Narcissists thrive on others’ admiration and believe they’re superior. By giving them the silent treatment, you demonstrate self-respect and a refusal to tolerate their toxic behavior. This indicates that you’re no longer willing to compromise your well-being for their benefit. Silence shows that you prioritize yourself and are taking a stand, which is the ultimate form of self-care.
The silent treatment is a simple yet effective way to respond to narcissistic behavior. It allows you to maintain your dignity while stripping the narcissist of their power. Have you ever used the silent treatment on a narcissist?
