TRUTH NUMBER ONE IN MY PERSONAL OPINION:
If youre staying in a relationship with a narcissist because you think you can change them,
You can't.
And you will lose everything giving them every bit of your energy. You'll forget who you are because all you want to do is make them happy. You want validation that you will never get.
Loving them harder will not change them.

Narcissists don't fall in love with the person themselves, they fall in love with the potential of controlling that person into becoming yet another extension of themselves. It's sick.

They like you as a possession not as a person.

When I finished watching this video, I actually experienced a panic attack (which was like 10 minutes ago). I went exactly through this, everything fits. Fortunately, I was able to get out a couple of months ago. People around me noticed but I was just so fucking controlled, man. The girl that is my best friend now, helped me with the final process of the breakup (my ex moving out of our apartment). I was just so overwhelmed with that shit that I had to spend 5 nights at my parents' house till her things were out. I guess I could say that I wish that it didn't happen to me. But, actually, I'm happier, healthier, my attittude elevated incredibly high, and most importantly, I became WISER. I am kinda grateful that it happened and at least it was not that much time.
It can be done. Just acknowledge it and be brave enough to abandon that person. It's not worth it. I swear that you will feel better really soon.

Wow this has left me with more questions than answers, the main one being: how do you know if you yourself are a narcissist or if your partner might be?
I can easily imagine all the behaviours described here resulting in similar behaviour as a reaction from the other party.

I’ve said this once and I’ll said it again
cannot be a youtube psychology video without demonizing NPD

It is important to avoid making generalizations about people with Cluster B personality disorders, as they are a diverse group of individuals with varying experiences and personalities. While some people with Cluster B disorders may engage in behaviors that are considered harmful or destructive, this does not mean that they are inherently bad people.

Cluster B personality disorders are characterized by difficulties with emotional regulation, impulse control, and interpersonal relationships. These challenges can lead to behaviors that may be perceived as manipulative, deceitful, or aggressive. However, it is important to remember that these behaviors are often a result of the individual's underlying struggles and not necessarily a reflection of their character.

With appropriate treatment and support, many people with Cluster B disorders can learn to manage their symptoms and develop healthier relationships. It is also important to recognize that people with Cluster B disorders are not defined by their diagnosis. They are individuals with unique strengths and weaknesses, just like anyone else.

Here are some important points to consider:

Avoid labeling or stereotyping: Avoid using terms like "good" or "bad" to describe people with Cluster B disorders. These labels are overly simplistic and do not capture the complexity of these individuals.

Focus on behaviors, not character: When addressing problematic behaviors, focus on the specific actions rather than making generalizations about the person's character.

Recognize the impact of the disorder: Understand that Cluster B disorders can significantly impact an individual's thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Emphasize empathy and understanding: Approach individuals with Cluster B disorders with empathy and understanding, recognizing the challenges they face.

Support treatment and recovery: Encourage individuals with Cluster B disorders to seek appropriate treatment and support their efforts in managing their symptoms and improving their well-being.

Remember, judging someone based on a mental health diagnosis is unfair and inaccurate. Instead, focus on understanding the individual's unique experiences and challenges, and offer support and encouragement as they navigate their mental health journey.

“Narcissistic love” sounds quite contradictory

[escherichanja]

Narcissists love their isolated view and their judgemental nature more than ever a person, so they play the victim, everything someone get angry because of their questionable view of others. But that´s how it is, when narcissists say what they really think about you, they don´t get flowers, that´s for sure, but they prefer to interpret it the way it makes them feel normal.

[ianlongman]

It wasn’t until the end of the video that I started to see how my last relationship aligned with this so well. Couldn’t be more true to my situation.

[escherichanja]

Imagine a person who prefers to think that you can understand a situation or a person just with an analytic view and an isolated picture, without ever care about the personality of a person or an open mind, just always see people in a toxic or childish way, when things come stressfull or emotional and you know how toxic people or narcissists see the world.

Love that is transactional or conditional is just manipulation masqueraded as love.

[BeelzeKid]

evryone is lovable ... even if thay have narci traids or if thay are a straight up narci... you are lovable you hear me ?! some narci traids are even normal

[kozo]

Sounds like a career. You are asked (actually ordering) to separate your feelings from jobs, which means you usually will do the things you never value, for someone you never wanted to do to, for something the society deems higher than love, which makes you think that is money even worth more than love and what if you choose a different path/believe, will you turn up getting abused?

[escherichanja]

Narcissists are just quicker, and so they think they are better, as if prejudgment is ever better than really care to understand others or a situation and not just try to make it look as if the one who is upset must be the one who is on the wrong track.
