Transcript
- 0:00What is going on, beautiful people?
- 0:02Today we're talking about the top five moments that a
- 0:06narcissist will ruin in your life if you new here.
- 0:09My name is Lee 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.
- 0:33So yes to top five, top five cumulative moments and times
- 0:38that a narcissistic person, toxic person, will, will, or can
- 0:43ruin in your life and what not. Y'all.
- 0:46So this is going to be tough and what not.
- 0:47I know a lot of people want me to do video like me like me to
- 0:51do videos like this because it kind of wakes, helps wake people
- 0:53up. It kind of helps people
- 0:54understand the the inner workings and the dynamics of the
- 0:58mind of a narcissistic person, right?
- 1:00So #1, the number one moment that I have now is birthdays.
- 1:06Anybody's birthday, Your birthday, their own birthday,
- 1:11your mama's birthday, the kids birthdays, anybody's birthday
- 1:15they will try to ruin. It's just part.
- 1:17Yeah, it's just part of the dynamic.
- 1:20Not not all narcissistic people will ruin birthdays.
- 1:23That's just not that's not how it always works.
- 1:24That's not how it always goes down and whatnot.
- 1:26But that happens quite a bit. Like your birthdays make them
- 1:30uncomfortable. Your birthdays, or a celebration
- 1:33of somebody else's life and their own birthdays, is a
- 1:37celebration of their life. But it can also be just a kind
- 1:40of reminder that they are facing their own mortality.
- 1:44That they themselves are getting older, that the world is finite.
- 1:47You know, time is moving. You're not going to be young
- 1:50forever. So it causes a lot of them to
- 1:52behave erratically. Not get you a gift.
- 1:55Not get the kids a gift. Birthday.
- 1:57They'll make it seem like birthdays are just another day
- 1:59on the calendar. It's not, it's not the actual
- 2:02day you were born. It's just the on the same, the
- 2:04same date you weren't actually. You were born in 1985.
- 2:08It's 2024. You're still celebrating your
- 2:10birthday. Wow.
- 2:10Time to grow up. Or kids.
- 2:12Birthdays, you know, even some of the kids, birthdays and
- 2:15whatnot, they will ruin. It's not always about the adults
- 2:18in these situations. They will also ruin the kids
- 2:20birthdays because a lot of narcissistic people can be
- 2:23absolutely be jealous of their own children.
- 2:25It's crazy how that works out a lot, but it does happen in these
- 2:30relationship dynamics. Well, they absolutely will ruin
- 2:32their own children's birthdays. I know it sounds stupid, but it
- 2:37does happen. And I know some of y'all might
- 2:38be children of narcissists, children of toxic people, and
- 2:41this is what happens within those spaces, that they will
- 2:43ruin their birthdays. Like I said at the beginning,
- 2:46not all narcissists will do that.
- 2:49Some of them will only treat you good on your birthday, some of
- 2:52them will only be good on their birthdays, you know.
- 2:55But a lot of them will absolutely bug out and lose
- 2:57their minds on birthdays and ruin their birthdays and
- 3:00whatnot. That happens quite a bit.
- 3:01And I know, I know, I said I know, y'all know.
- 3:04I talked to people in my comment section.
- 3:05I've done 101's and zooms with people and they will say things
- 3:07like, well, I never, in 20 years I never had a good birthday.
- 3:11It's one of the reasons why because you cannot.
- 3:13It's very difficult to have a good birthday when you're
- 3:16dealing with a narcissistic person.
- 3:17It it, it just is. Y'all.
- 3:18They'll start arguments the night before so they have an
- 3:20excuse not to get you a gift. They'll give it a solid
- 3:22treatment. They'll go cheat on you on your
- 3:24birthday. They'll get they'll they'll buy
- 3:26you a gift, But it'd be like a gift for the house.
- 3:28Here's a new broom set. Here's a new vacuum cleaner.
- 3:30Here's a new stove, something like that.
- 3:33Here's a new air fryer. You know something like that.
- 3:36I got this air fryer. You could.
- 3:37You had your eye on like I had my eye on a air fryer.
- 3:40Well, we have one now, huh? Huh.
- 3:42Something. Something that they themselves
- 3:43can use as well. So you guys think I'll be watch
- 3:45out for that as well. So the second moment I have on
- 3:49my list right here, these are, these are in no particular
- 3:51order. Y'all, because not everybody's
- 3:52going to have these moments. But the second moment is
- 3:56graduations. Graduations.
