Treating Narcissism: How to Deal with A Narcissist

In this episode, we discuss how to relate to a narcissist in your life without sacrificing your own well-being.  We explore the dynamics of dealing with constant accusations, suspicion and invasive  tracking measures.  I emphasize the importance of taking these accusations seriously and understanding the projection and splitting that may be occurring. I suggest and give clear examples of how to not label your partner's behaviors but instead the goal is to focus on describing what is happening in the present moment. I also highlight the significance of embracing loss and different perspectives, as well as the hope that can be found in confusion and curiosity.
