Struggles of a Self-Aware Narcissist

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tune in to hear the perspective of a self aware narcissist. That’s me - Ben Taylor a narcissist in recovery trying to promote awareness, healing, growth and change. I do that by these videos on here, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook.

Platforms I am on:

When you’re live I can see it seeping in but I see growth each time and you’re doing so much for us I do appreciate your hard work both for yourself and others that are hurting❤

Thank you so much for your courage and consistency Ben. You are doing so great. As a codependent empath being for decades with narcissists I have much of the same narcisstic traits. We are picking this up when we are honest. Much selfpartnering work to do. Wish you and your family the best.❤

ALL that i heard sounded like stuff EVERYONE goes through to some degree, at some point or another ...

Thank you for your openness. I needed this information.

It's known that narcs have cognitive empathy. Does the work you do on yourself though ever lead to developing or increasing any emotional empathy?

My God the parallels just without the awareness. We are "not allowed" to have any discussion of substance out loud in the house per his rules since 2013. But he has left my texts largely on read since 2018. The excuse is cant have a discussion in front of the audience because it will upset the audience or they will but in, which to an extent I agree, and to an extent you don't teach your kids how to communicate and fight fair by avoiding it in their presence. Balance. And of course the silent treatment is just a control/avoidance mechanism. If you pretent there is no problem then there is no problem right? So wrong!
