How to get along with narcissists?

We need to understand them and accept their differences.

1. If the people around you are narcissists, accept their differences.

Accept different personality types. Not everyone thinks and acts like you. Instead of trying to change others, we should learn to accept differences and find a balance when we really need to communicate with others.

Don't try to change them, focus on your own needs.

Try to understand that narcissists resist change. It is more important for you to see what they are, not what you want them to be. Pay attention to your feelings and what kind of person you want to be. Accept the fact that there are many different types of personalities in the world, and the only thing you can control is your attitude and your own behavior.

Realize that everything they do comes from their insecurity.

Narcissists are very fragile inside, and they will question others because it will make them feel better. When you realize that what narcissists do to you is not personal, but comes from their insecurity, you know that sometimes they just need some degree of comfort. This is especially important if the narcissist is someone you have to work closely with, or your family. Proper comfort can calm them down and complete the task at hand.

4. Give up the recognition of narcissists.

You are not what narcissists say. So don't let their blame game destroy your self-esteem, and don't argue with them about what you think is right. There is no point arguing with narcissists in order to prove them wrong, because they will not give up proving themselves right. When they disagree with you in an unpleasant way, you are more likely to feel depressed. Know your own value and stay away from what narcissists think of you.

5. If narcissists hurt you, stay away from them.

Remember, a healthy relationship goes both ways. This is a relationship of mutual respect based on mutual understanding and mutual tolerance. But any relationship with narcissists may be the opposite, because it is to make narcissists unilaterally happy and constantly get support. This kind of relationship will only make you stressed, which is not conducive to your growth.

6. Learn when to walk away.

When narcissists start to make you feel uncomfortable and start to doubt yourself, cheer up, give yourself enough respect and leave them. If you fall in love with a narcissist, you should seriously consider ending this relationship and pursuing a better life. If narcissists are your family, you don't have to be cruel to them, but you'd better keep your distance from them.
