How do you deal with a petty narcissist?

It depends on who they are in your life; it's easier said than done when you are a family member, a friend, or even a romantic partner. If this is the case, move yourself away gradually, although usually they won't even care that you left their lives because most narcs aren't even aware they are the problem.

@Aysel You took words out of my mouth

Just leave. Imagine trying to deal with a venomous snake who bites people

Would you try to find ways to explain to it not to bite you? Or do you keep your distance?
Treat them like that

You really just cant. Even therapists i know cannot help them as they dont see any issue.

@Perry1968 This. It's the manipulation and victim mentality tactics that they pull that's why therapy don't work on these people

No contact, or minimize contact. The less you interact with them, the better. The key is to avoid being manipulated or victimized by them.

@SW-User I'm trying to avoid them but it only increased their narcissistic rage, and he's getting back at me by trying all he can to get on my nerves right now.

You cut them out. There isn't room for that..

Understand them.. And this is simpler than you think. In fact Gamers already have it down. The Narcissist is the first person player in the game.. Everyone else is just an NPC. To be used, scored from or pushed aside.. Thats everyone else..Some NPCs are more useful than others or worth more points. But they are still NPCs. Never forget that..😷

My mother is a malignant narcissist. We haven’t spoken in roughly 20 blissful years

Ask a mental health professional

Ignore them. Cut them from your life whenever possible.

Not to be flippant, but all narcs = away.

@uncalled4 That makes a lot of sense
Bleed them dry.

lick their eyebrows
Completely cut them out of your life, then watch how fast they blame you.
