- 0:00How do you deflate or hurt a narcissistic person's ego?
- 0:04How do you put them in a place? How do you bring them down a
- 0:09notch or two or three or four or five?
- 0:11That's what we're talking about today, y'all.
- 0:14If you're new here, my name is Lee Hammock.
- 0:15I'm a diagnosed narcissist who here to just spread the words
- 0:19and give you the perspective of a narcissist.
- 0:21And welcome to another episode of The Narcissist Code.
- 0:40Bam, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back folks.
- 0:45Yes, how on earth do you deflate a narcissist ego?
- 0:49So in this today's video y'all, we're going to go over a few
- 0:52different topics, a few not a few different topics, few
- 0:54different tactics or techniques to deflate a narcissist ego.
- 0:59If I if you imagine a narcissist ego, it's like a big balloon,
- 1:03right? It's like a big ass inflated
- 1:06balloon and it's easy to pop. I think a lot of people get into
- 1:10their minds that narcissist egos are difficult to to shatter or
- 1:14difficult to hit. No, that is absolutely not the
- 1:18case. Narcissistic people's egos tend
- 1:21to be very fragile. Fragile.
- 1:25They tend to be very fragile and easy to pop.
- 1:28So today we're going to go over the the top ways.
- 1:31I'm gonna miss a few, but the top ways from the perspective of
- 1:34a narcissism, how to hit a narcissist's ego the most.
- 1:38So the very first way to hurt a narcissist ego, to deflate their
- 1:42ego, to make them expose themselves, is using the word
- 1:48no. That's it right there.
- 1:53Yeah. Say the word no.
- 1:56Now, let me, let me reel it back in a little bit.
- 1:59Let me let me reel the fishing line in a little bit.
- 2:02Will you say the word no to a narcissist?
- 2:04A lot of times they can snap, right?
- 2:06A lot of narcissistic people could absolutely lose their damn
- 2:10minds if and when you say the word no to them because their
- 2:13egos cannot handle the word no. Their egos cannot handle the
- 2:18rejection. Their egos cannot handle or
- 2:21fathom the pain that you bring to them, the shame that you, the
- 2:24shame door that you open up and bring into their lives.
- 2:28Their little egos cannot handle that, right?
- 2:31So they can't handle it. They don't know what to do with
- 2:33it. So they get angry, they lash
- 2:34out. Or they'll try to turn it, turn
- 2:36it into a yes. They'll try to take your no and
- 2:40flip it into a yes somehow, because this is the mind of a
- 2:44narcissist. This is how narcissist minds
- 2:46work. They can't stand the word no.
- 2:48We, I, me, I cannot stand the word no.
- 2:52So I tried to avoid it at all costs.
- 2:54But if I get one woo, woo. So that's the, to me, that's the
- 3:00quickest way to deflate a narcissist's ego by using that 2
- 3:03letter word. If that 2 letter word carries so
- 3:06much, it carries so much, so much power, so much pop to it.
- 3:11That's why they can't handle it. So that's the quickest way, the
- 3:14most efficient way, the fastest way to deflate a narcissist's
- 3:18ego is literally to say the word no.
- 3:21And that that right there requires your action.
- 3:23That right there requires you to take action against them, right?
- 3:26It's not, it's not really taking action against them.
- 3:29The word no is a boundary. You might not be interested in
- 3:31them, whatever it is, right? So using the word no absolutely
- 3:35can help deflate a narcissist's ego.
- 3:38Now, the next way is going to require a little like the next
- 3:41way doesn't even require action from you.
- 3:44It just requires you, you to be you.
- 3:46The next way to deflate a narcissist's ego it's yeah, this
- 3:50is going the next way to deflate a narcissist ego is just to look
- 3:56better than them. Y'all, if you are more
- 4:01physically attractive or more conventionally, let's say
- 4:04conventionally attractive, because attraction is in the in
- 4:06the eye of the beholder, right? What I find attractive, who I
- 4:09find attractive might be very different than what who you find
- 4:12attractive, right? You might not find me
- 4:14attractive. And they're cool.
- 4:15They're cool. Or is it?
- 4:16That's you telling me no. Go back to number 1.
- 4:19You just told me no. So now I'm about to lose my
- 4:20mind. You told me, Leo, are you
- 4:21attractive? No, I'm about to lose it.
- 4:25I'm about to lose my mind now. But you see.
- 4:29But you see how it goes there right there, y'all?
- 4:31So using the word no is efficient.
