Episode Overview
- Narcissists struggle to manage their emotions and often use maladaptive strategies.

Narcissists leak and drip emotions and cannot contain them as they use maladaptive strategies to ignore the bad and fabricate fake emotions to appear 'normal'.
Emotional incontinence isn't a term you hear every day, but it's a fascinating topic that Prajinta Pesqueda dives into in this episode of N.A.R.C. Troopers. If you've ever wondered why some people seem to have emotions that spill out uncontrollably, this episode sheds light on the phenomenon, especially in those with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). Prajinta explains how narcissists struggle to manage their emotions, often using maladaptive strategies to appear 'normal' while masking their true feelings.
The discussion covers emotional lability, a condition where emotions change rapidly and are hard to control, leading to frequent and intense emotional reactions. Prajinta also touches on the pseudo-bulbar effect and how it differentiates from depression stemming from emotional instability. The episode is packed with information about how cluster B personality disorders, including NPD, affect emotional regulation. It highlights the prevalence of these disorders and the challenges in diagnosing them, given that many individuals with NPD do not seek treatment.
Prajinta also discusses the comorbidities like addiction that often accompany these disorders. A particularly intriguing part of the episode is the exploration of how narcissists use cold empathy to mimic emotions and appear normal. If you've ever felt confused by someone's erratic emotional behaviour, this episode offers valuable insights into why that might be. Prajinta's engaging style and deep understanding of the subject make this episode a must-listen for anyone affected by or interested in narcissistic abuse recovery.
So, if you're ready to understand more about emotional incontinence and its impact on relationships, tune in to this enlightening episode. It's time to uncover the truth behind those leaky emotions!
