A person with narcissistic personality disorder may:Skalioppe said:This sounds like Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), it's on the PD spectrum. Google it and tell me if she fits the traits....
React to criticism with rage, shame, or humiliation Yes, heavily.
Take advantage of other people to achieve his or her own goals Seen it, she never admitted.
Have excessive feelings of self-importance Really a lot. Points about her greatness
Exaggerate achievements and talents This especially. She didn't graduate from collage, and she thinks she's at the level of professors on faculties. I on the other hand was said in school I got level of knowledge 4 years ahead in that subject. But I never pointed it out except to her as a contra argument. Which she used as ' You're putting me down.'
Be preoccupied with fantasies of success, power, beauty, intelligence, or ideal love Yes. She points all the time how she's so fit, sexy, hot, and how every single person points her eyes at you, even girls.
Have unreasonable expectations of favorable treatment
You're not a gentleman, you ,must talk to me !
Need constant attention and admiration Never shown this thing.
Disregard the feelings of others, and have little ability to feel empathy
She always puts her problems, and everything that is wrong, she either calls ' sensitive, paranoid, obsessed.'
Have obsessive self-interest Yes. When she needs to do something. She won't postpone it. When I need... I 'must' do it. Though I have never listened to any of her orders. I'd cool them off.
Pursue mainly selfish goals Her goal in life so to be famous model and be respect for that... For being a doll.
Now I thought I had narcisstic disorder. So I will answer as objective as I can. Many people tell me I am arrogant, I don't show feelings ( I have deeply inside of me, I just feel people look at you as a weaker man when you show them. I got empathy that when I see violence it really hits me hard with sadness.), and 'think I know everything' . Point is I am trying to be well versed in aspects of life that are usable. So when I break someones myth and continue to show them arguments, they defend like that.
Here it comes.
React to criticism with rage, shame, or humiliation
I hate it when people show disrespect as in humiliation or trying to shame someone for no reason. I may react from really agressive verbal talk, to cold look. When somebody nicely tells me about my bad things I don't take it by heart. I try to simply to understand his point and fix myself, if I think it's needed.
Take advantage of other people to achieve his or her own goals
I always try to payback everyone who helped me. I only take advantage of people who were evil to me. Like she did.
Have excessive feelings of self-importance
I don't know if it's excessive. But as a musician, in todays music world, which is not for entertainment, but also mass control, I feel that every musician is important if he becomes popular, or thinks he has what it's needed to get on top. I for one try to make world a better place with lyrics in my music, would probably sacrifice my life if it would help billions of people. Christ did it. No use. Try again different way.
Exaggerate achievements and talents
Now, this is where I thought I may be sometimes over valuing myself.
For example on contest I was said to be the guitar player of it. I couldn't help it but tell everyone what happened. And when my girlfriend would point out how she is so beatiful in whole town i'd say " well, you got lucky, somebody here got voted for best lead guitar player. "
I believe I got really great talent in fast learning and developing. Reason.
My score on the end of school year was 4/5
I literally would study 30 minutes before the test would start. Around 20-30 full pages. I may be arrogant , but it happens.
Be preoccupied with fantasies of success, power, beauty, intelligence, or ideal love
Not really. I sometimes just want to live normal life. But most of time I want to do something in this world that will change it for good, masivelly, invent something new, which will people respect and use my figure as further Inspiration.
Have unreasonable expectations of favorable treatment
This not. I feel bad when somebody does something without me asking.
I hate it when someone buys me random things without me asking .Which I never do, unless I think i need it.
Need constant attention and admiration
Okay. I never really had attention and admiration. So I developed as one who hungers it from time to time. I like being in the center of attention, not for over than 2 hours. Band time playing. When in groups, I try to maintain some high status. I don't need to be the leader of the pack. But I don't want to be perceived as some sore loser sitting on the couch, so I take some action to be seen.
On the other hand. I had girlfriend who would constantly praise me and obsessivly text me 15 times a day. Telling me how I am cool, great, sexy.
You got it. She's an ex. I started feeling overrated.
Disregard the feelings of others, and have little ability to feel empathy
Not. I got really great empathy for others and understand how many people feel and want.
Have obsessive self-interest
Play guitar like a maniac. Reason ?
I was suicidal after my dad wanted to kill me. I picked old rusty guitar and started playing it. Soon it became routine and a place where I could use both hemispheres of my brain and channel my emotions. Using words simply doesn't cut it for me.
Pursue mainly selfish goals
I want to become famous person who changed the world to be a better place.
Famous because I could be later as inspiration used.
I share with people many things. Only if I think they deserve it. I don't buy random people drinks, give them things. Which my mother thinks is selfish.
Okay there you go, if you got questions ask !
