How to Stop Being Narcissist | Dr. David Hawkins

Most people will tell you that there is no hope and no treatment for narcissism. And if we’re talking about the pathological disorder NPD, I would agree there is probably very little likelihood of change. But most people who are labeled narcissist or NPD don’t actually have the disorder. Rather, they are somewhere on the spectrum, with some to many traits. This is the population we primarily work with here at the Marriage Recovery Center and we get a lot of flak for our position on this topic which is yes, treatment for narcissism is possible. We’re not saying it’s always possible for everyone. In this video, Dr. Hawkins talks about what it really takes for successful treatment and real change to occur.

Dr. Hawkins and his team of experts offer education and professional training as well as treatment for narcissistic and emotional abuse.

I was an extremely people pleaser and then I stopped, sending me straight into be a narcissistic person. I will change for myself and the people around me

[vriticant]

i thought this video was about how to stop being a narc and not how to decide if you want to put up with the narcissist. as a narcissist im disappointed

[ovoglmd]

So is the recovery a 12 step program? I'm in narcotics anonymous and I learned in my 4th step that I have narcissistic traits and once I learned that I went to work on myself. I learned my part in any given situation and learned to put myself in the other person's shoes and look at what my behaviors did to them. A big part of my recovery is to understand rather than being understood.

I have autism, and people have always chalked up how i act to that, but if im honest with myself, im a narcissist

[nessiewhite]

Raised myself I was neglected always had management positions and I can’t be inferior in a relationship. Help

[-chantelle-]

I feel like this is only telling someone how to tell if someone is getting better, not showing someone how to get better

[arthurbalcita]

Sometime it also depends on how they really want to change or not, because some knew they are narcissist but still deny they are not. By Amelia

[wwechampion]

Do narcissists just wake up one day and come to a realization that they are a narcissist? And from there, would they even want to change? And then if they decide to change, will their efforts to change make them a more normal person?

[MarioGonzalez-bvhp]

What do I need next to do for recovery

[bmarchbanks]

How does a child grow up into a narcissist person? Children don’t know it they learn it from someone in the home

[jayjay]

[sharonmagdalenebooysen]

[oscarortizgonzalez]

Whats the contrary of people pleaser? Is it narcisism?

[brightpage]

Is narcissism contagious? Like reactive abuse?

Obviously, it's still abuse and maybe healthier boundaries are in order... But...

Can people get like more hormronaly narcissistic at different times of their life, like when PMSing?

[tearthangel]
