We don’t LOOK for pain in radical acceptance, we just DON’T go by way of the “Big R” in REJECTING the feelings ASSOCIATED with pain. ♥️
My sister used to tell me my mother has changed before I blocked her too bc she actually is a narcissist too. That’s why they’re best friends and I’m the black sheep.
Totally. It’s my husband and his 87 year old mother.
@victoriaboell5155 see they never change. 87 and still a stunted narcissist. My mother is 60.. and not an ounce of wisdom of a real mother figure. She acts like she’s in high school and I’m here frenemy. She acts like I owe her everything I have bc she birthed me. But I didn’t ask to be here!!
Ditto … 77 y/o mom and 47 y/o sister … best friends and both narcissists.
@@thecrystallibrarian smh
I have that dynamic as well, mother being the more definite covert narc, sister a more subtle social narc. It’s like they tag-team being each other’s flying monkey. Fun times (a lifetime of it).
It’s very painful to know that they don’t change and can’t be fixed but the pain that they cause is more.
Seems like they will forever look for opportunities to cause pain. Anytime they were nice to you, they were doing it as a “favor”. Those favors make them feel bad and will be called in at some point. They never forget.
I am 50 weeks into radical acceptance. The last straw was when it was when I was told that I would be involuntarily celibate for the rest of my marriage. I am grateful that I am stronger in the midst of it, but I hate the feeling of coldness in me.
Radical acceptance is such a profound concept. It teaches us to release the need for control over what we cannot change and to find peace within ourselves, even amidst the chaos caused by others. This video is a reminder that true freedom begins with acceptance.
True
Beautifully said Darling
❤😂🎉
Absolutely, we did nothing wrong, and discarding if finally freedom, yet moving forward, all of a sudden, more toxic folks come out of the woodwork. Losing your children whilst alive is a burden again accepting. ❤ true love I believe was letting go of everyone who are prisoners trapped in a system not of their making.
“I never worry about anything I can’t control ”
Man words I speak certainly triggers honest responses making it simple for me to make choices. Once the clarity of where I stand 😂, I do me ❤
Going through this right now – brutal. Can’t wait to get to the other side.
Me too😢
Dr Ramani thank you for everything!!!
Once you get involved in a romantic relationship with a narcissist, you become a DEAD MAN WALKING!
Yep
I can’t imagine how terrifying it must be to not even have the choice to get away, or to abandon your children. I recently learned about all the horrors that have a name- narcissists. It explains a lot, and nothing. It seems everything we were taught was bs. You can enjoy being alone, others won’t do unto you as you do them. And Monsters are REAL.
It explains a lot, and nothing. That says it all. Well said!
Cultures and societies force people to be wholesome, “wholesome family, parents, children, friends, jobs, ect” … many victims and enablers fake it, and victim shaming, and protect those evil narcissists because enablers are fearful and don’t want to be “negative” … Radical Acceptance is a lonely journey because no one believe the victim/survivor … hitting rock bottom and everything needs to happen so the only person who truly believe the victim/survivor is the self, the internal compass, one’s own body, one’s own emotion, memory, and soul, a hero and a light from within. 💖💫
They fake it? Ya think?!
We, the scapegoat, are often, and most times LEFT to live life with the REPUTATION we, behind our backs and all around us, were given by folks that had a ‘stellar reputation’ that NOONE would EVER believe would LIE, tell half ruinous truths, and slander to ruin their own—– SO IN THE WORLDS EYE, IT MUST BE TRUE ! At least to those who prefer to go along so they themselves go free and ‘loved’. Thank you Dr. Ramani, you have great purpose. I love you!
@@beverlyballard3845 I feel you! The smear campaigns affects how people treat us regardless of if we react or not.
Normally, I couldn’t give a 💩what people think of me. But, when it directly effects one’s economic status I can’t help be care.
harsh truths delivered in an candid detached format. here’s what’s going on…and it totally sucks.
My radical acceptance is…it’s on them, not me. It wasn’t my doing or fault for their behavior and what needs work inside themselves.
Radical acceptance that it is not my responsibility for changing or appeasing those with narcissistic traits and behaviors.
Radical acceptance is knowing that I was able to walk away with myself intact along with a long list of lessons learned … for myself and for relationships.
Radical acceptance is knowing I am moving forward and looking forward to all the new chapters. ❤
I’ve learned radical acceptance two years ago. Radical acceptance saved me from internally suffering. It took awhile to learn radical acceptance but I am ok! Protect your peace & find a happy place.
@@rosecowan1556 I’m always at awe of those who accomplish radical acceptance and actually find peace.
I can’t do that unless I move to other country. Which I’m considering doing in the next couple of years. I plan to move to Australia, where the narc and his flying monkeys cannot go. They’ve been stalking me, coerced my employers, coworkers, friends, family and even my medical team. I find peace thinking about a life free from them.
@ Thank you!
Over 20 years ago I cut out a Ziggy one-panel from the local newspaper. It said “If you always expect disappointment you won’t be disappointed.”
This sums up my radical acceptance of my dealings with narcissists.
Since very little, I have always thought there is always a solution, except for death…. however after years of dealing with a narcissistic family, now I know what is to feel powerless and I have dive in deep to radical acceptance. The way I cope with all the grief, is just telling me that they will never love me the way I did, and sometimes that I created a fantasie of a family that never existed in reality, only in my mind. Thank you so much
Dissociation is common but now you get to face the music & stop believing in the happily ever after ending
For me the most challenging part was when I finally faced the fact: there is no love in these relationships. Zero. Nada. It was painful as hell, mostly as it involved some of my family of origin. It is a real grieving process. But having gone through it you will never be the same and you can never “unsee” the truth. That is where a healthier, more peaceful world starts.
Self love starts where narcissists end.
I’m sorry to hear you had to endure the experience at the hands of your family of origin, but glad you have seen the light. I can relate, having gone through a similar experience in which three lead perpetrators orchestrated a swift ambush that involved effectively kidnapping my seven-year-old daughters. Now 13, they continue to suffer, as the enablers on both sides of my family of origin continue to work on them. I am moving in the right direction toward the path you seem to have found. Even today, six years later, when I recall in detail the surreal nature of the planned events that were clearly intended to permanently separate me from my daughters, I still feel my stomach drop. Wishing you all the best life has in store for you.
It’s unfortunate, well fortunate for others but unfortunate for me that people don’t understand the struggle a survivor of narc abuse go through.
At some point in the relationship/s, radical acceptance hits you pretty hard after multiple attempts of trying to make it work and getting burnt out. Ultimately, you have no other choice. I believe after reaching radical acceptance is when you truly are able to move on.
Cultures not only protect narcissists, but reward them over and over, as you’ve taught us.
😢😢 we should let them alone
