- 0:13Lee Hammock. I'm a diagnosed narcissist and
- 0:15welcome to another episode of The Narcissist Code.
- 0:34Boom, welcome back y'all. Welcome back, welcome back y'all
- 0:37see the, the, the new studio. I'm in Houston, my Houston
- 0:40studio, my Houston, TX studio actually leaving today.
- 0:43We'll be back soon for our next in person workshop.
- 0:45We're going to play another one in Houston pretty soon y'all.
- 0:48But yes, narcissistic people, toxic people, abusive people.
- 0:51Why the hell do you feel safe with them?
- 0:52Why you help? Why in the hell would you feel
- 0:54safe with somebody that's that's harmed you right now?
- 0:58You might have originally felt safe with them, but why did you
- 1:01feel safe with them in the first place?
- 1:02You see what I'm saying? Because narcissistic people,
- 1:04y'all get into your heads. Narcissistic people, it's kind
- 1:08of like like ticks. They Burrow.
- 1:10They Burrow into your psyche, they barrel into your into your
- 1:13heart, they Burrow into your mind and whatnot.
- 1:16They Burrow like they literally like ticks and they want to be
- 1:20into your life. They want to be involved in you.
- 1:22They want you to trust them. They go above and beyond doing
- 1:26the love bombing phase to get you to trust them.
- 1:29There's a woman, there's a woman.
- 1:31I just, I literally just responded to this story on my
- 1:34other channel, right on my other Lee actions YouTube channel.
- 1:38And I told her, I mean, she said the story and she's like her
- 1:40narcissistic ex. He's a recent ex.
- 1:43He said that she told, he told her up front that he used to
- 1:47beat all of his exes. He said I used to beat the asses
- 1:50of my exes. I broke their ribs.
- 1:51I did this, I did that, blah, blah, blah.
- 1:54But I'm not going to do that to you.
- 1:55And I'm only telling you this so you'll trust me.
- 1:58Like what? He literally told her about all
- 2:01the horrible stuff that he had done to people in the past to
- 2:04get her to trust him. And she said, yeah, I loved him
- 2:06for that. I trusted him.
- 2:07I felt safe with him because he didn't have to tell me that.
- 2:11That's how some abusive narcissists will get over on
- 2:14you. They will share information with
- 2:15you that they didn't have to do. They will share things with you
- 2:19that they didn't have to share with you.
- 2:20They will tell you something that they didn't have to tell
- 2:22you so that you feel safe with them, so that you trust them.
- 2:26That's what a lot of narcissists and people will do.
- 2:28They'll be there for you. Like, yeah, I know narcissists,
- 2:31a lot of narcissists lack empathy, right?
- 2:32Some of them have no empathy. So they'll do things.
- 2:37They'll do things in the beginning, it's like vulnerable
- 2:40stuff. They'll be there for you when
- 2:41you need them in the beginning sometimes, like if you just get
- 2:44to know this person, they'll be there for you.
- 2:47They'll tell, like they'll, they'll hug you, they'll kiss
- 2:49you. If you lose somebody, you lose
- 2:50your pet. You lose a pet.
- 2:52You if you just got to have a breakup, right?
- 2:55If you're in a vulnerable place because you just got broken up
- 2:58with, you just got cheated on it, you just got divorced, this
- 3:01person is going to try to be an empathetic person for you or
- 3:04give you a shoulder to the crown or something to bounce on.
- 3:06You see what I'm saying? Or they'll try to bounce on you
- 3:09if you get my dress. That's the type of stuff that
- 3:11will happen. They do this type of stuff when
- 3:13you're in a vulnerable, vulnerable position.
- 3:15When you need someone, they are there for you so you feel safe
- 3:17with them or, or, or sometimes this is your friend.
- 3:22There's so many people who go from just dating and may not
- 3:25they go from being friends with this person.
- 3:27We've been friends for 10 years. We've been friends for 20 years.
- 3:30We've been, we've always been friends.
- 3:33They've always been there and then it just so happened that we
- 3:36were both single and then we started dating and I
- 3:38automatically trusted them. I felt safe with them because
- 3:40they've been, they've been one of the constants in my life for
- 3:4430 years, for 10 years, for 15 years, however long I've been
- 3:47friends for the last five years. I've been through so many
- 3:50breakups and this person is always there for me.
- 3:52So now we just, we just decided to give it a try.
- 3:55So you give it a try and now you hate it that you hate this
- 3:58person. You give it a try.
- 3:59Now you can't stand this person. You give it a try.
