Transcript
- 0:00What is going on, Beautiful people?
- 0:02Today we're talking about two ways in which narcissists and
- 0:07toxic people handle conflict. If you're new here, my name is
- 0:11Lee Hammock. I'm a clinically diagnosed
- 0:12narcissist. And welcome to another episode
- 0:14of the Narcissist Code. Boom.
- 0:33Welcome back. Welcome back.
- 0:34Welcome back, folks, folks, Folks, Yes, yes, welcome back.
- 0:43So two ways in which narcissists and toxic people handle
- 0:49conflict. How do they handle conflict?
- 0:52You know, are there more than two ways?
- 0:54Yes. But today I'm about to talk
- 0:56about the two main ways that a lot of narcissists and toxic
- 0:59people will handle conflict. Not all narcissists or toxic
- 1:05people handle conflict in the same way.
- 1:08Let me say that I gotta. I have to shout that from the
- 1:10rooftops because there's people out there who watch this and
- 1:13just like Lee. You can't speak.
- 1:15For all narcissists, Because you don't know all narcissists.
- 1:18You can only speak for you. Blink, blink, blink, blink,
- 1:22blink, blink, blink Lego Batman. But yeah, two ways in which
- 1:28narcissists and toxic people handle conflict.
- 1:31Like, seriously? Yeah, so the 1st way is rage.
- 1:35The 1st way that narcissists handle conflict is rage.
- 1:39Narcissistic rage. Getting angry as hell.
- 1:43Getting getting super angry. Getting super just beating on
- 1:49their chest. Posturing, throwing things.
- 1:52Threatening to hit you. Yelling and screaming.
- 1:55You know, making just just loud, loud, you know, language.
- 2:00You know what I mean? Y'all.
- 2:02If you've dealt with a narcissist, you've probably
- 2:04dealt with narcissistic rage. But not all narcissists rage.
- 2:07We'll we'll get into that later. But narcissistic rage is when
- 2:10they just go into these just like word salads of anger,
- 2:15uncontrollable anger. Sometimes with a lot of you hear
- 2:18a lot of people say, like the narcissist's eyes change colors
- 2:21or they dilated or something like that because they're raged
- 2:23out. Can they narcissistically rage
- 2:26lead to some physical assault? Yeah, absolutely.
- 2:30When they lose their minds and they blank out, sometimes they
- 2:32will put their hands on you or their their body parts on you,
- 2:35or they'll use the weapons against you or they'll they'll
- 2:38injure. They will end your life, you
- 2:39know, Let's be realistic. Some narcissistic people, when
- 2:42they rage out, will end your life with it.
- 2:44When the conflict is brought to them even, yeah, even when the
- 2:48conflict was of their own doing, when you're just trying to hold
- 2:54them accountable for something that they have done, they can
- 2:57still rage out on you. They can absolutely still become
- 3:01angry as hell as you and use it like, yeah, just be angry.
- 3:04Use this against you. Be mad.
- 3:06Y'all be mad to the highest of peaks.
- 3:09Be mad to the highest of heavens, You know, because
- 3:12you're just trying to hold them accountable.
- 3:13You discovered that they were hiding money.
- 3:16You discovered that they were cheating.
- 3:17You discovered that they were lying.
- 3:18You discovered that they were drinking again, even after they
- 3:21promised that they wouldn't drink again.
- 3:23You know, they cut out the drugs, they cut out the alcohol.
- 3:26Whatever it is, you discovered it.
- 3:28Somebody told you. Or you, or they told you they.
- 3:32Even if they come to you and start the conflict, they can
- 3:35still rage out on you. Because they Because this is
- 3:38what? A lot.
- 3:39This is what happened with a lot of narcissists.
- 3:40Y'all they think because they tell you about what they've done
- 3:43wrong. You should automatically
- 3:45approach them in a different way.
- 3:47Hey, at least I told you, didn't I?
- 3:48Yes, I cheated with your best friend, but I didn't have to
- 3:51tell you. I don't get any.
- 3:53I don't get any points for telling you that I cheated on
- 3:56you. With your best.
- 3:57Friend in our bed while you. Were watching all.
- 4:01The kids, I don't get any points for that.
- 4:04I should get points for that. You were really angry at me.
