Do you know what might make a narcissist panic? By the end of this article, you’ll have four tactics that will send a narcissist into a tizzy and turn the table on them in a way they normally do to you.
Narcissists often drive people crazy with their manipulative tactics. But if you’re wondering whether there’s a way to make them panic—yes, there is! To understand how to make a narcissist panic, it’s important to know the methods they typically use to manipulate and control you.
Common Narcissist Manipulation Tactics
Narcissists commonly engage in behaviors like gaslighting, lying, intimidation, and triangulation.
Gaslighting: This involves making you doubt your reality, convincing you that events didn’t happen the way you remember. They might say, “Oh, we talked about that,” or, “No, that’s not how it went,” when you know it is.
Lying: Narcissists are pathological liars. They often lie about even trivial things. What’s shocking is how they’ll contradict themselves, often leading you to believe that documenting everything is essential to catch their lies later.
Intimidation: Narcissists will make you afraid—whether it’s by threatening to take your children, ruin your reputation, or leave you financially devastated. They know your weaknesses and will use them to instill fear and maintain control.
Triangulation: This is when they involve others, making you believe that everyone else supports them. They may even convince you that if you oppose them, you’ll look insane to everyone else.
