Narcissists create more narcissists, it spreads like a disease, people who grow to close to them often lose their identities, children raised by them are often never allowed to develop their own identities. I can understand the inhumanity and lack of empathy, only because I've seen it in so many people who weren't narcissists, but what gets me is how oblivious they are to their own flaws, like how can a morbidly obese man criticize a slightly chubby man for being too fat?
Its the great thing about Grand parents. It is an important role. We show the little ones that it is great to be a kid and we love them for who they are and they can be themselves. Everything else seems to reward them for pretending. Narcissism is constant pretending.
Excellent, song and video! I work in treating narcissists. I have a video here on YouTube called "How to Spot a Narcissist" if you are interested. Also, I'm not the Dr. Vaknin. Thanks.
This is the most brilliant creative entertaining thing I've seen on NPD. For people to stay involved with a narcissist, they must have a false belief that they are not lovable. Other wise they could not endure the depths of despair and pain that the narcissist is so skilled at sendng their way. The narc is one going around at a party holding a silver tray full of knifes...his mindless victims pick up the knifes and do it to themselves much to his sadistic satisfaction
hell I loved the other version then I found this! Doug I want to have your babies, oh hell not biologically possible. Well love it anyhow. Wish you could represent other disorders, I study mental health and it helps to understand in greater depth through art. Rare for NPD to take that medium
Doug, Rick and Sam what an awesome performance shining through your recording. Alice lovely video work, syncs wonderfully with the lyrics. The speaking is well placed. 5***** Mary
I see you need Mindtools to express yourself, maybe that software is not as good as you think, no problem though, I respect all points of view, especially when I understand them
Any discussion of personality disorders that evades the proximity of operative thoughts and behavior from life enhancing outcomes fails to establish a foundation of cogent virtues working towards beneficent values or goals. Such eviscerated buzz words need more substantive and empirical criteria on which the judgment of modality may rest
LOL! Forgot to comment on the song, I think the whole package is awesome, great stuff! The songwriting and lyrics are overwhelming and the performance exceptional!
Thanks for calling me back here doug, because I just realized that the entire song is in rhyming couplets. Jesus Christ doug, attempt a little innovation.
well I had planned to write a song and put it up on youtube, but I had planned to learn two others and work on my chops before hand. So, you could probably check back in like a month and a half. it's probably gonna be black metal thought.
great embellishment of your original song Doug. Its interesting that Vaknin got his Doctorate from a phony university that has since been closed. Hah! True mark of a narcissist! Vaknin is interesting.....as an narc oddity.
WOW THIS WAS AWESOME ...rICK LOVED THE VIDEO YOU DID WITH THIS....FITS SOMEONE I NO TO A T....SO GLAD I'M OUT OF THAT NIGHT MARE....FEELINNG BETTER EVERYDAY
It is kind of hard to say which version of this I liked the best, since both are great, really. As social commentary, this version has an impact that cannot be ignored. The visual images clearly support the ideas expressed here. Over all, it is absolutely stunning.
I think, though, that the main difference shows in the line "I'll make your life hell." In the original, it is delivered with a flat affect that just sucks the life from a room. I think that was more effective. Still,5*
I think you could make money commenting. I think the voice of Sam Vaknin is the spookey thing here. The legendary example of his own science is a fascinating creature to work with,,,a Rick
Yes it has a lot of potential. the message pounds away at most people just a tad cause we all know someone at least a little like this. We all remember Spock
...Huge improvement gentlemen & lady... Everything blended together extremely well and the video was unordinarilly interesting. Original, timely & powerful! This song proves your making changes to your 'sound,' and for the better, that most artist's are incapable of. Bravo to you & yours...
Wow, an amazing production Rick and Doug! It sounded great! And the video was superb! The song and video were very interesting and thought provoking! Very well done, I enjoyed it! ... FrAnK (★★★★★)
My very own N husband is 79 years old. N's don't get better with age. "You can't reach my soul. It is down a deep dark hole. And if you look, I'll make your life Hell" . . . . Doug Payne has summed up N. Believe me I know. I bless Dr. Sam's work to help the world understand this pathological disorder. If your life's partner is N, quite hoping for change. Look again at this video.
Rick, Doug and Alice, I often see here on YT wonderful talent being used to the best possible purpose. That is, to call attention to an area or subject where attention is much needed. You three amazing talents have done that so very exceptionally well here with this extraordinary song, performance and imagery. I applaud you all and say, "Bravo"!!

you men really put your shoulder to the wheel here and dug deep into yourselves to make a really substantial song..and the vocals are mighty...i love the deep timbre in the voice thats been recorded so well.....proper work here by men who have lived and are still alive creatively
I shall be writing to all or you to thank you for your comments here. The subject has become a source of fascination for so many people these days as they strive to cope with heartless people in everyday life.

Hi plunk52o:
My father once told me that if I read something and don´t understand it, "Read it 3 times and if after that you still don´t get it, discard it"
"Operative Thoughts" you mean thoughts that are not "out of service" What´s that suppose to mean?
Maybe you should rephrase what you wanted to say in plain English
I´d like to add that your grammar and spelling are correct, congrats!
