    Ivy Insights

    The Mental Healness podcast has been an incredibly valuable resource for me in understanding and navigating toxic relationships, particularly those involving narcissistic individuals. Lee Hammock, the host of the podcast, brings a unique perspective as someone who openly admits to having narcissistic tendencies himself. This honesty and transparency create a relatable and informative experience for listeners who may be struggling with similar issues.

    One of the best aspects of The Mental Healness podcast is how it sheds light on lesser-known aspects of narcissism and toxic behavior. Lee dives deep into topics like covert narcissism, love bombing, gaslighting, and manipulation tactics that are not always discussed in mainstream books or articles written by therapists. His insights provide a comprehensive understanding of these behaviors and help listeners recognize them in their own lives.

    Furthermore, Lee's episodes are concise yet impactful, making it easy to binge-listen and absorb a wealth of knowledge in a short amount of time. His delivery is engaging and often infused with humor, making difficult topics more approachable. Additionally, Lee regularly interacts with his audience through TikTok videos and YouTube content, creating a sense of community among those who have experienced or are currently dealing with toxic relationships.

    While The Mental Healness podcast offers invaluable information on narcissism and toxic behavior, one possible drawback is that it primarily focuses on romantic relationships. While this is undoubtedly an important aspect to address, it would be beneficial to explore other types of relationships affected by narcissistic individuals such as friendships or familial relationships. Expanding the scope could further support listeners who may not have experienced a romantic relationship with a narcissist but still need guidance in dealing with toxicity.

    In conclusion, The Mental Healness podcast is an exceptional resource for anyone seeking knowledge and insight into narcissistic behavior and toxic relationships. Lee Hammock's expertise combined with his relatability creates an engaging experience that leaves listeners feeling validated and empowered. Despite some potential areas for growth in terms of exploring different types of relationships, this podcast is an invaluable tool for those seeking understanding and healing in the face of narcissism.

    Narcissists Are Toxic No Matter Who They're With (It's NOT You)

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 5, 2026 27:49


    In this video, I break down why narcissists are going to be toxic no matter who they're with and why their abuse is not proof that you weren't “enough.” Research shows that narcissistic people repeat the same relationship patterns over and over, cycling through love bombing, devaluation and discard with each new partner instead of actually changing. I'll explain how they adapt their mask to different people but keep the same core traits: entitlement, lack of empathy, objectification and a need for control. If you're watching them treat the new person “better” and blaming yourself, this video will help you see that it's the pattern and the personality, not your worth. You'll leave with language to remind yourself “It's not me, it's them” and practical steps to stop comparing yourself to the next supply and focus on healing.Book a Coaching Session: [⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠]

    In this video, I talk from the heart about why I genuinely feel bad for people stuck with narcissists who will likely never experience real happiness while they stay in these toxic, parasitic relationships. As a clinically diagnosed, self‑aware narcissist, I explain how your mind and body adapt to constant abuse, how struggle starts to feel “normal,” and why you can end up losing friends, family and even your sense of self while you keep choosing someone who is draining you. We'll look at how people who love you protect their peace by stepping back, how you become a “dark cloud,” and how the story you keep telling yourself (“I'm not good enough, they'll change”) quietly ruins your entire life. I'll break down the difference between symbiotic relationships (mutual giving) and parasitic ones (they take, you suffer), and challenge you to choose yourself, your kids and your future instead of staying trauma bonded to a loser.

    When Narcissists WANT You To Leave Them (The Reverse Discard Explained)

    In this video, I explain the “reverse discard”. When a narcissist emotionally gets rid of you, treats you horribly, and pushes you to end the relationship so they can play the victim and move on fast. As a clinically diagnosed, self‑aware narcissist, I walk through how they disconnect from you, rage, nitpick everything you do, and then say “You broke up with me” to justify a new partner, a fairytale romance, or an affair that's already been waiting in the wings. You'll learn why they still try to control you after you leave, refuse to let you move on, and expect you to stay single while they start a whole new relationship. If you're wondering whether you should “go along” with a reverse discard, I'll talk about when leaving is healthy and why you shouldn't stay where you're clearly not wanted—while still protecting your legal and safety rights. Go where you're wanted, not where you're merely tolerated, and protect yourself physically, mentally and emotionally.All My Links (Coaching, Courses, Merch): https://link.me/mentalhealnessBook a Coaching Session Here - ⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness

    In this video, I break down the main differences between an overt narcissist and a covert narcissist, two faces of the same disorder that show up very differently in relationships. Overt (grandiose) narcissists are loud, attention‑seeking and openly entitled, while covert (vulnerable) narcissists are more introverted, sensitive, passive‑aggressive and often hide their self‑importance behind fake humility or a victim mentality. Drawing on clinical research about grandiose vs vulnerable narcissism and my own perspective as a diagnosed narcissist, we'll compare how each type rages, manipulates, plays the victim and reacts to criticism. If you've ever wondered why one narcissist brags nonstop and another seems shy, anxious or “too sensitive,” this video will help you see the shared core and the surface differences.