- 3:59Look, when I say graduations, I don't just mean graduations from
- 4:04college. I know college or high school
- 4:06where people's minds go to when I say that.
- 4:08Right there you can graduate from different programs.
- 4:12You can get diplomas from different programs.
- 4:14You can graduate. You can actually graduate
- 4:16nowadays. You have graduations from pre
- 4:19preschool. You have graduation from
- 4:21kindergarten. You have graduations from from
- 4:23middle school to high school. You say from from Intermediate
- 4:26School to middle school. They will ruin graduations.
- 4:29Y'all because why Lee? Why the why the hell would they
- 4:32ruin graduation? Why the hell would they ruin my
- 4:34my college graduation? Some of them will outright just
- 4:37refuse to show up. Some of them will argue with you
- 4:40the night before, you know. Some of them will absolutely
- 4:42argue with you the night before your graduation to make your
- 4:45graduation their celebration bad.
- 4:47Some of them won't show up. Like I said, some of them won't
- 4:49show up. Somebody won't get you a gift.
- 4:51Somebody won't play. They won't come to the after
- 4:52party or celebrate you or post anything about you online.
- 4:55They will just make it about them like you.
- 4:57It's supposed to be a special moment in your life, a special
- 4:59time in your life. But they take it and ruin it,
- 5:02you know? Because a lot of times they
- 5:04might not have graduated. So they can be jealous of this.
- 5:06They can be jealous of you in this situation because you get
- 5:09in an extra degree. You moving forward in life.
- 5:11You might have made it farther than they did, like that's why I
- 5:13said something as simple as not simple.
- 5:15Something you know, as common as graduated from high school.
- 5:20They might not have done it because of some kind of
- 5:22extenuating circumstances in their youth where they can make
- 5:25it through high school and they can be jealous of you and they
- 5:26can ruin your they can ruin your graduation from high school.
- 5:29They can ruin your associate, you, you getting your
- 5:31associate's degree or your certificate or your diploma or
- 5:34your bachelor, bachelor's, master's, doctorate, whatever it
- 5:37is, You know, some narcissistic people want to hold you back
- 5:40because they didn't make it that far.
- 5:42And they can be jealous of you, so they can absolutely ruin that
- 5:44time of your life as well. The third moment I have it on
- 5:47here, I got this. This is the big one right here.
- 5:49Y'all it says, this is cumulative.
- 5:51This is not just this one word, but it covers a lot of
- 5:54situations. Holidays, holidays.
- 5:57Narcissistic people will absolutely ruin holidays.
- 6:01Not every single one of them. I'm.
- 6:02I'm not speaking in absolutes because holidays again, could be
- 6:06the only time that they're good to you.
- 6:07They could be the only time that they show love, care and
- 6:09affection. But a lot of narcissistic people
- 6:13are going to absolutely ruin your holidays.
- 6:15They just are. That's like, that's not me
- 6:17trying. That's not me trying to just say
- 6:19this is how I feel. No, this is what they will do.
- 6:22They will absolutely make it about them.
- 6:24You know, they'll start arguments the night before, the
- 6:26week before. They'll not get you a gift.
- 6:29They'll get you. Like I said, it's kind of
- 6:30similar to the birthdays. They'll get you a a gift that
- 6:32the whole house can use. They'll re gift something like
- 6:36Christmas time, like they won't get you something but you'll get
- 6:39them something, you know? They'll tell you not to get them
- 6:41something and then when you don't get them something, they
- 6:44get angry. But then when you do get them
- 6:46something, it's not good enough or it's not something exactly.
- 6:49Not exactly what they wanted. And if it even if it is
- 6:51something exactly what they wanted, they'll act like they
- 6:54didn't really want it. You see, it's a y'all.
- 6:57When I tell y'all, it's a very difficult dynamic, living and
- 7:00adjusting and trying to survive with a narcissist.
- 7:02This is what I mean right here. Holiday season, they will ruin
- 7:05if you got to go do something with your you know, they'll
- 7:08disappear during the holidays, give you the solid treatment,
- 7:11Stonewall you, narcissistic rage during the holidays.
- 7:14You know Thanksgiving, they they they might be.
- 7:16They might start a diet during Thanksgiving, like you might
- 7:19cook. You might spend the whole night
- 7:20whole night or whole day cooking, preparing a Turkey.
