    Narcissist vs. Narcissist: Why the Alpha Always Comes Out on Top

    In this eye-opening episode, Ross Rosenberg introduces his groundbreaking Human Magnet Syndrome Workbook and unveils his powerful "Alpha Narcissist Theory."Drawing from decades of clinical experience and deep psychological insight, Rosenberg explores the rarely discussed dynamic that occurs when two narcissists enter a relationship—a battle of control, manipulation, and dominance. He explains how, in these high-conflict partnerships, one narcissist inevitably emerges as the more dominant figure—the Alpha Narcissist—while the other assumes a more submissive, enabling role, even if both exhibit narcissistic traits.This compelling theory sheds new light on how narcissistic relationships don't just implode—but can actually stabilize when a clear hierarchy is established.Consider subscribing to Ross Rosenberg's/Self-Love Recovery Institute's new Patreon Subscription, where you can access exclusive content, insights, and services. https://www.patreon.com/RossRosenbergSLRIatreon Recharge with David KoChats with Kevin Bacon, Chelsea Handler, Jordan Chiles, Common and Sheryl Lee RalphListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

    Ross Rosenberg and Jerry Weiss discuss codependency and its effects on identity and family dynamics. Jerry, a recovering codependent, shares how codependency impacted his self-esteem and happiness. They introduce Murray Bowen's family systems theory, highlighting how interconnected family behaviors influence individual identities and can perpetuate issues like codependency and narcissism across generations, illustrated by the concept of "family system Wi-Fi."The hosts also explore self-differentiation, the process of separating one's identity from family influences, which is often resisted in dysfunctional families. They use analogies like a thermostat and escape velocity to describe the challenges of breaking free from unhealthy dynamics. The episode touches on the cycle of hope experienced by codependents in relationships with narcissists, who often neglect their own needs for validation.As the conversation unfolds, they stress the importance of self-focus and the potential loss of relationships during the journey of self-love and recovery. Jerry provides resources for support, including coaching and free training on his website. The episode concludes by encouraging listeners to reflect on their experiences and the systemic nature of their relational patterns, promoting healing and self-discovery.ABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

    The Humanization Projection: When Our "Vision" of the Narcissist Fails Us.

    In this video, Ross Rosenberg elaborates on his "Humanization Trick" concept, shifting the focus from the manipulative tactics of narcissists to the role of individuals with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLD) or codependency in this dynamic. He explains that codependents unconsciously engage in the "Humanization Trick" by convincing themselves that their narcissistic partners deserve sympathy, compassion, and empathy, even in the face of abusive behavior. This self-deception arises from deep fears of abandonment, pathological loneliness, and core shame. Their dread of being alone and feelings of unworthiness lead them to rationalize their partner's mistreatment rather than confront the harsh realities of the relationship. This internalized trick ultimately keeps them trapped in toxic cycles, reinforcing their emotional dependency on the narcissist.Consider subscribing to Ross Rosenberg's/Self-Love Recovery Institute's new Patreon Subscription, where you can access exclusive content, insights, and services.ABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

    In this touching episode, Ross Rosenberg delves into the essential principles of codependency recovery, which he calls "self-love recovery." With clarity, compassion, and empathy, he presents a compelling explanation for how individuals with self-love deficit disorder (codependency) can break free from their long-standing pattern of getting involved with destructive narcissists and instead embrace a life filled with abundant self-love.He emphasizes that while codependents, or Self-Love Deficient individuals (SLDs), are never to blame for the abuse they endure in relationships with narcissists, taking personal responsibility is essential to healing. Drawing on his Human Magnet Syndrome framework, he explains how SLDs are unconsciously drawn to narcissists due to deeply ingrained relationship templates formed during childhood.These factors create a powerful, unconscious attraction to narcissistic partners, who initially seem familiar and safe but ultimately lead to dysfunctional relationships. Ross highlights that SLDs often stay in these relationships due to pathological loneliness, core shame, and relationship addiction, despite the harmful impact on themselves and their loved ones. He encourages viewers to confront these inner forces, break free from the cycle, and cultivate self-love. By taking responsibility and committing to recovery, SLDs can overcome their self-love deficiency and achieve a healthier, self-loving life. Support the showABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

