Meaning someone suffering from narcissistic personality disorder. Do such people have any chance at redemption or are they doomed to self-destruct?

Yes. One of my sister. Never admit own fault and will always argue with anyone thinking she is always right.

Older sister?

Much younger sister. She is 25. Sometimes when we're arguing she would ran amok, screaming and destroying furniture near her to justifying her righteousness. She even smash my phone and tilt down our mom's closet once.

When she finally realize she is wrong though, she would keep quiet if not she would look up our past mistakes and makes it as an issue again. She never apologizes one. She is salah, but us other siblings are the ones have to apologize.

And any personal issues among siblings and family she will direct to family's group Whatsapp, not through personal Whatsapp.

Her attitude is just like that single old aunty manager / boss at office. Nightmare to everyone.

She is not mentally ill. Just pure narcissist.

Btw as a person she is actually ok, caring and friendly. Just don't make any issue with her, even small ones.

She is insecure, lack of confidence, low performer in school, pretty and chssed by many boys?

You guys should read this forum: https://www.reddit.com/r/raisedbynarcissists/

Then only you will realise the real impact they have on other people

bumped into one on LYN the other day. kept thinking that everything is about him only wan, and kept going off topic to talk about himself while at the same time demanding to stay on topic

She is high perfomer, pretty, have boyfriend and make much more money than me despite im 11 years older than her.

But is probably insecure and lacking confidence because she is highly introvert and not many friends.

This is an example of a narcissist.

1. They always talk about themselves.
2. They always talk about how great they are.
3. They will appear to be savior to any situation
4. They will give bombastic claims to make them feel so important and meaningful to the world.

Some are insecure but some are too pampered by their parents. Will they self destruct? Not in Malaysia, it sells actually. They'll never admit they're wrong and always have that confidence.

She must have lost something valuable when she was younger. Any of her bfs got stolen by other girls especially some girl she knows?

My boss. Either she the only one give the right answer or if she is wrong, no one is right.

Nah I don't think so.

She is like that since since kicik.

Hope her bf is strong enough

Wow, if this happened to me I would just cut ties with her...

But some can change themselves quite drastically too. I know of one in real life who literally did a 180 degree turn after getting married.

And become normal like you and me?

Yup i had one in my house. Gonna cut it loose soon.

Yup knew one from my post grad days, the I'm right you're wrong fella. He makes a show about listening to opinions which he actually doesn't hear then goes on wrong rambling speeches about his opinions and why they're right. Does it so often he actually misses a majority of discussions because he literally can't hear. Volunteers to be our de facto leader or spokesperson even when nothing calls for it.

And he was kiasu on top of being a narcissist. Ughhh even more off-putting seeing him act like a cunt for a point here or a point there during exams. I got so irritated by him during our last group assignment I just told him point blank, if this was work related, I would have given you multiple f bombs because of your behaviour....or worse so stfu and be a team member.

He works in an MNC and is quite high up there, I shudder to imagine if he's that much of a dick among peers, how big of a dick he is with subordinates. So much so i have warned one person thinking of joining his org in his dept (i messaged him to confirm)



In this case his marriage didn't last the duration of the course, got married a year or two before the course, divorced halfway thru. Wanted to sympathise but he made a speech, (no one asked for BTW) how it's for the best and beneficial for him (and also her but mainly him) that I was like fuck this idiot.

even more drastic I would say. Originally he was staying in a really nice and huge condo unit in one of those expensive areas. pretty much the show off type, etc. Apparently he then met somebody who had him questioning himself about what's the entire purpose of his lavish lifestyle and his need to show off, and his need to become the center of attention. Sold off that condo, moved into a far smaller place with a far simpler lifestyle after that.
