so a lot of people struggle with being addicted or dependent to external validation or belonging and I want to ask you all a simple question how do I become independent of the charity of others to feed me how do I no longer become dependent on other people's pantries for food I have to have my own Pantry that's stocked see you only need external validation when you were not happy with yourself external validation is when there is a lack of internal validation see narcissism involves a dependence upon the opinions of others this is why narcissists can't
tolerate criticism because if you tell me that I am a bad person I don't feel good on the inside so your opinion determines my reality narcissism is about insecurity it's insecurity that's root because if I believed in myself I don't need your approval
