Projection is the closest thing to a confession that you'll ever get from a narc. If you listen to them talk long enough, they'll expose themselves. Everything they're accusing you of, is what they're either doing or planning to do. Protect yourself and go no contact if you can. Sending lots of love & light!!

Amen!!! For decades I couldn't understand why my husband always called me "manipulative" and a "liar" when I knew I wasn't, and no one had ever accused me of those things in all my life! But I knew he was these things, so my head was spinning! Narcissism is evil!!!
Thanks, Rebecca, for these "Narcissism 101" videos (and ALL of your videos!); they are so life-saving!

amen, rebecca. well before i knew about narcissism and narcissists i was on a phone call with a potential romantic interest. he was someone i knew casually. i was a new widow. he also knew my late husband and even came to his funeral. i didn't understand his line of conversation but he said to me "you seem needy." without hesitating i responded calmly "i'm not because my needs have always been met", meaning i had the best husband. in hindsight i can see that my response stopped him cold. he never brought it up again. needless to say i caught on to him because i always felt off balance around him. he was unlike anyone i'd known because of the discomfort i felt around him. i'm grateful for divine intervention that ended that relationship before it got off the ground. he gradually revealed all the narcissistic traits we've all come to know. following my gut saved me.

I recommend your SLAY program wholeheartedly. My sis went from not knowing where to start, to creating her strategy, negotiating in mediation and getting the results that she wanted. She is moving out with her girls in to a new place this weekend.

Amen! I told him to stop projecting his feelings onto me and save it for his mother. It's none of my business what you think of me!

[suzukigirlis]

AMEN! Again, it never gets better, just worse. 35 years later.. no matter the conversation, IT IS always you. If you would just shut up, I was told, we would have no problems..

[charlesgordon]

They say, that people are crazy, a lot!

Projected so much on me, made me feel like a cinema screen!

[danilosantos]

Amen!!
My one used to say that I was desperate for attention...when he’s the one who always want to everyone look at him...a complete narcissist!!

I know a narcissist who projects by accusing other people of “being emotional”. He intentionally says things he knows will piss them off. When they show any frustration, he’ll act like their reaction is bigger than it really is. Acting all high and mighty, he’ll condescendingly say, “You need to calm down. You’re getting emotional.” The next thing he says in the same breath, “I don’t let my emotions get the better of me, ” as if he has his $—t together, making him superior. That claim is total BS. He can’t handle any criticism whatsoever and when he is justly criticized, he’ll have an emotional outburst by blowing a gasket.

A year ago, my NPD girlfriend, the love of my life, accused me of being passive aggressive. I spend days studying passive aggressiveness and happened to stumble on some articles and videos on narcissism. Until then, I had no clue what a narcissist was. Sure, I decided maybe I was passive aggressive at times, so I went to a therapist, who I told I thought my girlfriend might be a narcissist. The therapist gave me a reading material on how to treat passive aggressiveness, but nothing on how to respond to a narcissist. I spent a year thinking i might be able to "cure" my condition and "cure" my girlfriend. Finally I started dating other women and broke it off with girlfriend. But still financially strapped with a house that we had bought together.

Hi Rebbeca ! This is really exactly happening with my life right now! Projections are played against me ! You are doing fantastic job by teaching people

[chandrachauhan]

My narcissist calls me a Narcissist. Lol.

[semperoccultus]

AMEN, and I always confronted this person with the projection. Last time, the person's response was "pfft, projection" and then silence. Some of the projection was really ugly stuff.
Gaslighting was also a big one. The person once says to me, "leave me alone". I texted back that I will honor the person's request and leave them alone. The immediate response back was "manipulation". I asked how honoring the request was manipulation. No response. I'm currently 4 days out of the 1 year and 2 months relationship. Whew!

[anneervin-mccartney]

AMEN-had this done to my kids and myself for years. Thank you for your Facebook group- I finally have people “who get it”!

[bmoremom]

Thanks to their projections (accusations are confessions), I started to investigate and found out what really is happening. What normal healthy adult accuses their partners or family of "emotional abuse, reactive abuse, being crazy, covert narcissism, adulteries, etc." They are always playing the victim or hero, never the bad person.

[metaphyziks]

The most ironic type of projection, “you need a therapist and you need help.” They bring this up after you state anything that shows their inappropriate behavior. Funny how bringing issues to light warrants psychological help. 😂😂😂😂 when in reality they’re the ones who have zero empathy for you and literally fake their way through life. Interesting…

[lindamoore]

Amen!!! No conversation is simple. It's all totally messing with my mind.

[miacrabtree]

Amen! Thanks. Had to send this one. Getting our leverage together. You really save people. I mean, quite literally. Dealing with a malignant narc who is guilty of wanting to harm. Thank you. Thank you

[rhondalynn]

Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you for your knowledge.
