Suggest Treatment For Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Ignore his behavior; Stay confident.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Dear, I can understand your situation.
Narcissist people are difficult to handle. Your boyfriend has been repeatedly breaking up with you. This is leading you to depression.
I have some suggestions for you to deal with the situation:
1. Narcissists people seek for a person whom they feel to be at their level. They would avoid needy people. So, do not show him how attached you are to him emotionally and need him. Stay confident and let him feel that you are not dependent on him in any way.
2. Regain your confidence. Having confidence allows you to look at what he’s saying and see it for the lie that it is. Confidence will also allow you to remain calm in the midst of an argument.
3. Realize your importance. You have your own life and You deserve the best in this life. Find time for yourself other then him.
4. Ignore his temper tantrums.Walk away, leave the place, or roll your eyes and ignore him. Your response to his tantrums will increase them. Never argue.
5. Lying and deception are primary characteristics of narcissist people. Donot trust his words. Go with your judgement and common sense.
Hope you find these suggestions helpful.
Above all is your health. Practice relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation. Engage yourself in your hobbies.
Consult a psychotherapist for psychological treatments like cognitive behavior therapy, if need be.
Feel free to discuss further, if you have more issues.
Have a great life ahead.
Thanks.
