YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Your first impression of the narcissist is negative. But then, you repress and deny it and replace it with a positive impression. Why is that? Cognitive dissonance: inappropriate to be critical immediately; appropriate to give a chance; autoplastic defenses (something is wrong with me, not with the narcissist); neediness (feeling lonely, anxious, depressed, sex-starved).
