Codependency and Complex Trauma – Part 2
ADVERTISEMENT
I think… I am a codependent Narrsisist (not all 18) , I started watching videos wondering if my boyfriend was and the more videos I watch I realize that I am both… My dad was an alcoholic and my mom was a full blown Narrsisist.. I really need help and am praying God helps me through Therapy and reprogramming.. I am also so traumatized from my childhood that I'm hurting..
My god. Think I am a narcissist
Sounds like trump & most of America , to one degree or another. Guess we all better watch these informative videos. Very informative!!!
Yep…?
Is there a link to the test he gave in the handout for narcissism ?
I have learned so very much from you, Tim, for which I thank you. I have to respectfully disagree with the Codependency Model presented. I think too many spouses have been harmfully labeled as a codependent or a co-narcissist, when they are an innocent victim of someone who has betrayed them. I suggest that you look into APSATS.org so you can better understand a betrayed spouse and not shame them into being a co-narcissist or codependent. I also disagree with the Arminian and Deistic theology presented in this talk. We do not live in a perfect world. We live in a fallen world where Satan is roaming seeking whom he can devour. Consider Job…..God gave permission to Satan to afflict Job. God did not DO the afflicting. But he gave permission for the afflicting with limits placed on how Satan could afflict him. And God does use ALL things for good, for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. I don't think anyone fully understands how God's Sovereignty and Free Will and work together. But according to the Bible, both are taught. It is our finite minds that cannot grasp how they work. God IS God and HE IS in control.
At 45:56 when he says that god will take that bad that the person did and turn it into a positive struck with me. I am not religious but a year ago I met the love of my life and I was in the worst mental state I had ever been in. I was drinking heavily and dissociating all the time. Even brushing my teeth was extremely hard for me. He got me out of 2 dangerous situations and really helped me. He has been through a hell of alot too which is a reason why we are so connected. We are so compatible and great together its crazy and having so much trauma definitely is a big reason why. He saved me. We are the only people who really get eachother. We both feel like there is something out there, whether it be the universe or god or who knows but something must have brought us together and given us a reason to keep going and make the rest of our lives great. Its like something gave us eachother because we had already been through enough crap. He is my everything.
God is not a man that he should lie. Numbers 23:19
God is spirit…John 4:24
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, Ye are gods.
Galatian 4:24 Which things are an allegory…
Watch Bill Donahue—Episode #653 Abe, I want you to kill the kid.
Thank you so much for all this information ,,it helps me alot ,,,,I've been severally traumatized since child hood,,I'm 52,,
So codependent people are narcs? Also complex trama..narcs?.but on a spectrum?. Can narcs be empathic as well ? Id like all the help i can get cuz i do not want to be anyway like that. And i am co for sure so thats scary to me. I need to learn everything i can on this. I care deeply of how others feel and do not want to hurt anyone ever. I pray to underatand more.
Thank you so Much for sharing these Teachings Pastor Tim. I’m continuing to learn and heal. It may take my whole life but that’s okay. It’s totally worth it.
So for these narc people or co narc… it possible to get help? Like ever wake up. So much to understand here. Thx
Thank you so much for doing this. Is the test that you refer to (narc vs co-narc) available online?
This is just a sad twisted situation and condition…25:00 minutes in…you say you can tell a Narc by how they act when they get "triggered" but a co-narc can take it only so long and the Narc knows the buttons to push to create a triggered meltdown and give more shame to their Co-dependent Narc. Also a lot of co-narcs can't help but be jealous and Narcs will play on that and trigger those feelings of insecurity on purpose…plus the Narc is usually surrounded by flying monkeys while the co Narc has been left isolated in shame, abandonment and confusion! Co-Narcs get hurt easily too from all the inflicted abuse and shame by the Narc…this can get so confusing…
