No, the world would be a much happier place if people thought they looked good wouldn't it? Inner beauty "Why can't people feel attractive? We are attracted to looks before we can see someone's inner beauty. Spent far too much of my life with body dysmorphia, I've got to a place in life where I think I'm ok. I'm personally a happier person for it, but that would now make me narcissistic? I think not. | |||

Is being up yourself a nice trait?"Not usually, no. There’s a difference between being up yourself and being confident in yourself. Similar to being arrogant and assertive I guess | |||

"Can you still be classed as a narcessist if you can’t spell it? Asking for a friend who happens to have a very beautiful penis."

"I read something really interesting the other day about alcoholism and how similar that was to having narcissistic traits. Opened my eyes quite a bit. " There's so many overlapping conditions people can confuse with NPD. BPD, ASD, ADHD, Depression, PTSD... Top of my head - there's more. PTSD when you are triggered: you are in a flight or fight response. Hyper-arousal state. The body is inherently self-absorbed in survival mode. You are outside the zone of emotional regulation. It's an involuntary, temporary mental state. To the onlooker you are behaving completely inappropriately to the situation. Internally you are re-experiencing a traumatic event. I know a lot about BPD too but that's a tough one to contrast with NPD in a few lines. | |||

"So you are not Narcissistic calling yourself "beautiful, sexy"? So denying any responsibility for their dysfunctional behaviour (being up yourself?) Isn't Narcissism?

I'm lost in translation "1. Nacisim is not all.emcompasing personality trait for most people. 2. Having nascistic traits is in all of us and is not always bad thing. 3. Depending on demographics and upbringing will influence your understanding of what is narscism. | |||
