Transcript
- 0:00So what makes a narcissist decide to cut someone off in
- 0:04their life? Like what makes them decide to
- 0:06go ahead and just 86 somebody and get rid of them out of their
- 0:10life? Like what, what, what what is
- 0:12going on inside the mind of a narcissist to make them do that?
- 0:15What are the reasons behind it? That's what we're talking about
- 0:18today. Y'all.
- 0:19If you're new here, my name is Lee Hammock.
- 0:20I'm a diagnosed narcissist. I give you the perspective of a
- 0:23narcissist on this channel, on this podcast of what not y'all,
- 0:27That's what it's all about. Like seriously.
- 0:30And Speaking of podcasts, make sure to follow my new page, the
- 0:33Mental illness Podcast over on YouTube for I'm going to start
- 0:37doing my interviews and stuff over there.
- 0:38So the mental illness podcast is about to get live and let's get
- 0:42it. But yes, y'all, narcissistic
- 0:45people can cut people off for a plethora.
- 0:48I said a big word in a plethora, plethora of different reasons.
- 0:53One of the main reasons they cut people off y'all is because
- 0:56they're done with you. Let's just say let, let, let's
- 0:58get that out the way. Some narcissists are absolutely
- 1:01done with you and they will cut you off y'all.
- 1:04And this is yeah, look, I don't make the rules, y'all.
- 1:07I know y'all think I do because I'm a diagnosed narcissist, but
- 1:09I don't make the rules. I just pseudo enforce them,
- 1:13right? But this is what happens.
- 1:15They could absolutely just be done with you and just be and
- 1:19this and that's it. That is it.
- 1:22That is it, Ricky Bobby, but that's what they do.
- 1:26They can be done with you. They whatever supply that
- 1:28they're they that they are getting from you, whatever
- 1:30supply that they have gotten from you, it is it's just run
- 1:34out. The fuel tank is low.
- 1:36The supply tank is low. So they decide to go ahead and
- 1:39be done with the relationship dynamic, whatever it is, y'all.
- 1:42It doesn't have to be an intimate relationship.
- 1:44This could be your best friend. This could be your coworker.
- 1:46This could be your boss. This could be your parent that
- 1:50yeah, yeah, your parent could cut you off.
- 1:51Your siblings, your cousins, whoever it is, once the supply
- 1:55runs out and they see no benefit of having you around, they will
- 1:58they will get rid of you. They will cut you out of their
- 2:00lives. And what I mean, I cut you out
- 2:03of their lives. It doesn't mean sending, sending
- 2:05you to meet your maker, although some of them will.
- 2:08Be careful. Please, if you, if you feel like
- 2:10that's a possibility, always be safe.
- 2:12Be as safe as possible, right? But a lot of times in these
- 2:16situations, in these scenarios, that's what ends up happening.
- 2:19So many people are faced with dealing with this toxic,
- 2:21abusive, narcissistic person and they get caught up in it and
- 2:25they, they're not safe. They're not safe people.
- 2:28But some nurses will absolutely cut you off because they're down
- 2:31with you. They, they really are just
- 2:32finished. Y'all.
- 2:34They, the suppliers run out. Another reason why they will cut
- 2:38you off is because they found someone else.
- 2:42They found a new supply, a new person.
- 2:46Now in the beginning, I just said that they will cut you off
- 2:49because they they they're done with you.
- 2:50The supply has run out. That doesn't necessarily entail
- 2:53that they have found a new source to supply like a new
- 2:55partner, new relationship partner.
- 2:57Some like that. It could, but it doesn't always
- 2:59guarantee that right? Sometimes they could be done
- 3:01with you and just just hope. They can just hope and pray that
- 3:05they'll find somebody else, right?
- 3:06They can hope, they can hope and pray that there's somebody else
- 3:09out there for them and they just like this is done, this is over
- 3:11it. I'm out of here.
- 3:13But but some of them have found a new supply.
- 3:15Some of them do have new partners.
- 3:16Some of them do do have other people that they can call their
- 3:20partners or their boyfriends or their girlfriends or whatever.
- 3:22Some of them that that does happen, y'all.
- 3:24And this is not me trying to hurt anybody's feelings.
- 3:26This is not me trying to make anybody sad, but this is a
- 3:28distinct possibility and this does happen to a lot of people.
