Narcissistic Personality Disorder

Narcissistic Personality Disorder belongs to the same cluster of conditions as the Antisocial Personality Disorder. Symptoms generally begin during early adult years and persist indefinitely. The lifetime prevalence may be as high as 1-5% with men more often affected than women. Genetic predisposition, early childhood upbringing and environment predispose to Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
Among the most common manifestations of Narcissistic Personality Disorder are failure to conform to social norms, deceitfulness, repeated lying, aggressiveness, irritability and use of aliases. Other frequent symptoms include lack of remorse, rationalizing behavior, irresponsibility, failure to honor financial obligations and reckless disregard for the safety of oneself and others.
These individuals exhibit a grandiose sense of self-importance, exaggerate their talents, believe they have unique power, beauty or intelligence and lack empathy for others. They feel entitled, demand automatic compliance with their wishes and fail to establish long term, stable intimate relationships.
They belittle others, feel easily slighted, react with rage when contradicted, never accept blame and disregard the wishes of others. Surprisingly some have a frail ego, are distressed by criticism and may become socially withdrawn during difficult times.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder frequently occurs in combination with other psychiatric conditions. Among the frequent comorbid diseases are depression, anxiety, mania, antisocial personality disorder, transient psychosis and impulse control disorder.
Treatment of Narcissistic Personality Disorder remains inadequate.

[@Nancy-yw1rr]

My ex has NPD, but I believe he also has ASPD. He displays every behavior you mentioned in your description of malignant narcissism and has for many years.

[@StevieCooper]

Very interesting. Will make that book my next read. Seems there is a new revised book out also. Love this channel.

[@Nancy-yw1rr]

The comments that criticize and accuse of politicization in this video are not considering the reality that narcissists are drawn to positions of power over others. Politics and law enforcement are two very obvious "draws" for narcissists.

[@pauladuncanadams1750]

Thank you for telling the truth about 45.

[@coreyanderson1457]

Good overview imo. Thanks.

[@PHSGirl1989]

Thank you. This is very informative.

[@wellnowdoctor5976]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@SteveMack]

Sadly, I KNEW a guy who has to be THE KING of that disorder; I didn't think it was possible, but he wrote the book so to speak on the craft!

[@aapex1]

@Wayne M It is a "spectrum" and we're all on it to varying degrees.

[@aapex1]

Hitlery being at the extreme end.

[@TheRis81]

I love how this guy can talk without sucking saliva every time he reaches the end of a sentence 👏

[@itsm3th3b33]

12:30 LOL Could he be more passive aggressive? LOL

[@RachMcGil]

wellnowdoctor Thank You.

[@bonnielee7134]

Dr. Landow, can bi-polar 2 be successfully treated? I feel like I'm medicine resistant. Is it me or is it that the disorder is tough to treat? Thanks. And what medicines are typically the best for it? Like specific names. Thanks!

[@danmcdaid]

​@@bonnielee7134try a gluten and dairy free diet, your problems MAY (I must stress that) be an inflammatory issue.

[@chefandy-f5z]

I haven't met a healthcare professional i thought highly enough to be able to realisticly diagnose this. Does that mean somerhing. A lot of mental health care is a poor replacement for social ills.

[@aa03aa03]

Some narcissists are disliking this video, so far 11

[@nicholecornes1915]

You know alot

[@JohnDoe-lx5rm]

You know what...Im not even gona watch this video, Im top good for it and its beneath me😤🤤😆

[@cynthia-jo1zz]

Comes from insecurities y'all....they feel like a nothing..that pain gives them tremendous trauma that the only reward is to make people feel that way,or atleast trick people into being nothing..they forget the most important things they should be doing and only make their mission to damage people..sad really

[@wenus4391]

Camera lost it sharpness

[@dariusashouri2439]

yea so so so sad b.c this is not a movie to do it again easily but its not for whole video

[@Novapsihoanaliza]

Kohut must be turning in his grave right now! :(

[@JohnBedson]

Outstanding. Every voter in America should watch this video and understand that the treatment for Malignant Narcissistic Personality Disorder is to vote Democrat.

[@heathernikki5734]

How's that working out for you? They're ALL narcissists.

[@JohnBedson]

@@heathernikki5734 I agree. Almost all politicians are narcissists.

[@SeekTheLordJesusChrist7]

Haha, the party that shrieks when you misgender/use the wrong pronouns? I’d rather vote for a thick skinned narcissist than thin skinned I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@FourthWayRanch]

I'm not into partisanism but I wouldn't expect a normal rational decision from leaders going on 80 years old either. I've been the caregive for my mom since she turned 80 and trust me, they shouldn't have jobs leading the country.

[@ivosoares9459]

Wtf lol

[@Unknown-hu4gf]

To have become a Internal Medicine Doctor you've had to most likely suffer from narcissism to some degree.

[@itsm3th3b33]

oh boy, this channel used to be all about scientific evidence.. Right or wrong, it's still a predominantly scientific basis. This video today turned the corner. It's gone political . LOL

[@FourthWayRanch]

and to be fair, the mental and psychiatric deficiencies of leaders in their 80s should have been covered as well.

[@ukidding]

the current u.s.a president.

[@otispage5746]

Whoa. You had to join ESPN and CNBC. Taking your video into politics. Lost my respect Soros.
