunt for another fix, as they are addicts.  People finally grow up, mature and become adults when they finally bring their dependency needs and lay them before our Lord, then we are at last truly free of all these toxic dependencies in this world, Satan's kingdom,  instead of finding everything we truly need, the fulfilment of all of our dependency needs in God's Kingdom.  Keep up the great work.

NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER - by Dr. Maria Hsia Chang

This is one of the BEST articles on NPD that I have used most extensively over the years. NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER http://www.unr.edu/cla/polisci/famaria_hsia_chang.htm By Dr. Maria Hsia Chang, Professor, Political Science, University of Nevada , Reno mariac@unr.nevada.edu In psychology, personality disorders refer to individual traits that reflect ingrained, inflexible, and maladaptive patterns of behavior that cause discomfort and impair a person’s ability to function--including her relations with friends and family. At least ten distinct personality disorders have been identified, one of which is the narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) that the American Psychological Association (APA) classifies as a “cluster B” disorder. NPD is a highly complex psychological - behavioral syndrome that confounds and baffles those close to the afflicted. Once understood, however, one achieves clarity of vision. Socio-biologists maintain that narcissism is natural f...

Lasting effects as a Child of a Narcissistic Parent

   We never put importance on how important relationships around us impact our personality and our temperament. Weirdly, the relationships we see and experience growing up influence who we will become in our future. No relationship is perfect, including our relationship with our parents. While they may have the best intentions at heart and may want the best for us, they are also bound to make mistakes. However, a parent’s impulse is to always improve and give their child what they need. Away from all of this, some parents promise to care for their children but may end up mistreating them – intentionally or unintentionally. This parenting style can be toxic and can cause immense trauma and abuse. In such a parent-child relationship, parents often lack compassion and are concerned more about their needs than their child’s. Although, there’s not much difference between toxic parenting and narcissistic parenting. Just like in toxic parenting a child can be mistreated, in narcissis...

Psalm 35 - A Prayer of Vengeance and Redemption for my Past Employer - Which I know has already been answered by the Lord - Amen!!!!!!

  Psalm 35 Of David. 1  Contend,  Lord , with those who contend with me;      fight against those who fight against me. 2  Take up shield and armor;      arise and come to my aid. 3  Brandish spear and javelin [ a ]      against those who pursue me. Say to me,      “I am your salvation.” 4  May those who seek my life      be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plot my ruin      be turned back in dismay. 5  May they be like chaff before the wind,      with the angel of the  Lord  driving them away; 6  may their path be dark and slippery,      with the angel of the  Lord  pursuing them. 7  Since they hid their net for me without cause      and without cause dug a pit for me, 8  may ruin overta...
