Transcript
- 0:00So are narcissists planning on hurting you from the beginning?
- 0:04Are they planning on doing damage and harming you from the
- 0:08very beginning of the relationship or, or, or does it
- 0:11just happen naturally? Is it just an accident?
- 0:14Does it just come out of nowhere?
- 0:18That's what we talked about today.
- 0:19Y'all, Of course, if you're new here, I'm Lee Hammock.
- 0:21I'm a diagnosed narcissist and welcome to another episode of
- 0:24The Narcissist Code. Yeah, I love the narcissist code
- 0:44intro, but I told you before, we're transitioning over to the
- 0:48mental illness podcast here pretty soon.
- 0:50Longer videos, interviews galore.
- 0:54Just be ready to tune in and you know, support the the people bid
- 0:58being interviewed and whatnot. But yeah, to answer the question
- 1:02at hand, are narcissistic people planning on hurting you from the
- 1:07beginning? It depends.
- 1:11I know I just made y'all mad that you like Lee.
- 1:13What the hell? Why'd you do?
- 1:14Why would you do that to us? No, it really does depend,
- 1:17right? Because are there narcissists
- 1:20out there that absolutely from the very beginning of the
- 1:23relationship that plan on hurting you?
- 1:26Yes, there are a ton, a metric ton of narcissistic people that
- 1:31absolutely think about hurting you from the very beginning.
- 1:34Like it's from the word go. They're thinking about doing
- 1:37harm to you and putting you through things they're thinking
- 1:40about doing damage to, they're thinking about, they're thinking
- 1:43about all the insidious things that they can do to you that
- 1:47they can get pleasure from, right?
- 1:48A lot of them are doing that. There are a lot of narcissists
- 1:51out there that do that, that are actively pursuing pain, that are
- 1:56actively pursuing hurt. They're actively pursuing doing
- 2:00damage to you from the from the onset.
- 2:03And it's not just you. If a narcissist plans on hurting
- 2:07you from the beginning or a psychopath, right, if they plan
- 2:10on hurting you from the beginning, guess what?
- 2:14Everybody's going to get it. It's not just you.
- 2:17There are so many people who of course it's happening to you.
- 2:21So you, you're going to personalize it because it's
- 2:23happening to you, but it's not just you.
- 2:27Everybody that has been in a relationship with this person
- 2:29has gotten it in some way, shape or form.
- 2:33So many people that I talked to, so many people that are in my
- 2:35support group, the mental healers that you can find at
- 2:37mentalillness.net, so many people that are in those groups
- 2:41and things like that really like really just get into their minds
- 2:44is like, it's just me. They only treat me like this
- 2:47because they tell you that, don't they?
- 2:49A lot of narcissist people will tell you that like it's just
- 2:51you. I'm only treating you like this.
- 2:54No one else gets treated like this because no one else is a
- 2:57horrible human being like you. No one else deserves to be
- 3:00treated like this but you. They'll absolutely, 100% put it
- 3:04directly on to you. And so of course you're going to
- 3:06start thinking it's just you. It's just me.
- 3:09I, I didn't do I, there's nothing I can do to make this
- 3:12person happy. It's just me.
- 3:13It's just me. You some saying they want you to
- 3:15personalize it because then you take accountability for the
- 3:19stuff that you are going through.
- 3:21You take accountability for them abusing you or them treating you
- 3:24like shit for them hurting you and things of that nature.
- 3:27You take accountability for that right there and you see, you see
- 3:30where you see where it goes in that point right there.
- 3:33You know what I mean? But not every single
- 3:37narcissistic person is the same. I think we can all agree on
- 3:41that. I think there's so many people
- 3:44out there, so many narcissistic people out here that are not
- 3:47planning on hurting you from the beginning.
- 3:50It just gets that way. And let me, let me reel it in
- 3:54really quick because I know as soon as I say that there are,
- 3:58are a lot of people out there who will take the, what I said,
- 4:00right? They'll hear me say that and
- 4:02they'll be like, well, I should give them another chance to that
- 4:04since they didn't mean to hurt me rightly.
- 4:06No, that's not what I said. I did not say that.
- 4:11So no, don't give them another chance based on one thing I just
- 4:14said in this video. No, absolutely not.
- 4:17I'm saying that all even though they don't, they don't plan on
- 4:20hurting you from the beginning. They still do.
- 4:24They still put you through it. They still take you through
- 4:27there. You see what I'm saying?
- 4:27They still will put you there. They will still put you through
- 4:30the pain and suffering because that's just the patterns that
- 4:33narcissistic people have, right? So don't let me saying don't let
- 4:37Lee Hammock saying, well, not all narcissists plan on hurting
- 4:39you from the beginning. Don't let me saying that make
- 4:42you feel some empathy or some sympathy towards that person and
- 4:46give them another chance. Wait.
- 4:48Well, Lee, that you right? They said they didn't mean to
- 4:50hurt me, so I should just give them another chance.
