Manipulation Tactics
Gaslighting
One of the most insidious tactics narcissists employ is gaslighting. They distort reality, making their victims question their perceptions and sanity.
Playing the Victim
Narcissists are adept at playing the victim to manipulate situations in their favour. This tactic serves to deflect blame and garner sympathy.
Lack of Accountability
Shifting Blame
Taking responsibility is anathema to narcissists. They excel at shifting blame onto others, even for their own mistakes.
Avoiding Responsibility
In line with their aversion to accountability, narcissists often go to great lengths to avoid taking responsibility for their actions.
