While you may feel frustrated by a loved one’s unwillingness to change, remember that it’s not your fault. You can encourage them to receive care, but they have to want it for this to succeed.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stay calm and don’t take things personally.&lt;/strong&gt; People with NPD may try to antagonize or draw a reaction, especially when lashing out. Don’t take it personally, and don’t respond in kind.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://health.clevelandclinic.org/how-to-set-boundaries/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Set healthy boundaries&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt; People with NPD often consciously or unconsciously try to get what they want by going to others. If you have a loved one with NPD, setting healthy boundaries may be necessary. Make sure you communicate what you’re willing and unwilling to do, and hold fast once you set boundaries. It may be difficult, but giving in to their demands won’t help (and may make things worse).&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Protect yourself&lt;/strong&gt;. People with NPD often resort to &lt;a href=&quot;https://health.clevelandclinic.org/gaslighting/&quot;&gt;gaslighting&lt;/a&gt; (trying to convince you that either you or they said or did something differently) to undermine your boundaries. Keep notes or a journal if you think you’ll need to be certain in the future about what you said or did. They may also lash out (either verbally or physically) out of anger. Be sure to protect your own health and well-being.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Take care of your own mental health&lt;/strong&gt;. People who have loved ones with NPD should consider seeing a mental health professional also. Doing so can help you better work through your own emotions and difficulties surrounding NPD, and better prepare you for how to deal with the effects of this condition in a loved one.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don’t ignore warning signs&lt;/strong&gt;. People with NPD have a higher risk of dying by suicide. If you suspect a loved one with NPD is withdrawing or considering harming themselves, talk to them directly. Call 911 (or your local emergency services number) immediately if you think they’re in imminent danger.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.reddit.com/user/okhzmuskhsm&quot;&gt; /u/okhzmuskhsm &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.reddit.com/r/bsv/comments/1dg67ay/how_to_deal_with_craig_wright/&quot;&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.reddit.com/r/bsv/comments/1dg67ay/how_to_deal_with_craig_wright/&quot;&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><id>t3_1dg67ay</id><link href="https://www.reddit.com/r/bsv/comments/1dg67ay/how_to_deal_with_craig_wright/"/><updated>2024-06-15T01:02:20+00:00</updated><published>2024-06-15T01:02:20+00:00</published><title>How to deal with Craig Wright</title></entry>
