Hi everybody I’m new here. Are there any narc’s on this forum? Because I am one and I fucking hate myself for it. Always hated my dad for his behavior and for being a narc and now i realise i am just the same like him. Does anybody know a solution for this? I am even in for brain surgery.. I have an appointment on friday to try out tdc’s. Would this change me? Read an article that says that tdcs increases empathy. Sorry if my english is bad, I’m from Belgium

You are the first narc I have ever known to acknowledge it. Please keep us posted. Here is some hope for you: Many sociopaths adjust their interactions with a learned type of caring so that they seem almost normal in real life. I wonder if the same concept can be used by narcs. Again please do keep us posted.
But how do you fake caring? I would do everything in the world to be able to feel empathy like a normal human being
Good question. As far as I know, the sociopaths do not actually feel the caring, but they do learn how to behave as if they did care. This could seem silly at first but the benefits to them are significant. Mostly they do not experience the consequences of sociopathic behaviors because they no longer do them.
So it’s like acting your whole life? Pf i really need something to really feel it
Yes, but, If there is a way to feel it I hope you find it. If you find it or start to find it please, even if it is months or years from now, please post. The human mind is an amazing thing when it comes to rewiring itself, so they tell us. I hope that is true.
Hey there, welkom op zelfmoord project ๐
Ben je ook van Belgiรซ?
Leeuwarden. ๐
Ik ben van Antwerpen :). Ben je hier allang actief? Wat brengt je tot deze pagina?
I erased a bunch of my posts cuz a troll kept commenting on em, but im on here quite abit. I have schizoaffective n depression, plus i have a autistic son, so i come on here n vent sometimes because other people just dont understand.
Oh okey, how old is your son? Do you have a husband to help you out a little bit?
Hes 6. I have 3 kids total, single parent. If his dad was in the pic, theres no way he would of been able to handle the things ive had to go through with our son. But eh, thats life. :-p
Wow being a single mom must be a difficult job.. Knap van je ๐
@Ellen87 Sorry to hear a troll was commenting on your posts. If it is still happening or starts again I sure hope you will report it. I know the the link says “Report this post” but once you click it there is another link for problem comments. Your posts really help me and I think others too.
Yea i reported him. Im glad my posts help u, sometimes i think i complain too much rather than vent
Venting and complaining or closely related. Your situation warrants either one. I get the impression that most (but not all) people around here are kid free so you are a bit unique in this respect. I really think you are providing valuable glimpses into the life a mother that has had just about everything go wrong that ever could have. Your pain is beyond my comprehension but I really think it should see light of day. Please keep posting. Here is a reason why: you just might be teaching a young lady lurker what to look out for in the choosing of a man or even choosing or allowing motherhood for herself. You speak from first hand experience and it is so valuable.
What the heck is a TDC?
Tdcs is transcranial magnetic stimulation
It’s electric stimulation of the brain
I thought ECT was electric stimulation and TMS was done with something like an fMRI machine. If TDC is anything like what I’ve read about, it’s significantly less dangerous than ECT is and has far fewer adverse reactions.
Indeed it’s less dangerous than ECT, i am willing to try anything to experience some sort of empathy inside
What is a narc? I only know it to mean a cop.
Narcisisst
Oh. Thanks.
You’re welcome
