- 0:02Today we're talking about the one phrase that narcissists hate
- 0:07to hear the most. I see right through you.
- 0:11If you're new here, my name is Lee Hammock.
- 0:12I'm a clinically diagnosed narcissist.
- 0:14And welcome to another episode of The Narcissist Code.
- 0:33Boom. I just did.
- 0:35I just did. A superhero landing Welcome.
- 0:37It keeps you fired up. Get yourself fired up.
- 0:39Y'all this video brought me some fire.
- 0:43I just got fired up. Y'all hear y'all see the heat.
- 0:45Y'all see the heat coming, But yeah, y'all.
- 0:48That's the phrase that narcissists hate to hear.
- 0:53Y'all is either is is very interesting of the same phrase.
- 0:58If you can tell a narcissist I see right through you or or or I
- 1:03know who you are, that phrase works just as as works just as
- 1:09potent. Now I told my front of the day
- 1:11is I told my wife this other night, I was like, when you hear
- 1:15this phrase right here because about me what do you think I
- 1:18was? Like if you, if you think, if
- 1:20people say this phrase to me, how do you think I will react?
- 1:23And I was like I know who you are if she's not shaking her
- 1:25head and started laughing because she know how that phrase
- 1:27affects me. I, as a diagnosed narcissist,
- 1:32hate when people know who people think they know me.
- 1:36I don't like to let people get too close.
- 1:38So when you tell a narcissist, a lot of them, not everybody that
- 1:41I don't speak for all narcissists, for the crab
- 1:42babies, other if you tell a narcissist, I see right through
- 1:47you or I know who you are, that's you're like, you're way
- 1:51too close now. Now I feel like I'm now I feel
- 1:55like I'm forced to be vulnerable with you.
- 1:57I feel like you know my weaknesses.
- 1:58You you know the like the little, the chinks in my arm or
- 2:01whatever. You know who I am and I don't.
- 2:03I don't like that I don't feel comfortable around you anymore.
- 2:06So once you once I hear that phrase, I feel like I have to
- 2:09switch up who I am. I feel like I have to switch up
- 2:13my behaviors. I have to.
- 2:14I feel like I have to switch up how I act and how I treat you
- 2:16and how I the things that I do around you.
- 2:20I feel like this stuff has to switch up now.
- 2:21I feel like that stuff. I can't be the same person I was
- 2:25because now I have to shake it up.
- 2:26I can't have you not. I can't have you knowing who I
- 2:29am. Pretty much.
- 2:32I cannot have you knowing who I am, knowing what I do, knowing
- 2:36what I have going on. I cannot have that.
- 2:39So I need to switch it up. I I must switch it up, right?
- 2:43I must switch it up. For narcissists hate that phrase
- 2:47because it's like you see through the mask.
- 2:50It's like you see through who I am.
- 2:51It's like you see me for who I really like.
- 2:53It's like you see my hurt inner child that I've been like the
- 2:57the narcissistic shell is is guarding.
- 3:01It's like you see that and I don't want you to see that I
- 3:04don't I I I hate the fact that you might see that you know I
- 3:08hate the fact that you that you noticed that I hate it just like
- 3:12most narcissists hate it. Y'all.
- 3:14So if you tell a narcissist I know who you are, I see right
- 3:17through you. It's like you're peering into
- 3:19our souls, into the darkness that some of us, some of us,
- 3:23some of us might have in US. And you see the little our inner
- 3:28child balled up into the corner, shaking like, shaking and
- 3:33rattling like uncomfortable, unsafe, vulnerable, needing
- 3:38help, needing assistance, crying out for somebody to protect us.
- 3:43That's what we feel like you see right then and there.
- 3:46And that's what we feel like. We got to change now.
- 3:48I got to change it up now. It's like, you know, too much.
- 3:53So once you say that phrase to narcissistic people, yeah, you
- 3:57might get a visceral reaction. Sometimes it's crazy sometimes
- 4:00if you tell a narcissist that or you say that to a narcissist,
- 4:03like, they might get mad at you and try to give you a pop quiz.
- 4:08Like, some of them will quiz you on the spot like that.
