Hey, deserving listeners. The other day I put out a call on the Facebook fan page and on the discord channel

0:06.8

asking people to submit their questions about narcissism. And I thought I would

0:10.8

answer those questions here. First person wrote in saying,

0:14.9

what are things we should avoid doing when dealing with narcissists? What are things we should

0:20.8

avoid doing when dealing with narcissists? End of question. Well, the first thing I'll say is

0:26.3

what do you mean by narcissists? Because the internet means a lot of different things by that.

0:31.6

Sometimes they're referring to narcissistic personized shorter, which I will tell you that the vast

1:29.6

narcissist? Well, the first thing I would say is try to understand their trauma. This is what I do

1:35.6

because it one helps me to have compassion for them, which I consider to be a central virtue.

1:44.3

But the other is that it explains a lot of their behavior. If I'm feeling put down, if I'm

1:49.2

feeling discounted, if I'm feeling devalued, and I have a satisfactory conceptualization of their

1:57.6

narcissistic injury as a child and their compensation for it as an adult, then I can interpret what's

2:04.8

happening with much less stress. I can say, well, I feel devalued by this person not because I
