What’s behind manipulation?
The overriding element in chronic psychological manipulation is always an issue of power and control.
Manipulators are driven by a need for power and control over every situation. In some cases, this can arise from past trauma, in an attempt to predict what is coming their way and make themselves feel safer in the moment. In more devious circumstances, it is a method of controlling others for outcomes like personal leverage, a need to feel better than everyone else, a bid for attention, or a desire to have an advantage.
Manipulators who crave power and advantage over others will often resort to scheming to attain what they want. They use emotions to domineer others and for attention-seeking purposes, particularly when they feel situations are outside of their sphere of influence. In fact, many chronic manipulators will avoid situations they don’t feel they have control over because they prefer predictable outcomes that line up with their own wants.
Chronic manipulators may have started using these tactics as survival methods, a form of self-preservation, or even in response to feelings of personal inadequacy. However, when these actions spiral to the point of disrupting otherwise healthy relationships, they become damaging.
These are the situations that create unhealthy and dangerous interpersonal environments—and over time, these behaviors can become pathological. Understanding what drives manipulators to treat others in such unhealthy ways is vital to recognizing it and taking the necessary steps to stop it. Only when you understand a behavior can you truly intervene to try to meet that need in a healthier way.

Carl Jung and the Shadow (Jack E. Othon)
(...) Have you ever said or done something really shitty, mostly on an impulse, that you later regretted? After the damage was done and the other person involved was hurt, you couldn’t bury your shame fast enough. “Why did I say that?” you might have asked yourself in frustration. It’s that “Why?” question that indicates the presence of a blind
Mongolian Psychological Warfare (Psychological Warfare – Wikipedia)
The Khan also employed tactics that made his numbers seem greater than they actually were. During night operations he ordered each soldier to light three torches at dusk to give the illusion of an overwhelming army and deceive and intimidate enemy scouts. He also sometimes had objects tied to the tails of his horses, so that riding on open and dry fields raised a cloud of dust that gave the enemy the impression of great numbers. His soldiers used arrows specially notched to whistle as they flew through the air, creating a terrifying noise.
A later Mongolian chieftain, Tamerlane, built a pyramid of 90,000 human heads in front of the walls of Delhi, to convince them to surrender during his Indian campaign. Another tactic favoured by the Mongols was catapulting severed human heads over city walls to frighten the inhabitants and spread disease in the besieged city's closed confines.

Psychological Review'de yayımlanan bir makaleye göre "iyi hayat" mutlulukla değil psikolojik zenginlikle ilgili. Araştırmayı yapan uzmanlar bu zenginliğin; perspektif değiştiren, karmaşık, özgün deneyimlere sahip olmaktan geçtiğini söylüyorlar. Mutluluktan asıl farkı ise olumsuz deneyimleri de kapsaması.