- 4:52No, that's not what I'm saying either.
- 4:53Come on y'all, we got it. Makes my head hurt.
- 4:57I know there's so many people are searching for love.
- 4:59So many people are searching for affection.
- 5:01So many people are searching, searching, searching, right,
- 5:04searching. And you see where it ends up is.
- 5:06You see where it gets us. You see where it gets you.
- 5:09It gets you in this toxic relationship dynamic that is
- 5:11extremely difficult to leave. It just does.
- 5:15It gets you in this space where it's hard as hell to leave.
- 5:18It's hard as hell to cut this person off.
- 5:20It's hard as hell to leave this person alone because you said
- 5:23you get so embedded and they they get so embedded in your
- 5:27life, it's hard to dig them out. Like a damn tick, like a little
- 5:31narcissistic tick. They got the little 8 legs like
- 5:34an arachnid. And they Burrow deeply within,
- 5:36deep within your heart. And it's hard to get them the
- 5:39hell up out of there because they promise you a few, they
- 5:42promise you a future, they promise you better treatment.
- 5:44They promise you better behaviors.
- 5:46They did so they've done so much for, they've done so many,
- 5:49promised so many things to you that it gets, it can be
- 5:51difficult to just cut them off, right?
- 5:54But that's what I'm saying right now, no matter what, whether or
- 5:58not they meant to hurt you or not, they still do.
- 6:02So the intent sometimes does not matter.
- 6:05I have actually have a shirt, right?
- 6:07I don't have it on right now. I wish I had it on.
- 6:08It'd be perfect. It's called impact.
- 6:10It says impact over intent, right?
- 6:14Because the impact is the most important part, the intent.
- 6:17They could have good intentions. I want to love this girl and
- 6:20treat her, treat her the best, and then they cheat on you.
- 6:23The impact of it, if they hurt you, they might not have
- 6:25intended to hurt you from the very beginning.
- 6:27They might have intended to cheat on you from the very
- 6:29beginning, but the impact was you're hurt.
- 6:32Impact over intent. So the intent does not matter.
- 6:35You see what I'm saying? That does not matter a lot of
- 6:37times. Sometimes you can bring it in,
- 6:39right? And I try not to speak in
- 6:41absolutes. Sometimes it doesn't matter, but
- 6:43sometimes it does. Sometimes it absolutely does
- 6:45matter when you're dealing with somebody.
- 6:47It has this personality type, right?
- 6:49It absolutely does matter when you have somebody that's going
- 6:52through something like this and you have to deal with them.
- 6:55So are they planning on hurting you from the beginning?
- 6:59Like I said earlier, it really depends And do it.
- 7:04Look, and this right here, can't I know what question I'm gonna
- 7:08get? The question just popped into my
- 7:09head so I'm gonna go off script wooly.
- 7:12Can you have a healthy long term relationship with a narcissist
- 7:16even if they don't plan on hurting you?
- 7:18I personally ask someone diagnosed with NPD.
- 7:23Don't think healthy in relationship.
- 7:26Healthy and narcissist go together.
- 7:29I don't think the words healthy relationship and narcissist go
- 7:32together. They don't.
- 7:34I just don't believe that to be true.
- 7:36Right, Bully? You're in therapy.
- 7:38Would you say you and your wife have a healthy relationship?
- 7:40It's healthier than ever than it ever used to be.
- 7:43I promise you, some people look at our relationship saying that
- 7:45y'all are in a healthy relationship.
- 7:47But they're still. Yeah, like most relationship,
- 7:49there's still going to be issues and problems and things like
- 7:50that. But we address them in a
- 7:53healthier way, Right? You see what I'm saying?
- 7:56I don't think. And I've been in therapy for
- 7:57over 8 years, over 8 years, over 100 therapy appointments now.
- 8:03I've been doing that to put the work in.
- 8:05You see what I'm saying? I put the work in.
- 8:07I've done that. I've I've won't, yeah, I'm not
- 8:10going to stop putting the work in because it benefits me and
- 8:13the work they put the work that I put in that benefits me,
- 8:16benefits other people as well. Other people benefit from the
- 8:20work that I do on myself. So me, I can have a healthier
- 8:23relationship because I put the work in.
- 8:26Is your partner or your ace or your husband, your wife?
- 8:29Are they willing to put the work in?
- 8:31Willie? They said they would.
- 8:32I don't give a about to say I don't give AF.
- 8:35I don't give a damn what they said.
- 8:38Are they doing it right? Is them putting the work in
- 8:42contingent upon you staying? If they, if I'll put the work
- 8:47in, if you stay with me, I'll go to therapy.
- 8:49If you stay with me, that means that they're only going to
- 8:52therapy to they, they're only going to therapy because of you.
- 8:57They're not. I feel like they have to be
- 8:58doing, they have to have a greater purpose to go to
- 9:02therapy. I feel like the purpose has to
- 9:03be greater than just keep getting keeping in the
- 9:06relationship, keep the relationship going.
