The Social Side of Narcissistic Abuse with Professor Sam Vaknin

It's not victims against narcissists, it's a single victim community, in which some of the victims had adopted abrasive antisocial behaviors.
Ever wondered how society plays a role in narcissistic abuse? Caroline Strawson continues her riveting conversation with Professor Sam Vaknin in this episode. They dive into the often overlooked social aspects of narcissistic abuse, discussing the pitfalls of labelling and the fluid nature between victims and abusers. Vaknin brings a fresh perspective, suggesting that narcissism might be a survival mechanism from childhood. The episode also tackles the 'saviour mentality' and how it affects those caught in these toxic dynamics.
Vaknin argues that both victims and abusers are wounded individuals using their survival tools. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the broader societal influences on narcissistic abuse and how to set boundaries and defend oneself.
