6 Ways to Handle a Narcissistic Dad

6 Ways to Handle a Narcissistic Dad. In this video, we share six ways to deal with a narcissistic dad. You'll learn tips and tricks that will help you handle the narcissistic abuse from a narcissistic father.

It’s really hard to admit that your father is a narcissist. We often deny such a hard truth because it’s a hard-to-swallow pill. But denying the truth won’t make the situation any better or different. Denial only paves the way for more toxicity in your relationship with your narcissistic dad.

A narcissistic dad, especially a pathological one, is a possessive person who constantly makes every situation about him. The whole family revolves around him, and he constantly seeks attention and domination. While your dad might not be a pathological narcissist, it’s still hard to deal with a person with narcissistic traits. The worst impact a narcissistic father can have on you is lowering your sense of worth, making you grow up with low self-esteem.

So, how can you escape the toxic trap of a narcissistic dad and still maintain your psychological integrity? This is what you’ll find out in this video.

You shouldn't be empathetic to your father. He's an adult man and he chose not to deal with mental health. Don't take off his responsibility for that, he chose to let his family to suffer painfully.

[karenaiime]

Learning the truth made me realize that I am not the problem.

[andrewgarcia]

I literally just told my Dad to Quit being a narcissist and he got hurt and tried to throw it on me, saying " no its you." They crumble like a damn crouton when you confront them. Don't be afraid of you're abusive parents. Call them out on their bullshit and stand on what you say. Cuz if not the cycle will still continue.

[JoeMotionVideos]

This one is hard to watch. I decided at the age of 13, that I would never treat my family like my dad. That's when I started to grow, but my true peace came after he died.

[moldyvoldy]

I don’t think love and support works because my dad actively refuses to admit that he has a problem or just flat out refuses to do anything about it. "Well, I guess I'm just an asshole. That's just who I am." Actual words he's said to me.

[UndercoverTherapist]

It is even more sad when you are dealing with a narcissist family member because it is not easy to just up and leave them. So sad!

[joedohn]

How do you escape?

You leave. There's no other conflict resolution with a narcissist. You love yourself and leave.

[she_sings_delightful_things]

My father is a grandiose narc and my ex is a vulnerable narc.
It's been a hell of a ride 💔

[XTS]

Honestly the best way to deal with a Narcissistic parent is to leave, but if you can't leave then ignore them, the silent treatment drives them insane. Be neutral to all of their actions, just like you weren't there to talk to, etc. etc.

[carlosgarciahernandez]

If you have a narcissistic parent, LEAVE!!!!

[hienienguyen]

my father is just like this, and it's horrible to have a father that is just so vain of himself. it's very bothersome. i am glad that i am realizing that i stood up for myself, and i won't put his thoughts into myself. i will never married someone like this

[chilistacos]

yeah but my dad doesn’t seem to accept himself to be a narcissist he’s selfish, stubborn and flat out nasty. it seems like this isn’t ever getting any better :/

[trolltroller]

Your video is more about reasoning, there is no reasoning with them. Simply stay away from them, and do not facilitate to their needs. Put a full stop regardless of what they say or think.

[ParulSharma]

When he said "you have 50% of his DNA", not gonna lie that was a HARD SLAP ON MY FACE...

[Cute_Maxi]

This is pure magical thinking... being kinder and more sympathetic is not going to help you AT ALL. There's only one way to handle a narcissist, no contact.

[WolverineWarrior]

My father will threaten me into lying to my mother and will try to threaten me into doing whatever he wants. He also takes away my ability to do self care as i don't get to play games, go outside, and i try and try to meet his expectations but whatever i do he will just set the bar higher and say that that was his expectation the entire time.

[nikobellic]

don't take the empathy advice if you're dealing with a abusive father cos the whole your dad loved you bs will only make you feel like the abuse is your fault when it isn't!

[angelhuff]

My dad had almost nothing to do with me my whole life. He seemed really calm about it. I disliked him, and knew it was his fault that he abandoned me, but I do not know if he had all the traits of a narcissist. Maybe he was a sociopath? He seemed at peace about being a liar too. Beware of someone who seems very calm, but is silently creepy as well. The calm may not mean safety. He did not bother to give me a loving mom. To him, that was not important. It was like he functioned in some other reality that does not exist. I do not know if my comment will help others, but there it is.

[markrichards]

My dad was an alcoholic, a lot of the same characteristics as a narcissist. I was really angry about the verbal abuse, neglect, detachment growing up. I'm in my 60s. My fiance was perplexed by my lack of emotion when he died, but I'd already let go years ago, with the help of therapy. I was a blubbering mess when the dog died. But the dog was a faithful companion for 16 years. My father was a harsh, often angry person I never really got to know. I hope he's at peace, but I really miss the dog.

[PQRS]

I guess, I am not alone in this weird fight with my narcissistic father.😖😟
