- 0:00So how do you know if you defeated a narcissist?
- 0:09How do you know if a narcissist is done with you for good?
- 0:14And you finally, you finally struck down the narcissistic
- 0:18person in your life and you're like you've you get to put How
- 0:21do you know you get to put your sword in its sheath and be done
- 0:25with them? How you know it's over, right?
- 0:27That's what we talked about today.
- 0:28Y'all, if you're new here, I'm Lee Hammock.
- 0:30I'm a diagnosed narcissist myself and I give you the inside
- 0:33look at the mind of a narcissist, the perspective of a
- 0:36narcissist on a lot of these different issues.
- 0:38So subscribe to the channel if you haven't already hit that
- 0:40subscribe button. But yeah, narcissist toxic
- 0:44people are just. I'm not going to call narcissist
- 0:49A plague to society because I myself am a narcissist and I'm
- 0:51trying to make the world a better place.
- 0:54But most narcissistic people tend to destroy the people that
- 0:58they're around. Well, let's be real, let's keep
- 0:59hiding ready, right? They tend to hurt the people
- 1:02that they're around, whether it's intentional or not.
- 1:04It's up for debate for some people and whatnot, but
- 1:06narcissistic people tend to hurt the people that they're around.
- 1:09So when it's over, how do you know that it's over for good?
- 1:13How do you know when you finally have defeated that narcissistic
- 1:16person? Most times if you defeat a
- 1:19narcissist, they leave you alone.
- 1:21They leave, they look, yeah, they disappeared.
- 1:23They, they put, they tuck their tail, the little narcissistic
- 1:26tails between their narcissistic little legs and they scamper off
- 1:30into the into the moonlight, right?
- 1:32They scamper off into the darkness from whence they came.
- 1:37But like they, they scamper off into the darkness from where
- 1:40they came from, right? And they just disappear on you
- 1:42for good. That's the telltale, that's the
- 1:45number one telltale sign that you've defeated them.
- 1:49That they, they feel like they can't come back to you, that
- 1:52it's over for good, that no matter what they try, no matter
- 1:55what they do, it's over for good.
- 1:58So a lot of times in order to, to know that you've defeated
- 2:01them, it's really, it's really just realizing that they are
- 2:04done, that you never heard from them again.
- 2:06Like the lack, their lack of communication with you, their
- 2:09lack of looking, of trying to find you or whatever the case
- 2:13may be. Their lack of hoovering could be
- 2:16a telltale sign that they're done with you, that you've
- 2:19successfully defeated the, the, the narcissistic person in your
- 2:23life, right? That you've successfully taken
- 2:25them down a peg or whatever the case may be.
- 2:28That's, that's the number one way that you can tell if you've
- 2:30defeated A narcissist, right? And I tell that to a lot of
- 2:34people. I say, hey, look, if they leave
- 2:36you alone, that's normally a good sign that they're done.
- 2:40That's normally a good sign that this relationship dynamic,
- 2:43whatever it is, it's over and done for good.
- 2:46If you haven't heard from them in a long time, it is, it's like
- 2:50a long time is, is that, that, that, that period of time,
- 2:53right, right. There can vary between people,
- 2:56right? Because there's no set period.
- 2:57I, I wish you could say there's a set period of time that they
- 3:00need to be done to, to tell when, if it's really over, but
- 3:02it's not right. If they're, if you used to hear
- 3:05from them every single day and now you haven't heard from them
- 3:08in a couple of weeks or months or years, they're probably done.
- 3:11You probably defeated the narcissist, and they're probably
- 3:13going back into the little narcissistic slumber to, to, to,
- 3:17to the next full moon, to the next full moon or whatever the
- 3:24case may be. But that's the that's one of the
- 3:26ways to tell. But a lot of narcissists will
- 3:29still, even if they're done with you, it doesn't necessarily mean
- 3:33that they will leave you alone. That's a crazy.
- 3:35Yeah, And I understand even saying that out loud sounds
- 3:39stupid, Lee. That sounds dumb as hell.
- 3:42Yeah, it does, don't it? Just imagine thanking it.
- 3:46Just imagine being on the other end of it, right?
- 3:49Knowing that I even like if I say if I'm reaching out to you
- 3:54doesn't mean I'm not done with you.
- 3:55This crazy as hell to even that. That sounds dumb at least.
- 3:58So they're reaching out to you, but they're done with you at the
- 4:01same time they've been defeated. Yes.
- 4:03Another way you can tell if you've defeated that narcissist
- 4:06is by if they're still communicating with you.
