Narcissist's Body Postures: Hypervigilant-paranoid, Pleading-expectant, Dismissive-contemptuous, Superior-boastful, Impatient-scornful, Impatient-entitled, Membership-gravitas, Converting-empathic, Observer-detached
Psychopath’s body language is geared at concealment, so he appears to be lying all the time.
Body language environmentally determined: in prison submissive.
Invasion of personal space signals power hierarchy and ritualized pain as a form of extreme intimacy.
Narcissist’s eyes go blank when he dissociates or when his aggression (contempt, disdain) is provoked. He withdraws inwards and decompensates: both the false and true selves are deactivated.
The narcissist adopts a physical posture which implies and exudes an air of superiority, seniority, hidden powers, mysteriousness, amused indifference, etc. Though the narcissist usually maintains sustained and piercing eye contact, he often refrains from physical proximity (he is "territorial").
Narcissist's Body Postures: Hypervigilant-paranoid, Pleading-expectant, Dismissive-contemptuous, Superior-boastful, Impatient-scornful, Impatient-entitled, Membership-gravitas, Converting-empathic, Observer-detached
Somatoform disorders (Somatization, conversion disorder, illness anxiety disorder or hypochondria)
Body dysmorphia (shame and anxiety) and body image problems.

What I noticed, all narcs have this facial expression of contempt on their faces, like they had a "bad smell under their noses". When they speak, they usually speak with contempt about everything - putting the corners of their mouth downwards. Other thing I noticed, especially with celebrities during interviews, they smile in inappropriate moments. They say about something sad and they smile. This is so characteristic. They have no idea about real emotions. All is fake.

I had that moment with my now ex-wife. 6 months or so into the marriage we got into a heated argument. I don't remember why we argued but it seems like it was probably out of nowhere and over nothing. She was super pissed and stormed off and then 30 seconds later she turned around and came back all sweet, loving, and affectionate as if a switch had been turned or a magic wand had been used, like in a Harry Potter movie or something. This was maybe 6 years ago now but it's burned in my brain. I thought, "Oh, crap, I married a crazy person...she's legitimately crazy." She must have read my face how shocked and appalled I was and never pulled that again, but the lovebombing and devalue back and forth continued throughout the marriage until she finally discarded me.

When I told my mom to stop in front of my grandparents and disabled uncle she flew into an uncontrolled rage yelling "HE'S LYING HES PLAYING THE VICTIM HE HE HE YOU UNGREATFUL BITCH YOU!!!!" and then threatened to kick out everyone and went on a rant about how everyone is jealous becauses shes a strong independent black woman.

I'm currently co-housing with an adult sibling, could the following behaviors be a sign of narcissism? 1. She doesn't hug anyone, not even her own parents. With her boyfriend as exception. 2. She barely does anything in the household, besides delegating work to others (Especially to her new boyfriend). 3. Tells everyone else that she does everything in the household on her own, making us look bad. 4. When everyone cleans up the table after a family dinner, she remains seated guild free whilst others clean up for her. 5. She constantly insults other house-members, or provides nonconstructive degrading comments. Even towards her parents. 6. Having a grownup discussion about anything only results in an temper tantrum, with high pitched screaming. 7. Nag's that she's gaining weight, forces everyone in the household to cook healthy for her, then spends her evenings eating chips whilst watching TV. 8. Refuses to join our households daily exercise during the evening, claiming she doesn't have any time. Nag's about weight, continues to eat chips and watch TV. 9. Agreeing on household rules is virtually impossible without a lawyer, as she will mold those rules and abuse every loophole there's available to avoid work. 10. Delegates our mother with work/tasks, then goes on an temper tantrum and throws insults at our mom for doing set tasks badly and incorrectly. Or is she just a lazy brat? We both got the same parenting style, I'm mostly the complete opposite and feel bad for accidentally stepping on a snail... She shows zero lack of empathy or remorse, for whatever insult she says to anyone. Our parents are luck-ally nifty enough to see through her false claims, so they don't blame me or any other people for it. However, our sisters behavior does make our parents sad...

Very interesting to listen to your explanations. I wasted 19 years with a narcist woman, daughter of a narcist father. In order to satisfy her addiction to attention and admiration, she used to go out with other men. As a result our relationship suffered, hence no children or marriage, and I became an alcoholic. It is a blessing that I got out there at last and married a normal, lovely woman. My alcohol problem is not fully cured, but I can abstain for longer periods. Later my ex-girlfriend became even CEO of a company, I assume mostly by performing "horizontal career steps". Eventually she was kicked out there, presumably after it was realized that she produces nothing but hot air.