- 3:32They will have a new supply or new partner and then they'll get
- 3:35rid of get rid of you. They will cut you off, right?
- 3:38They will cut you off because they have a new supply.
- 3:40They have a new partner. And if this happens, y'all and
- 3:43like if they have a new partner, they have a new supply and they
- 3:47cut you off, they get rid of you.
- 3:50If that new relationship ends, the possibility does exist that
- 3:53they will try to come back to you.
- 3:56So you, you, you, you have to have the ability to say no.
- 4:03What can't we even say? You, you got to tell them no.
- 4:05When Diddy come before you, You got to say no Diddy leave me
- 4:08alone. No Diddy.
- 4:11But seriously, you have to be able to tell them no because
- 4:15they will come into your life. They will try to wreck shop.
- 4:18They will try to wreak havoc upon your life in some way,
- 4:21shape or form because they feel like it's directly beneficial to
- 4:24them. And they will keep doing that.
- 4:26They will keep trying to they will keep messing with you and
- 4:28they will keep trying to like they will keep trying to come
- 4:31back. And that's just proof positive
- 4:35that just because they decide to cut you off doesn't necessarily
- 4:37mean that they are done with you.
- 4:39Sometimes when they cut you off, what they're really doing is
- 4:42putting you like in a damn recycling bin to come back and
- 4:45use later on. So just because they cut you off
- 4:48and they have a new supply does not necessarily mean that that
- 4:50they are done. When I say that that can make
- 4:53some people happy. Well, Lee, so that means so
- 4:57y'all, I'm from the the generation of dumb and Dumber.
- 4:59So y'all be like, so you're telling me there's a chance?
- 5:03Jim Carrey said that in Dumber. Dumber like you're telling me
- 5:06there's a chance? Like no, more like one in a
- 5:07million. So you're telling me there's a
- 5:12chance? Yeah.
- 5:15Some people get excited when I say that because it it, it means
- 5:18it's not completely over. And some people are, some people
- 5:20are trauma bonded. Some people have some stuff
- 5:22going on. Yeah, it happens.
- 5:24So they can't cut you off because they have a new supply
- 5:27or a new partner. Another reason why some of them
- 5:31will cut you off is because like out you have outgrown them.
- 5:37You, you have outgrown them. They know that they, they, they
- 5:44have this fear that you're going to leave them for somebody else.
- 5:48So they feel like because they have this fear, because this
- 5:51fear is direct, because they have this fear going on, they
- 5:54think that you're out, that you have out, you have outgrown
- 5:57them. And they will continue to come
- 5:58back into your life and wreak havoc upon you.
- 6:01They will continue to do this type of stuff like they will cut
- 6:03you off because they feel like you're going to leave them.
- 6:07And they have to be the first ones to do it.
- 6:09They have to be the cutter offers.
- 6:11They have to cut you off. You don't, they don't want to be
- 6:14cut off. They have to be the ones to cut
- 6:15you off. So some of them will absolutely
- 6:18cut you off because they feel like you're going to leave them.
- 6:22They have this like yes, some, not every narcissist, but some
- 6:26narcissist do absolutely have a fear of abandonment.
- 6:29And because they have this fear, I mean, because this fear is
- 6:32palpable, they will absolutely act on this fear.
- 6:37Like you might not have even given them any inclination that
- 6:41you're going to leave them or break up with them or anything
- 6:43like that, but they can just feel like you are and decided,
- 6:46OK, she bout to leave me. I got to bounce.
- 6:50I got to find somebody else. I got to be the first one to
- 6:52break up with them because that also allows them to protect
- 6:55their reputation, right? If they break up with you,
- 6:57they're the first ones to break up with you.
- 6:59That allows them to strangely or weirdly protect their
- 7:02reputation. No, yes, we broke up, but I
- 7:05broke up with them. Yes, we broke up, but it was me
- 7:10that ended it. They didn't end it.
- 7:11I ended it. You see what I'm saying?
- 7:14Even though you didn't do anything, deserve it, They will
- 7:17do that type of stuff right there, y'all?
- 7:19They will do it because they've had this fear that you're going
- 7:22to be the ones that leaves them and they cannot handle it.
- 7:24They cannot handle that fear. They cannot handle that pain of
- 7:27being left and not having some type of supply.
- 7:30They can't handle that pain of being abandoned and not having
- 7:34anybody to be there for them. So some of them will absolutely
- 7:36dip out on you because they feel like you're going to be the ones
- 7:39that leave them first and they can't live with that.
