My friend, you just described the handbook of Narcissism 101!

Grant it, I do write about not caring what people think. And you touched on it in the right manner.

Caring what people think in a sense is healthy. But you are right. Those that abuse will say it to minimize or justify their shitty behavior.

I say “don’t care what people think” because I’m ashamed of my job and many insecurities in my life not because I treat people like shit and want a free pass for it.

Nice article brother. You just gave me a new article topic.

The toxic self help community is frightening. They are vulnerable looking for guidance then find the people like you described above.

Kudos