- 4:09You're like they or you're a science teacher.
- 4:12You know they'll quiz you on the spot like they damn near like,
- 4:16I'm your science teacher. And here's your pop quiz, Sir,
- 4:19here's your pop quiz right now. What's my favorite color?
- 4:24What type of music do I like? What happened to me when I was
- 4:2614 years old? You said I'm like, they'll give
- 4:27you a super pop quiz And this right here that makes and this
- 4:32crazy that makes narcissists change their personalities
- 4:36sometimes on the spot. Like if you tell them that you
- 4:40know them, they feel like they need to protect themselves so
- 4:43that they might change their personalities on the spot.
- 4:48And I know that sounds weird and I hope it makes sense to you,
- 4:51but that happened right there. They will change who they are
- 4:54and what they do and how they operate.
- 4:57Damn near on the spot. Just because you said you knew
- 5:00who they are, just because you said you saw their hurt, you see
- 5:04their pain. I see you're hurting.
- 5:06I see your pain. Some of them will change what
- 5:09they do and help what they like, their interest on the damn spot.
- 5:13They will start liking other things that they really do not
- 5:17like just to throw you off. It's like we it's like in in my
- 5:22mind, this is how it's like when you meet a narcissist.
- 5:26It's like you're starting at the beginning of a maze.
- 5:28You know those, like those, those those mazes, like the
- 5:33bushes, like the Bush maze. Like it.
- 5:34Like what was it? Harry Potter.
- 5:36I don't know if you a lot of y'all might have seen Harry
- 5:37Potter when they were going through the maze and the dude
- 5:41who plays Edward from Twilight end up losing his life.
- 5:44Cedric, you know he end up losing his life.
- 5:50That maze, that type of maze right there, it's like you're at
- 5:52the beginning of a maze and you will never find it.
- 5:54The inner child I hurt inner child is in the middle of the
- 5:58maze, lost. And the we we and the the
- 6:03narcissistic part of us has created and made the maze in
- 6:07damn near impossible to navigate.
- 6:08We don't even know where the damn inner child is at.
- 6:10You know we have a map. Sometimes we don't even know
- 6:13where he at or she's at or they are, you know.
- 6:17So if you tell them like I see right through you, it's like you
- 6:19figured out the maze. So now I need to add up some
- 6:22some some some some trap doors. Now I need to add, you know,
- 6:26some spike strip or some poison arrows or something like that.
- 6:31Now I need to find something to deter you away from this spot
- 6:35right here. You know, I need to find
- 6:38something to get you away from this place right here.
- 6:42I need to find something to get you to get.
- 6:45Leave me be. I need to find to throw you off
- 6:48the scent. I need to move my inner child
- 6:50from its safe place in darkness. Now I need to move my inner
- 6:54child to a deeper place in the maze.
- 6:57You see what I'm saying? Like, it's like you see if you
- 6:59tell them that you see through them.
- 7:00That's what they're thinking. They're thinking that you see
- 7:04their inner child. They're thinking that you see
- 7:06their inner pain. They're thinking that you see
- 7:07their inner hurt. They're in the strife.
- 7:09They're in the struggle. They're thinking that right
- 7:10there. They're thinking that that you
- 7:14see all of that. They think so.
- 7:15They have to move their inner child.
- 7:16That's what the phrase that they hate.
- 7:18Because now all the work I put in is now I've got to change it
- 7:21up. Ah, damn it.
- 7:22Sorry. Yeah, knock my mic off.
- 7:25I don't get too hype. Hold off, hold off.
- 7:29Is that now I have to change up my plan.
- 7:31Now I have to change up my patterns.
- 7:33Now I have to change up who I am and what I have going on and
- 7:36what I wanted to do. Because now you know too much.
- 7:41Yeah, sometimes. Like I say, this is the craziest
- 7:42part right here. If you if narcissists feel like
- 7:45you know too much, sometimes they feel like they need to
- 7:46break up with you. It's wild.
- 7:48They'll start treating you badly because you got too close.
- 7:52And narcissistic people, a lot of them, don't want you to get
- 7:54too close. Let's keep it high.