    In this video, I break down how misogyny and narcissism overlap, and why so many misogynistic men show classic narcissistic traits like entitlement, lack of empathy and a belief they're superior to women. Drawing on research that links narcissism and hostile sexism, as well as my own perspective as a clinically diagnosed narcissist, we'll talk about how viewing women as “less than,” objectifying them and needing them as supply while secretly despising them creates a very specific form of abuse. You'll learn why these men need admiration from women they don't see as full human beings, how patriarchy and collective narcissism fuel “boys' club” misogyny, and why their behavior is about control and ego, not genuine attraction or respect. If you've dated someone who hates women, treats you like property or uses feminist language while acting deeply sexist at home, this video will give you language and clarity to understand what you're dealing with.

    3 Ways To Make a Narcissist RESPECT Your Boundaries (From a Diagnosed Narcissist)

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 28, 2026 12:16


    Trying to explain your feelings to a narcissist is like trying to explain color to someone who refuses to open their eyes, most of them don't respect your emotions or your boundaries, they respect consequences. In this video, I break down three things that could actually make a narcissist think twice: the no‑explanation boundary, the immediate if/then consequence, and emotional indifference when they test your limits. As a clinically diagnosed, self‑aware narcissist, I show you how long explanations become a roadmap to argue with you, why an unenforced boundary is just a speed bump, and how removing emotional reactions turns you into a “high‑cost, low‑reward” target. If you're tired of setting boundaries that get ignored, this video will give you language, leverage, and practical examples to help you hold the line safely.

As a clinically diagnosed, self‑aware narcissist, I explain why putting up with cheating, lies, abuse and low effort does not make you more valuable to them, it makes you more expendable, and why they resent you for seeing them at their worst. You'll hear how narcissists view you as a placeholder, why a “diamond in the wrong hands is just a paperweight,” and why they often discard the very person who helped them level up in life. If you've paid their bills, helped them get degrees, raised kids and still got abandoned, this video will give you language and perspective to understand what really happened and why their inability to value you is about them, not your worth.

We'll talk about why you stayed, why they put in such low effort, and how self‑love and boundaries matter more than trying to squeeze real love out of someone who can't give it.

We'll talk about why a relationship built on even one dishonest foundation stone will eventually crumble, how age lies on dating apps turn into lies about education, job, and marital status, and why love‑bombers cry and promise “I'll never lie again” right when you catch them. I'll walk through the age‑gap story, the way physical attraction and money make people overlook red flags, and how forgiving the first lie almost always leads to discovering a whole pattern of deception later.

    Why is being a “ride or die” for a narcissistic or toxic partner is one of the worst decisions you can make, from the perspective of a clinically diagnosed narcissist who's watched survivors emotionally die in these relationships. We'll talk about how narcissists play the victim to hook your empathy, convince you that everyone has abandoned them, and turn your loyalty into a one‑way street where you sacrifice friends, family, and boundaries while they give you nothing back. I'll explain the difference between a real ride‑or‑die bond (symbiotic, both people benefit) and the parasitic version with a narcissist, where your emotional “gold mine” gets pillaged until you barely recognize yourself.

In this video, Lee Hammock exposes the deep psychological conditioning and trauma bond that tricks your brain into treating emotional withdrawal exactly like drug withdrawal, making your own self-preservation feel like a malicious betrayal. Unlike healthy attachments where breakups are simply sad, a controlling person grooms you to feel entirely responsible for their emotional state, triggering intense survivor guilt the moment you choose to save yourself. This crushing guilt is not your moral compass telling you that you did wrong—it is simply your brain going through withdrawal, and you do not owe stability to someone who chose to make you unstable.Book a Coaching Session: [⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠]

    Can suppressing your emotions and constantly pleasing others actually cause your physical body to break down? In this powerful and eye-opening episode, host Lee Hammock sits down with nervous system and trauma specialist Dr. Nima Rahmany to uncover the deep somatic connection between emotional boundary violations and chronic illness. Dr. Nima breaks down the reality of somatic healing, explaining why traditional talk therapies often fail to reach the deep-seated emotional charges trapped inside the physical body. Together, they explore the hidden paradox of self-improvement, revealing how mainstream personal development can frequently stem from a place of self-hate rather than authentic self-acceptance. Dr. Nima maps out how a childhood history of not feeling seen forces individuals into protective habits like extreme codependency or defensive grandiosity. You will learn how swallowing your truth to maintain relationships creates internal inflammation, directly triggering autoimmune issues and physical exhaustion. Dr. Nima shares actionable insights from his Trigger Proof methodology, demonstrating how to transition your relationship with core shame from a state of constant warfare into an elegant dance of self-compassion.

