Re: Narcissism

[(Anonymous)]

OP, the fact that you're self aware that you have selfish traits is an indication that you're probably don't have NPD. In fact, lots of people overuse this diagnosis where it doesn't really apply.

That being said, people with actual NPD rarely get treatment, if at all. Narcissists at their core are sociopaths. The key differences however are that narcissists have more self control to cover their antisocial traits compared to the sociopath who has less limitations due to the desperate need to find extra stimulation. Like the sociopath they have no remorse for their actions; they do not experience guilt for hurting others, although they can fake that they do. They also have a grandiose sense of self like the sociopath in where they believe they are above the rules of society (think conartists and people who make a living doing harmful illegal activities). What makes them just as or even more dangerous than a sociopath is that a sociopath will most likely have a record of criminal activity by the age of 15. The narcissist however, will not, since they value their reputation more than anything. Narcissists however much like a sociopath have no limitations on what they would be willing to do (extortion, exploitation, rape, murder) as long as they have a guarantee that they could get away with it.

Given that most NPDs do not believe they have any problems, they are most likely unable to be self aware of having the disorder. If you know someone with real NPD, I'd suggest maintaining your distance from them. Real NPDs are highly manipulative, have no qualms with lying or slandering as long as it gets them what they want, and will walk all over you until you're emotionally drained while pretending to everyone around them that you're the one with the problem. They're toxic, and unless a group of people do an intervention, they'll never change.
