having in your life you'll find better more genuine friends then you can establish a healthy life for yourself number seven don't be afraid the best way to expose a narcissist is not to be afraid of them the way that a narcissist controls an empath is through fear that is what gives them power when we're afraid of a narcissist and what they may do we often go to other people to get help that usually doesn't work because most people don't want to get involved narcissists are pathological liars and eventually they hang themselves there are contradictions in what they do and say and people start to notice sometimes when we ask for help from other people with regard to the narcissist they refuse to listen and even turn against us they can twist everything and make the empath look like the bad guy you have to find your inner strength and get rid of your fear surround yourself with good people you deserve that your health will improve and your life will improve if you're around a narcissist your life will be full of constant upheaval people will see the truth about the narcissist eventually it's possible that many of your friends didn't trust a narcissist in the first place and got a bad vibe from them immediately the more you surround yourself with good people and try to find a good place in your life the more the lies about you will fall apart but you have to not panic get rid of your fear and the narcissist will leave you too number eight don't let them be the center of your universe narcissists want everything to be about what they want and what they need sometimes you have to remind them that they are not the only person in the world have you ever been to a zoo and noticed the signs that say do not feed the animals it's the same with narcissists don't feed their ego when you feed their ego things will just get worse narcissists are really into themselves when you lavish them with praise they just get more unstable they just start to think that they're much better than you it doesn't encourage them and lift them up it fuels them so they can abuse you more don't feed the bear then they won't be able to assault your self-assurance number nine don't let yourself be pressured narcissist will try to rush you and force you into doing things that you don't want to do to get something they want don't let them allow yourself time to think about whether or not you want to do something you can ignore what they say or walk away you owe it to yourself to speak up for yourself and not allow yourself to be pushed into doing something you don't want to do do it in a calm and gentle way it'll be more effective that way hopefully it won't trigger the narcissist into starting a fight be clear with a narcissist about how their words and actions are influencing you they may not understand or care that's okay stick to your guns number ten learn how to say no a person with a narcissistic personality is frequently consumed by themselves they might believe they have the right to go wherever they want spy on you go through your personal belongings and tell you how to feel perhaps they offer you unsolicited advice and claim credit for your accomplishments alternatively they may put pressure on you to discuss personal matters in a public context they may also have a poor sense of personal space causing them to frequently transgress boundaries most of the time they don't even notice them as a result you must be really explicit about any boundaries that are vital to you it is easy to forget how simple it is to say no we may say it but we lack faith in our ability to follow through when dealing with a narcissist though learning to say no firmly and confidently can be a game changer be clear about what your boundaries are and don't let them cross them it's simple say no sometimes we lack faith in our abilities so we don't follow through don't use ultimatums if you use ultimatums with a narcissist they may use ultimatums