On #8 converting/empathetic, healing & caring professions attract a lot of narcs, for obvious reasons. We have to be vigilent. I had this experience a few years ago in my first and only experience of therapy. Since then I just watch videos like this online. I may try therapy again some day, but I also feel it may be over-rated or may do more harm than good if the one selected isn't knowledgeable enough, or honest enough, etc. We can heal through learning, reading and, as mentioned, watching/listening to lectures like this, as well as simple reflection on things we can change about ourselves to stop giving ammunition to narcs in the first place. Basically it's about boundaries.

You know I could really just cry because you are completely correct. My ex-narc did something pretty low to me years ago and I knew he did it and he knew he did it. fast forward a few years he got in trouble about something and had to take a lie detector test concerning if he had did this very bad thing to anyone else and when I tell you he PASSED and I was dumbfounded so yes this is true I've seen him change his posture and all to get an emotion out of someone . He just never knew I was always watching him.

Of course most of the time he could be the jovial, helpful, charming guy around town, the public persona.

My landlords wife, used to the posch life had to downsize to the tiny suite in the basement of her 1.6 million dollar house after a 6 month trip, travel spending spree abroad after inheriting a large sum after her father’s death. She came complaining to me, her ,her husband, new baby and mother in law are moving into the tiny 2 bedroom downstairs. She’s used to her 4 bed, 3 bath total upstairs of her house. Well, envy ensued. Her mother in law doesn’t know she smokes so she overstepped her boundaries, making my front door patio area her new smoking Pitt. I told her new arrangements had to be made, she laughed and said it was only going to be just 2 or 3 days. The weekend went by.. I see her smoking on my deck over and over as we were not home. She has an entire back yard and personal entrance at the back of the house to smoke… I confronted her a second time… she laughed. I said, “ this is not a smoking Pitt, this is my home”. She stared at me blankly, smiling shyly… “I know,” she said. I repeated… “ “I know, she said” finally, she repeated, “(a week later) “it’s only going to be 2or 3 days… “I said, no!… now!!!” She stared blankly… paused. I said,”it’s making us uncomfortable. I offered her chairs, an ashtray, she said she has some! She has ignored me since till yesterday when she took “all” of my red ripe tomatoes from my garden, while munching, offered me some of “her” tomatoes. Now I have to wait for the green ones to ripen so I can get some. She’s keniving, and spiteful… jealous of our comfort…. Overstepping her boundaries because “she owns the property “. Honestly, people make me sick. The less people I know, the better.

One thing I noticed about the Malignant Narcissist I was in an "intimate" relationship with, he never touched my face and always looked uncomfortable when I touched his. Before he had a rage and his pupils completely dilated so the whole of his eyeballs looked black (like some animal's or the Rosswell alien) 👽, I had commented that there was something different about his eyes. It struck me when he was up close. He looked very nervous when I said this. I often felt unnerved by his gaze. It felt all consuming. His eyes had a glassy flat look and the only time they had a spark was when he was smirking. Usually this was when he was lying and hoodwinking me or ridiculing some old supply and doing his unnerving joker laugh.

I have been studying the subject autodidactically for a very long time and have immersed myself very deeply. You are the first to verbalize the complexity of the matter in an understandable way without losing scientificity. One thing I have been thinking about for a very long time is whether there is a narcissist 2.0? That is, due to the omnipresence of the subject, many narcissists are adapting their behavior (unconsciously or consciously). That is, they anticipate that the classic behavior will be increasingly sanctioned and, above all, will also bring little return. Perhaps it also goes so far that the narcissist 2.0 adopts a highly functional persona with which he even identifies. Isn't it likely that the narcissist software is also continually updated in many narcissists who have the capacity to do so? Might also be a good topic for a video. Greetings from Germany

IMHO…They will frequently test the waters, or step with just one big toe over the line and watch what happens, and if they can get away with their old behavior patterns they will keep pushing it till they are back to 1.0 😁. Who they are never changes, nobody really ever changes, but they can control their behavior if it will make more problems than it is worth for them. The 2.0 you mention is just them controlling certain aspects of their personality to prevent problems they don’t want to deal with. They are still the same person, and it has nothing to do with your feelings. Remember how charming they can be to people that don’t know them very well. They know how to control themselves, and they know when to use that control.

She hated it when I just shut her off during the end of our marriage and now I have gone no contact. I should have done that 2.5 years ago when our divorce was done, but I have done it, a couple months ago. It is not just romantic relationships. It can be: coworkers, family members, members of society, friends.....you name it. Getting my knowledge up on this is helping me to identify it more easily. These people are tricky. You really have to listen to the CONTENT of what they are actually saying. Body language is not a great indicator, but their words will tell you a lot about what is going on and where they might be; as opposed to what they are presenting outwardly.

The one that claims she is a mother, has stolen clothing, cleaning supplies, food, toiletries, all items I would have given or purchases for them. Its not enough to steal, they started taking discarded food and toiletries from the the trash and putting them in my freezer, refrigerator and bathroom. This could have caused disease. Same with clothing, leaving clothing that was never mine. People who don't work a REAL job have plenty of time to play mind games and commit crimes.

