Causes of Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Among the potential causes of Narcissistic Personality Disorder are genetics, childhood experiences, environment, and/or brain chemistry, although the exact factors are not known. As with many other personality disorders, scientists agree that the development of mental health disorders is complex.
The most important thing to know is that if you exhibit any of the traits and symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, it is necessary to seek the help of a trained mental health expert. Diagnosis for Narcissistic Personality Disorder can be challenging, and that’s why it is crucial to work with a Licensed Clinical Psychologist at Blair Wellness Group. It must be noted, many people can be diagnosed with more than one personality disorder. A Licensed Clinical Psychologist can help the patient with unique and customized approaches and a specific plan of action that meets their individual needs.
Common traits for people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder include:
- Inflated self-importance (they often have the immense need to be the most important person in the lives of family members, friends, and people they know and feel compelled to habitually inflate their achievements)
- Power fantasies (is often preoccupied thinking of their own personal success, achievements, and accomplishments)
- Demand admiration (requires frequent adoration and affection from others)
- Takes advantage of others (seeks to use others for personal gain)
- Unempathetic (has difficulty identifying with the needs of others)
- Arrogance (experiences difficulty keeping pride, smugness, and vanity in check)
- Sense of entitlement (has unrealistic demands of other people, believing that he or she should receive favorable treatment)
