Ever heard of a collapsed narcissist? Do you know a narcissist who lives in a role of being a perpetual victim? Someone who hates everyone in the world, or at least a whole bunch of people, because somehow, those people are the cause for his or her misery? Have you noticed that often, these kinds of narcissists seem to be completely alone in the world? They have no regular source of supply, and they just seem to be taking out their hateful energy on the world at large?

Sometimes, a narcissist just sort of loses their ability to obtain sources of narcissistic supply. This can happen when the narc's family and friends have just had enough and one-by-one, abandon them.

In some cases, the narcissist loses their ability to attract new supply because they get older and lose their looks, or because they become so self-involved that they forget how to do the whole love bombing thing - or any combination of these things.

But a narcissist really NEEDS that supply to continue to exist, right? So what happens then? Do they become a real person, or do they just sort of lose it?

When a narcissist is unable to obtain narcissistic supply, what can you expect? Some people call this a narcissistic crisis or a collapsed narcissist. Whatever the label, it's a big problem - and often, not just for the narcissist, but also for the people around them.

A collapsed narcissist is a narcissist who has not been able to obtain the proper narcissistic supply - as in, a person to help bolster his or her self-worth, self-esteem - value as a human being. In essence, they feel like they've been denied the very supply they need to exist - their proverbial life's blood. This leads to narcissistic injury, and as the collapsed narcissist writhes helplessly in the pain of not getting what they believe they're due (whether it's meeting some big goal or simply getting the admiration and praise they feel they rightly deserve), their whole world feels like it's falling down around them.

The narcissist loses self-esteem and their self-image is nearly erased. They begin to self-devalue and self-doubt. They literally hate themselves to the point that they project this self-hate on to everyone else around them. Since everyone "hates" the narcissist, they reason, the narcissist may as well hate them back.

What the heck do narcissists want from us? What do narcissists want from relationships? Is it ever possible to be enough for a narcissist?

People with NPD (narcissistic personality disorder) and other cluster b disorders are confusing and while they seem charming and dynamic, they are also sort of a double-edged sword - one side is their public persona while the "behind close doors" version of the narcissist is often a whole other person - one that those closest to the narcissist are often the only witnesses to.

But what the heck do they want? That's what I'm covering in this video - in detail.

This 2-video compilation focuses on the Narcissist's Manipulation Tactics, including Gaslighting, Denial & Deflection. The psychology of cluster b personality disorders is abnormal, to say the least - and if you consider these kinds of manipulation ploys, trauma bonding is not a shock, right?

Cluster B personality disorders are a categorization of personality disorders as defined in the DSM-IV and DSM-5. ... They include antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder and narcissistic personality disorder.

Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental disorder in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for admiration and a lack of empathy for others. But behind this mask of ultraconfidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism.

noun: manipulation; plural noun: manipulations

1.

the action of manipulating something in a skillful manner.

"the format allows fast picture manipulation"

2.

the action of manipulating someone in a clever or unscrupulous way.

"there was no deliberate manipulation of visitors' emotions"

Adult Children of Narcissists - Narcissistic Abuse Recovery - Were you raised by a narcissist? What are the effects of codependency in childhood and of narcissistic parents (with NPD or even just narcissistic tendencies)? Many children of narcissists spend their whole lives thinking "I wasn't good enough," and wondering if their mothers/fathers/other caregivers could and would always be better than they.

The faces of parental narcissism have a number of effects on the children - and as they become adult children of narcissists (ACON), their personalities are formed around this sort of misunderstanding of themselves as seen through the eyes of the narcissistic parent.

"Narcissists have two faces -- the one they wear in public, and the one they wear at home," according to LightHouse.org. "Only those close to the narcissist have any idea there is more than one face. And the narcissist's children know best of all, because children - those who have the least power - are the ones the narcissist allows him or herself to be the least guarded around."

So, kids of narcissistic parents are forced to pretend in public that all is well--all the while knowing that when they get home, things will be different. In some cases, they dread going home because the difference is so significant.

"Narcissistic parents lack the ability to emotionally tune in to their kids," writes Karyl McBride, Ph.D. "They cannot feel and show empathy or unconditional love. They are typically critical and judgmental."

Many kids of narcissists express the same kind of frustration: everyone thinks their narcissistic parent is a saint--the best person ever, McBride says, noting that "while at home their children suffer in silence with their parent's tantrums, disinterest and put-downs -- this is clearly NOT the most wonderful person if you truly know them -- not even close."

Your Clutter Could Be a Symptom of Your Narcissistic Relationship

Clutter can make you feel stressed and leave you less free time to enjoy your life. But mindfulness can quickly allow you to cut through the clutter (even more than cleaning). Most people hold on to clutter because they assign the possession some kind of emotional significance.

A broken toy wagon might still be in the closet because it was the last toy that a loved one gave a person before they passed away. So the owner of the wagon associates the love with the wagon.

One of the reasons that so many people struggle to get rid of things, both physical and emotional, is because the decluttering process can be painful and overwhelming - especially when you look at it as a whole.

Mindfulness can help you get rid of clutter because it allows you to maintain your focus on one area or one issue at a time that needs to be dealt with. You’ll be able to simplify your life, keep what needs to be kept and let go of what you need to be free from.

Focus only on what truly matters to you. By using mindfulness to help you clear out the clutter, you’ll get rid of stress, too. The things we keep and the emotions we won’t let go of can be reminders of what was.

You might think that if you don’t address them, then you don’t have to deal with these things. But clutter hovers and you sense it in your subconscious. When you let mindfulness help you declutter your life, you’ll be able to maintain a better ability to focus in all areas of your life.

You’ll feel better emotionally when you let go of things. You’ll also be able to find things when you need them instead of searching and getting stressed when you can’t find something.

Plus, you won’t spend as much money buying things that you forgot that you already had. A big benefit with using mindfulness to let go of the clutter is that it does more than give you more room in your home or in your office.

It allows you to let go of the mental and emotional clutter so that you’re able to have a more improved mindfulness, too. For the best results, go through every area of your life one portion at a time and clear out the clutter.

If you’ve always found it too difficult because you think the task is too big, give yourself fifteen minutes a day to focus on the clutter. When you break a task down, you’ll find that it’s easier to do.

Do you constantly have relationships where you feel exhausted because you're trying to rescue your friends or your lover from one catastrophe after another? You may be codependent, and if you are, it may be time to let go, and start looking after yourself for a change.

When each person learns to take full personal responsibility for his or her own feelings of pain and joy, they stop pulling on each other and blaming each other. When each person learns to fill themselves with love and share that love with each other, instead of always trying to get love, the relationship heals.

Learning how to take100% responsibility for your own feelings is one of the essential ingredients in creating a healthy relationship. This means learning to be conscious of what you are feeling and being open to learning about what you are doing to create your own feelings, instead of being a victim and believing that others are causing your feelings. Your feelings come from how you treat yourself and others, from what you tell yourself and what you believe about yourself and others, rather than from others behavior. Blaming others for your feelings will always lead to major relationship problems.

Why not start today by taking your eyes off your partner and putting them squarely on yourself? In reality, you are the only one you actually have control over. You are the only one you can change.
