    NARCISSISTS AMONG US

    BY JOE NAVARRO M.A.

    Narcissism is a term everyone has heard of but few people actually know what it really means. Most people have some awareness that it comes to us from Greek mythology (Narcissus loved himself so much that he abandoned all pursuits, including eating, in order to admire himself), but beyond that the meaning is vague. It is true Narcissism is associated with self-centeredness, haughtiness, and arrogance, but that is just a small part of it, for in fact Narcissists take a terrible toll on society.

    Narcissistic individuals stand out because they have inflexible personality traits that make them irritating at best and dangerous at worst. They believe themselves to be special, gifted, talented, superior, or deserving of special treatment, which compels them to treat others as inferior, or objects to be used. They often seek to control or rule others, or to be in positions of superiority. With a high sense of entitlement, the Narcissist often takes advantage of positions of trust (e.g., finance, religion, governance) for his own benefit. Lacking empathy for others (a common Narcissistic trait), they come across as cold, calloused, or insensitive. Combined, these traits make for uncaring individuals who are at the core unethical and who are only interested in themselves. That in a nutshell is a Narcissist – they aren’t just infuriatingly self-absorbed they are a dangerous.
