- 0:02Welcome to another episode of the Narcissist Code.
- 0:04I'm your favorite selfaware narcissist Mr. Lee Hammock,
- 0:07better known as mental illness across all social media
- 0:10platforms. This your first time seeing my
- 0:12face or hearing my lovely voice. I'm a clinically diagnosed
- 0:15narcissist and I use my platform on social media to raise
- 0:18awareness for NPD, get more people into therapy and also
- 0:20validate the victim, survivors and thrivers of said disorder,
- 0:24said Toxic people, said toxic Trace.
- 0:26Today's episode is going to be answering the question, what do
- 0:30narcissists really want? What are narcissists really
- 0:34after? What doing?
- 0:37What are narcissist? What?
- 0:38What do they want? What do we want?
- 0:40Y'all know I'm a diagnosis narcissist.
- 0:42So what do we want? So this is just my perspective
- 0:46Y'all. And before we get deep in
- 0:48today's episode make sure y'all check out the selfloved journal
- 0:51on Amazon. Lee Hammock.
- 0:52I love me and my kids book is done as well.
- 0:54Y'all, I'm so excited about the kids book.
- 0:57OK, So what do nurses really want?
- 0:59And this is going to be a deep episode.
- 1:01So you wear if you wear some deepness here we go.
- 1:03I think a lot of narcissists are.
- 1:06We all know that narcissists. A lot of narcissists are looking
- 1:09for validation right? They are a lot of narcissists.
- 1:13The people are out here searching for validation and all
- 1:17the other good stuff. You know, so, so many nurses are
- 1:20looking for validation that they have a word for.
- 1:24It's called narcissistic supply. Like narcissists need so much
- 1:27validation, they have their own damn special term created for
- 1:31narcissistic supply. Right?
- 1:33So a lot of narcissistic people are looking for that validation.
- 1:37They looking for that. But outside of that, yeah,
- 1:39outside of just the normal narcissist won't supply.
- 1:42They'll do anything for supply, supply, supply, supply, blah,
- 1:45blah, blah, Boo, Boo, Boo, BBB. I think a lot of narcissists are
- 1:50looking for safety, emotional safety.
- 1:54I do think a lot of narcissistic people are looking for someone
- 1:58who makes them feel emotionally safe because you know,
- 2:03narcissism, the NPD, narcissistic personality
- 2:06disorder, it is environmental. It's an environmental disorder.
- 2:10Like you don't, you're not born with it, so your environment
- 2:12influences it. Like a lot of, you know, a lot
- 2:16of people shut down in their childhood because they get hurt.
- 2:21Somebody hurts them. Somebody hurts us.
- 2:23Somebody that we trusted hurts us.
- 2:25So we don't feel emotionally safe.
- 2:26So we emotionally shut down to defend ourselves.
- 2:29So when we grow up and we were adults, we're looking for the
- 2:33emotional safety. We're looking for somebody who
- 2:35provides that emotional safety for us, so we can feel good
- 2:38about ourselves, so we can feel like okay.
- 2:41I can feel so I can finally feel safe.
- 2:44I can finally feel this is what I've been looking for in my
- 2:46childhood. This is what this is what I've
- 2:48been looking for since I was young.
- 2:50But here's the kicker. A lot of times, Darcy says the
- 2:55people they might feel emotionally safe with you
- 2:57because they love bomb you. They idealize you like you're
- 3:00the perfect person for me, like you're you're it for me.
- 3:04You are it for me. I you feel you.
- 3:06I I feel emotionally safe with you.
- 3:08And I get and then I get the invalidation from you. 2 For one
- 3:11I get that emotional. I get that narcissistic supply
- 3:14that validation or not. And I also get the emotional
- 3:17safety that I'm searching for that I'm that I'm searching for.
- 3:20But I know people are going to say like late, then why do they?
- 3:22When somebody is, when they find somebody who loves them for them
- 3:26and this is that, why do they just get rid of them there?
- 3:28Why? Why can't they just treat
- 3:30somebody good Like why when I'm treating?
- 3:32Why when somebody is treating you the best they can treat you
- 3:35and giving you everything that you want and me.
- 3:36Why can't you just treat them okay?
- 3:39Yeah, at the beginning the narcissist feel safe with you,
- 3:42but because we idealize you, we see you as a perfect person, the
- 3:48perfect person for us, the perfect person for us to like.
