Hi there. This is Tracy and today. I want to make [this] video in Reply to a comment
0:00:05.339,0:00:09.629
that someone left on [one] of my videos about sisters and
0:00:10.269,0:00:16.409
they told me that I sounded like their sister who always played victim and
0:00:17.170,0:00:19.649
What I want to clarify is I?
0:00:20.920,0:00:22.920
was a victim and
0:00:23.140,0:00:25.379
So were you and so?
0:00:25.900,0:00:31.650
How do we tell the difference between someone a narcissist who is faking Victim?
0:00:32.410,0:00:33.460
versus
0:00:33.460,0:00:37.950
Someone who was a victim and how [does] it sound to the world?
0:00:38.379,0:00:45.629
Because it sounds the same rate and and I look back at the three match tapes
0:00:45.629,0:00:49.769
I had many many many years ago and I
0:00:50.680,0:00:57.419
Sounded crazy. I didn’t understand all the stuff that had happened to me and
0:00:58.480,0:01:04.229
It was frightening to me, so I probably sounded like a victim and I probably sounded crazy
0:01:06.220,0:01:09.959
if we look at the narcissist and the way that they always play victim
0:01:11.020,0:01:17.460
They play Victim and so there’s holes in their story things that aren’t going to add up
0:01:17.710,0:01:19.710
the truth isn’t there for
0:01:20.290,0:01:22.679
me when I talk about being a victim of
0:01:23.500,0:01:31.379
narcissist abuse whether it’s with my mother my ex-husband his crazy family my ex-boyfriend [my] [sisters] [I]
0:01:33.220,0:01:39.059
Have truth to it and now I have words for it. So there’s a difference in
0:01:40.840,0:01:45.600
Understanding that when they play victim [they] could certainly use the vocabulary
0:01:46.479,0:01:51.839
But as I have learned that to identify the difference between someone
0:01:52.540,0:01:53.860
fake
0:01:53.860,0:01:58.799
Victim and a real person [that] was a victim if we look at this and
0:02:00.670,0:02:02.469
We try to analyze
0:02:02.469,0:02:10.139
How we sound to other people we really have to be aware that we do sound like a victim now and again
0:02:10.869,0:02:18.029
But that we were and if we don’t go through victim as planned out there, and I’m not not going to be
0:02:19.450,0:02:21.450
[hello]
0:02:21.970,0:02:24.269
We were victims
0:02:25.599,0:02:32.459
We have to get out a victim and that’s an important role, and it’s a fine line for me to cross
0:02:33.010,0:02:40.590
With making videos to help you and share with you parts of my story because people are always telling me [that] when I talk about
0:02:40.870,0:02:43.259
specific things that have happened in [my] life
0:02:43.260,0:02:50.700
[and] I didn’t understand them before and now this whole new lens thing is is helping me understand things that have happened
0:02:51.819,0:02:54.149
So for me to sound like a victim
0:02:54.340,0:03:00.299
It’s a great possibility because I’m now for the first time confessing what I?
0:03:01.060,0:03:02.890
Learned and what they didn’t know
0:03:02.890,0:03:08.250
So for the last 55 years or so you would have not heard me ever saying I was a victim
0:03:08.500,0:03:15.449
It would have never heard me say that people were doing wrong to me. That’s never been my mo
0:03:16.209,0:03:17.819
Confusion, yes, okay, Via
0:03:17.819,0:03:22.169
I have been confused for the last four years since my divorce and
0:03:22.569,0:03:25.108
I didn’t understand the attacks
0:03:25.109,0:03:31.859
I didn’t understand the anger and a crazy stiff stuff that happened to me but
0:03:33.250,0:03:35.250
How do we get past that?
0:03:36.040,0:03:38.040
so many people in
0:03:38.829,0:03:43.469
this recovery world get stuck and victim and a
0:03:44.500,0:03:49.799
Really good way [for] you to understand and and move out a victim is to
0:03:52.569,0:03:54.569
look within yourself and
0:03:55.090,0:03:56.109
decide
0:03:56.109,0:04:00.299
you were a victim, but now you’re a survivor and it’s
0:04:00.849,0:04:07.048
The way we talk and [it’s] the way we speak and the education that [we] have behind our
0:04:07.599,0:04:09.370
story of abuse
0:04:09.370,0:04:11.140
Now we can
0:04:11.140,0:04:15.910
[2phi] exactly what their plan was what was happening and what?
0:04:16.459,0:04:22.268
[our] accountability was you see a narcissist, Ori is never going to have any accountability?
0:04:22.730,0:04:24.730
That’s it really in a nutshell
0:04:25.160,0:04:27.369
everything happens to them and
0:04:27.920,0:04:32.679
They did nothing wrong. Well I can say I did things wrong [I]
0:04:33.290,0:04:36.429
Accepted that behavior. I didn’t know better and
0:04:37.040,0:04:39.369
I think if we all look back
0:04:39.440,0:04:43.779
We can take accountability for our part in enabling them
0:04:44.240,0:04:51.370
Enabling my sisters by constantly helping them stepping in when they needed me being there which sounds to me like
0:04:51.770,0:04:53.260
Really good person, right?
0:04:53.260,0:04:58.659
That’s what I always envisioned myself as their their caretaker their helper
0:04:58.850,0:05:04.209
But I really was their enabler, and that’s where the accountability raised is I
0:05:05.810,0:05:07.810
Didn’t know what they were doing
0:05:07.940,0:05:11.260
But they knew what they were doing and they knew how to manipulate me
0:05:12.320,0:05:14.320
Now I can say I
0:05:14.540,0:05:16.689
Didn’t see it, but now I do [I]
0:05:17.240,0:05:22.450
Hope that makes sense to you, and I want you to look at the way that you talk about being a victim
0:05:22.450,0:05:27.549
[I] don’t want you to not say I’ve never been a victim. That’s bullshit
0:05:28.310,0:05:35.260
Or I’d move right past Victim Ni now Survivor forever because it’s a long journey
0:05:35.900,0:05:37.900
it’s a long confusion of
0:05:38.419,0:05:41.319
unraveling that the ties in our life that
0:05:42.290,0:05:49.299
[we] weren’t aware of the only way to not be effective again is to understand. Why you were a victim
0:05:50.000,0:05:56.769
What was your role? What did you do to enable someone to abuse you?
0:05:58.010,0:06:02.080
Were you codependent were you a trauma bonded person?
0:06:03.650,0:06:10.299
Did you just want to help everyone were you a people pleaser? There’s so many things that go [into] the
0:06:11.600,0:06:13.600
intricacies of our life
0:06:14.390,0:06:16.659
But it’s accountability. That’s in the end
0:06:17.570,0:06:21.369
We didn’t have a [content] accountability before I knew what was going on
0:06:21.980,0:06:24.770
and now I do now I can sit here and
0:06:25.380,0:06:28.070
clearly with the right words the right terms and
0:06:28.680,0:06:30.420
understanding in my own head
0:06:30.420,0:06:32.420
see
0:06:33.540,0:06:35.540
That I spoke victim
0:06:40.530,0:06:46.280
You wanted to be on camera, okay? Well, that’s all I got I just wanted to tell you that
0:06:47.850,0:06:50.960
We do sound like victims sometimes
0:06:52.470,0:06:54.470
But there’s a difference
0:06:54.510,0:06:59.029
accountability and being a hero good human person so
0:06:59.820,0:07:06.200
This is tracy, and that’s all I got please subscribe to my channel. [I] remember it again, and I’m getting better
0:07:07.200,0:07:09.289
Alright. Thank you so much, and have a great day
