PD Symbol Masterpost

I saw @radiomogai get this ask. While it definitely covered a bunch of the symbols my little monkey brain thought it'd be cool to scower tumblr for as many symbols as I can find. If you have any symbols I should add, don't be shy to send a dm or reply :)

Circle cross symbol?? idk how to label this. This post isn't the original posting of the symbol, as the Original creator is cited to be @puriette on tumblr, but I've been unable to find this post. If anyone can help me, I'd be greatful!

Comedy Masks by deactivated tumblr user idioticisland

Split comedy mask Unsure if this is the original or not, but this was the earliest usage I could find and its a rather commonly used symbol for hpd. This flag was by @masobutch but my attempts to rip it from the flag came out all blurry so I just drew it myself in ibis lol.

Comedy Masks v2. Same here on originality. Likely created using the one above, as they seem similar. This flag was made by @vampfeminine

Overall, comedy masks are used in general as a symbol for hpd, so there are likely a few other styles out there on flags, but these are the most common ones i've found.

⋆ ⸝⸝ narcissistic personality disorder flag.

a flag bringing acceptance to people with narcissistic personality disorder. pink is the color of self-love, orange as pride, yellow as covetousness and hope.

i have decided on the yin-yang symbol because of this blog post. i don’t particularly like the phrasing about people with npd on that post, so minor warning, but i do like how it phrases the yin and yang of narcissism.

this flag is for people with NPD only. i may later on make a flag for anyone to use, showing a safe space for pwnpd or that they love someone with npd.

❝ The Yang is that which is manifest; it is what we see on the surface, the Yin force, meanwhile, is its reciprocal- that which lies concealed beneath the surface, the latent force. ❞

[ ID : two nearly identical flags, with seven stripes each, mirrored in the middle. the first flag’s colors, from top to middle, are magenta, salmon-pink, yellow, then light yellow, and the colors are mirrored from the middle down. the second flag has the same colors, and has a yin-yang looking symbol in the center, with two faces facing opposite directions. ]

i have decided to rework the narcissistic personality disorder flag (with help from a friend who also has npd) because i found the “npd awareness” flag with the daffodil/narcissus flower to be insulting. the name is bringing “awareness” to NPD, and does not de-stigmatize the disorder - in fact, may make stigmatization worse. the symbolism is centralized around people with npd being inherently abusive, as it shows that people with npd “are capable of change and recovery” and implies that they need to change. i don’t fuck with that, as someone with npd, and neither do many friends of mine.
