Dear narcissist in need of supply,

You are the best.

Yes, you specifically, I'm looking at YOU.

You're not a monster, you're not evil like society makes you and your disorder out to be.

You are perfect, you don't need to change for anyone and you're important. Everyone wants to be your friend, everyone wants to be like you because you're so fucking amazing.

You deserve the spotlight.

You know what? I don't really have much empathy for people. I can pass by a homeless person on the side of the road struggling to scrape cans together and not give a shit what happens to them personally. However, I do feel anger, anger that there is such a blatant and glaring problem in society that is completely fixable, and no one is fixing it. It doesn't make sense to me. There's more than enough resources to give everyone a house and food. All it takes is money. Money that certain people most definitely have.

See, from my perspective, I don't like that there are homeless people on the street generating trash, standing around covered in filth, and generally making cities unpleasant to be in either. I'm also not stupid. While I might not care if they live or die, I can easily recognize that if we just gave them places to live and resources to use, then the streets would be easy to clean up and maintain. Then, everywhere you go could look clean, neat, modern, and stylish.

So if people have money to fix it, THEN JUST FIX IT! You don't want to see these people, these people don't even want to be there, so why not? You don't even need to care about anyone to figure this out. It doesn't make any fucking sense and THAT'S why I get so pissed off.

Guilt / Shame / Remorse / Regret

What’s the difference?

(Chart made by me based on my own understandings, do not take this as fact)

Healthy neurotypicals usually feel guilt and remorse

Covert Vulnerable NPDers usually feel shame and sometimes regret, but not remorse and guilt

Some NPDers with lower levels of insecurity may feel guilt without shame

PwASPD often lack remorse or shame but may or may not experience regret

What do I feel?

As a person with Covert Vulnerable NPD, I experience shame, but not guilt, remorse, or regret. I do sometimes feel short-term regret towards an action I may have just committed, but I do not feel regret towards past actions. I am always more concerned with how I look than what I did

[internetdwellingvampire]

i hate how i can’t articulate how i feel or i risk sounding insufferably edgy.

This is a comic about my experience with covert NPD, ableism will not be accepted

This is word for word something that one of my close friends said to help me with my tendencies to never express any of the intense negativity I feel and honestly this really helped me understand that I’m not wrong for wanting to vent that anger

I know my experience is not universal but I felt the need to share this

[anatidephobia]

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i can’t change

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i automatically am a bad person

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD my partner should leave me

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i can’t be self aware

im DONE with hearing that because i have NPD i can’t be hurt by anything and anyone

im DONE with being treated like a subhuman and bad person just because i was diagnosed with NPD.

not every person with the same diagnosis IS the same.
