    Dr Ramini,
    You are so appreciated! Thank you for speaking so much truth. You ARE changing the world.

  • @sushmayen says:

    They’re deceptive and put on an act according to their convenience.

    • @rinskeraphael8755 says:

      So true

    • @Alison-o9d says:

      The acting is their pathetic form of manipulation. They are hiding their next passive aggressive stab for you. And your body keeps count. We need to get control of our fear and guilt of boundaries. Grieve what will never be with them. Look for better opportunities and people to support who will appreciate your kindness. They are probably right next door in the nursing home.

    • @ChiChi13_ says:

      Absolutely true! It’s a mask they put on for sure!

  • @pinkmeadows says:

    I think the β€œchange” comes in cycles of the dysfunction throughout the lifetime of the narc and the one abused. the narc may get more easygoing manipulative while the abused is more underhandedly being stuck and standstill confusion.

  • @AvaJulani says:

    Their up and down roller coasters keep their victims in their yoyo strings of poisons.

  • @Weltliteratur- says:

    The missing change (for the better) is what changes you (for the worse: mental, emotional, and physical health). The masters of chaos need chaos to dwell in…

  • @SherryTomlinson-r2y says:

    Studying the nark and listening to videos for years now. I have changed immensely. I wish the non narks in my family with narcissistic learned behaviors would do the same. It’s still difficult to be around full blown narks.

    Remember This: Betrayal is the violation of trust upon which relationships are predicated.”

  • @LeeJohn007 says:

    **********24-year marriage, and I found out about a 15-year affair. Divorce is incoming. March 14th, i will be a single father…smh. Dr. Ramani, thank you for educating me on what narcissism even is as I had no clue until I found your channel. And others like yours. That’s when my investigation into her demonic nonsense began. I always knew something was off, but now it has a name. God bless you.

  • @dimitrid1096 says:

    “Few decent moments”… What the point of sustaining something superficial like that ? Just quit & save your sanity. Your peace is priceless. Period.

  • @mammadingo9165 says:

    Radical acceptance they aren’t going to miraculously heal or self reflect . Know thy self know thy foe . Be you despite all the crap😒

  • @kathryncothern3433 says:

    In order for anyone to change, narcissist or not, one has to face themselves in the mirror and identify what they need to work on. Without this , nothing will ever change.

    Change has to come from deep down inside and it has to be consistent. Not a rollercoaster of change then fallback to old ways then change then…

    A narcissist will never ever admit something is ever wrong with themselves, so nothing will ever change.

    Always appreciate your discussions Dr. Ramani. Thank you. ❀

  • @beyourowntruelove says:

    You are a truth sayer Dr. Ramani. I went to couples therapy for 3.5 years with the narc ex. When the therapist suggested we re-read a book together – from the 1st year. (I read the book and I’m sure he never did) This moment Had me seeing raging red! I stood up to say f*ck no in her office and walked out mid session. I decided in that moment that I was done! He is now remarried again AND hasn’t changed!

  • @rebeccajolly7039 says:

    Truly I tell you God has sent me to you! It’s like you’re a fly on the wall of my life! I can’t possibly thank you enough Dr Ramani! ❀❀❀❀❀

  • @kimberleyhartley6631 says:

    Thank you Dr. Ramani. Never.believe narcissists sustains changing. Their madness is zany as they are not realizing, even objectifying the time, torment and torture for how they disturb us.

  • @moniquejackson7741 says:

    So Brilliant. Knowing what True and Healthy change should look like can help you maintain Radical Acceptance and not fall for the tricks.

  • @HeauxlySmokes says:

    It’s a game to them that they think you’ll keep playing in to.

  • @aatt3209 says:

    The ‘change’ is transactional, like everything else coming from a narc. It’s a smoke screen when a narc seeks ‘change’ with you but wants something else in return lurking in the background disguised as a ‘change.’

  • @mac-ju5ot says:

    I’ve been through hell and the narcissitict person will never change. They just kept dangling that carrot right in front of my nose ….everything was about their abuse and minising mine.

  • @sharonfuszard8861 says:

    Sustained change has depth and substance. I have yet to meet a narcissist sincerely capable of this.

  • @yourfavouriteMD says:

    The number of times I’ve subscribed and unsubscribed to this channel is a lot. One moment, I feel like I am dating a narcissist, and the next moment, I feel like they are not. It took time for me to finally admit that yes, I was dealing with one, and then I didn’t unsubscribe again, and I eagerly look forward to every day for a video from Dr Ramani. Thank you Dr Ramani for helping me navigate through this confusing relationship.
