  • Narcissistic Personality Disorder has a lot of stigma around it, so giving the diagnosis can be a touchy process. Diana Diamond explains how she goes about introducing the personality disorder diagnosis to a patient.
    It turns out one of the reasons people don't want to hear they have NPD is because the term "narcissist" is used so often to describe Trump.
    We interviewed Diana Diamond about narcissism and its prevalence in our society today, all the way from healthy traits to Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD).
    -----------------
    Diana Diamond is an expert clinician who makes use of Transference-Focused Psychotherapy in her practice treating NPD and BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder).

    I so much want to hear about this overlap between NPD and BPD. This was a great flick but didn't cover that specific subject. By the way, Diana rules on NPD. It is just amazing to hear her.

    When a child grows without maths, they never understand what they don't know. We all understand desire and that creates the relationship. The 'love' presented by the narc is a construct of smiles, hugs, and the words to win. Once the challenge is over, they progressively drop their techniques and you are left with their lack of true love.

    I have BPD and I find it ironic how we are seen to be the ones with complete black and white thinking, yet neurotypicals think of us in black and white ways. We display the rougher symptoms of being clingy or having anger issues and then in the neurotypical's mind, we are "evil, abusive", but if we don't display our symptoms at all and act just like them, then we are "good, kind". Neurotypicals always talk about narcissists so badly but really it just seems like they're projecting.

      Bipolar people for example can also be assholes too but people are generally more accepting of them. I have seen more and more narcissists come around and be open that they are narcissists. There’s a guy on RUclips that has a channel who is narcissist and teaches people about narcissism. He knows it’s a flaw but he’s trying to do good with it. In a way it just another disability the way bipolar or schizophrenia is.

      People with schizophrenia aren't in control of themselves. They can't just stop having delusions or hearing voices.
      Narcs ARE in control of themselves. They hurt people on purpose to feel better about themselves. It's not the same thing, at all.

      The problem is vilification of people through a label. You obviously see yourself as good while doing the worst thing in the world: dehumanizing people you don't know based on a label. You have no clue what NPD is, could not make the difference with ASPD, you probably listened to alll the RUclips NPD abuse frauds. You swallowed propaganda. This is lying.
      This is the most dangerous behavior for mankind. It is what scapegoating is about. The same is worth for Muslims, Democrats /Republicans, Atheists/Christians; Jews.,......
      Why this comment since no narcissist complained? For yourself.
      I am sure you also talk kdown on other labels.

      Sugar Free yes I agree. My heart goes out to borderlines because they had a Narcissistic parent. And BPD is very treatable if the patient is self aware and motivated. For people with BPD, unlike narcissim, you can self reflect, you can heal and overcome this disorder.

      Perhaps I'll modify my comment:
      In the BPD's view - "I have a condition, pity me."
      In the NPD's view - "There's nothing wrong with me (but that BPD person there is completely out of control!). I should be the therapist, I'm way more intelligent!"

      There are many different answers based on individual clients. I had a client asked me at the end of the first session if I thought he had NPD. Personally, I don’t want to diagnose anyone after 60 minutes. Personality disorders are sometimes easy to spot but that doesn’t mean it’s always ethically responsible to share the diagnosis right away.
      Some people are relieved to have words for their experience, as mentioned in the video. Others feel it validates their distorted view of themselves, “see, something is inherently wrong with me, I knew it!”
      People have a right to know and it’s also true you have to weigh the risks and benefits. If it could harm the client then you should pause on sharing the diagnosis. Find out why it’s important for them to have a name. Ask them what they think their diagnosis is, how things would change for them if that were accurate, etc.
      Things aren’t always so black and white. Doctors and mental health professionals aren’t the same ( of course:)). Mental health professionals can have reasonable, justified, and ethical concerns that lead to withholding that - which can be discussed with the client.

That person is as manipulative as the narcissist, hence their question. Finally, a narcissist, in fact, any client with or without an NPD diagnosis, can and will leave therapy for any reason or no reason, regardless of if their 'reason' is legitimate or not. Manipulative people don't always mean NPD. It can look like Bipolar, Borderline, someone with substance abuse issues, schizoprhenia or schizotypal, even schizoaffective, and any other diagnoses.

It is quite an abundance of communities, on every big social media platforms, that focus especially on those themes you mentioned. If everybody faster in the process get the option to listen to the people doing research on the subject it will be easier to understand the issues and move on from the affect that is the entry point.
