- Do you see friends or family as extensions of yourself, representing your life?
- Do you often feel others aren’t worthy of associating with you?
- Do you find it difficult to apologize or tend to blame others during conflicts?
- Do you struggle to understand others’ perspectives or how they might feel?
Answering “yes” to any of these may indicate some narcissistic tendencies, but only a professional can provide an accurate diagnosis.
If you’re genuinely concerned about being a narcissist, chances are, you’re not. There’s often a significant overlap between people with high empathy and those who worry about being narcissistic. Narcissists don’t typically question their own behavior; if confronted, they would likely blame you and dismiss your concerns.
I hope this article helps alleviate any fears you might have about narcissism and provides some clarity on the traits associated with it.