- 4:01Now you like I said a lot, a lot of this stuff is going on.
- 4:03You give it a try. You try with this person, I'm
- 4:05just like, and so you feel safe with them.
- 4:08Sometimes the safety is already built in.
- 4:11Sometimes the safety and why you feel safe with this person is
- 4:13already built into the relationship.
- 4:15It's already built into the dynamics.
- 4:16It's already built into the space.
- 4:18You feel safe with them because they've done stuff to make you
- 4:21feel safe with them like they've already been around you.
- 4:23They do stuff for you to trust in the beginning, like they've
- 4:26already been your friend. They're already they already
- 4:28they go to your church. This is the person who goes to
- 4:31your church and that's, that's how that's a lot.
- 4:32I want to get up and jump out this chair right now because
- 4:36that's how they get a lot of y'all the church boy, the church
- 4:39stuff. This is how they get a lot of
- 4:41y'all right here. They go to church with me.
- 4:43They went to my church. Y'all be trusting?
- 4:46Yeah, I don't know. The religious stuff is one of my
- 4:49triggers. The religious stuff is
- 4:51absolutely one of my trigger points.
- 4:53Like I cannot stand a fake ass religious person.
- 4:56So y'all will see these people in church.
- 4:57You meet these people in church. It might be your pastor, it
- 5:00might be the pastor's brother or sister or somebody.
- 5:03It might be the, the, the Deacon or the first lady, whoever it
- 5:07is, do you trust these, you trust this person because they
- 5:10have this religious back. They have this, they have the
- 5:12religious backing, they have religious backing.
- 5:14They have the trust and need. They have, they have this stuff
- 5:17going for them, right? This is how stuff goes.
- 5:20This is the mindset, This is the mentality and how it works.
- 5:22Like you trust them. You feel safe with them because
- 5:24you're in the church. Like who the hell.
- 5:26Like they didn't, I know this is gonna sound funny, but they,
- 5:29they didn't catch on fire when they walked into the church.
- 5:31So they must not be evil, right? They must be safe, right?
- 5:35They didn't burst into flames. They're not on fire.
- 5:37They're not screaming and yelling.
- 5:38Their head is not smoking. So they must not be evil, right?
- 5:41That's the space that so many people fall into right there.
- 5:43You trust them. You feel safe with them because
- 5:46they come from a place of safety.
- 5:47You should feel safe in church. You shouldn't feel safe with
- 5:51somebody that works with you. You shouldn't feel safe with a
- 5:53doctor or a firefighter. They have a you feel safe with
- 5:55them because they have a job of protecting and serving.
- 5:57They're a nurse, they're a doctor, they're a firefighter,
- 6:00they're a pastor. You see what I'm saying?
- 6:02They're communal. Communal narcissists exist.
- 6:04Y'all communal narcissists or narcissists in they donate to
- 6:07the charity they run a they run a non profit they give that
- 6:11gives books to the needy or fees to the homeless, whatever.
- 6:14They do this type of stuff, but they're evil.
- 6:17They have dark hearts and they do this type of stuff.
- 6:19So you trust them. There's no way that this person
- 6:21is abusive because they they feed the homeless.
- 6:23There's no way this person is abusive because they do this,
- 6:25they do that. There's no way this person is
- 6:27abusive because they have this good job.
- 6:29There's no way this person is abusive because they go to
- 6:31school, they go to church, they do this, they do that.
- 6:34There's no way this person is abusive.
- 6:36So that's the space that so many people fall into right there.
- 6:38You trust them and you feel the same with them because they have
- 6:40this backing. It's kind of like they have a
- 6:42card. It's like here's my card, you
- 6:45know, here's my card right here. Here's my here's my here's my
- 6:49good person resume. Read it.
- 6:51You know what I'm saying? I write yeah, I write everything
- 6:53in my remarkable too, in my remarkable tablet.
- 6:55I love this. I haven't got the new one yet.
- 6:56I didn't get that new one, but this is my remarkable writing
- 6:59tablet. I'll see that thing right there.
- 7:01I love it. It's my electric.
- 7:02It's literally just my writing tablet.
- 7:05But this is how some this is stuff that people fall into
- 7:07right there, right this. I'll be wanting y'all to win.
- 7:12Like just because they come from a place of being good.
- 7:16They have a good job, they have a good career, they have a good.
- 7:19When I say good, I mean just not making money.
- 7:21I mean, it's a good, it's a good backing.
