Welcome to the Mental Healness Podcast, hosted by yours truly, Lee Hammock. If you're new here I have NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder) and I've been in therapy for the last 8 years learning how to deal with it and live a better life. From the start I've offered you the rare POV of a diagnosed narcissist but NOW I'm switching it up a little bit. I'm interviewing others that are dealing with their own mental health journeys and those that have dealt with toxic relationship dynamics as well. I'm still sharing my POV just sharing others as well. Collabs ✉ partnerships@mentalhealness.net

    I’m a Narcissist and This Is Why We Cheat

    Why do narcissists cheat, and what do they tell themselves to justify betraying someone who loves them? In this Mental Healness video, I share my perspective as a diagnosed narcissist on narcissism and infidelity, exploring validation, entitlement, secrecy, and avoiding accountability. I discuss how someone might rationalize cheating and why understanding those excuses does not make the betrayal your fault. This is a personal perspective, not a claim that every person with narcissistic personality disorder cheats or that everyone who cheats is a narcissist.

    II'm a Diagnosed Narcissist and This Is Why Ian Was The Villain In Obsession!

    I’m a diagnosed narcissist reacting to Obsession and breaking down why Ian’s behavior toward Bear and Nikki deserves a closer look. From hiding his relationship with Nikki to giving Bear questionable advice, I explore my interpretation of the jealousy, manipulation, and betrayal behind his “helpful friend” act. This Obsession movie reaction and character analysis examines toxic friendship, hidden motives, and what changes when you rewatch Ian’s scenes knowing his secret. Spoiler warning: this video discusses major plot points and the ending; it is commentary on fictional characters, not a clinical diagnosis.

    Why Saying No to Your Narcissistic Mother Feels So Wrong | Matilde Crocini

    Why does setting boundaries with a narcissistic mother leave you feeling like a bad daughter? In this episode of the Mental Healness Podcast, Lee Hammock sits down with Matilde Crocini, a trauma-informed Mother Wound Coach, founder of Women Reclaiming Their Fullness, and host of Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers. Matilde shares her experience of maternal control, golden-child dynamics, guilt, and family estrangement, including how setting one boundary became the beginning of no contact with her mother. We explore healing the mother wound, peoplepleasing, low contact versus no contact, her perspective on nervous system regulation, and breaking generational patterns while reclaiming your own identity.

    I'm a narcissist and here's why Caleb Flynn didn't confess at his sentencing

    In this reaction to Caleb Flynn’s sentencing allocution, I break down the psychology of denial, shame, public image, and why some people appear unable to take accountability even when the evidence and consequences are overwhelming. Flynn was convicted of murdering his wife, Ashley Flynn, and of additional charges related to the case; he was sentenced to life without parole while continuing to proclaim his innocence. This is not a clinical diagnosis of Caleb Flynn, but an analysis of narcissistic traits such as image management, blame shifting, entitlement, and avoiding responsibility. We also need to keep the focus where it belongs: Ashley Flynn, her loved ones, and the devastating impact of domestic violence. If you are experiencing abuse or feel unsafe, contact local emergency services or a domestic-violence resource.

    I’m a Narcissist and We’ve Already Prepared for You to Expose Us

    What happens when you expose a narcissist or threaten the public image they have worked to protect? I’m Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, and in this video I share my perspective on narcissistic exposure, shame, reputation protection, and avoiding accountability. I discuss smear campaigns, blame reversal, and why someone may try to discredit you before you tell your story. I also explain why speaking out does not always lead to the outcome you expect and why your safety matters more than winning a public argument.

    I’m a Narcissist and This Is Why We Blame You for Everything

    Why does a narcissist blame you for everything even things you didn’t do or couldn’t control? I’m Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, and in this video I share my perspective on blame shifting, shame, and avoiding accountability in toxic relationships. I explain how admitting wrongdoing can bring up feelings of worthlessness and why someone may redirect blame rather than face those feelings. Drawing on my own experience in therapy, I discuss what that internal struggle feels like without excusing harmful behavior.

    I’m a Narcissist and This Is Why We Still Control You Through the Kids

    Why is co-parenting with a narcissist so difficult, even when you try to keep things peaceful? I’m Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, and in this video I share my perspective on how rejection, shame, resentment, and control can fuel conflict with a toxic ex. I break down last-minute schedule changes, disrupted pickups and drop-offs, double standards around new partners, and why an ex may keep interfering even after moving on. I also discuss boundaries around your personal plans and the importance of having a backup plan when dealing with an unreliable co-parent.
