Your No Contact vs the Narcissist's Ghosting and Silent Treatment

Your No Contact vs the Narcissist's Ghosting and Silent Treatment - Lately, I've been seeing a lot of comments from viewers who are worried that they might be the narcissist in their relationship. Most of the time, these comments are on videos related to the silent treatment, ghosting or things narcissists do or say in any given situation. Is no contact the same as ghosting? Is no contact just like the silent treatment? Does no contact make you a narcissist?
One of the most common concerns is whether going no contact makes you a narcissist. People learn that the silent treatment and ghosting are typical narcissistic behaviors, and they equate this to the way we treat a narcissist when we go no contact with them.
I get why they feel this way - it's a little confusing. In both the silent treatment and in ghosting, the narcissist ignores us and/or doesn't respond when we try to reach out to them. And that's exactly what we do when we're using the no contact method to heal ourselves.
So what is the difference here? How is no contact different from the silent treatment and ghosting? Are we just as bad as the narcissist for choosing to end contact? Does this make us "one of them?"
Well, that's exactly what we're talking about today at QueenBeeing.com - If the silent treatment is a narcissistic manipulation tactic, does no contact make you a narcissist? And what are the differences between the silent treatment, ghosting and the no contact rule?