- 4:34I mean, using the word no is efficient, but just you
- 4:37naturally being more conventionally attractive than
- 4:39them and them believing that you are more conventionally
- 4:41attractive can hurt their can hurt their egos.
- 4:44So even you don't even yeah, you don't even have to be in a
- 4:47relationship with them. This could be your friend, your
- 4:49narcissistic friends ego gets gets deflated every time you are
- 4:53around them. If you're more conventionally
- 4:55attractive than them. It really is.
- 4:59If you if you're more conventionally attractive than
- 5:01that narcissistic person, you naturally deflate their ego.
- 5:04You're like a natural, you're like a natural repellent.
- 5:07You know how we got those? It's about to be mosquito season
- 5:10right here in, in North Carolina, right?
- 5:12We had to spray that in tick seeds, whether to spray
- 5:14ourselves with ticks and mosquitoes and stuff like that.
- 5:16You had, you had that natural repellent, that natural
- 5:19narcissist repellent, right? So a lot of times, even if you
- 5:23just are more convincingly attractive than them, they will
- 5:26absolutely, it absolutely hits their ego.
- 5:28They hate to be around you. A lot of times they'll start to
- 5:30pick on you, you know, if you hurt their ego, they'll try,
- 5:33they'll try to make you the butt of the joke.
- 5:34They'll pick on you. They'll just try to make,
- 5:36they'll try to hurt your feelings and things like that.
- 5:38So you'll know if you hurt their egos, some of them will just try
- 5:41to not be around you at all. They're like, I don't really
- 5:43like, I don't really like them. I don't want to be around there.
- 5:45Y'all, Y'all, Is it just me or is it, is it just me that don't
- 5:48like them or is there everybody else?
- 5:50You see what I'm saying? But that's, that's, that's how
- 5:53it goes right there. Y'all.
- 5:55The next way to deflate a narcissist's ego, y'all, Of
- 5:59course I talk about looks. The next way is to be more
- 6:02successful than them. We talked about looks, but being
- 6:06more successful than a narcissist absolutely deflates
- 6:09their ego. It pops it like a damn balloon.
- 6:13It really, really does like your success, your education.
- 6:17Like success. I can.
- 6:18You can mean it can be jobs. It could be whatever it is,
- 6:21right school, your education level, your job, your promotion
- 6:24level, whatever it is, right? Your career, whatever it is, if
- 6:29that narcissistic person deems you that's more successful than
- 6:35them, you are. You are in for it buddy.
- 6:37You are a cruising for a you are cruising for a narcissistic
- 6:41bruising because they come in for you bucko.
- 6:43They are coming for you because how dare you be more successful
- 6:47than me. How dare you to.
- 6:49Your success makes their egos hurt.
- 6:52It pops their ego. It could pop their ego like a
- 6:54balloon, like I just said, like and you don't say again, you're
- 6:58not like you don't even have to be trying to deflate their ego
- 7:01here, y'all. You don't even have to be trying
- 7:03to deflate their ego. Your success just naturally does
- 7:07it again. It's kind of like spraying them
- 7:11down. Spraying it down spray you like
- 7:13your, your success is a natural narcissistic ego deflator.
- 7:17Naturally. It naturally does it.
- 7:19You naturally do it right. So don't be like I said, don't
- 7:23be afraid of success. This is why a lot of times you
- 7:26hear this right here, right? You hear this all the time in
- 7:29the, the narcissistic abuse like niche, right?
- 7:33About how narcissists don't celebrate your success.
- 7:36This is why because they're jealous of it, because they
- 7:39don't want to see you be successful.
- 7:42They don't want you to be successful.
- 7:44They don't want you out here doing this type of stuff.
- 7:47They don't want you being successful because it makes them
- 7:50feel bad. This is why they don't This is
- 7:52why they don't celebrate your wins with you, right?
- 7:56They don't celebrate your wins. They always try to make always
- 7:59try to find something about you to nitpick or not show up or
- 8:03make the situation about them. So your successes, your whatever
- 8:07it is, will deflate their ego. And you can tell because they
- 8:10they try to make it about them or they try to invalidate,
- 8:14invalidate your success. They try to bring you down
- 8:17because they're feeling down about themselves.
- 8:19That's the big one right there, y'all.
- 8:20That's your success. Absolutely.
- 8:22Make their egos, make their egos hurt.
- 8:25Do do, do, do, do, do, do The next one that we're going to go
- 8:31over right now, y'all, This is right here.