- 4:08You were really angry at me. They didn't.
- 4:11Lose their minds and start yelling and screaming and going
- 4:14crazy because you try to hold them accountable.
- 4:17You get mad, you become dismissive.
- 4:20You don't want to hear it. You want to break up with them.
- 4:22You want to end the relationship.
- 4:23They'll they, I know it sounds crazy, but yeah, they will get
- 4:27mad as hell Y'all. Some narcissists will absolutely
- 4:29get mad as hell. Lose their everlasting minds and
- 4:35just go all out with the insanity because it benefits
- 4:37them. You know the rage benefits
- 4:40narcissistic people when they're raging out on you.
- 4:42The rage. There's a benefit to rage.
- 4:44And not all narcissists rage in the same way, Yo.
- 4:47Some narcissistic rage can involve this silent treatment
- 4:50where they're just ignoring you, you ain't and stuff like that.
- 4:53That's that's a part of narcissistic rage, you.
- 4:55Narcissistic rage is not always yelling and screaming.
- 4:57Narcissistic rage is just looking at instead of yelling at
- 5:00you. They're just they're they're
- 5:02just being quiet. You know, they just, they just
- 5:05remove the communication, right? They remove the communication
- 5:09from you. They're still rage.
- 5:10They're so mad that they don't have to yell and scream.
- 5:12They're so mad that they don't have any words anymore for you.
- 5:15You know? They're so damn angry that they
- 5:17don't have any words for you anymore.
- 5:19That's how that happens right there.
- 5:20Y'all like they they get so goddamn mad that they just like,
- 5:22OK, I'm so angry. I don't have words.
- 5:25I'm so angry with you. I can't talk to you.
- 5:28You see what I'm saying? That's what happens.
- 5:30They get so angry that they don't even want to talk to you.
- 5:32They're so furious that they don't want to communicate with
- 5:34you. They just like literally they've
- 5:36removed the communication aspect and hopefully, you know, like
- 5:39you'll get past it and whatnot. That's the mindset of a lot of
- 5:42narcissistic people. When the conflict is brought to
- 5:44them, even like, even if they start the conflict, even if the
- 5:49conflict is of their own doing, they did this.
- 5:52They created the conflict, they created the issues.
- 5:55It doesn't matter. They still feel like you.
- 5:57Like this is how it's supposed to go.
- 5:59I. Told you right?
- 6:01I told you so. You should forgive me, you
- 6:03should cunt holding me accountable blah blah.
- 6:06Blah, blah, Boo, Boo, BBB, y'all get it.
- 6:08You know what I mean? And the next way, y'all the next
- 6:12way, I say there will be two quick ways that narcissists
- 6:15handle conflict. The next way is avoidance.
- 6:18The next way that narcissists handle conflict is by avoiding
- 6:22the conflict overall. You know what I mean?
- 6:26The narcissists avoid the conflict overall.
- 6:29They're just like, I'm just going to avoid it.
- 6:31I'm just not going to deal with it.
- 6:32The easiest way for me to handle this stuff is for me to not deal
- 6:35with it at all. That's what happens to a lot of
- 6:38narcissists and toxic people right there.
- 6:40They just avoid it at all cost, you know?
- 6:44They just don't bring it up. They don't want to talk about
- 6:45it. Let's talk about this later.
- 6:47You mean, could silent treatment also be part of the avoidance?
- 6:50Yes, absolutely. Yes.
- 6:51I know people are going to say, well, isn't being solid to kind
- 6:53of avoid it. You're you're just kind of
- 6:55repeating yourself. Yeah.
- 6:56Silent treatment can caulk. They're so angry that they give
- 6:59you silent, They give you silence.
- 7:00They don't want to talk to you and they also avoid you.
- 7:02You know what I'm saying? So this is like silent treatment
- 7:05can crawl. Silent treatment is like the
- 7:07silent treatment bridges the gap between the the, the conflict,
- 7:11how narcissists handle conflict. Right.
- 7:13You know what I mean? Silent treatment bridges the
- 7:16gap. But yeah, avoid it.
- 7:18They don't want to talk about it.
- 7:18They don't want to deal with it. They don't like, they don't.
