Tips on Curbing Destructive Conditioning

Extinction of our destructively conditioned responses can occur when we are able to confront the fear of achieving by repeatedly engaging in goal-directed behavior without the presence of the narcissist’s punishment. Make a list of past successes, accomplishments, happy moments, and any other sources of joy that have been tainted by a narcissistic abuser. Write down how they sabotaged you, how you felt, and the aftermath of experiencing this sabotage. Then brainstorm ways in which you can reconnect to that source of joy independently of the narcissist. Here are some examples:

If your narcissistic friend always degraded your dream career, think about ways you can pursue that goal anyway.

If your toxic parent always rained on your birthday celebrations, start a habit of inviting only friends and relatives who are supportive of you to join you on your special day.

Avoid telling narcissistic individuals about upcoming happy events or recent successes.

Honor your accomplishments frequently by holding special ceremonies and gatherings that do not include the toxic person.