- 4:09How are they communicate with you?
- 4:10What are they actually saying? Right, Because if they're trying
- 4:15to consistently get you back, right.
- 4:17If they're just begging to see you, begging to talk to you,
- 4:20begging to have a face to face conversation, begging for you to
- 4:23respond to them, or whatever the case may be.
- 4:25If you haven't blocked them, if you can't block them, whatever,
- 4:27whatever. Maybe if they're begging on a
- 4:31consistent basis and now the begging has ceased and they stop
- 4:35begging, there could be a sign that you have defeated them and
- 4:38made your made your point clear that they will not be allowed
- 4:42back into your life, back into your space.
- 4:45So some of them, even if they are not completely done with
- 4:48you, you can still have defeated them.
- 4:50You see what I'm saying? Because you're not giving them
- 4:52the energy that they have actually like that they're
- 4:55looking for. You haven't given them given
- 4:57them the energy or the responses that they might be after, which
- 5:01again, y'all is a good sign. It's a good sign that you're not
- 5:05giving them that energy. It's a good sign that you're not
- 5:08feeding into whatever they're trying to get you to feed into.
- 5:10That's a good sign because it allows you the ability to
- 5:15empower yourself and to continue to move forward while you're
- 5:18healing. You know, because it doesn't.
- 5:20At the end of the day, y'all, it doesn't really matter what they
- 5:25are doing. It doesn't really matter what
- 5:28they are saying. If you have a look, if you have
- 5:31a goal set, if you have goals set on what you should be doing
- 5:36or what you want to accomplish, right, of what you want to
- 5:40accomplish. It doesn't matter what they say
- 5:41or what they do. It doesn't matter how if they
- 5:43try to come back into your life because you know you're not
- 5:46going to let them back in, you're not going to defeat.
- 5:50Defeating a narcissist is going to look different for most
- 5:52people. Like defeating A narcissist
- 5:55could mean just you have to have to look.
- 5:58You had to treat them like a damn hydra.
- 6:00You cut off 1 head, 2 might grow back but now you got to cut off
- 6:032 heads but you're going to still be cutting.
- 6:05Definitely not good. Sometimes defeating A narcissist
- 6:16or making them done be done for good means continuously striking
- 6:20them down. Because sometimes you can't
- 6:22block them right? Y'all have kids, you have court
- 6:24order, you have the court says you got to communicate with them
- 6:26even through a community, even through an app.
- 6:29They could be trying to Hoover you through the app, but you
- 6:31keep striking them down, not giving them energy.
- 6:34That's defeating them, right? That's defeating that
- 6:37narcissistic person. And even if they're, they keep
- 6:40saying sideways ass stuff to you, they, a lot of them know
- 6:43that you're done, right? A lot of them know that you're
- 6:45done. It's kind of like they're just
- 6:47putting the fillers out there. It's kind of like they know that
- 6:50the fish in this pond are gone, right?
- 6:53There's no, there's no look, they haven't caught a fish in
- 6:55this pond for years. But they leave the fishing line
- 7:00in there just in case. They leave their fishing line
- 7:01planting in the sand and they leave the bait in the water just
- 7:05in case a fish comes back and bites it.
- 7:08So they're just throwing bait out there.
- 7:10They know you're done. They're just throwing bait out
- 7:12there just in case. The possibility exists that you
- 7:16might not be right. Just in case the possibility
- 7:19exists that you might get lonely or hurt one night or you in a
- 7:23vulnerable state and you need somebody to talk to.
- 7:25Guess what? They want to make it make, make
- 7:27they want to make sure it's in the back of your head that they
- 7:30might still be available to you. So just because they, like I
- 7:33said, they're reaching out to you, a lot of them still know
- 7:36you're done. A lot of them know that you've
- 7:38that they're defeated and that they can't get back into your
- 7:40life. They yeah, they know it
- 7:41regardless of what they're saying and what they're doing,
- 7:43they know that you're not letting them back in your life.
- 7:47But it doesn't mean that they they're going to stop trying,
- 7:49right? Defeating A narcissist, like I
- 7:51said earlier, is going to look different for every single
- 7:54person. So knowing that you defeated
- 7:56them, right, sometimes requires you to put their asses in jail.
- 8:03Hey, sometimes you got to lock them up.
- 8:05Sometimes you. I know it sounds harsh to some
- 8:08people, but sometimes you got to lock they asses up to make them
- 8:11leave you alone. You really do.
- 8:13Like, realistically, you have to get them locked up in order to
- 8:16leave. Get you to leave you alone.
