- 1:05actions. But yes, the crazy talk crazy.
- 1:09Why do narcissists love to make you feel like you're going
- 1:11crazy? Because y'all, it's powerful.
- 1:15It makes them feel powerful. It really does like with a
- 1:18narcissist is making you feel like you're losing your mind
- 1:21when you are confused, confused like they take power, they take
- 1:28pride in it. You know what I mean?
- 1:30That's exactly what happens. They are, they feel extremely
- 1:35empowered in this situation to just feel as powerful as they
- 1:38possibly can. This is how it goes.
- 1:40This is the narcissist mindset right here.
- 1:43And I tell people this to people all the time.
- 1:44Like when you are dealing with a narcissist, a toxic person,
- 1:46whoever, you have to understand this.
- 1:49You have to remain grounded. You have to remain in your
- 1:52reality. You have to just stay as
- 1:54powerful as you can because they benefit from your confusion.
- 1:58They benefit from your from the way you feel.
- 2:01They benefit from your craziness, they benefit from it
- 2:05y'all? So they're like, that's why I
- 2:06tell people all the time when you feel like you're going
- 2:09crazy, they feel like they are winning.
- 2:13That's it right there. When you feel like you are going
- 2:16crazy, they feel like they are winning because that's the
- 2:20mindset. That's it.
- 2:20That's how they feel powerful. Like your confusion, you not you
- 2:24questioning your reality, you self gaslighting you just
- 2:29thinking that you are the problem.
- 2:30They win, they benefit from it. Most narcissists are going to do
- 2:34things that benefit them in some way shape or form.
- 2:37They just are. Is it.
- 2:38You know, narcissism in and of itself is a selfish mindset.
- 2:41Point blank period even not just narcissism in and of itself.
- 2:46The disorder is just I'm I'm me. I'm me and what I think and what
- 2:52I do is most important, right? So that's the mindset, that's
- 2:55the mentality of so many toxic, abusive, narcissistic people.
- 2:59And I say that to say this. You can win.
- 3:02You can, you can win. This is what we talked about in
- 3:05my, my, my support group called the mental healthers, right?
- 3:08This is what we talked about, staying grounded in reality,
- 3:13like getting clear. The clearer you are, the more
- 3:18clarity you have, the better your life will be.
- 3:23I promise you. That's how it goes.
- 3:25The clearer you are, the better your life will be.
- 3:30You. You see what I'm saying?
- 3:30Because if they cannot keep you confused, if they can't
- 3:33manipulate you, what, what power do they have other than being
- 3:38maybe, maybe, maybe if the narcissist is a, you know, male
- 3:40person and whatnot, maybe other than being bigger and stronger
- 3:43than you, what other power do they have?
- 3:46You know, when people resort to physical, they typically have
- 3:49lost the emotional and mental part of they had, they've lost
- 3:52their mental and emotional control.
- 3:54You're not confused anymore. You're clear, you have clear
- 3:56boundaries. You have clear, you know, if you
- 3:58have clear boundaries, you know, you know, typically you avoid
- 4:00narcissism in the 1st place, but this is what happens.
- 4:05Like you're confusing you not understanding up from down left
- 4:08from right, like you not understanding that you not
- 4:10getting it. I promise you, promise you
- 4:12promise you it benefits them greatly.
- 4:14They love it. Narcissists love it.
- 4:16I'm just being realistic. They love it like it just, and
- 4:21some of them treat it like a big game.
- 4:24Some of them treat this type of stuff like a big game.
- 4:25When they're hiding your keys, when they're doing things, when
- 4:28they're hiding things and stealing things and helping you
- 4:30look forward, knowing that they know, knowing that they know.
- 4:34They already know that you're not going to find it because
- 4:35they have it in their pocket. Let's say your wallet is
- 4:38missing. Where's my wallet at?
- 4:39Babe, I can't find my wallet anywhere.
- 4:40I said it right here on the table.
- 4:41There's nobody else been in the house but being you.
- 4:43Where's my wallet at? I don't know I'll help you look
- 4:45for it whole time the wallet is in your back pocket.
- 4:48You know you're just a Kiki Ken. They play these type of games
- 4:52because they when you feel like you're going crazy, they win.
- 4:56When you feel like you're going crazy, you reach out to your
- 4:58friends and family members and tell them sometimes that you you
- 5:00feel like you're going crazy. You act, you start sometimes,
- 5:03and this is not me calling you crazy y'all sometimes you start
- 5:07to act crazy, you start to get out of character, you start to
- 5:11do things that you normally wouldn't do.
- 5:13And that even benefits the narcissist, right?
- 5:16Because if you're stalking them, like you end up stalking them or
- 5:20following them or bugging their car record.
- 5:24If you end up doing a lot of this stuff that you normally
- 5:26wouldn't do, you're yelling and screaming at them on camera.
- 5:29You become you look abusive. You haven't reactive abuse
- 5:32episodes. They then they have it on
- 5:33camera. They can blackmail you.
- 5:35You're yelling and screaming at them in public.
