YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWATCH Signs of SWITCHING in Narcissists and Borderlines
Narcissistic switching:
Reactive (mortification)
Endogenous (collapse)
Type (cerebral to somatic, overt to covert or schizoid)
Switching between self-states: borderline, primary psychopath
Individuates internally, via switching
Switching between internalized and externalized aggression
Role of dissociation
Narcissistic alignment is when narcissists choose a narcissist – contemporary, historical, or fictitious character - as a role model to be emulated.
Some signs of switching: Talkativity (hyper-verbalizing), hyperreflexivity (pseudo-psychosis) and HYPERACTIVITY followed by a period of subdued, slow motion, hesitant reactivity.
BPD and NPD are prone to switching owing to splitting and self-splitting defenses (previous self-state all bad while new self-state all bad).
