Awakening a Narc - Slight shifts in my Narcissistic Self


Being a Narcissist, wearing a mask comes very naturally to me and I could never understand when Sree Maa pin point about how I am still wearing the mask or not being real or why I was still faking. 



It was very hard for me to understand why Sree Maa is saying this, after all, I went beyond all level to impress, win and be better than everyone and I worked really hard for it but rather than that I was exposed all the time. I could not understand why? I mean it worked before on most of the people but how I am failing all the time, every moment, every second in front of Sree Maa




As reflection and introspection were two alien words for me, I talked myself of trying and pushing it bit more  harder  and pretend more, In fact I  learn new tricks, new image and studies more in details so that finally I would be able to win and control Sree Maa..but that just my wishful thinking!



Now looking back, I am so glad Sree Maa expressed it straightforwardly to me all the time and finally after 36 years of age, the day came when something clicked inside me and I saw, how actually I am fooling myself, that how toxic my games are, that how I "ACT" like a victim despite being the biggest "VICTIMSER" - it just clicked in my mind.



I still remember that day, I receive Sree Maas message which mentioned about how I am using people as supply. My typical behaviour was to Blame first and then act victim and get upset, irritated. It was extremely hard for me to come out of that victim zone. 



I could not understand why: after all I was working so hard and why I am not being appreciated. Why me? Why poor me? But that day a magic happened, I realize that if I was really work hard to change then why I am not able to take Sree Maa's feedback in positive way, why I instantly go in victim zone. 


Soon I questioned myself, was i really working hard to change or working hard to create another mask to trap Sree Maa as a supply. Otherwise  why I  would I get triggered all the time after being  exposed. 


I asked myself if I was genuine, I would really took the precious feedback of Sree Maa, who is selflessly, without any expectation working so hard.


Why isn't there any gratitude in my words or actions? Actually, I further delved, what is Gratitude!!
