We discuss narcissistic leveling, a damaging tactic where narcissists minimize your contributions and positive traits while magnifying their own. We explain how narcissists absorb your admirable qualities and project their shame onto you through a process called projective identification, causing you to internalize their negative behaviors and beliefs. We cover how narcissists use false equivalencies to invent scenarios and exaggerate your faults to make themselves look better, and why attempting to hold them accountable only backfires. We emphasize that narcissists are psychologically incapable of accountability and that trying to make them see reality or acknowledge your pain will only harm you further. #narctok #narcissist #abuse #trauma #empath
