How to Trigger a Narcissist’s Shame and Shut them down

Today, I will precisely teach you how to trigger a narcissist’s shame response to minimize their abuse and corner them. Before you comment and say, “Doesn’t that make you a narcissist as well? Why would you want to shame them? Why would you want to hurt them on purpose? Where is the difference between you and them?” watch the entire episode to understand why, when, and how to trigger their shame.

When you are not able to have them cooperate with you, when honesty, transparency, and amicability are not working, and they are adept at punishing you, bringing you down, torturing you, weaponizing your relationship with the children, destroying them, and doing all sorts of nonsense that makes it extremely difficult for you to live a normal life. That’s when you use their shame against them.
