GNU Free Documentation License Is Narcissistic Personality Disorder a problem? Q. I'm pretty sure I have Narcissistic Personality Disorder, I've been all but professionally diagnosed and was wondering if I'm going to encounter problems in life because of it; I don't see it obstructing me in any way but would like to know if anybody has encountered any issues with the disorder. If it bears any relevance I'm 16. Asked by Xais - Sun Mar 15 20:30:27 2009 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments A. Most answer'rs here are misinterpreting. NPD is a serious impediment to intimacy and committed, loving relationships. Many do not surmount this disorder until in their early 40's. It requires a lot of therapy, trial and error before folks with NPD learn from their mistakes over the course of their lives. Hallmarks of this disorder are; blaming others for your mistakes, feelings of entitlement and 'specialness', manipulation of others, lack of meaningful friendships, and a generalized sense of dissatisfaction with life. Sorry to say: I wouldn't wish this disorder on my worst enemy :( Good luck to you, as you attempt to tackle it. Answered by Jimbo - Sun Mar 15 20:52:11 2009 Is it hard to diagnose narcissistic personality disorder? Q. Background story: I just looked up narcissistic personality disorder and my boyfriend fits almost perfectly in this category (he fits 6 criteria to a tee). We've been together for over 3 years and live together. He has other great qualities so I've been blind to his faults. Recently, I had to go to the ER (I slipped and fractured my ankle). When he came the ER, he did not show any empathy toward me. Instead, he started to talk about how my injury and pain was "nothing" compared to what he had to go through 2 year ago (he had appendicitis and had to get surgery). I just looked at him in disbelief. Why the heck was he talking about himself? I needed emotional support but he wasn't there for me. My mom was in the room with me so I didn't want… [cont.] Asked by rockin - Sat Sep 1 18:51:28 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I would say that I think this disorder IS hard to diagnose. Most people are narcissistic to an extent, which is normal. It's when it becomes extreme (and interferes with the person's ability to adapt and function well in everyday life), and has been present since childhood onward, that it points toward a disorder. Has your boyfriend been this way his whole life? Or have these traits appeared around the time of the development of his depression and M.S.? There are a lot of factors to consider here. Probably only a psychologist could really diagnose this disorder accurately. The problems you've described him having (depression, M.S.) can certainly cause a person who has them to seem almost entirely self-focused. Depression especially… [cont.] Answered by TERA - Sat Sep 1 20:08:59 2007 I believe I have someone in my life with Narcissistic Personality Disorder. What would you do?
Q. I have researched the disorder, so I know what the traits and consequences are. What I don't know is how to deal with this person on a long term basis, as I will be linked to them through another for a long time. Asked by Mysti - Tue Oct 16 08:11:17 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. Everything revolves around this person. I would stay away as much as possible. I would not share personal information that could be used against me. I would be polite, but not open.