- 3:52You know what I mean? Give you our emotional safety,
- 3:55but it's kind of like you ever you have to see the movie
- 3:58Inception. We're Leonardo DiCaprio to get
- 4:00this. But in the movie they were in
- 4:02there like made-up city and they had they they hid away.
- 4:07They hid away things they made like they hid away their most
- 4:11important things and just for safety, they hid away their most
- 4:15important things for safety and lock them away.
- 4:19That's what it is right there. Like we lock like we have locked
- 4:22the way our most important things.
- 4:24And then when we find when we feel safe with you, we unlock
- 4:27it, right. We unlock it like Okay.
- 4:29I can feel mostly safe with you. They might share, look a lot of
- 4:32narcissists might actually be honest with you upfront and
- 4:34share some heartfelt things with you like something that happened
- 4:37to them. They lost a friend or dog or
- 4:40they parents hurt them or whatever, whatever it is they
- 4:43might, you know connect with you on the emotional level like
- 4:47that. But here's a kicker.
- 4:49Once they stop viewing you as a perfect person, they no longer
- 4:54feel emotionally, emotionally safe with you.
- 4:56They are. They want the emotional safety.
- 4:58They want that. That you know they want it
- 5:02because then they see it in you. They see they see you as a
- 5:04person who's able to provide it. But then they look you.
- 5:07You're not. Then they realize you're not
- 5:09perfect. And this is.
- 5:10Yeah. Again, I say this all the time,
- 5:11but but what I say you, you're not perfect.
- 5:15I don't mean there's something wrong with you.
- 5:18I think people take offense when I say that.
- 5:20Like there is nothing wrong with you.
- 5:23You're not a perfect person, does not mean that you or
- 5:25something is absent, like you are a horrible person.
- 5:27It just means that you have flaws.
- 5:29We all are flawed. When a narcissistic person,
- 5:33narcissist sees your flaws, they don't feel safe with you
- 5:36anymore. They feel like you lied to them.
- 5:38They feel like you cannot trust you anymore.
- 5:40I want that. Narcissist want the emotional
- 5:42safety, but they also want to be able to trust you.
- 5:45But once you show your flaws, they don't trust you anymore.
- 5:48It's like you lied to them. It's like you told us a lie and
- 5:52now we can never trust you again.
- 5:53That's why. That's one of the main reasons
- 5:56why when you're in a relationship with the nurses, it
- 5:58never goes back to the like the the love, care and affection.
- 6:02Once it goes away, it never goes back.
- 6:04The way to the way it used to be.
- 6:06It never goes back to where how it was in the beginning.
- 6:09It never goes back to that y'all.
- 6:11It never feels the same anymore. Once do once, they don't feel
- 6:15emotionally same for you tomorrow.
- 6:16Once they feel like you lied to them once, they don't trust you
- 6:18anymore. They want to be able to trust
- 6:19you. They want that.
- 6:23They want to be able to trust you.
- 6:26They just do y'all. They want to be able to trust
- 6:29you. You know what I'm saying?
- 6:31That's that's exactly what they want.
- 6:33But that's how it goes in that space.
- 6:35Once they don't trust you anymore, they start to devalue
- 6:38you. They start to treat you badly.
- 6:39Because I don't trust you anymore.
- 6:41I don't feel emotionally safe with you anymore.
- 6:44You're not a perfect person to me.
- 6:46You have flaws. And Lee, how do we get rid of
- 6:49the flaws? Yo, you cannot get rid of the
- 6:51flaws like the flaw. The crazy thing about it is when
- 6:55I say flaws, your flaw could you just you could be just you
- 6:59saying the word no to them. That's what.
- 7:01That's what a flaw to a narcissistic person can be right
- 7:04there. It can be something as simple as
- 7:06you saying the word no, no, you said in a boundary no, you not
- 7:12saying I don't really want to do that.
- 7:14That doesn't work for me. That is, I'm not comfortable
- 7:17with that. It's all that takes.
- 7:19It's all that takes sometimes y'all for them to not look at
- 7:21you as a perfect person anymore. They expected you to be a yes
- 7:24person. Narcissists want yes people.
- 7:26They also want people that are going to consistently validate
- 7:29them and enable their behaviors. They don't want people who are
- 7:32going to push back on them. Y'all.
- 7:34So once you, like I said, once, you don't get them what they
- 7:36want anymore, they get rid of you, they start to devalue you
- 7:38and they typically discard you emotionally and physically.
