  • Hey everybody! This week's video I'm going to talk to you a little bit about Narcissistic Personalty Disorder.

  • What is it, and what do we do?

  • So, like I said, today I want to talk with you about Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

  • Now, our community, so many of you have requested this, and so what that tells me is that

  • if you are worried that maybe you're the only person out there who's been diagnosed with it,

  • or it's so weird, I'm embarrassed.

  • Don't be. You're not alone.

  • This diagnosis exists for a reason. People struggle with this, right?

  • And so what I'm just going to tell you about today is

  • what are the characteristics of it, how do clinicians look at clients and try to figure out

  • what they may be struggling with?

  • And the main point of this being that if you think that you're struggling with this,

  • this video is in no way to help you diagnose yourself,

  • but it means that maybe you should seek out a therapist.

  • Because that would be my number one recommendation for those of you who are struggling with this

  • or have this diagnosis.

  • Is seek help. See a psychiatrist, see a therapist, get some support because like everything that I talk about,

  • we can work through it, right?

  • We can make it more manageable so that we don't feel so hindered by our diagnosis.

  • Okay? So. Someone with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, what does it look like?

  • Now, the number one thing that as a therapist I'd be like, "Oh, that's a little red flag, maybe this is something

  • that they struggle with."

  • Is someone who has a really inflated sense of self.

  • They'll feel really good about who they are.

  • I call it kind of puffer chesting.

  • We're so proud, we're so excited, and we think that everything we do is like, better than sliced bread.

  • We oftentimes think that everything we're doing is great.

  • And we also tend to lack empathy for other people because we see those people as almost competitors.

  • And we're trying to get better, and we're the best, we're number one, right?

  • And we will sometimes even put people down or hurt others, like, climb over people at work to get that

  • job that we think we deserve.

  • So, it can be difficult sometimes for people we're in relationships with because we have to be the best.

  • And we believe we're the best and we can be really stubborn about it too.

  • And I can even admit, I am very stubborn. So, I totally understand.

  • But this is something that will just permeate a lot of our life and so it can be really difficult.

  • And in school and in work it usually comes out first because those are places of competition.

  • And since we have this belief that, you know, that we're very unique and that nobody else can actually

  • understand our experience, that we are the best in everything,

  • it can be really difficult at work and in school because it's supposed to be a place of, not equality, but

  • working together, right? As a team.

  • I have my notes down here, I don't want to forget anything else.

  • Also, we crave a lot of admiration from others and a lot of compliments

  • and we need constant support, I guess.

  • I always call it like, you need a lot of pats on the back, because even though we're really puffer chesting,

  • oftentimes if we're criticized even once, we feel horribly wounded. And it can be,

  • We will actually really overreact to any kind of criticism, even if it's constructive.

  • We can feel like it's a huge put down. It's almost like somebody took a pin to our balloon.

  • We feel horrible.

  • So, if these are any of the symptoms that you think that you, yourself are struggling with make sure you reach out

  • and get help, because I'm here to help give you information that helps you better find the treatment that you need,

  • and that you deserve.

  • Because we all deserve to feel better, and we all deserve to work through things, right?

  • And have better management of any of the symptoms that we're having.

  • And know that you're not alone, like I said. There were so many requests for this.

  • So if you like this video, give it a thumbs up.

  • And always leave your comments below.

  • And make sure you add me on Google+, into your circles, so that when you leave your comments

  • I can comment back and we can have a conversation.

  • So I hope you found this helpful, and I hope you'll keep working with me, putting one foot in front of the other

  • towards a healthy mind and a healthy body.
