Dearest Omo Oodua Readers: Can someone Pls tell me if I have Narcissistic Personality Disorder?




I’m a 13 year old girl. My parents think i have Narcissistic Personality Disorder, so i read about it on Wikipedia, and it seems like i have 12 from the 14 symptoms, which are:

Reacting to criticism with anger, shame, or humiliation
Taking advantage of others to reach own goals
Exaggerating own importance, achievements, and talents
Imagining unrealistic fantasies of success, beauty, power, intelligence, or romance
Requiring constant attention and positive reinforcement from others
Becoming jealous easily

Lacking empathy and disregarding the feelings of others
Pursuing mainly selfish goals
Becoming easily hurt and rejected
Setting goals that are unrealistic
Wanting “the best” of everything
Appearing unemotional

I only typed the symptoms i have, above.
Do i have this disorder?

reply by ADMIN:

You probably do.

I’m pretty sure I have it (or at least I’m a really big narcissist) and it’s no fun. I constantly both feel superior and inadequate because I’m not achieving “what I know I’m capable of”. Blegh, it’s just not fun and I wish I wasn’t a narcissist.

Plus people look and think “um yeah you just love yourself” when in reality that’s not true. :|
