Narcissists and other persons with severe personalities are particularly vulnerable to the devastation that results from a narcissistic injury of this magnitude. The narcissist will take additional action based on the strength of their current emotions.

It’s possible they feel trapped because of their anxiety and assume there’s no way out. They are more prone to run away and act as if nothing happened, even if they eventually give in and own their mistakes and seek treatment, which rarely succeeds.

If the narcissist’s hatred for the target is so great it can’t be rationalized away, they may resort to extreme measures such as casting a curse or hex on them or hiring a hitman to eliminate them. If a narcissist could persuade someone else to do their dirty work without any repercussions, there is nothing they wouldn’t do.

When they feel wounded, the dark side becomes more apparent. They may play the victim to gain sympathy, but that’s just a distraction from their real agenda. But if you’re an expert, you can hone in on what’s off and have bitter their resentment really is. They will reveal everything to you as they see it with their own eyes.

10 Things to Expect When You Break Up With A Narcissist

When a narcissist feels hurt, they experience a wide range of painful emotions. Some of the most common ones include fear, wrath, hatred, and shame. The narcissist’s natural negativity is merely amplified by this.

A narcissist can’t take the combined blow of being insulted, humiliated, and abandoned, and just like every other narcissistic injury; the damage can never be repaired. Each of their narcissistic put-downs makes them feel bad about themselves, which makes them even more miserable and unpleasant to be around.

Narcissists, if denied the opportunity for revenge, can become insane or violent. They aren’t interested in making amends or recovering from past hurts. The older they become, the less likely it is that they will let go of their grudges or their denial, hence the less likely it is that they will ever change for the better.
