Book recomendation on narcissism

Morbidly A Beast:
Everyone wants to pathologize the bad guy and cant admit that there is just buttholes in the world.


This is true. Some people have mental health issues, but that doesn't make them a bad person. Some people are bad people that happen to have mental health issues. Those issues may or may not contribute to them being shitty people.

But I think most assholes are just assholes. No mental health issues involved.

Exactly. This isn’t to say narcissism doesn’t exist as a classification or anything just to say that just because someone is a *** or you don’t like someone doesn’t mean necessarily that they are a narcissist, it’s far far to common to hear that these days everyone is a narcissist, to me it’s a lot like people online who say they are autistic having never been diagnosed, just an excuse for their asocial behavior or whatever

Munchies:
Once again, no one is saying you suffer from narcissistic personality disorder. If anything, you are an insecure manchild trying to prove to the world you are smarter and wiser than you actually are.


No, not at all! Your second sentense couldnt be further from the truth actually! I know what i am and what my abilities and needs are and what they're not. And neither am i ashamend of, or insecure with, my weaknesses. I really dont care to prove my intelligence to people, except of course when *they* for whatever reason need me to demonstrate it (which is something i sometimes also need from other people too, in order to bond with them properly!)

Can we sometime have a conversation about all this? Please? 🤣

No. Years ago, I was happy to discuss such things with you. I was patient. I was kind. But my patience and kindness are not infinite. After many conversations with you where I've been insulted and disregarded, I have no desire to allow you to treat me like that ever again.

I dont care to pathologize anyone. I simply want people to learn what narcissism is, and what it is not, what are its specific qualifies, etc, and to be capable of figuring out the dangers that exist with it (for example, the worst case is narcissists in position of power). And i especially want the mods to be able to moderate these people properly.

HectorBalloon:
Do you mean antisocial (as opposed to asocial)?

I was diagnosed with autism and being super introverted in addition I don't socialise and am more or less asocial (meaning just not interested in socalising) as opposed to anti-social (activily bad behaviour etcetra).

But yeah generally I agree with everything else you say.


Autism gang!



The autism creature gives me such joy. Lookit! It's so ... creature!

So ... is this about the spat you had in chat earlier where you got ganged up on for being gross and got aggressive? Because that's what it's giving.

I get that but you also dont shy away from making all short of statements about me that are false, because theyre based on, either my past (and not present) behavior, or they are just false due to a lack of information.

I've been trying to give you all that information but you refuse again and again. Yet you continue judging me incorrlectly (Im not bothered with being judged, but when you do it incorectly and publicly, i will have an extremely hard time making friends, etc.)

Hun, there have been so many times that I did not say anything at all, and you managed to drive people away all on your own.
