Why Staying Calm Makes Narcissists Freak Out!

Staying calm can be a powerful tool when dealing with a narcissist, especially during a toxic relationship or contentious divorce. Understanding their need for emotional chaos is key to maintaining control. By practicing emotional regulation, you can disarm their tactics and start your divorce recovery.

Have you ever noticed how your calmness makes the narcissist lose control? Narcissists thrive on emotional chaos. They try to keep you reacting so they stay in control. But when you stay calm, they lose their power over you. They may yell louder, accuse harder, and escalate—but that’s actually a sign that your calm is working.

In this video, I’ll teach you how to use your calm as your boundary, how to pause and respond instead of react, and how to protect your emotional energy.