I read the FBI article you referenced and agree that more training is needed for to keep law enforcement from being manipulated by them. What worries me is learning the DSM-5 will include psychopathy as a mental illness in that edition. Seems to me criminal defense lawyers will have a field day with this claiming insanity for their psychopathic clients! Clearly psychopaths need to have a very good reason not to commit a crime they may be contemplating. A long prison sentence can be a healthy deterrent for these predatory people. I was a very naive 21 yr old when I married a narcissist with psychopathic tendencies. It took nearly 20 years to finally realize there was no hope of ever changing him. He would use his wealth to manipulate people and the system. I was expected to be his arm candy who personified his wholesome family guy facade. How I’d love to have those lost years back. Thank you for educating people about narcissism. You’re saving lives.

I am truly sorry for your pain. Was your mother perhaps a victim of abuse as well? I have known a number of covert narcissist parents who had been victims of severe verbal & physical abuse as children, including even sexual abuse, & because they had to go through it, they feel others need to just suck it up & deal with it, keep it secret, not whine about it. And rather than protect the victims, & punish the abusers, they worry more about themselves, about appearances, about their own comfort & security & allow the continuation of abuse while pretending not to see the signs. Besides, they don't want to be bothered with other people's problems because it takes all the time & attention away from the person that they really want to talk about--themself. I notice that these parents also choose a golden child, a black sheep & the rest are basically invisible--only the golden child received any affection, praise, cuddles, & they were always 'supposedly' like the parent, meaning if they were attractive, then they inherited it from that parent, if they are intelligent, talented, skilled at anything, or socially popular, then it was because they were just like that parent. The golden child could do no wrong, & every wrong is somehow turned into some amusing story, where as the black sheep can do no good, & every good act is turned into a bad act, it is even exaggerated & made far worse than what actually happened, & they are severely humiliated & punished for it. Furthermore, when the golden child either makes or buys a cheap gift for this parent, it is considered the most perfect & thoughtful gift, they knew them so well, however the black sheep can buy an expensive gift & it's viewed with open contempt & tossed aside even when others bring attention to the generosity of this expensive gift, & the gifts from the invisible children just don't matter at all, they are set aside without comment or may recieve fake gratitude. Oddly, it's often the black sheep that the parent turns to for help or whines or gripes to about the unfairness of life not giving them all they should be entitled to, they are also the verbal punching bag, the one who is talked down to & criticized, & the one who comes to their rescue despite all their abuse, because the golden child & invisible child make themselves unavailable or simply won't listen to all the negativity & game playing. The Black Sheep is caught up in a love & hate relationship, they dislike their parent intensely, but may feel sorry for them, or maybe, they are still trying to win them over & please them, which is impossible to do. They are never truly satisfied with anything that anyone does for them, they are never happy & they'll even fake illnesses or over-exaggerate them in order to get attention from those around them, & tend to play the victim, claiming that those that they abused, were their abusers. I have a friend who after decades of abuse, is still catering to her father, who uses & takes advantage of her at every opportunity, & yet, still she is the black sheep & her sibling, who doesn't even visit him, is still his favorite. I am the Black Sheep who dislikes, but feels sorry for my old, covert, manipulative, hypochondriac, hoarding mother who has driven everyone away with her negativity. I feel sorry for my friends who were only children, because they tend to be both the golden child & the black sheep. Are you perhaps the chosen Black Sheep of your family as well?

@@imgoldenspyder9409 @imgoldenspyder9409 I guess I am the Black Sheep of my family that no one loved, who was sort of put down when young when I got good grades in school, like they wanted me to be "less than" they were. An only child they tried to abort with pills, then my mother who did not seem to want children threw away the rest of the pills as she "was healthy and not too old. " She often called me The Child often, and started hitting me when I was a baby, and after my father told her to stop she did it when he was away when I was small by sitting on me and grabbing my hand to use it to hit me in my own face. So on and so forth.

Took some time out from this N topic. Felt secure enough to revisit some pertinent topics that presented in life if one lives. Thank you for the annual CEU's - laughing.

I cannot believe the answers you are providing me. While I thought I had an honest program I was tricking myself about my relationship. It’s those little things that seemed weird that you described as if you knew him. Oh yes, it was all there, not good times and bad times. This is really unfamiliar territory. Thank you.

Very interesting. My ex used to sit in his " Napoleon" pose, one hand in his jacket on his chest to show off his superiority, with the little smirk on his face...

Wow Thanks you described my female coworker friend of 18 months. The last 4 weeks I have been trying to get away from her . I found out way too much about her and she is lost in her mind . I am relocating away . I had to break off this work friend because she clung to me and when I had taken on new work responsibilities to boss her she was not right very upset doing safety issues .
