Transcript
- 0:00Narcissist want you to reach out first.
- 0:03Wait a minute. I'm not, I'm not telling you to
- 0:05do that. I'm not saying break no contact,
- 0:08but there are a lot of narcissists.
- 0:10They want you to be the first one that reaches out.
- 0:12They want, they want you to be the one that breaks no contact
- 0:15and comes back to them, comes begging back to them before a
- 0:18few different reasons and those reasons or what we're going to
- 0:20cover today. Of course, if you're new here,
- 0:23I'm Lee Hammock. I'm a diagnosed narcissist
- 0:25myself and welcome to another episode of the Narcissist Code.
- 0:28Let's get it. Boom.
- 0:46Welcome back, folks. Welcome back, welcome back.
- 0:49The first episode of Mental Illness Podcast is in editing
- 0:52right now. Yay.
- 0:55Now. Seriously.
- 0:56But we want to drop. We bought this drop.
- 0:58We want to drop, baby. We want to drop.
- 1:02Yes, I am dead excited. I promise you I am.
- 1:06But that's the way it goes. Yeah, I'm serious.
- 1:08Most narcissistic people, when the relationship ends, when
- 1:12whatever is going on between y'all ends, they want you to be
- 1:16the one that reaches out but why Lee?
- 1:18I know like, but Lee, I don't want to be the one that reaches
- 1:20out but why should I reach out for them?
- 1:22I'm not telling you to reach out to them.
- 1:24That's not what I'm saying at all.
- 1:26I'm not saying hey, you should reach out to the narcissist
- 1:29because this because of that. No, I'm not telling you to do
- 1:31that. What I'm saying is there are
- 1:34quite a few narcissistic people that absolutely want you to be
- 1:37the one that breaks the no contact but why Lee?
- 1:40Because because one of the main reasons is because if you reach
- 1:45out to me first, I'm whatever I have done to you, it's OK, you
- 1:51validate me. I'm searching for that
- 1:53validation. As always, most narcissists and
- 1:56toxic people are searching for some type of validation,
- 1:59validation in some way, shape or form.
- 2:02I'm looking for it. I need it, right?
- 2:04I look for it. I need it.
- 2:05I want all I want it. I need you to give it to me.
- 2:09And and so in order to for me to get that validation, you
- 2:12reaching out to me let's me have it.
- 2:17It really does. And that's why I tell people if
- 2:20they end it or if you end it with the relationship ends and
- 2:25you are done with them, fight the good fight to not reach out
- 2:30to them because they're salivating and and waiting for
- 2:33you to reach out, right? They're, they're salivating.
- 2:39I'm waiting for you to reach out because they are looking for
- 2:41that validation. Sometimes it is in these
- 2:44situations right here. There are a ton of narcissists
- 2:48that know what they've done wrong.
- 2:49They know whatever they've done to you is horrible.
- 2:52They know I don't care what they said.
- 2:54They absolutely know whatever they've done to you is horrid.
- 2:58It's horrible. There's no coming back from it
- 3:01unless you reach out to me. If you reach out to me, I, I can
- 3:05come. I can, I can come back from that
- 3:08because you contacted me, didn't you?
- 3:11Yeah. So with the fact that you
- 3:13contacted me, I got you now, right?
- 3:16I have you right where I want you.
- 3:19There is some, there is coming back from it.
- 3:22If you reach out to me, there is coming back from it.
- 3:24If you contact me, there is coming back from it.
- 3:27If you're the one that breaks no contact and break it, kicks the
- 3:29door in or whatever the case may be, and you come back into my
- 3:32life, there is a chance that that that's how it goes.
- 3:38And that's why I fight the good fight.
- 3:40When I'm doing my one on ones over Zoom, which I still do at
- 3:43mentalillness.net, I tell people they are waiting on it.
- 3:47They are waiting on it. They're waiting for you to
- 3:49validate their bad behavior because that's what happens if
- 3:53you reach out to me after I've done something horrible to you.
- 3:58If you reach out to me first, you just validated my bad
- 4:01behavior. You let me know.
- 4:02It's not really bad behavior because if it's such, if it's so
- 4:06bad, then why are you contacting me?