- 7:25And like the damn near you, you preparing A carnivore.
- 7:28A carnivore. Thanksgiving.
- 7:31And then the next day they say, you know what?
- 7:32I decided to start off this. My, my, my, my.
- 7:35I say I'm giving thanks and I'm going vegan today.
- 7:37So I'm not eating any of this now.
- 7:40They're not eating for the holidays now.
- 7:41They're making everybody else feel awkward for eating meat.
- 7:43You see what I'm saying? They'll make everybody else's
- 7:45situation awkward. Can't believe y'all eating meat.
- 7:47Y'all just and this is their first hour being their first
- 7:50hour being vegan. You know, they just had a burger
- 7:53an hour ago. Now they make it.
- 7:55Now they're all pretentious to make it.
- 7:56Everybody else feel like they're beneath them.
- 7:59You know, they got that pinky finger up making people feel
- 8:01like they're beneath them for eating meat.
- 8:03Now because they just went vegan on on Thanksgiving Valentine's
- 8:06Day. They will rude.
- 8:07They will absolutely destroy Valentine's Day.
- 8:08Valentine's Day is a made-up holiday.
- 8:10Well, I got to teach you something.
- 8:11Valentine's Day I show you I love you every day of the year.
- 8:13I got to teach you something for Valentine's Day.
- 8:16Who cares? I don't care if it's veteran's
- 8:17day. You're not a veteran.
- 8:19Even if you are a veteran, you're not serving there, right?
- 8:20You're not serving right now. You're not doing anything for
- 8:22me. Memorial Day.
- 8:24You still alive? I'm a memorial.
- 8:25Like, you know, No, no, no, no. Whatever it is, y'all I'm just
- 8:27telling you the holiday is kind of irrelevant.
- 8:30Unless it's because why they do this, Lee?
- 8:32Because they narcissists could have experienced some type of
- 8:35holiday trauma, like growing up, they never got the gift that
- 8:38they actually wanted for Christmas.
- 8:39So they can be angry as hell and be mad and take it out on
- 8:43everybody else. You know, gift giving is beneath
- 8:47them. They never received gifts, so
- 8:48they won't they they felt pain during their childhood.
- 8:51And then there maybe in there are those who are giving on
- 8:53holidays. They want everybody else to feel
- 8:55the same type of way, you know, they want.
- 8:57Everybody has to feel the same type of way, the same type of
- 8:59dynamic. So that's what I'm saying.
- 9:01Like in these situations you have to be able to just
- 9:03understand like if you haven't had a good holiday in 10 years,
- 9:08why? Why you thinking of the holiday
- 9:09#11? Year #11 would be different.
- 9:12Why are you trying to convince yourself that year, year 11 is
- 9:14going to be different? You're going to have the same
- 9:16type of dynamic, the same type of situation is going to work
- 9:17and stuff like this. Y'all, they're going to ruin
- 9:19your holiday as well. They just are not like again,
- 9:22not all of them will ruin the holidays, but a lot will.
- 9:25The 4th moment I got on here, y'all is vacations vacation
- 9:28time. They will absolutely.
- 9:31You y'all know this. A lot of narcissists will ruin
- 9:33your trips. I've talked to so many people
- 9:35like we, you know, in the in the beginning, the first few trips
- 9:38are good. But we haven't had a good
- 9:40vacation in 10 years. I don't know why I keep planning
- 9:42them. Because you're damned if you do.
- 9:43You're damned if you don't. Why did you plan a vacation this
- 9:46year? Oh, because every year we go on
- 9:47a vacation, you ruin it. That's because you act.
- 9:49You don't act right. That's because you don't go
- 9:50with. You don't go places I want to
- 9:52go. But then why don't you plan
- 9:53them? You plan it better than I do.
- 9:54What you say it's a it's a you can't a lot of the situation.
- 9:58You can't win y'all Rd. trips. Imagine taking a 10 hour road
- 10:02trip or a cross country road trip and they they give you the
- 10:05silent treatment or stonewalling you or blasting music to annoy
- 10:09you, you know, Or being taking phone calls and doing things
- 10:13that intentionally try to set you off and annoy you because
- 10:15they're feeling a certain type of way you know when they get
- 10:18away from. When narcissists get away from
- 10:19home, they tend to act differently.
