One of the more frustrating things about living with a narcissist is the constant petty lies. It gets to the point where you can't believe anything. I believe that this is on purpose, but why? What purpose does it serve them?
@Narcopath_UK
Narcissists have a very small playbook with a limited vocabulary. They use the same tactics over and over. The only thing that is new is time and location. First, learn their tactics. And then, as you enter a new situation, observe how they apply them. Learn their patterns.
@JonRhodesUK
Absolutely not. They live in a world of torment, constantly looking for validation. They're constantly altering personas to fit in with others. It must be exhausting. They can't relax, always busy doing nothing. No joy or peace. Always chaos. Always passive-aggressive.

Misunderstood is right. Please don't think we're being rude. We're not ,if you don't get it, you're not for us. We're actually pleasant people to be around.
It seems to me that there are plenty of people who recognize the traits of the malignant narcissist. The only advice I read is to get out. That's not always possible and, in some cases, impossible due to financial reasons, etc. So if we can't leave, what advice would you give?

The lack of respect is disgusting.
Do you know what this means

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
I almost gave up yesterday, quit, had enough, can't do this anymore. But I didn't, I fought those dark thoughts and today is another day. The problems haven't disappeared, but I'm looking at things in a different light for now. Being positive can sometimes be extremely difficult.

Add bedtime to that list. Remember, sleep is important to health. They want you to dwell on things. But we mustn't allow that. Stay at peace with yourself.
Have you ever wondered why you have unresolved issues with a narcissist? Have you ever noticed you can't talk about what is important in your life? Do you end up being the bad guy for wanting to talk? Do they always have an excuse and play the victim to make you shut up?
@rms267
I have a real problem with the "smirk" of all the things she does. That's my trigger as it usually has an eye roll accompanying it. And that's a sign of disgust and ridicule.
@WayneOrourke88
This is a Jihad. How many times have we heard Imams calling for it? How many times have we ignored them? The government is outwardly encouraging this and ignoring any backlash so as not to be seen as racist. Pathetic cowards. Our time will come, and it won't be pretty.
@lovewins11011
Observe any interaction with others closely, their body language, it's awkward, almost child like. Then, once the interaction is over, watch the mask drop and the Misery return. It won't torture you anymore. They're the one torturing themselves.
@JacklenaB
Neglect is passive-aggressive, a way of diminishing accountability, it manifests physical symptoms, the sicker you become, the more they neglect you and blame you, and the cycle of abuse carries on.
My body is telling me to quit every minute of every day, and I can't come to terms with the pain. My mind is starting to agree. I dig deep every day to fight, but I'm running out of energy. Sleep is my only refuge, and even that eludes me most of the time.
Narcissists will stop at nothing to hurt you. New depths of hatred were plumbed last night. As some of you may know, I'm disabled, well according to my narcissist, it's all put on, an act, psychosomatic and worst of all, it's funny.
Can anyone tell me of a plant, a natural medicine that can help with the mind, body, and soul, something to help soothe a worried mind and ileviate pain and allow a calmness to settle over you?

Militias, defend what is yours and your family's. Do it legally, don't go on the offensive, defend your community. Stand up and say no. You need young men, some muscle. Stock up on food and water. Don't be scared,be prepared.
It only makes sense to limit your interactions with a narcissist, but sometimes you don't have a choice. Stay on point, be factual and honest, no put downs or insults. Remain calm. If you don't, they will use it against you. Don't give them a reason.
@WayneOrourke88
He puts the right kind of boots on the ground. He has an extremely loyal group of followers, he's damn good at what he does, and the establishment fears him.
Tomorrow is another day.
This, too, shall pass.
What you think you become.
Stay positive.
One day at a time.
There are people worse off.
But also remember life is pain with sporadic joy.
Nobody is coming to help it's all on you.

Think about what happened at the capital building on January 6th. Just be mindful and don't get drawn in, eyes and ears open. Have a planned escape route or two.
I've realized over the past couple of weeks how exhausting X/Twitter can be, absorbing so much energy, both negative and positive, some extremely emotional. Empathy is both a gift and a curse.
