Get Happy! Folge 207: Narzissten erkennen (und meiden) – mit Dr. Britta Papay

#207 Recognizing (and Avoiding) Narcissists – with Dr. Britta Papay I know the title of this episode is quite provocative, and yet I chose it very deliberately. Over the past four weeks, we've heard about many different facets of the phenomenon of narcissism, and in this episode, I want to focus on how we can better protect ourselves from narcissistic or simply toxic people in the long term, or at least set boundaries, when we have few options to avoid them completely. For example, at work or when we have children with them. Ideally, we recognize people with a strong narcissistic personality structure early on, so that we don't even get drawn into a deeper relationship with them because they are simply not good for us. Because the longer we're stuck in it, the harder it becomes to find a way out. This episode will also explore why that is. It's important for me to emphasize again that I absolutely do not want to excuse the damaging, toxic, or even dangerous behavior of narcissistic people! I find it incredibly helpful to understand this topic in depth, not only for self-reflection but also to protect myself and prevent future abuse. I've been in numerous relationships with narcissistic partners because, as the child of two highly narcissistic parents, I was able to cope well and felt almost at home in that environment. In other words, I know the abuse very well, and I also know the pain it causes. "Covered Narcissists: How We Unmask Them and Take Away Their Power" is the title of the new book by systemic therapist Dr. Britta Papay. Like all my guests, she specialized in the topic of narcissism several years ago, and I'm delighted that she's joining us as the grand finale. **With many thanks to my advertising partner Koro** https://serv.linkster.co/r/LaNexTnlk2 Save 5% on the entire range at Koro now with the code "GETHAPPY" Links to Dr. Britta Papay: https://brittapapay.com/ https://www.next-level-verlag.de/prod... https://www.instagram.com/dr.brittapa...   / dr-britta-papay-2ab460131   Links to Kathie Kleff: My latest book, "How I Became ME," is available here.
