Many of my listeners contact me with a burning question: How do I capture the attentions and affections of the schizoid man that I have my eye on?

This little voice is now stopping the OCPD person from realizing any type of freedom or joy in life.

A narcissistic relationship drastically affects the wellbeing of both the narcissist and his partner. The partner of a narcissist often suffers from trauma bonding (Stockholm syndrome), Cassandra Syndrome, Wendy Complex, or Complex PTSD. They suffer from these disorders throughout the relationship, as well as after the relationship ends. Some people expect almost immediately relief after the narcissist moves on from the relationship, but this is often not the case.

The narcissist cannot help but be a negativist. Most of his life was taken away from him by someone else who was domineering, over-protective, smothering, aloof, depressed, or self-indulgent.

The narcissist is a negativist because he dislikes his perceived inability to control the 'play' that he is a part of.