- 10:21Y'all not all of them will do this.
- 10:22Y'all some of them, the only. Again, the outliers will only
- 10:26act good on vacation. They act different on vacation
- 10:29because this form is escape, an escape from real life.
- 10:32But a lot of them will absolutely behave in a crazy,
- 10:35crazy way. You have to be prepared for
- 10:37that. I'm just telling you, you have
- 10:38to be prepared. That's the mindset.
- 10:40That's the dynamic that a lot of them would do.
- 10:42This is, I'm telling you, this is me.
- 10:44Just like, hey, this is Lee Hammond.
- 10:46Let you know that if you haven't had a good vacation in 10 years,
- 10:49you probably won't have one another year, 11.
- 10:51You know, I'm not telling you to plan.
- 10:52I'm not telling you to plan trips without them.
- 10:55I'm just saying that just prepare for them to act up and
- 10:58act right. Just plan to do things, you
- 10:59know, just don't let them get to you because, you know, set your
- 11:02boundaries and don't let them get to you regardless of what
- 11:04they doing. You know, because you know,
- 11:06anticipation. You know, one of the greatest
- 11:08ways to protect yourself against narcissistic people is to
- 11:11anticipate their actions. You know, if they're going, you
- 11:13know, they're going to act up and use the silent tribute and
- 11:16just sequester themselves on a trip.
- 11:18Go and have a backup plan. Like, I know they're going to
- 11:20act up and they're going to go in the room and try to shut the
- 11:22door. We going, we going to do some
- 11:23excursions? You see what I'm saying?
- 11:25Just plan for that type of stuff right there because Rd. trips,
- 11:27flights, silent treatments. It just, it gets bad.
- 11:30Y'all in the last moment I got to hear y'all yeah, if I missed
- 11:33one or I missed several, I know, Yeah, this is just top five.
- 11:36I know there's plenty more, but this is just the first few that
- 11:38came to my mind. The last one right here is
- 11:40promotions at work. They will not celebrate your
- 11:44promotions or your achievements in any way at work.
- 11:48Hey babe, I got a $10.00 an hour raise.
- 11:50We're going to be able to get that new car.
- 11:51We're going to be able to move into that new house, whatever,
- 11:54whatever what you had to do to get it.
- 11:56They'll start making excuses for why you got why you are not
- 11:59qualified for that, but you just got it because of something
- 12:02else. You know you you're privileged.
- 12:04You're it is you're that, you know, you're a woman, you're a
- 12:07man, you're whatever race or ethnicity.
- 12:10You're this religion, You know, the boss is this religion.
- 12:12So you're that religion. That's the only reason you got
- 12:14it. You're not really qualified to
- 12:15do that. You know it's a lot of them will
- 12:19absolutely mess with you exactly like that.
- 12:23You know, and I'll tell you like when you try to promote, get a
- 12:26promotion, they will make decisions for you.
- 12:27They'll they'll make you feel bad about getting a promotion.
- 12:29Even though their promotion helps out, helps out around the
- 12:31house, it helps out, helps out in the life, helps out take care
- 12:34of the kids, helps them out. You know you can help pay their
- 12:37their debt, their child support, whatever they behind in, you
- 12:40know, their bills, their student loans.
- 12:42You can help them pay that type of stuff off, but they will feel
- 12:44like they're entitled to it anyway.
- 12:46They don't feel like they're getting anything extra from you.
- 12:47They feel like this is the baseline.
- 12:49You're supposed to be doing this.
- 12:51You know what I'm just saying? Like they will not celebrate
- 12:53your promotions. They'll make you promote, make
- 12:54you feel crazy, make you feel bad about getting promoted.
- 12:57And sometimes if you have some requirements to hit before
- 13:00promotion, like but you got to take a test or something like
- 13:02that, they'll argue with you and fuss and fight with you the
- 13:04night before, the week before, and they'll just do why you
- 13:07taking the test? They'll be texting you and
- 13:09calling you and things like that.
- 13:11You know they're messing with you, trying to distract you,
- 13:13doing the test, doing your, doing your, doing your promotion
- 13:15exam or whatever, doing your qualification exam to get
- 13:18promoted. They'll mess with you.
- 13:19Y'all. You know there's like, I say it
- 13:21right there. Anything, anything.
- 13:22And it's just like, you know, those are the first top five
- 13:25right there. If y'all go, thank you some