- 4:09Like, if you're an abuse victim, why the hell are you talking to
- 4:13the abuser, right? I abuse you, but you're talking
- 4:16to me. That doesn't make sense to me.
- 4:18You see what I'm saying? That's where it goes right
- 4:21there. Is it really that bad?
- 4:24If you reach out to me and they'll post it online?
- 4:27Imagine you. Imagine you sharing your story
- 4:29about abuse, right? You a victim of abuse, domestic
- 4:33violence, toxic of relationship dynamics, narcissistic abuse,
- 4:36emotional abuse, whatever it is, right?
- 4:37You're sharing your story online.
- 4:40You expose your abuser. Lee Hammock did this to me,
- 4:44right? Lee Hammock lied to me.
- 4:46He cheated on me. He put his hands on me, whatever
- 4:48the case may be, right? You say all this stuff about Lee
- 4:50Hammock, right? And all of it very well might be
- 4:53true. Let's say you say all of this
- 4:55stuff about me. You post it online.
- 4:57You, you, you don't smear Cam at me.
- 4:59You share my you share the truth, you expose me, but then
- 5:02you contact me apologizing. You just say hey, sorry for
- 5:05whatever I did. You contacted me.
- 5:08Guess what? I screenshot that and I put it
- 5:11online. I do.
- 5:15You just validated me. I thought, hey guys, I thought I
- 5:18was abusive. If I'm so abusive, why is such
- 5:22and such reached out to me? If I'm so horrible, why is so
- 5:26and so contacting me? What's the deal here?
- 5:29You see what I'm saying? What's the deal?
- 5:30What's the deal here? If I'm such a bad parent, such a
- 5:34bad father, such a bad this, such a bad dad, then why are you
- 5:38talking to me at all? What's since then?
- 5:40You see what I'm saying? Got you.
- 5:42So sometimes you're validating them and they can, they can
- 5:45embarrass you and start the smear campaign.
- 5:47Imagine you contributing to your own smear campaign because
- 5:51that's what so many people do. You contributing to your own
- 5:54smear campaign. That's literally what you're
- 5:56doing. You're contributing to your own
- 5:58smear, which sucks. Yeah, this sucks.
- 6:01You contributed to your own smear campaign.
- 6:03You contributed to the person that's lying on you, Huh?
- 6:06You see how it goes right there? You contributed to me abusing
- 6:09you. To me.
- 6:10You know what I'm saying? You contributed to it.
- 6:12And this is not me. Victim blame.
- 6:14I know. I I I I see me.
- 6:15I I think y'all like Lee. You're tiptoeing in the waters
- 6:18of victim blaming, Emma. No, I'm just trying to wake you
- 6:21up so you don't do it. Victor blaming it, said you
- 6:24deserve to do this. You deserve for this to happen
- 6:26to you. Why did you do this?
- 6:27Why did you do that? You can't do that.
- 6:29You know what I'm saying? I'm trying to stop you from
- 6:31doing that. I'm trying to I'm trying to stop
- 6:33you. You know what I'm saying?
- 6:35But that's what that's that's what ends up happening.
- 6:37Y'all, Another reason why narcissists want you to reach
- 6:40out first is their egos. The ego is so inflated ego.
- 6:46Y'all will see those, those cartoons where you got the the,
- 6:48the character right? You got the little character,
- 6:50the little tiny character that has like the little tiny body in
- 6:53a big ass head. That's how narcissists look
- 6:56right here. Y'all.
- 6:57This is like how narcissist looks, that the tiny body, this
- 7:01big ass ego head, tiny body, tiny frame, huge bulbous ego.
- 7:09Just imagine. Huge bulbous ego.
- 7:14I got one better for you, you know what I mean?
- 7:16Some of them, some of them, they got to refocus.
- 7:19Somebody like this big ass bulbous head.
- 7:23You see what I'm saying? It's that silent basketball,
- 7:25right? We we'd be hooping down here,
- 7:26We'd be hooping downstairs. Y'all, this is my downstairs
- 7:28area. But yeah, y'all, that's what
- 7:31we're talking about right there. The egos are so big that it
- 7:34won't let them reach out to you. I've done this.
- 7:37So this, I'm a victim of this right here.
