Transcript
- 0:00What is going on, beautiful people?
- 0:02Today we're talking about six ways that a narcissist will
- 0:06enforce their will upon you. If you're new here, my name is
- 0:10Lee Hammock. I'm a clinically diagnosed
- 0:11narcissist. And welcome to another episode
- 0:13of The Narcissist Code. Welcome back.
- 0:32Welcome back. Welcome back, folks.
- 0:34Yes, yes, yes. I'm shooting in the car.
- 0:36I'm living in my car now. You guys got me.
- 0:38I'm kicked out. I'm living in my car.
- 0:41I'm just joking. I'm not living in the car.
- 0:46Just working on the book out here.
- 0:47Y'all I found solace writing my book in the car.
- 0:51If you want more information on the Up forthcoming book, click
- 0:54the link and join my newsletter. But yeah, six ways that a
- 0:58narcissistic person will try to punish you or enforce their will
- 1:03upon you. Six different ways.
- 1:05Yes, yo, I know there are more ways.
- 1:08So if you if you could think of a way.
- 1:10Did I miss did I know I'm going to miss some?
- 1:13Drop it in the comment section your way.
- 1:16That can help other people out. You see what I'm saying?
- 1:18Like understanding that space right there could help a lot of
- 1:21other people out within this dynamic and whatnot.
- 1:23So the 1st way is sleep deprivation, keeping you up at
- 1:29night, not allowing you to go to sleep.
- 1:33That's how they put, that's how a lot of narcissistic people
- 1:35will punish you and they'll punish you and then force their
- 1:37will upon you to try to try to get their way by just refusing
- 1:41to let you go to sleep. Sleep deprivation is known in
- 1:46some, in some societies, in some cultures as sleep torture.
- 1:50Because that's what it is, because people need sleep,
- 1:53right. You need sleep to survive.
- 1:55Human beings need sleep to, to live and thrive on.
- 1:58Correct. So a lot of these times in a lot
- 2:00of these situations, that's how it goes.
- 2:02That's what it that's what needs to happen right there.
- 2:04You know what I mean? So it's just in these spaces a
- 2:06lot of people deal with, like, you need to go to sleep.
- 2:09So if you're trying to hold a narcissist accountable or you
- 2:11hurt their feelings or they feel like they need to get that point
- 2:14across, they will refuse to let you go to sleep.
- 2:16Especially if you got to get up in the morning to, you know,
- 2:19some of y'all might be night owls and just be like, bring it
- 2:22on. I'm not letting up, you know.
- 2:24But some of y'all have to get up and go to work in the morning.
- 2:25You have to get the kids ready for school in the morning.
- 2:28You have to get up and do stuff in the morning.
- 2:30Like, you can't afford to be sitting up here arguing.
- 2:32You got to get, you got to be up at 6:30.
- 2:34You can't afford to be sitting up here at 3:45 AM fussing and
- 2:38fighting about a text message you saw on their phone.
- 2:40You see what I'm saying? It's just tough.
- 2:43That's one way that they do it, though.
- 2:45This is one. This is one of the more serious
- 2:47psychological and physical ways that they will do this to you.
- 2:53They will absolutely, like, run amuck and do doing this type of
- 2:56thing to you right here. Just to mess with you, to
- 2:58dominate your mind, to keep, to keep you going.
- 3:01A certain type of way to control you, to make you know, to teach
- 3:05you a damn lesson, for lack of a better word.
- 3:09You know what I mean? Because that does happen quite a
- 3:11bit. I know a lot of y'all.
- 3:13You know, if you if sleep deprivation were used against
- 3:15you, where they kept you up at night, where you had a test in
- 3:17the morning, where you had to go to school in the morning,
- 3:19whatever, whatever you had to get up for.
- 3:21Well, even if you didn't have to get up, you were just tired.
- 3:23Even if you don't have to get up in the morning, a lot of people
- 3:26want to go to sleep. You still want to go to sleep,
- 3:28You know what I mean? You still want to get some sleep
- 3:30in, even if you don't have to work in the morning to things
- 3:33like that. So I get that.
- 3:34I get that part of it as well you know.
- 3:36So a lot of people sorry I raised my own sitting outside
- 3:39and started raining. So a lot of people have to face
- 3:42this dynamic have to face this this type of you know, mindset
- 3:45and this type of mentality because it goes into it.
- 3:48So sleep deprivation is 1. The next way I have it written
- 3:52down narcissistic rage sorry for something.
- 3:56I don't know what what that out narcissistic rage.