- 7:42You see what I'm saying? You know what I mean?
- 7:43So it goes into that space right there where you are dealing with
- 7:46a narcissistic person, y'all a toxic person.
- 7:49They're going to keep doing this type of stuff because they feel
- 7:51empowered. They feel emboldened.
- 7:53A lot of narcissists feel emboldened to keep doing this
- 7:55type of stuff. You know what I mean?
- 7:57That's why I just, he, I, I, I, I just, you know, it is, it is
- 8:02wild. And so many people like, take
- 8:05the blame for not being perfect to a narcissist, like once they
- 8:09can't trust you anymore and once they see that you're not going
- 8:11to be just an enabling sycophant, they tend to get rid
- 8:15of you all. If you're not going to be a yes
- 8:17man, they tend to get rid of you.
- 8:18If not, if, if they feel like they can't trust you, they can't
- 8:21be the the, the validation or supply runs out and they don't
- 8:26feel emotionally safe for you anymore.
- 8:27Then they get rid of you and it yeah, you can again, you could
- 8:31just say the word no to them. You can say the word no to them.
- 8:36You cannot laugh at a joke you cannot like.
- 8:39It might be something as simple as you not picking the phone up
- 8:42on the first ring, you not responding to a text messages,
- 8:46to a text message in a timely manner.
- 8:48It could be something as simple as that right there that sets
- 8:51this person off. It could be something as simple
- 8:55as that. But I think a lot of people
- 8:57don't realize a lot of people see it is so much deeper than
- 9:00that. It doesn't have to be deeper
- 9:01than that. Y'all, it could be something as
- 9:03simple as you say no and they're not and they're not looking at
- 9:07you as a yes man anymore. It is not your fault, Y'all.
- 9:11That's why. That's why I wrote my book.
- 9:13The kids book is not your fault, remember?
- 9:15It's not your fault, is it? And that's what goes on y'all.
- 9:19That's what goes on in the mind of a lot of narcissists and
- 9:21toxic people. Y'all, but like, once.
- 9:24They don't. They want the emotional safety
- 9:25they want. Yes, man.
- 9:26They want people that are going to be at their back and call.
- 9:29They don't want people. They want people who are going
- 9:31to enable them. They want people they want to
- 9:33surround themselves, People who are going to enable their
- 9:35behaviors and allow them to do whatever they want to do.
- 9:39That's what it is right there. Y'all that's the point of it
- 9:42right there. That's the goal of it right
- 9:43there. It's like he just keep telling I
- 9:45keep trying to hammer this point home to y'all that, like y'all
- 9:48you can't. So all I had to do was say yes
- 9:52to everything. If you want to say yes to
- 9:54everything to keeps money in your life and make somebody
- 9:56happy, it might be time for you to take a look in the mirror and
- 9:59go to therapy. Like if you want to be a yes
- 10:02person and not set boundaries and just get your get ran over
- 10:05and get bold, like you know, just kind of get thrown around
- 10:08and tossed around in your life because you don't want to lose
- 10:10this person, then it might be time for you to go check, to go
- 10:13talk to a therapist and talk about the some codependency
- 10:16stuff you might have going on. And it's not me trying to victim
- 10:19blame other people like, well, the victim blame me.
- 10:21No, it was not like it's being realistic.
- 10:23If you don't, if you want a person back so much so that you
- 10:26are afraid that you don't want to use the word know anymore
- 10:29towards them or set boundaries, there's something going on.
- 10:31Y'all. I'm not saying you're mentally
- 10:33ill. I'm just saying there's
- 10:34something going on that needs to be worked on, you know?
- 10:38So you have to empower yourself. Y'all.
- 10:40At the end of the day, you absolutely have to empower
- 10:41yourself or narcissistic people. They're going to take advantage
- 10:44of you, they're going to run on top of you.
- 10:45Why wouldn't they? If it works, it works.
- 10:47You know, if I just tell people y'all, keep up the fight, keep,
- 10:51keep moving forward, keep being as strong as you possibly can.
- 10:54Because narcissistic people, if you don't y'all, they just run
- 10:57on top of you. They just are.
- 10:59They want the emotional, they want the emotional safety.
- 11:01And once you cannot provide that anymore, they tend to get rid of
- 11:04you. Y'all anyways, y'all thank you.
