Number 1: When Narcissists WANT You To Leave Them (The Reverse Discard Explained)
In this video, I explain the “reverse discard”. When a narcissist emotionally gets rid of you, treats you horribly, and pushes you to end the relationship so they can play the victim and move on fast. As a clinically diagnosed, self‑aware narcissist, I walk through how they disconnect from you, rage, nitpick everything you do, and then say “You broke up with me” to justify a new partner, a fairytale romance, or an affair that’s already been waiting in the wings. You’ll learn why they still try to control you after you leave, refuse to let you move on, and expect you to stay single while they start a whole new relationship. If you’re wondering whether you should “go along” with a reverse discard, I’ll talk about when leaving is healthy and why you shouldn’t stay where you’re clearly not wanted—while still protecting your legal and safety rights. Go where you’re wanted, not where you’re merely tolerated, and protect yourself physically, mentally and emotionally.All My Links (Coaching, Courses, Merch): https://link.me/mentalhealness Book a Coaching Session Here - ⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness

Number 2: Covert vs Overt Narcissism Explained By a Diagnosed Narcissist
In this video, I break down the main differences between an overt narcissist and a covert narcissist, two faces of the same disorder that show up very differently in relationships. Overt (grandiose) narcissists are loud, attention‑seeking and openly entitled, while covert (vulnerable) narcissists are more introverted, sensitive, passive‑aggressive and often hide their self‑importance behind fake humility or a victim mentality. Drawing on clinical research about grandiose vs vulnerable narcissism and my own perspective as a diagnosed narcissist, we’ll compare how each type rages, manipulates, plays the victim and reacts to criticism. If you’ve ever wondered why one narcissist brags nonstop and another seems shy, anxious or “too sensitive,” this video will help you see the shared core and the surface differences. You’ll leave with clear red flags and language to describe which type you’re dealing with and why both can be equally damaging. Book a Coaching Session Here - https://link.me/mentalhealness

Number 3: What to Do When You Miss Your Abusive Ex
What do you do when you start missing your narcissistic ex, even after everything they put you through? In this video, Lee Hammock explains why it is normal to miss someone who hurt you and why that feeling does not mean you should break no contact. Learn practical ways to process the urge to call, text, check their social media, or pain shop, including writing down the truth, creating a video diary, and using voice notes. Missing them is a feeling not a sign that they deserve another chance. You can miss them and still choose yourself Contact me Here - https://link.me/mentalhealness

Number 4: What Is The Best Way to Communicate With a Narcissist
How do you respond to a narcissist or toxic ex when you have to communicate with them? In this video, Lee Hammock explains how to filter hostile emails and text messages, identify important coparenting information, and avoid getting pulled into long emotional arguments. Learn why short, bland, factual responses can protect your peace and reduce opportunities for manipulation. Lee also shares ways to use AI, skimming, or a trusted third party to identify essential details without absorbing every insult. This is for people who must stay in contact because of children, work, business, or other shared responsibilities.

Number 5: Why an Abusive Person Breaks Up With You First
Why do abusive people suddenly break up with you, discard you, or move on as if you never mattered? In this video, Lee Hammock explains how a toxic or narcissistic person may leave when they are losing control, being held accountable, facing consequences, or seeking new validation. The discard can be used to punish you, create confusion, provoke you into chasing them, or make them feel powerful again. Their decision to leave does not erase the abuse or prove you were not enough. Learn how to stop chasing closure from someone who may use the breakup itself as another form of control.