- 4:01If most people, not everybody, because not all narcissists will
- 4:04rage on you. Like just like not all
- 4:05narcissists will use the sleep deprivation technique.
- 4:09A lot of narcissists rage on you.
- 4:11The yelling, the screaming. They're throwing things.
- 4:14They're hitting themselves. They're trying to hit you.
- 4:16They're punching a hole in the wall, starting the break thing.
- 4:20You know threatening you. A lot of narcissistic people use
- 4:23this method right here because it's it's damn near tried and
- 4:26true. You know they know anger.
- 4:30They know anger can. A lot of people can use anger to
- 4:33control a lot of people. You can use anger to manipulate.
- 4:36A lot of people can use anger to keep you in place, to put you in
- 4:40place. You're afraid of that anger.
- 4:41You're afraid of that reaction. You won't do certain things
- 4:45right. You won't do certain things
- 4:47because you're afraid of how that narcissistic person may
- 4:49react to you. Correct.
- 4:51That happens too. That happens quite a bit within
- 4:53these spaces or within these dynamics.
- 4:54So yeah, there's something you have to run.
- 4:55There's something you have to think about as well, you know
- 4:58the next way silent treatment. The silent treatment is akin
- 5:04it's almost the opposite of the narcissistic rage, right?
- 5:07But the silent treatment is them.
- 5:10They're just they're just not talking to you.
- 5:11They might acknowledge your existence, they might see you
- 5:14and look at you and things like that, but they're just like,
- 5:16damn, they're just not speaking to you.
- 5:18They're not communicating with you in any type of way, even the
- 5:20even the necessary stuff. They're not even communicating
- 5:23the necessary things to you. I call the silent treatment and
- 5:26I'm not. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only
- 5:27person who just calls this. I call it silent rage because
- 5:31they're still mad as hell at you.
- 5:33They're just not exhibiting it in a different in such a loud
- 5:37way. You know, silence can be loud,
- 5:39but they're not yelling and screaming at you.
- 5:40They're being super passive aggressive and just, you know,
- 5:43just like pretending that you don't exist type of stuff right
- 5:46there, you know, because the next mode, the next, the next
- 5:49thing I want to talk about is ignoring you.
- 5:52Because ignoring you can be part of the silent treatment, but
- 5:55that's more it leans more towards stonewalling.
- 5:58Like damn near acting like you don't exist at all.
- 6:00Stonewalling when they just damn near you are ghost to them.
- 6:04You can be in the same house. They don't even acknowledge your
- 6:06existence. The silent treatment.
- 6:08Sometimes they acknowledge your existence by making eye contact
- 6:10with you or something like that, just to let you know that
- 6:12they're doing it. Stonewalling is damn near
- 6:14pretendingly you don't exist. Like your presence does not
- 6:17matter here. Like you don't exist.
- 6:19You might as well be Casper, the friendly impact right here
- 6:21because you don't exist to them within this space or outside of
- 6:25this space that happens so much, right?
- 6:28That's one of the things that consistently happens a lot of
- 6:31the times within these dynamics within these spaces.
- 6:33So that's what I'm just trying to tell people, like keep it
- 6:35moving forward to keep things going forward, to keep things,
- 6:39to keep grinding. Like I say, look, even if they
- 6:42give you the solid treatment or if they're giving you the
- 6:46stonewalling you ignoring you, if you have to say something to
- 6:49them, write it down, text it to them, make sure you say it out
- 6:53loud because they will be held against you later on, especially
- 6:55if it's something that they that they need to hear, say it to
- 6:58them. So you make sure they just say
- 7:00it and don't just don't expect an answer back because they
- 7:03might not respond to you, they might, they might not answer you
- 7:05back in any type of, you know, feasible way.
- 7:09So it's just like this is new situations right here where you
- 7:12got to think about it from that perspective right there, from
- 7:14that way, right there. Like, they might give you the
- 7:16silent treatment. You know what I mean?
- 7:18They might, like I say, they might be ignoring you or giving
- 7:20the silence treatment, but just say what you need to say because
- 7:22they can protect you later on. They might get mad and just try
- 7:25to say you didn't say it to them, but you didn't say it
- 7:27because they're being childish. But that's part of it.
- 7:29Just get it out. Make sure you text it.
- 7:30If it's something that important, make sure you text it
- 7:32to them. Make sure they they can see it
- 7:34or you said it out loud, you know, just to protect yourself.