- 5:37They they're doing a dog muscles and trying to trigger you on
- 5:41purpose and you look, you look like the abuser and they love
- 5:45that. Y'all you feeling like you're
- 5:48going crazy, you question your reality allows them to be the
- 5:53victim. It allows them to play the
- 5:55victim. It allows them to be in to be in
- 5:58to stay and be steeped in victimhood.
- 6:01And I'm just telling you that they love it.
- 6:04They love it. Narcissistic people love it, so
- 6:09that's why I'm just telling y'all if they can't y'all.
- 6:12One of my most popular sayings is if I can trigger you, I can
- 6:16control you. I created that.
- 6:18You see somebody else saying those exact, that exact words.
- 6:20I made that statement up like nobody has said it before.
- 6:23But if they cannot trigger you, they cannot control you, right?
- 6:28So they love to learn what makes you tick.
- 6:30Even from the beginning of a relationship, narcissists love
- 6:33to learn what makes you tick. They love to learn what sets you
- 6:38off and makes you go a certain type of way.
- 6:40What makes you act a certain type of way, What makes you get
- 6:42out of character the easiest. They love the shortcuts to
- 6:46manipulation. Tell me your deepest, darkest
- 6:49secrets. I'll tell you mine if you show.
- 6:50I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours.
- 6:54And then you share and they focus on yours.
- 6:56They don't. They don't share anything.
- 6:58You know what I mean? They show up to you.
- 7:00They show up to the first date in a red shirt with a red with a
- 7:03red shirt and a red flag bib. You know what I mean?
- 7:08With a red mask on. Sorry, I didn't see you there.
- 7:12It's like you know how to you know how to the brides have
- 7:15what? What do you call when you get
- 7:16married? The what do you call it?
- 7:17The the Ville. The Ville.
- 7:19They show up to the first date with a red flag Ville.
- 7:21Oh, and then they take it off. It happens, y'all, it happens.
- 7:28I promise you. It happens to so many people, So
- 7:30in these situations, you need to be grounded in reality, Lee.
- 7:34How the hell do we get grounded? You keep saying, but you're not
- 7:36giving us any tips. I hate you, Lee.
- 7:38Why you hate me? I did nothing to you.
- 7:40You know what I mean? In order to stay grounded, you
- 7:44like this is the easiest way to stay grounded right here.
- 7:46Write down the truth, y'all. Record like do I?
- 7:50I've, I've in my support group, Y'all I tell we, we talk about
- 7:54journaling. Of course everybody can journal.
- 7:56You can write stuff down, but a lot, a lot of people are not
- 7:59good at writing. But you know what?
- 8:00Everybody has one of these video diary video journals.

- 8:44I'm pretty sure you can add it after you record a video.
- 8:47If you record a video, you can add it.
- 8:49That's how you stay grounded in reality.
- 8:51Tell yourself the truth. When things are going on, when
- 8:53things are happening and whatnot.
- 8:55Tell, look, tell yourself the truth.
- 8:58I look I would just yelled and screamed at for no reason.
- 9:01I know I didn't do anything, but my partner keeps trying to
- 9:03convince me that I said something that I did something
- 9:05that that I'm cheating that I'm lying, that I'm being
- 9:08manipulated, but I know I haven't done anything wrong.
- 9:11I just did. I just recorded a video right
- 9:13there, y'all. So I recorded that video.
- 9:14I'm gonna go to my phone. I'm gonna hit that video

- 9:36group, the mental healers, you can share in the group and
- 9:39whatnot. Yeah.
- 9:40It just, it just helps you stay grounded in reality because you
- 9:43feeling crazy, you acting crazy, you thinking you're crazy.
- 9:46It directly benefits them and takes away it strips the power
- 9:49from you, right. So they're going to do things to
- 9:51help keep you confused. They're going to they love it
- 9:54when you're questioning your reality when they can gaslight
- 9:57you right in front of your face, right, But they can gaslight you
- 10:00and just tell you I've never had, you know, I don't use cocoa
- 10:03butter lotion. I've never I don't, I never wear
- 10:05cocoa butter lotion ever. This is cocoa butter lotion.
- 10:11Y'all wait, that's that's cocoa butter lotion.
- 10:13No, this is not this is not cocoa butter lotion.
- 10:16It's just butter lotion. Like, goodness gracious, you're
- 10:19crazy. You're just saying it's little
- 10:21stuff like that. I know that sounds like a just
- 10:23an obviously silly example, but it's little things like that to
- 10:26have you questioning yourself. It's little things like that to
- 10:28have you question your reality. It can start with small stuff.
- 10:31It's not always. Yeah, gaslighting is not always
- 10:34going to be huge. There's not always going to be
- 10:36these big grandiose examples of gaslighting.
- 10:39They're going to be little things about gaslighting as
- 10:40well. They're going to be little
- 10:42examples of gaslighting, little examples of manipulation, little
- 10:44examples of things like that. This is part of the process of
- 10:48healing and growing. This is part of the process of
- 10:50being as strong and powerful as you possibly can.
- 10:52This is part of the process of growth and healing and just
- 10:56standing in your truth, standing in your power.
