Welcome to the Mental Healness Podcast, hosted by yours truly, Lee Hammock. If you're new here I have NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder) and I've been in therapy for the last 8 years learning how to deal with it and live a better life. From the start I've offered you the rare POV of a diagnosed narcissist but NOW I'm switching it up a little bit. I'm interviewing others that are dealing with their own mental health journeys and those that have dealt with toxic relationship dynamics as well. I'm still sharing my POV just sharing others as well. Collabs ✉ partnerships@mentalhealness.net

Why does setting boundaries with a narcissistic mother leave you feeling like a bad daughter? In this episode of the Mental Healness Podcast, Lee Hammock sits down with Matilde Crocini, a trauma-informed Mother Wound Coach, founder of Women Reclaiming Their Fullness, and host of Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers. Matilde shares her experience of maternal control, golden-child dynamics, guilt, and family estrangement, including how setting one boundary became the beginning of no contact with her mother. We explore healing the mother wound, peoplepleasing, low contact versus no contact, her perspective on nervous system regulation, and breaking generational patterns while reclaiming your own identity.

In this reaction to Caleb Flynn’s sentencing allocution, I break down the psychology of denial, shame, public image, and why some people appear unable to take accountability even when the evidence and consequences are overwhelming. Flynn was convicted of murdering his wife, Ashley Flynn, and of additional charges related to the case; he was sentenced to life without parole while continuing to proclaim his innocence. This is not a clinical diagnosis of Caleb Flynn, but an analysis of narcissistic traits such as image management, blame shifting, entitlement, and avoiding responsibility. We also need to keep the focus where it belongs: Ashley Flynn, her loved ones, and the devastating impact of domestic violence. If you are experiencing abuse or feel unsafe, contact local emergency services or a domestic-violence resource.Free Guide on healing from betrayal - https://betrayal-reset.subscribepage.io/Book a Coaching Session: [https://link.me/mentalhealness]🔥 My Books: [https://a.co/d/2WNtdKJ]🎙 Listen to the Mental Healness Podcast: [https://youtube.com/@mentalhealnesspodcast?si=AVcJfHa16HZReqHL]
What happens when you expose a narcissist or threaten the public image they have worked to protect? I’m Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, and in this video I share my perspective on narcissistic exposure, shame, reputation protection, and avoiding accountability. I discuss smear campaigns, blame reversal, and why someone may try to discredit you before you tell your story. I also explain why speaking out does not always lead to the outcome you expect and why your safety matters more than winning a public argument.

Why does a narcissist blame you for everything even things you didn’t do or couldn’t control? I’m Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, and in this video I share my perspective on blame shifting, shame, and avoiding accountability in toxic relationships. I explain how admitting wrongdoing can bring up feelings of worthlessness and why someone may redirect blame rather than face those feelings. Drawing on my own experience in therapy, I discuss what that internal struggle feels like without excusing harmful behavior.

In this Mental Healness Podcast interview, Brianne shares her experience of narcissistic abuse, gaslighting, financial control, and the struggle to break a trauma bond after an eight-year relationship. She describes questioning herself over missing prescription medication, returning after multiple separations, and saving money to buy a home for herself and her sons. Host Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, explores how empathy, guilt, and promises of change can become part of a toxic relationship cycle. Brianne also discusses the difficulty of staying separated while navigating divorce and rebuilding her independence. Content note: this episode includes accounts of domestic violence, strangulation, firearm discharge, and prescription medication misuse.
Why is co-parenting with a narcissist so difficult, even when you try to keep things peaceful? I’m Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, and in this video I share my perspective on how rejection, shame, resentment, and control can fuel conflict with a toxic ex. I break down last-minute schedule changes, disrupted pickups and drop-offs, double standards around new partners, and why an ex may keep interfering even after moving on. I also discuss boundaries around your personal plans and the importance of having a backup plan when dealing with an unreliable co-parent.

I’m a diagnosed narcissist, and in this video I explain how narcissistic people can use religion, faith, scripture, guilt, and forgiveness to control their partners and avoid accountability. I break down religious manipulation, spiritual abuse, weaponizing God, forced forgiveness, and the red flags that can make you question your own judgment. Faith itself is not the problem, using faith to excuse mistreatment, demand obedience, or silence someone is the problem. If someone uses God, religion, or “forgiveness” to keep you in a harmful relationship, you deserve support and safety.

She describes escaping with her five children while her ex-husband was out of town and rebuilding a safe, peaceful life. Lee Hammock, a diagnosed narcissist, discusses early warning signs, love bombing, reactive abuse, control disguised as protection, and why leaving can be so dangerous. This survivor story is shared to raise awareness and help anyone who recognizes similar patterns in their own relationship.
