The narcissist shame rage spiral is likely something you have seen many times if you know a narcissist or someone with narcissistic personality disorder (npd). The narcissist shame is something they cannot deal with due to their lack of object constancy and their fragile senses of self. They can easily experience narcissistic injury and this leads to narcissistic rage. Why do narcissists use denial? They cannot deal with any shame so they must use projection such as blame shifting and gaslighting as a way to push away shame. When the narcissist feels out of control and to protect against shame, they may also use silent treatment in relationships. Emotional abuse in relationships is hard enough, but it can be more difficult when the abuser is the person with narcissism. The blame shifting and shame narcissist pattern is continuous, and the narcissist will not change. They experience grandiosity and this makes them believe they are superior. When this feeling of grandiosity or superiority is threatened, the narcissist experiences shame and must protect against this at all costs. Why do narcissists blame others? Because they can’t take responsibility for things themselves. The narcissist shame rage spiral is difficult to experience but is also out of the narcissists control. How narcissist protect against shame is with blame shifting and their various other narcissist punishment tactics. In this video I discuss narcissist shame and denial from the narcissist.