- 8:34Let me preface by saying it. Let me preface y'all prepare
- 8:37y'all by saying this. Use discretion and be careful
- 8:41when you do the next one. Use discretion and be absolutely
- 8:44careful because the next the the the probably the craziest
- 8:48without the craziest way. Probably the the biggest way to
- 8:53hurt a narcissist ego outside of saying the word no is literally
- 8:56to expose them. It really is like if you expose
- 9:02a narcissist, their egos pop. If you expose them, if you
- 9:08reveal what you have been experiencing, if you tell the
- 9:12world or whoever it is that you about what you're going through,
- 9:16they could it absolutely. It not only could cause a pop,
- 9:21their ego deflate their ego. This could literally cause the
- 9:24narcissistic injury, right? This gets shattered their ego
- 9:27that not this is not popping it like a balloon, right?
- 9:29This is like throwing a brick through a, a big, a big piece of
- 9:32glass is going to shatter the whole thing.
- 9:34And there's no, once you shatter their ego like that, there's no
- 9:38putting it back together. There's no putting it back
- 9:41together. Like once you cause a vicious,
- 9:44vicious narcissistic injury like this, like by exposing them or
- 9:49threatening to expose them, you really got to expose them.
- 9:51I'm going to tell everybody what you did.
- 9:53They can lose their mind. That's why I say you have to be
- 9:54careful because reputation is everything for a narcissist,
- 9:58right? Reputation is like air.
- 10:00They cannot live without it. They want to breathe it in.
- 10:02They want to just, I need that. I need my reputation to be the,
- 10:05I need my reputation to precede me.
- 10:07I needed this, I need that. So you have to prepare for that
- 10:10'cause if you expose a narcissistic person, they
- 10:14absolutely will, Some of them absolutely will lose their minds
- 10:18on you and try to hurt you and harm you because there's so much
- 10:21shame that is so is like you are already bringing shame to me
- 10:24because you know who I am, right?
- 10:26You already know who I am, so you bring a shame to me just
- 10:31like to from other people hurts so damn bad.
- 10:34It really, really just destroys that narcissistic person.
- 10:39So if you're trying to destroy them, of course, exposing them,
- 10:41like I said, when I say expose, it doesn't necessarily mean like
- 10:45on a massive scale, right? It doesn't always mean putting
- 10:49it on TikTok and you know it going viral and 75 million
- 10:53people see see what you experienced and then you expose
- 10:56them that way, right? It doesn't always mean that
- 10:59exposing them could just be telling your brother or your
- 11:02sister or your mom or your cousin or your Co worker what's
- 11:06going on. That's all exposing them because
- 11:09it doesn't have to be on a a macro level.
- 11:12It doesn't have to be on a big level.
- 11:13It could be on a micro level, small level, right?
- 11:16You can expose it, but it's big to them.
- 11:17All of it is big to them, right? And sometimes it doesn't even
- 11:20matter the level of exposure. They just don't want to be
- 11:23exposed, right? They really, truly do not want
- 11:27to be exposed. So like I said, if you going to
- 11:29expose them, just be careful because people just lose.
- 11:32Yeah, people lose their damn minds.
- 11:33People cannot take being exposed.
- 11:35People cannot. People cannot handle others
- 11:38knowing what they're doing. They want to be behind the
- 11:41scenes abusive. A lot of them don't want to be
- 11:43the public abuser because that looks horrible.
- 11:46It sounds horrible. It is horrible, right?
- 11:48It don't look. It is horrible.
- 11:51You know what I mean? So exposing them is probably the
- 11:54most vicious way yo, you know, in that and whatnot to hurt, to
- 11:59deflate their ego, to bring them that down a notch, you know, but
- 12:03it's just also there's also, there's little ways to if you
- 12:06make more money than them, deflate their ego.
- 12:09If you put them in that place, if you just tell them that
- 12:11they're not good enough, if you tell them that they're not as
- 12:14good as they think they are, you're, you know, you deflate
- 12:17their ego by talking about their looks.
- 12:18You can talk about their height, their weight, whatever it is,
- 12:20right? Look at this somebody that's
- 12:21childish, right? You can deflate their ego by
- 12:24just destroying their identity. You know, if you bring their
- 12:27identity into question, you can absolutely deflate their ego.
- 12:31You make them into like you, not who you think you are.
- 12:33You not as good as they think you are.
- 12:36You understand how it goes y'all.
- 12:38You absolutely understand how it goes.