From a power‑and‑control perspective, we will talk about how non‑fatal strangulation is almost never “just a moment of anger,” but a deliberate test of power and a major red flag that your abuser is willing to cross into lethal territory. You'll also learn how the presence of firearms and a history of strangulation together can send your homicide risk through the roof, why so many survivors blame themselves or downplay what happened, and why that self‑blame is part of the danger.

    What happens inside the mind of an abuser or a controlling person when you stop responding to them? In this video, Lee Hammock exposes the psychological panic that occurs when you ignore a toxic individual. You'll learn how silence starves their ego, why a complete lack of reaction strips an abusive person of their perceived power, and why your indifference is treated as an existential threat to their identity. We dive deep into the mechanics of why they would rather have you scream at them than ignore them, how your silence forces them to face their own internal emptiness, and what to expect when they launch a chaotic "extinction burst" to force you back into the ring. If you are ready to use the most powerful boundary in existence, this breakdown will give you the psychological leverage to hold your ground and protect your sanity.Book a Coaching Session: [⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠]

    Why do you stay with someone who treats you terribly, while simultaneously believing they are your soulmate? In this video, Lee Hammock breaks down the exhausting psychological reality of cognitive dissonance in toxic relationships.Cognitive dissonance occurs when your brain is forced to hold two completely conflicting beliefs at the exact same time: "they love me" versus "they hurt me."We expose how an abuser or controlling person intentionally manufactures this mental fog through a calculated push-pull dynamic of intense love bombing followed by sudden cruelty. This isn't an accident—it's a design. We walk through the mechanics of the intermittent reinforcement cycle, the strongest form of behavioral conditioning known to psychology and explain the neurological basis of why you can't just walk away. Unpredictable dopamine hits from the rare "good moments" keep your brain chemically hooked, forcing you to hold onto a fantasy version of the abuser rather than the reality of who they are.Doubting your own memory and constantly questioning your reality.Justifying their toxic behavior to your friends, family, and yourself.Constant apologizing for things you didn't even do just to keep the peace.Total paralysis in decision-making because you no longer trust your own judgment.This intense mental friction traps you in a loop that literally makes you feel like you are going crazy. If you are ready to pull back the curtain on this emotional manipulation, stop the self-doubt, and reclaim your mental health, this deep dive is for you.

    Why do abusers and controlling people refuse to give your stuff back after a breakup? In this video, Lee Hammock exposes the sinister tactics behind why toxic people hold your personal belongings hostage. You'll learn how an abusive person uses your clothes, electronics, or even important documents as an invisible tether to keep you locked into their lives and keep access to you. We dive deep into the power dynamics of why they thrive on making you beg for your things, how they use your possessions as an excuse to re-engage with you months down the line, and why they would rather destroy your items out of spite than give them back gracefully. Understanding this behavior is critical for your mental health and physical safety, helping you decide when to fight for your property and when to leave it behind to protect your peace.Connect with Lee:My Courses: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://courses.mentalhealness.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 1-on-1 Coaching Calls: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠All My Link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://beacons.page/mentalhealness ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow on Instagram/TikTok: @mentalhealnesssIf this episode helped you gain clarity, please leave a 5-star review on Spotify!

    Understanding why you feel paralyzed and unable to leave an abusive person is the first step toward freedom. In this video, Lee Hammock explains the psychological "glue" that keeps people stuck in cycles with controlling people. We dive deep into trauma bonding, intermittent reinforcement, and the fear of the unknown that toxic people weaponize to keep you compliant. If you feel like you're "waiting for the good version" of your partner to return, you are actually caught in a calculated trap designed by an abuser. Learn how to break the mental chains and realize that the fear you feel is a tool used by abusive people to maintain their power over your life.Connect with Lee:My Courses: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://courses.mentalhealness.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 1-on-1 Coaching Calls: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠All My Link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://beacons.page/mentalhealness ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow on Instagram/TikTok: @mentalhealnesssIf this episode helped you gain clarity, please leave a 5-star review on Spotify!
