If you're new here I have NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder) and I've been in therapy for the last 8 years learning how to deal with it and live a better life. From the start I've offered you the rare POV of a diagnosed narcissist but NOW I'm switching it up a little bit. I'm interviewing others that are dealing with their own mental health journeys and those that have dealt with toxic relationship dynamics as well. I'm still sharing my POV just sharing others as well.

High-conflict personalities often withhold compliments and validation as a calculated move to keep you feeling "less than."In this Live, I'm pulling back the curtain from the inside out to show you why they refuse to acknowledge your wins. We’ll discuss the power dynamics behind the silence and how you can stop the cycle of hungering for validation from someone who will never give it.It’s time to reclaim your value and realize that their silence says more about their need for control than it does about your worth.
