In this week’s episode, I want to talk about what exactly a
narcissist is, and what tool is used to identify narcissistic
personality disorder. We tend to wrongly label narcissists as
those who take lots of selfies or those who are rude to us, and by
doing that, we are not helping the real victims of narcissistic
abuse.
What You Will Learn In This Episode:
•The difference between being a narcissist and being
obnoxious
•How being a victim of Narcissistic Personality Disorder
affected me
•Are narcissistic personalities born or created?
•The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) nine traits to
detect Narcissistic Personality Disorder
•The importance of educating the society regarding NPD and
helping its victims
If someone you know ticks the boxes of at least five of the
nine traits described by the DSM, the person has NPD. This
method might help you get some reassurance of what you are dealing
with and that it is not your fault.