- 7:38I'm a victim of if narcissism makes victims like I was the
- 7:44victim of my own narcissism because even though I've done
- 7:46something wrong, I would, I would want to apologize, but my
- 7:49body, my ego would not let me apologize.
- 7:53As crazy as that sounds. My ego, my own, my very own ego
- 7:59would not let me apologize for the stuff that I was doing, the
- 8:01stuff I had done. Like I would want to apologize.
- 8:04But even, yeah, even when I've been working on myself these
- 8:06past eight years, even when I work on my been working on
- 8:08myself, sometimes my ego tries to overpower everything else and
- 8:13not let me apologize for what I've done wrong, but not not let
- 8:16me correct my behaviors. It's still there.
- 8:20I'm still doing the work right now.
- 8:22I think there's some people kind of get mixed up on my journey a
- 8:25little bit because I still am doing the work.
- 8:28I still am working very hard and doing very doing so many
- 8:31different things for myself that it doesn't go away.
- 8:35You know, when I talked to some people one-on-one, they'll just
- 8:37say you, yeah, you're you used to be a narcissist.
- 8:39I'm like, yeah, I still have a personality disorder.
- 8:42It does not go away. I'm clinically diagnosed.
- 8:45I'm here with it. It does not disappear.
- 8:47It does not go away. You know, so I have to tell
- 8:51people straight up, hey, I'm still a narcissist.
- 8:53It's that it has not disappeared.
- 8:55It has not went away. So it's very important to just
- 8:59to, if you a narcissist trying to work on yourself, don't try
- 9:02to get rid of it. Just try to change your
- 9:05behaviors, try to understand and develop new new improved
- 9:09behaviors, new improved reactions and things of that
- 9:12nature as opposed to being self-destructive and other
- 9:16destructive. Because narcissists are not only
- 9:18self-destructive, they are other destructive because like when we
- 9:21blow up, we blow up every, we create like this debris field.
- 9:24When we blow up, we blow up everything else around us.
- 9:28It's not just a self implosion, it's an explosion.
- 9:30It's an implosion that leads to an explosion.
- 9:33It triggers explosions. We implode, but we trigger
- 9:36external explosions. So that's what is going on right
- 9:39there, y'all? The narcissist's egos are so
- 9:41huge or so monumental or so crazy, it gets very difficult to
- 9:45just hold on to it, right? It really is.
- 9:47That's one of those things that's very hard to just get to
- 9:50reconcile. Very hard to get rid of, very
- 9:52hard all around y'all. So I would say I say that to say
- 9:56this right here. Don't reach out to him like if
- 9:59they've wronged you, even if you are doing something that we were
- 10:04you want to be the one to apologize, Don't do it.
- 10:07I'm telling you, if, especially if you're trying to get, if you,
- 10:11especially if this person wants to get back with you or y'all
- 10:13trying to get back the other, you're going to lose.
- 10:17I know y'all have these different religious beliefs or
- 10:20these different personal beliefs that you might, you make, you
- 10:22might feel like you have to do this.
- 10:23You don't have to. Goodness gracious.
- 10:27You know how many people I tell how many people I say, don't
- 10:29reach out, don't do this, don't do that.
- 10:30And they still do it and they end up back in the toxic
- 10:33manipulative situation and they're sad.
- 10:35I'm like, look, you, you where, where were you expecting now?
- 10:38They wanted you to do this, you gave into it, and now they're
- 10:41being, they're doing exactly what they thought what they said
- 10:43they would do. You know what I'm saying?
- 10:45This is not a victim, layman. This is me trying to wake y'all
- 10:48up so you don't become a victim or you stop being a victim.
- 10:52You see, this is what happens right here.
- 10:54This is me trying to wake you up so you stop the victim.
- 10:57Stop going into the victim mode right there.
- 10:58Stop going into the situations where you will be a victim
- 11:01again. And then the more you go back
- 11:04into a toxic relationship, the less people view you as a
- 11:06victim, especially people from the outside looking in.
- 11:09They think you're choosing it. They're like, well you made the
- 11:12choice, you went back, everybody knew you'd get your ass beat.
- 11:15You still went back into it. That's your fault.
- 11:20You see what I'm saying? Be with y'all.
- 11:22Gotta keep this one short and sweet.