- 8:18You really do. I know people like.
- 8:20Damn, that's kind of harsh. Yeah, but like, it's it's it's
- 8:22harsh. It can be viewed as harsh, but
- 8:25it's necessary. You know it's harsh, but it's
- 8:28absolutely necessary because sometimes they refuse to leave
- 8:31you be. They refuse to give you the
- 8:33space that you require. They refuse to respect your
- 8:35boundaries. They, they, they are
- 8:37continuously being physically, emotionally abusive or
- 8:40threatening to harm you. Sometimes you have to lock they
- 8:43asses up to defeat them. And then if they stop writing
- 8:46you letters from jail or stop trying to call you from the jail
- 8:48phone, they could be a sign that they're done for good, could be
- 8:52a sign that they're defeated, right?
- 8:54You get that restraining order and they finally stopped
- 8:57reaching out, so you don't hear any more phone calls from you.
- 8:59That could be a sign that they're defeated.
- 9:01Sometimes you have to force the issue.
- 9:04I know some people don't want to hear that right there, right.
- 9:05You just want, you just want them to go away on their own,
- 9:07right? You want them to go away on
- 9:09their own and just leave you in peace and allow you to live the
- 9:12life that you want to live. I yeah, I get that.
- 9:14I understand it. I wish it was that simple.
- 9:16But sometimes you have to be brave and courageous and strong
- 9:20enough to get them that you have to take that.
- 9:22You have to take the actions in order to press the press, the
- 9:25issue to press forward to get them to leave you be.
- 9:28That's going to be like a requirement sometimes for you to
- 9:31power up, get them to leave you alone and allow yourself to have
- 9:34that peace, that calmness and that stillness within yourself.
- 9:38Those are important issues that you're going to face on this
- 9:41journey right here. They really, really are.
- 9:44So as you continue to move forward and try to decide what's
- 9:46next for you, these are things that you have to absolutely
- 9:49consider, like what this person is going to do and what you've
- 9:52had. Do.
- 9:53You have to make a plan in order to maximize your effectiveness,
- 9:58right? You have to make a plan in
- 9:59order, like I got to call the police.
- 10:01I have to have an escape plan. I have to have a safety plan
- 10:04because sometimes they refuse to leave you alone.
- 10:07So now they keep, they keep showing up at your house,
- 10:09begging, pleading, threatening you.
- 10:11So now they already harmed you. They threatening harm you again.
- 10:14Sometimes you have to force the issue again, which I know a lot
- 10:17of people don't want to hear because it means you have it
- 10:20requires their work. It requires you to put their
- 10:23work in, right? And that sucks for some people
- 10:25because you just want to you just like Lee.
- 10:26I wish the hell they would just leave.
- 10:28Why can't they just leave me alone?
- 10:30I would love for them to just leave me be and allow me to have
- 10:33some type of peace because that allows me that would allow me to
- 10:36the opportunity to move forward. They don't want you to move
- 10:39forward, right? So sometimes you have to force
- 10:42them to be done. And another telltale sign y'all,
- 10:44and it's going to be the last one I cover to know that you
- 10:47defeated a narcissist is when you move on and you don't hear
- 10:52from him anymore. If you find, if you find a new
- 10:55partner or somebody that makes you happy or you get married
- 10:57into a new relationship, like a way that they know to do that
- 11:01you a way to know that they've been defeated is that you don't
- 11:04hear from them as much anymore, right?
- 11:06Because they know you've replaced them.
- 11:08They know that you've moved on. They know that the possibility
- 11:11exists that you're happy again. Just because they like because
- 11:15you find a new partner or they find a new partner, it doesn't
- 11:17mean that they're going to stop reaching out.
- 11:19It just sometimes they feel like you've met, they've met their
- 11:23match when you find somebody else that they feel like they're
- 11:25inadequate to. So sometimes defeating a
- 11:28narcissist is going to look different for every single
- 11:30person in these situations. But like moving on and being
- 11:33happy and thriving doesn't necessarily require you to have
- 11:36someone else, but it does require you to put that debt.
- 11:39You got to put the time, effort and energy in.
- 11:40I know, like, damn it, I got to put energy.
- 11:43You got to put it in, y'all? Yeah, it's kind of like you got
- 11:45to pay. You got to pay the the boat man
- 11:48from the the Egypt. I think it's the Egyptian times.
- 11:51They put the little dollar sign the little dollar.
- 11:53The dollar's over their eyes when you pass away.
- 11:54You got to pay the boat man to get you across the get you
- 11:57across the water and when I get to get you across the the river
