To Narc Or Not To Narc

In the series finale we discuss Narcissism. The DSM version 5 lists Narcissism as a cluster B personality disorder (PD). A PD is an enduring and inflexible pattern of long duration, leading to significant distress or impairment and is not due to use of substances or another medical condition. On paper this is a cold and clinical view of the disorder but for those living with a 'narc', it has a completely devastating impact on their life both physically and mentally. This episode sees C and J take a very deep dive into the creation of a narcist, their patterns of behaviour, warning signs and finishes the episode with practical guidance and most importantly the 'light at the end of the tunnel' for victims of narcissistic abuse.   Source: https://doctor-ramani.com/  Resources: https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/getting-help-for-domestic-violence/  Resources: https://www.nationaldahelpline.org.uk/  Resources: https://www.samaritans.org/  Resources: https://www.healthline.com/health/mental-health/9-tips-for-narcissistic-abuse-recovery#emotions  Resources: https://www.healthline.com/health/mental-health/emotional-manipulation#martyr  Resources: https://www.choosingtherapy.com/darvo/  Contact us: [email protected] Give us your feedback or experiences on this subject matter, we'd love to hear from you.