- 7:24It has a good, it has good. It has good connotations to it
- 7:28and whatnot. My connotation might be the
- 7:29wrong word, but it has a good reputation.
- 7:33Like I was, like I said, a firefighter or police officer.
- 7:35They're protecting and serving somebody in the military.
- 7:38You see what I'm saying, Somebody that drives ambulances
- 7:41or the school bus driver, whatever it is like somebody
- 7:43that volunteers to drive the school bus even though they're a
- 7:45doctor or surgeon, you know, the person driving a school, the
- 7:48school bus driver is a surgeon that just, they were out of the,
- 7:51they were out of the, they didn't have enough drivers.
- 7:53So here, here, here they are, right.
- 7:55This is the stuff that happens. So I'll be rooting for you.
- 7:58I really, really do. I'll be rooting for y'all.
- 8:00I want y'all to win. I want y'all to understand it.
- 8:01This is This is why you trust them.
- 8:03This is why you feel safe with them because they, like I said,
- 8:06that's why I tell people, take your time when you getting to
- 8:09know somebody, when you're just like getting out there into the
- 8:11world, when you're just out there trying to do this, trying
- 8:14to do it. When you're just getting out
- 8:16there getting to know this person or getting to know
- 8:18anybody for that matter. Just understand that they're
- 8:21going to be manipulators, they're going to be abusers,
- 8:22They're going to be toxic narcissistic people out there
- 8:25that do this evil stuff that are just evil Incarnate and their
- 8:30goal is to just get into your life and hurt you and harm you.
- 8:34Now some of them, not everybody has the same goal, y'all.
- 8:36I'm not saying that every single narcissist is going to be evil,
- 8:38but I'm saying there are a lot out there that have this
- 8:41mentality, that have this mindset of, hey, I'm going to do
- 8:44this, I'm going to do that. I'm going to be a horrible
- 8:46person to you. I'm going to say this horrible
- 8:48stuff to you. There are a lot out there that
- 8:50will absolutely say and do that type of stuff.
- 8:52So again, you have to be prepared for it.
- 8:55Take your y'all, take your time, set the set boundaries.
- 9:01Will everybody like so will everybody respect your
- 9:03boundaries up front? No, no, no, no.
- 9:08Will everybody violate your boundaries up front?
- 9:10No, not every narcissist is going to violate your
- 9:12boundaries. And when you if you set them,
- 9:14not every narcissist is going to be the same.
- 9:16Some narcissist are going to respect boundaries at first,
- 9:18then they get you to trust them and then they they start, they
- 9:21start doing that type of stuff because they will respect
- 9:23boundaries up front sometimes just to get you to lower your
- 9:26guard, just to get you to let your walls down.
- 9:28And when you let your walls down, boom, they got you.
- 9:32You mean they respected boundaries at first?
- 9:34Well, they did respect my boundaries at first.
- 9:36Sometimes it takes a while to out them.
- 9:38Use the word no, say no make them.
- 9:41Sometimes you have to make them feel rejected because you don't
- 9:44really know somebody until you live with them, until you reject
- 9:48them, until they are angry, you see them angry.
- 9:50There's so many money is involved.
- 9:53There's so many different things they have to happen in these
- 9:56spaces and whatnot to help people to help you understand
- 9:59what you're going through and who you're dealing with.
- 10:00It's just, it's just just the, the truth right there.
- 10:03There's so many people out here. I'm not saying that they're
- 10:05aiming to hurt you and harm you, but there are some people that
- 10:07absolutely are. Their goal is to hurt you and
- 10:10harm you. But like just when you feel safe
- 10:12with them, y'all too, when you feel, if you feel safe too fast.
- 10:15I'm not saying that every relationship is going to be
- 10:17toxic when you feel safe too fast, but just take your time.
- 10:21Say no if you see a red flag, if they tell you a sob story.
- 10:27I'm going to say this as well. Some narcissists get you to feel
- 10:30safe with them by telling you a vulnerable story upfront.
- 10:33That's kind of like trauma dumping upfront where they'll
- 10:36tell you about some type of childhood trauma or something
- 10:39that they that they've experienced.
- 10:40They'll tell you about some type of hardship that they've
- 10:42experienced to get you to your lawyer guard to get you to trust
- 10:45them to get you to feel good about the situation, right?
- 10:47That's the type of stuff that they will do.
- 10:49They absolutely will. So take your time, get their
- 10:53trauma dumping too early. Take your time.
- 10:56If they tell you deep dark secrets on a first or second
- 10:59date, take your time. You have to.