- 7:56You know, a lot of them don't want you too close to them
- 7:59because they don't feel safe. They they don't want you.
- 8:02They don't want you extremely close to them, but they don't
- 8:05want to leave you alone. They don't want to let you go.
- 8:08And I noticed the the confusing dynamic that a lot of people
- 8:11face when you deal with narcissists.
- 8:12It's like, damn, Lee, how do we win, man?
- 8:14Like you don't want you don't want us to get too close, but
- 8:17you don't want to let us go. How do we love a person like
- 8:19this? It is very difficult to love a
- 8:21narcissist Y'all It absolutely is.
- 8:23I'm not trying to make it sound like it's easy and I'm just I I
- 8:26give y'all. I give y'all what I know you
- 8:30know what I mean? So if I'm giving y'all what I
- 8:32know, so you can see it, so you understand it, so like you so
- 8:35you know, like, OK, damn. OK, this is what's going on.
- 8:39This is how this person operates.
- 8:40And I can make the decision. I can make an informed decision
- 8:43on what I need to stay or what I need to go.
- 8:47You know, I can make their decision right now based on
- 8:50factual information that I have provided in front of me.
- 8:54I have, I can make a decision to keep this thing moving forward.
- 8:57I can make that decision because they're going to change up their
- 9:01personalities. Like I said, the person you met
- 9:04in the beginning of a relationship with the narcissist
- 9:07will not be the same person that you know at the end of one.
- 9:12And I say when I say the end of one.
- 9:13It could be when y'all divorce. It could be when y'all break up.
- 9:15It could be when one. It could be when that
- 9:17narcissistic person passes away. The end of relationship won't be
- 9:21you won't you know, and I know people grow.
- 9:23I know people change over time. But you still have a baseline of
- 9:26who you were at the beginning. That person is still right
- 9:29there. You can see.
- 9:30You know your framing is still there for your your original
- 9:33person. The narcissistic person's
- 9:35framing is gone. They are not the same person.
- 9:39You know, they're not who they. They are not the same person.
- 9:43They keep it moving in those spaces, within those dynamics,
- 9:46in that peace. So you have to give yourself
- 9:48some peace. You have to give yourself some
- 9:49space. Because if you don't, I'm just
- 9:51telling you this is how it goes right here.
- 9:53This is the limit a lot of people face.
- 9:57Because if you tell a narcissist, like I see through
- 9:58you, I know who you are and it doesn't matter.
- 10:01Yeah. The crazy thing about it is it
- 10:02doesn't matter what tone you say it in.
- 10:05Like, it doesn't even matter to the tone doesn't matter.
- 10:08The tone is irrelevant. You can say it in the most calm,
- 10:11cool, collected tone that you can think of.
- 10:14And it's still, the narcissistic person will still take it, like
- 10:17as an attack, because it's like, they'll take it like you know
- 10:20their weaknesses. They'll take it like, you know
- 10:22what, whether you know how to hurt me.
- 10:24So your tone is kind of irrelevant in these spaces right
- 10:27here. It can be important sometimes,
- 10:30but the tone absolutely does. It can be irrelevant a lot of
- 10:35times in these spaces within this dynamic.
- 10:36So you have to figure it out in your in this space, we'll take
- 10:39this information. I'm giving you an operator, take
- 10:41it out, take the information I'm giving you and run with it.
- 10:44You know that's the space, that's the dynamic.
- 10:48That's the piece that we go into right there.
- 10:52That really, really is y'all. It really, really is.
- 10:55So I know who you are. I see right through you.
- 11:00Like if you if people tell me it's like Lee, I know exactly
- 11:02who you are. I know exactly what you're going
- 11:04to do. I'm going to switch it up on
- 11:04you. I'm going to start liking
- 11:06different music. I'm going to start liking
- 11:08different stuff. I'm going to just change it up
- 11:09on you immediately. That's just how my mind.
- 11:13That's how my mind works right there in that space.
- 11:14Like if people think they know me, I got to switch it up on
- 11:16you. I got to keep you guessing,
- 11:17right? I got to keep you off balance,
- 11:19you know, because the balance does matter.
- 11:21Keeping you off balance does matter.
