"#ad Narcissistic behaviors can be very difficult to respond to without feeding into their blame game and shame spiral. The key is to remain calm and empowered in your communication boundaries. Narcissistic behaviors are deep down defense mechanisms of people who have X or more of the X wounds described in Inner Work Theory. They have inner child wounds of rejection judgement etc. They seek to avoid blame and feelings of shame so they deflect and make everything about the other person. These behaviors can range from mild to very intentionally abusive tactics. Not every narcissistic behavior"

"#ad Gaslighting and narcissistic behavior comes from X or more of the X wounds in Inner Work Theory. In this scenario Mat is acting as someone with a wound of rejection. Rejection is the lowest wound and often the hardest for someone to identify because they tend to deflect play the victim and deny any acknowledgement or impact they have on a situation. It contributes to Narcissistic gaslighting which often involves denying responsibility belittling and criticizing their partner making them feel like their "reactive" response is unreasonable and playing the victim when their partner responds"

"#ad Emotional invalidation is when your bid for connection with your partner is shut down with defensiveness personal attack and/or deflection. This type of emotional neglect in relationships is unable to handle the discomfort of facing your emotions because deep down they haven't faced or processed their own emotions. This behavior means that they are stuck in X or more of the X wounds in Inner Work Theory such as rejection (shame) judgement (guilt) etc. These inner child wounds are unprocessed emotions from past experiences that end up coming out in our relationships in unhealthy ways.
