The Little Shaman - The Hero Narcissist
The Little Shaman explains how to spot the Hero Narcissist.This is a very important type to be aware of, because they appear so compassionate, but they are actually very uncaring. They will do so much for strangers, who then give them admiration in return and they may have no caring for family members, who cannot rely on them at all to be there for them.
All the while they are impressing strangers with how saintly they supposedly are.
This type of narcissist can be very confusing to deal with.
The following song makes it come alive: the song is from the point of view of the spouse of a hero narcissist or the child of a hero narcissist, who are considered last, if at all.
The information in the below video "Three Reasons Narcissists Discard", by The Little Shaman can help put this music video into context.
The woman in the music video has been cast aside. Her spouse has left her as well as his little son ! He is completely uninterested in his own son. Instead he is chasing the narcissistic supply of strangers, which is more valuable to him than the love and trust of his child and spouse, because the admiration of strangers is untainted by their lack of knowledge of his shockingly uncaring nature. The admiration of strangers is narcissistic supply and can be turned into feelings of self worth. This is a much quicker fix for his self worth and so much easier than stepping up to his responsibilities.
Cheryl Barnes - Easy to be hard
These are the lyrics to the song:
How can people be so heartless?
How can people be so cruel?
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
How can people have no feelings?
You know I’m hung up on you
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no
Especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil
And social injustice
Do you only care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a freind
How can people be so heartless?
How can they ignore their friends?
Easy to give in
Easy to help out
Especially people who care about strangers
Who say they care about social injustice
Do you only care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend
How can people have no feelings?
How can they ignore their friends?
Easy to be hard
Easy to help out
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no
