The Silent Manipulators: 6 Warning Signs of Covert Narcissists

We are not here to shame or disciminate against covert narcissists as we are a channel to promote mental wellness awareness, and self education. However, if you’re wondering if the person you are talking to might be secretly a narcissist, then this video may help. Recognizing toxic behaviours or signs that your close ones might be a narcissist could help us in terms of bringing awareness to the relationship so that a better course of action can be decided.

Also, we started our story content as promised. We are working hard to improve them. Our belief is that stories can engage and be more insightful than our usual listicles. If you would like to take a look, we have our first episode here: https://youtu.be/oJJbBMrAOqM

The support are much appreciated especially in our early stage of working on these stories.
