Do narcissists only go to treatment when their families and partners force them to go? Diana Diamond thinks not. There are plenty of reasons to show up at therapy even if you don't know you have narcissistic pathology.
Narcissistic grandiosity is very brittle and breaks down easily, producing depressive reactions, anxiety, emptiness, hopelessness, despair and loneliness. The incapacity to love fully or to mourn losses is also a major symptom of narcissistic pathology.
We talked with Diana Diamond about the prevalence of narcissism in our society today, all the way from healthy traits to Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD).