- 9:08I believe that's what it has to happen right there in these
- 9:10situations, these scenarios, You know what I'm saying?
- 9:12I believe that that has to be true.
- 9:15That has to be, this is not a back and forth type of thing.
- 9:18They have to have a bigger reason to go to therapy and work
- 9:20on themselves other than just keeping a relationship together.
- 9:23Because if the relationship falters, they're not, they're
- 9:25just going to stop going. So that means that they really
- 9:28didn't want to seek help. They were just going to therapy
- 9:31to keep you there. So, so healthy relationships
- 9:34with narcissists. I don't believe that they truly
- 9:35exist, right? Especially with a pathological
- 9:38narcissist that has done 0 work, right?
- 9:41I know we got off. I know we got off on a tangent,
- 9:43but I just had, I had to answer those questions right there,
- 9:45y'all, because I know that they're going to come up.
- 9:48I know that there are people out there that are going to watch
- 9:50this video and hear me say, well, Lee, they didn't mean to
- 9:53hurt me. So I should have given another,
- 9:54another chance. I have to dig deep into that.
- 9:56I hope y'all understand that, right?
- 10:00Of course you do. Y'all been ride with me for
- 10:02years, five years y'all. We've grown up together on
- 10:05YouTube. That's why I like in Spotify and
- 10:08Apple, Apple Pocket, wherever you watch this at, we've kind of
- 10:11grown up together and y'all seen the changes that I've made in my
- 10:13personality dynamic, right? Y'all see how my viewpoints have
- 10:16shifted on certain things and that's why I feel like I have to
- 10:19do the interviews, right? I'm still going to do narcissist
- 10:21videos here and there, but most of the stuff is going to be
- 10:23interviews. Like I have 9 interviews
- 10:25recorded already. I the 10th 1 is planned for the
- 10:27planned tomorrow. So I've got a lot of interviews
- 10:30coming up with people all across the mental health spectrum are
- 10:32going to be answering some of these questions in greater
- 10:34detail than I ever could, right? So that's what I'm telling y'll
- 10:38whether or not they intend to hurt you from the beginning is
- 10:41irrelevant. All the behavior is OK.
- 10:43We'll wrap it up with this, this next line right here.
- 10:46Whether or not they they intend to hurt you from the beginning
- 10:49can truly be irrelevant. But you have to ask yourself the
- 10:52question right here. Are you OK with the behaviors?
- 10:57Are you OK with being treated like like less of a person?
- 11:01Are you OK with getting the bare minimum?
- 11:03If that getting the bare minimum sometimes not even all the time,
- 11:07y'all? This is the crazy thing about a
- 11:08lot of narcissists. When they offer you the bare
- 11:10minimum, they don't even give you the bare minimum all the
- 11:13time, right? They offer you the bare minimum
- 11:15sometimes right? Sometimes they offer you the
- 11:18bare minimum not even all the time, which is horrible.
- 11:21I know you like well damn lady, they offer me the bare minimum,
- 11:23but it's the bare minimum. I don't want that.
- 11:26I don't need it. I don't care.
- 11:27I don't care for that. I don't care for this.
- 11:30So you have to ask yourself that question right there.
- 11:33Is this OK? Do I want this?
- 11:36Whether they're in, whether, whether they intend to hurt me
- 11:38or not from the beginning, I'm still hurting.
- 11:43I'm still hurt. I'm still sad.
- 11:46I'm still a victim of abuse. I'm sometimes I'm a, I'm still a
- 11:50victim of violence, right? Emotional, mental, physical
- 11:53violence. You see what I'm saying?
- 11:56So you have to ask yourself, answer those questions for
- 11:58yourself right there, because those questions are important.
- 12:01Like you have to go out there and seek the help.
- 12:03You have to go out there and put the work in.
- 12:04You have to go out there and be empowered and strong as you
- 12:07possibly can be. But I'm telling you, narcissist,
- 12:09they'll keep it going from the very beginning.
- 12:11But if they, even if they don't intend to hurt you from the
- 12:14beginning, something happens in their minds that makes the
- 12:16relationship shift and then they start hurting you.
- 12:19And then they, once they start hurting you, they very rarely
- 12:22let up on hurting you. Could there, could there still
- 12:25be some good times after the relationship starts to go to
- 12:27hell? Yes.
- 12:29That's what keeps a lot of people with narcissists.
- 12:31They're still going to be good times, right?
- 12:34There's still a good time. We had good times.
- 12:36Like we still, we, you see what I'm saying?
- 12:38That's what keeps a lot of people there.
- 12:39That's what keeps a lot of people involved with them
- 12:41because they were good times. And so many people are living
- 12:44off of the good times. So many people are doing it
- 12:48right now. So many people are battling and
- 12:50living off the good times. Is can be very difficult to do
- 12:53anything else to move forward or whatnot.
- 12:55Yeah anyways. I truly appreciate every single