- 7:41They can't live with themselves. If that happens, they'll go
- 7:43crazy. Those those are the ones they be
- 7:45just be acting up. That's when like and sometimes
- 7:49y'all, when they're done with you right here, anything you
- 7:51want to leave them with somebody else, they actually start to
- 7:54revert. They start the the process of
- 7:55the reverse discard, which means that they will try to discard
- 7:59you. They try to make it seem like
- 8:00it's your fault that things that they're trying to make it.
- 8:03They'll start treating you badly in order for you to break up
- 8:06with them. They'll start treating you badly
- 8:09in order for you to break up with them and that helps them
- 8:12play the victim to you. They can play the victim in that
- 8:14circumstance as well. But narcissistic people that cut
- 8:17people off, like I said earlier, doesn't mean that they are
- 8:20completely done with them. Like they can also be out there
- 8:23testing the waters with other people.
- 8:25Like if a narcissist ghosts you, which is a form of being cut
- 8:29off, right? If a narcissist ghosts you,
- 8:31sometimes they're hiding something.
- 8:34Lee Wyner did narcissist ghost me because they probably were
- 8:37hiding something. You might be the other person.
- 8:41You might be the other woman. You might be the other man.
- 8:43They might be cheating on their spouse or partner with you,
- 8:48right? You might absolutely be the
- 8:51other person. So sometimes they'll ghost you
- 8:53or cut you off because you are the other person.
- 8:56They have this fear that they're going to get caught up.
- 8:59Their lies will be exposed. Whatever they have going on will
- 9:02be exposed and they will treat you a certain type of way like
- 9:05you will be like you going to you going to feel it.
- 9:07They will ghost you because they feel like you are you have
- 9:12something on them that you're going to expose, not expose
- 9:14them. But yeah, you could be exposed.
- 9:16You could expose them. That's it is you could be the
- 9:18one that exposes them, right? Because of how things are going,
- 9:22of how things have went. You could absolutely be the
- 9:24exposer to this person and they don't want to get exposed.
- 9:28So they will ghost you and they will cut you off.
- 9:30That happens because they fear some of them will cut you off
- 9:33because they're afraid, y'all, they're afraid.
- 9:35Look, some narcissistic people, and this is going to sound
- 9:38weird, y'all, some narcissistic people have this mentality that
- 9:43I fear that you're going to cut me off or you're going to leave
- 9:47me. I already have that fear, so I
- 9:50need to get ahead of you. But not only that, not only do I
- 9:54need to get ahead of you, I have this fear that you're going to
- 9:59expose me to like if you know too much about a narcissism,
- 10:03this, this doesn't even mean that you have a like that you
- 10:07have someone else or they have someone else.
- 10:09Sometimes they would get rid of you or cut you off because like
- 10:13you have too much on them. You have, you know too much
- 10:15about them. You have too much power over
- 10:17them. So they will cut you off on that
- 10:18instinct as well, or they feel like you're better than the the
- 10:22competitive narcissist will cut you off because they feel like
- 10:25you're better than them or you have the potential to be better
- 10:27than them. Some of them will cut you off
- 10:30financially, emotionally, mentally, physically.
- 10:32Like I said, cutting it off doesn't necessarily mean always
- 10:34them discarding you physically, right?
- 10:37A parent, a narcissistic parent that is jealous of their
- 10:40children will try to cut them off financially because in order
- 10:43if that kid is stands to be better than them at something
- 10:46that kids get, getting a better education, that kid is going to
- 10:49be live a better life. And then sometimes they'll make
- 10:51their lives harder because they're jealous of their own
- 10:53kids. Imagine being so jealous of your
- 10:55own kid that you make their life harder because you don't want
- 10:59theirs to be as good as yours. You don't want them to go above
- 11:03and beyond you. So you make your own children's
- 11:06lives lives harder because you are jealous of your children and
- 11:09you don't want them out there doing better than you.
- 11:12It does happen y'all. You have the toxic narcissistic
- 11:14parents that will absolutely, absolutely, positively make this
- 11:18type of stuff happen all the time, all the time, y'all.
- 11:22So there's one conclude today's episode.
- 11:24Yeah, I have a one-on-one I have to hop on to right now.
- 11:26If I look at the cloud, like I got one minute to hop off this
