The Hidden Sadism Behind Narcissistic Hoovering
- (Hoovering or re-Idealizing) between reality and falsehood…
The classic psychological analysis assumed this:
When you are with a Narcissist, all your flaws will become magnified because narcissism lacks the ability to see anyone’s realistic way. They automatically devalue. When you’re away, they kinda forget your flaws and re-idealize you again.
So the whole assumption here is built on Object Constancy.
According to this theory:
Object Constancy comes and goes. Like my salary does? Or maybe like the electric current in fucking Beirut.
Or the angels of object constancy visit the narcissist monthly, and bless them with it.
If you really wanna close this chapter in your life and heal, you deserve to learn the truth.
.
Back to the truth.
Object constancy is another falsehood that is scapegoating you and keeping you from its corresponding truth and healing.
If everything we learned at childhood stage was channeled through physical objects and its permanence, how can we understand abstract things and ideas, that we never saw and it’s not even objects?
