Why Your Tears Feel Like a Weapon to Me and Other Narcissists
Why does your crying make a narcissist so angry? In this video, Lee Hammock (Self-Aware Narcissist) breaks down the cold and often cruel reactions narcissists have to your tears. While you are looking for comfort, they are looking for control.
As a narcissist in therapy, Lee explains the 'Internal Software Crash' that happens when they see you cry. From viewing your tears as a manipulative tactic to feeling a sense of 'victory' over your emotions, this video uncovers the truth behind the lack of empathy. If you’ve ever been told to 'stop crying' or been ignored while in pain, this perspective will help you understand that it’s not your fault—it’s their limitation.
What we cover today:
The Manipulation Mirror: Why they think you’re 'faking it' (because they often do).
The Power Trip: Why some narcissists actually feel a 'high' or arousal when they see you broken.
Emotional Cruelty: The reason they go 'ice cold' or even fall asleep when you are sobbing.
The Shame Trigger: How your pain reminds them of their own hidden shame, causing them to lash out.
