danielbarzohar User ID: 37998008 United States 07/17/2020 05:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I did this. I went Empath Supernova on my own mother when, in the wake of my father's suicide, she told me to be quiet (ie not cry or grieve) because someone was on a work conference call instead of giving me a hug or showing me any compassion. Quoting: Paranoid Chick That small little nag - in the midst of a traumatic family crisis - was the last straw after a lifetime of zero empathy nor compassion and hypercriticism from my own mother, and I nuked her and my entire family (who were agreeing with her, emotionally retarded and dysfunctional cunts) from orbit. Nobody ever even hugged me, not even after I cleaned up some of his brains and skull. No one dared to hug me or even give me a 2 second pat on my back. Instead, I was told to shut up while they divided up HIS money and wouldn't even write him an obituary or have a service for him, like he was some John Doe nobody. No wonder he killed himself, amirite? They all disowned me after my MOAB on them...and my completely innocent 11 year old daughter. I told them all of their darkest fears and weaknesses, things they had never said aloud. It just came out in that moment, like I had always inherently known but never consciously admitted. Fucking disgusting lot, those people. But, yeah, Empath Supernova. It's a thing, look it up. And I was my father's advocate that day and thereafter. I tried to be his advocate in life, too, but none of them cared. They never cared about anything but his money and themselves. Anyway, here is my dad's obituary that I wrote for him. My mom was pissed that it didn't mention her. Bitch didn't even want to write one but was irritated when HIS obituary wasn't about her. Idgaf if this obit doxes anyone. [link to www.allensummerhillfuneralhome.com (secure)] Sorry for the personal therapy session, Lance, but weaponizing Empaths is legit possible, and we can cut a person to their soul, if pushed. I know because I did it. Wow, you just struck a chord with me. My dad killed himself and my narcissistic mom insisted that we not cry at the funeral. She was filled with hate for my dad abandoning her by killing himself. Now she is 87 years old and still hateful. She refused to let me care for her and picked my younger brother who is a grandiose narcissist. My brother took care of her for 5 months and then put her in a nursing home. Even though she has not changed, my heart still breaks for her suffering. My brother rarely sees her and I try to call her a couple times a week to cheer her up. Instead of going supernova, I have always tried to point out my dad's compassion and good qualities that she still refuses to accept. "Do only that, which would be acceptable to all mankind." |

However to your last point, yes there are many Narcissists lurking in those groups but obviously they are quickly outed. Empaths, I assure you, are NOT narcissists. They can absorb that negative energy yes and mimic their counterparts but it's just a reflection of the abuser. Yep |

Narcissist projecting and gaslighting. He's upset because he knows he doesn't HAVE Empathy and fills the room with toxicity. Narcs always out themselves because they can't control their hate.

However, it is moreso a narcissist who kinda uses this technique. Or let's say as well. Only that a narcissist usually targets friendly people or a potential victim. While an empath uses it to decloak people which speak with a twisted tongue. ~ Ad astra audacter eamus in alis fidelium ~ "Then the lion shall lie down with the lamb and the bear shall eat grass like the ox and the child shall play on the hole of the asp and nothing shall hurt nor destroy in all My Holy Mountain."

Quoting: Loup Garou They understand Order like this and know how to use it to their full potential. Operation Chao et Discordia in full effect. The Principia Discordia holds three core principles: the Aneristic Principle (order), the Eristic Principle (disorder) and the notion that both are mere illusions. Chao is simply the yin and yang, each equal to the other and serve as balance. Do you have a link for this? |

Louis in Richmond That is my arm now; broken for 7 months User ID: 76681812 United States 07/17/2020 06:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Great thread Lance. And as others have pointed out we are anything but narcissistic. We understand others, know their fears, and share their feelings. Pushed into a corner though, we can cause others' suicide to end the oppression. We don't don't because we know better, but can if the person is a danger to others. Until your military service has required you neutralize enemy combatants and invaders in the defense of your country, don't presume to tell us that have defended you that you don't support every shot we fired to eliminate that enemy. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78607611 United States 07/17/2020 06:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I always thought Borderline Personality Disorders were excellent Empaths that turned a gift into a weapon. They know exactly what your “triggers” are in 5 min of meeting them. Now THAT is skillful. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73506157 In personal reLationships, I’ve learned to throw these types a “bone”. A false vulnerability to see if they use it against me, then “bye bye”. Of course professionally, I just have to deal with them and never get triggered lol, easier said than done. This is an intuitive, not an empath. Empaths tend to isolate themselves or limit in person contact as much as possible; people are exhausting to them. Borderline psychics are the only ones who can be weaponized, but mostly can only project positive energy as the negative energy backfires terribly. They are good for making an enemy more open minded and trusting, and can be useful in negotiations. |

In my work, I can see people’s fears and their stress. It allows me to address those things and free them from their pain. It also allows me to avoid high drama people to begin with. I can tell almost instantly if someone is an asshole and only let them in a little bit. But yes. I know their weaknesses and do my best to alleviate them. Until they hurt me too hard. I always first simply draw a boundary. If the boundary is continuously crossed, watch out. |

A ping pong Quoting: Lance Roseman From BC Yes, empaths feel the fears and tears and woes of others but weaponized? They can rip and tear your ego structure apart with nothing but words. As in the rules of a formal debate, he/she who loses their shit first loses. Empaths can feel your darkness. They can sense your soft spots. This is a unique power and aside from punching out someone who points out your dankest weaknesses. There is no recourse. One or two words and you are fucked because truth is spoken. SO empaths are not weak, empaths are passively potent. Ever been 'dressed down by a superior'? That is an empath in full glory. empaths... so you mean most human being who are normal compassionate caring people with feelings so every one who is not a sociopath then Denmark is right, you know. People who identify as “empaths” are actually self-important to a flaw. They spend their life being offended by every little thing. It is a difficult ego component to overcome. |