    Emotional Dysmorphia: Regaining What Was Stolen from You

    In this podcast, Ross Rosenberg delves into "emotional dysmorphia," a term he coined to describe the internalized, distorted self-perceptions often developed by those with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLDD), or codependency. Much like body dysmorphia, emotional dysmorphia involves pervasive feelings of inadequacy or being unlovable, which persist despite contradictory evidence and affirmations from others.Ross explains how these beliefs are reinforced through abusive relationships, particularly with narcissists, and gives insight into mechanisms like projection and projective identification, where individuals begin to see themselves through a distorted, negative lens. This concept is key to understanding SLDD, as it shows how pervasive feelings of inadequacy can perpetuate harmful relationship patterns.Ross emphasizes that with the right support, including his Self-Love Recovery treatment, it's possible to dismantle these negative beliefs and cultivate self-love.Support the show

For most 12-step groups, a chemical or substance is the culprit, but for others like CoDA, it is a pattern of behavior that creates chaos and unmanageability in their life.  In this video, Ross Rosenberg explains why CoDA has been flawed since its inception and continues to be so. Through a historical analysis of the organization, he shows how CoDA's “co-dependency” term originated from 1950s alcohol and drug treatment programs attempt to understand the partners of alcoholics or “co-alcoholics.” When the field shifted to “chemical dependency” as the catch-all term for all addictions, including alcohol, the term briefly shifted to co-chemical dependency. Having too many letters/words, it was almost immediately shorted to “co-dependency.” CoDA's step one identifies its co-dependent's primary out-of-control compulsion as trying to change or controlling people who are unwilling or unable to change. ABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

Similar to his previous videos on BPD (which have amassed 1.8 million views), he provides insights from his distinctive perspective as a mental health service provider with a one-of-a-kind intellect.A decade later, Rosenberg once again presents a heart-wrenching account of the horrifying realities endured by those who have suffered abuse at the hands of someone with borderline personality disorder.DISCLAIMER: This podcast does not aim to criticize the extremely challenging psychological condition known as BPD. Instead, it serves as a helpful resource for individuals who have been hurt, abused, and/or traumatized by those with this diagnosis. The intention is not to highlight the negative aspects of people diagnosed with BPD but rather to offer a valuable mental health resource for those who have experienced abuse from their loved ones who suffer from this disorder. Sadly, the unfortunate reality is that individuals with BPD often end up hurting the people they care about or hold dear.While I possess a considerable understanding of the disorder, I must clarify that I am not a specialist or an expert in its treatment. My expertise lies in working with individuals whom I classify as "Self-Love Deficients" (codependents) suffering from Self-Love Deficit Disorder (codependency).

You can witness this dedication in my book, "The Human Magnet Syndrome," as well as in my various videos and training resources.I want to clarify that my intention is not to cast blame on individuals with BPD but rather to provide support and guidance to my clients in breaking free from toxic and abusive relationships.

    With a new introduction, Ross re-shares the video that has changed thousands of lives. The most effective of all the narcissist's manipulative strategies is “Induced Conversation.” Especially when breaking down a no-contact initiative or when trying to hoover (suck back into the relationship) the codependent. For codependents to not get sucked back into the relationship that has nearly destroyed them, they must have potent countermeasures to survive the narcissist's induced conversation strategies.Induced conversation is the primary weapon that the narcissist wrestler uses to maintain their power and control over you. As you begin setting boundaries, breaking off the relationship, and even utilizing the ODA technique, you will fail if you do not understand what is at stake for the narcissist. Remember, their number one goal is to keep you in the wrestling ring.Narcissists are nothing by themselves, despite what they may tell themselves. They need you like they need oxygen to live. Internally, they are filled with insecurity, shame, and dread, regardless of if they are conscious of it. Most narcissists can't become aware of these internal battles. There may be rare moments where they can connect with their shame, such as moments when they meltdown, beg, plead, and promise you everything so they can keep you in their life. However, that window closes quickly and is unlikely to reopen. They simply are oblivious to their darker sides and their shame.Induced conversation is what keeps them in control of the relationship. It is how they command their powers and control strategies. After all, if they can get you to respond, defend yourself, or argue, you will be right back in the wrestling ring with them.To wield this power, the narcissist has to get you to talk to them first. If you try to go no-contact, the only way for them to get back into your life is through induced conversation.Support the Show.