- 7:37Like even sometimes, if even if you do that, it doesn't really
- 7:39matter anyway. Yeah, the next thing is
- 7:43withholding intimacy. Punishment, Tom.
- 7:48No cheeks, No clapping of no, no, thou shall not clap thy
- 7:55cheeks. Because dying is being held
- 7:59accountable for their actions, and those actions are holding me
- 8:02accountable. Those actions are making me feel
- 8:05small. Those actions that you've
- 8:06exhibited are making me feel a certain type of way.
- 8:09So this does happen too, right here.
- 8:11They will withhold intimacy from you, you know.
- 8:15They will absolutely will. Like they'll Rev you up and just
- 8:19don't touch you. I'm not just talking about
- 8:20clapping of the cheeks, I'm talking about any type of
- 8:22intimacy, emotional or physical intimacy.
- 8:25They'll begin. They'll pretend like you don't
- 8:27exist in the bedroom or it just within any other type of
- 8:30relational space, Like you don't exist to them within this
- 8:33dynamic. You don't exist to them within
- 8:35this space. Like you pretty much damn a
- 8:37specter here, you know, like they'll treat you like it as
- 8:40well. Because this is the IT is a it
- 8:42is a very warped mindset to be a narcissist sometime because they
- 8:46will, they can and will destroy you a lot of the times because
- 8:49they feel entitled to be doing this.
- 8:51They feel like this is part of this, the space that they fall
- 8:54into, This is part of the dynamic and they feel like they
- 8:57control you. They own you.
- 8:59They, you know you belong to them in some way, shape or form.
- 9:03That's always going to be a part of it or a piece of it right
- 9:06there, you know. So that's why I try to tell
- 9:08people, try to commit to people that this is going to continue
- 9:11to happen. And my wife's friend just showed
- 9:13up and I'm out here in the rain. They don't see me.
- 9:17But yeah, that's part of it right there.
- 9:19So I tell people just, like, if they withhold their intimacy,
- 9:22like I'm not saying that they if they, if they're not clapping
- 9:24your cheeks, they might be clapping somebody else's.
- 9:26But a lot of times that's how it goes.
- 9:28You know, they might be, you know, sleeping with somebody
- 9:31else if you've been sleeping with, like, if they're not
- 9:32sleeping with you, typically they might be trying to sleep
- 9:35with somebody else. Just, I'll just put that out
- 9:36there for you right there to understand that you know.
- 9:38And last but not least, exhaustion.
- 9:42They try to exhaust you by, to punish you.
- 9:44Let me go back real quick. Not only would they withhold
- 9:46intimacy, some of them will forcefully take intimacy from
- 9:49you, you know. And you, you know what I mean by
- 9:51that, by that. Some of them will with forcibly
- 9:54with to take the intimacy from you.
- 9:56They'll remove the They'll take it from you.
- 9:57If they want it from you, they'll take it from you.
- 9:59That's another way they punish you or enforce that will on you.
- 10:02And that's horrible. Yeah.
- 10:03Even if you, even if you married, you're not.
- 10:05You're not that property. They can't just take it from
- 10:08you. You know what I mean?
- 10:09The last word, like I said, would to exhaust you.
- 10:12They just won't leave you alone. They will just keep belittling
- 10:14you, keep just hammering away at you, keep beating you down
- 10:18emotionally or sometimes physically to get you to give in
- 10:20to their demands. Like especially if y'all have
- 10:22broken up or there's no communicate you, you've removed
- 10:26communication. They will just keep trying to
- 10:27pop up on you to try to force this conversation with you.
- 10:30They'll keep reaching out to your parents or their own
- 10:32parents or whoever your friends, your family members to try to
- 10:35force the conversation with you. They will absolutely try to
- 10:38exhaust you into getting their needs met, whatever their needs
- 10:41are. It doesn't have to be, you know,
- 10:43actual needs. It can be financial needs.
- 10:45It can be housing needs. You might have a old
- 10:48narcissistic bum. They're trying to exhaust you
- 10:50and they're giving them a place to live.
- 10:52They try to make you feel guilty.
- 10:53And it's dynamic right here, too, in this space.
- 10:54They're going to make you feel guilty about certain things
- 10:57right there, you know, don't let them exhaust you.
- 10:59Like they will make you tired. You're like, well, I'll just
- 11:01give in. I'm tired.
- 11:02It's easier to it's easier to just give in to them, you know,
- 11:05because if they exhaust you one time and they know that it
- 11:07works, they'll keep going back to doing it again and again and
- 11:09again because why wouldn't they, you know?
