#5: Malignant Narcissism Part 1: Understanding the Darker Side of Narcissistic Personality

from The Heart of Psychology · host Evie B.

In this episode, I dive into malignant narcissism, what it is, how it differs from overt and covert narcissism, and why it’s often misunderstood. We explore where it falls on the narcissistic spectrum, how it overlaps with antisocial traits, and why it’s more about control and aggression than relational dynamics. Whether you’re trying to make sense of someone in your life or just curious about personality patterns, this episode will help you recognize the signs and understand the dynamics in a clear, approachable way.- Evie 🌸⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok
