True. I’ve noticed as well the rise of the narcissistic personality disorder.
There was something I missed though that I suffered for. When I studied it, I thought a narcissist simply lacked empathy.
It was not until I stumbled over the covert narcissist that everything made sense. This type of narcissist doesn’t entirely lack empathy or sensitive. In fact they’re very sensitive. But it’s inward sensitivity. They’re sensitive to themselves, to being judged or attacked.
That’s why you can find they cry sometimes and act pitiful. But it’s not from hurting you. Its actually from them feeling attacked, and sensitive to their own ego.
The moment I saw this, I was like, hallelujah! Thank goodness.
Its terrible my friend. Anyway I look forward to gli by through your thought on this issue if you do write on it someday.
Stay safe Orla!