- 7:20They might not get mad at you. They might not give you the
- 7:22silent treatment. They just don't want to talk
- 7:24about it. They keep, they keep putting it
- 7:25in off. They keep avoiding the issue.
- 7:28They keep avoiding going to therapy.
- 7:29They keep avoiding having this conversation.
- 7:31They keep avoiding sitting down with you and talking to you
- 7:34about it. They keep avoiding telling their
- 7:36parents. They keep avoid like the
- 7:37conflict could be y'all getting the getting their divorce.
- 7:40They keep avoiding telling the kids, let's sit down and tell
- 7:42the kids we're getting a divorce.
- 7:44No, let's let's wait till later. Let's just do it later.
- 7:47They just avoid the inevitable. Like avoidance is a big thing
- 7:51about like how narcissists handle certain conflicts.
- 7:53Because in the mind of a lot of narcissists, y'all it's like if
- 7:57we we feel like if we avoid it, then it will just go away on its
- 8:02own. If I don't have this
- 8:03conversations with the kids about getting divorced, maybe we
- 8:06won't get divorced because that makes it real.
- 8:08If I handle the conflict, if I don't avoid it, it makes it
- 8:11real. You see what I'm saying?
- 8:13That happens so many times in these toxic relationships with
- 8:16narcissists and toxic people. It really, really does.
- 8:19So if you're dealing with narcissistic people, that
- 8:21happens. Y'all.
- 8:21It really, really does. So that's why I'm just telling
- 8:24you, if you're dealing with a toxic, narcissistic person, this
- 8:26is part of the dynamic right here.
- 8:28You can win. You just have to take the
- 8:30necessary steps in, in the right direction to win.
- 8:32Like they're going to rage out of you.
- 8:34They can avoid you, like I said you like.
- 8:36If they are avoiding the issue, sometimes you might have to take
- 8:39the necessary steps and handle it on your own.
- 8:43Whatever accountability looks like, sometimes, like say if you
- 8:47are like, say, the divorce situation and whatnot, and you
- 8:50they're avoiding handling it, talking, talking to the kids or
- 8:53whatever, telling people about it.
- 8:54You might have to take the necessary steps in the right
- 8:56direction because they might not ever want to do it.
- 8:58Because again, they feel like if they avoid it, then it might not
- 9:01really happen. If I avoid talking about it, if
- 9:04I avoid dealing with it, if I avoid bringing it into the real
- 9:07life, then it might not happen. If it doesn't happen, then I'm
- 9:11good to go. You know, if I can avoid it to
- 9:13the end of the earth, then I'll be good to go, so to speak.
- 9:17That happens so much with toxic, narcissistic people in these
- 9:19relationships. They avoid it, ignore it.
- 9:23They can Stonewall you. They'll Stonewall you.
- 9:25Just like if you try to talk about it like at night time,
- 9:28they'll just, like, let's talk about it tomorrow night, right
- 9:30before we go to bed. They'll hop in the bed and speed
- 9:32sleep. You ever seen somebody speed
- 9:34sleep? They hop in the bed and they
- 9:37just almost sleep immediately. Like, you go take a shower.
- 9:40You go to, hey, I'm going to go brush my teeth.
- 9:42When I come back, we're going to have that conversation.
- 9:44OK. All right.
- 9:46They sleep with hell. When you get back, you go in
- 9:48there to use the bathroom. I got to pee real quick.
- 9:50I'll be right back. We'll have the conversation.
- 9:52OK? Speed sleepers.
- 9:54You mean to avoid the issue? Or we'll just have the
- 9:57conversation in the morning, Then they get up and leave in
- 9:59the morning early. They come home later.
- 10:01Like this. Just avoid, like, narcissistic
- 10:03people, avoid handling, handling the conflict.
- 10:06Because you know what I mean? They feel like if I avoid it
- 10:11then it doesn't happen then I won't get held accountable.
- 10:14You know what I mean? That what happens right there.
- 10:16Really really really that's really what happens.
- 10:18Y'all. So those are the main two ways
- 10:19right here. Bonus way bonus.
- 10:21If you stay this long you get a bonus way power narcissist
- 10:24handle conflict too. So thank Y'all for making it to

- 10:42disagree or they'll just ram the whatever decision that they
- 10:46make, they'll just ram that down your throat.
