Ya know how we have symbols for autism and ADHD (infinity symbol and butterfly) I haven't seen one for NPD and I think it should be daffodils (you probably know why)

Y'all I'm an empath here's how to trigger a narcissist in 3 easy steps:
1st. Find a narcissist
2. Shower them with love and affection. Narcissists hate that and it triggers them really badly.
3. Reflect on why you wanted to purposely trigger a mentality ill person, likely someone who's been abused in childhood. Think, why is this specific narcissist the villain in your story?

Cluster b culture is “I need something very badly, but I don’t know what. I can’t think of anything that would satisfy me.” like pacing back and forth between the fridge and the pantry, but never being interested in anything. Just stuck in this mind-numbing cycle of closing and re-opening doors, as if doing that enough times will somehow change what you see. It’s that exact feeling, but with life in general.

Does "narcissist abuse" exist?
Well, I'll try to think of this as unbiased as possible.
Narcissist and Abuser are not synonymous. Many narcissists make an effort to not harm others and have never been or are currently not abusers.
NPD is a disorder with different presentations and sufferers have differents traits and severities: some narcissists are aggressive and external; some are more internal; some may be concerned with being a good person; some may overcompensate for their narcissism; some may take out the issues of their disorder on others; some may have trouble self-reflecting and hurt others; some may never hurt anyone; some may know how to deal with their traits while others may not.
NPD is a disorder that impacts both the sufferer and the people around them. It is important to talk about the sufferer, but also to acknowledge that it affects others as well. Especially if someone is untreated and unaware of their disorder.
It can cause someone to hurt others if it is left unchecked, if they were taught to hurt others, if they are unaware of their behavior, if they lack self-control, or if they simply have no desire to be a good person.
An abuser with NPD's reasons and ways of abusing someone may be different, just as an abuser with autism's would...and an abuser with depression, an abuser with bipolar, an abuser with schizophrenia, or an abuser who is not mentally ill at all.
I have heard a story about a woman with schizophrenia who was convinced her children were possessed by the devil and tried to attack them. Does this mean everyone with schizophrenia is dangerous? No. Absolutely not. Did her disorder affect the way she treated others in a negative way? Yes, because it presented in this way, and she was completely unaware and untreated. She is a victim in the fact she was dealing with these delusions and this fear, just as her children were victims for having to deal with the way she acted. Again: someone being schizophrenic does not mean they will hurt you. If someone who is schizophrenic tries to hurt you, that isn't representative of everyone with schizophrenia. (Many people with schizophrenia do not try to harm people at all.)
I also heard about the difficulties of a child living with bipolar mother who treated her disorder with alcohol, causing her to accidentally harm her child in many ways. Obviously, her disorder and addiction are relevant in talking about the experience, but we all know people with bipolar disorder are not abusers just because they are bipolar; and addicts are not abusers just because they are addicts.
Abuse can be done on accident, especially if someone was raised around it or thinking it was okay, or if they have a disorder affecting how they see things. In some cases, explaining and trying to help people realize their behavior can work. In others, it won't; some people don't want to listen or get better. If thats the case, thats on them. But no matter what, abuse is a choice. It can be done without awareness; but it is still a choice.
Anyone can be an abuser, and the equation of one disorder with abuse is not only dehumanizing to the people with this disorder, but can actually hurt victims of abusers who aren't narcissists, or victims who are narcissists.
My point is that it can be relevant to say your abuser had NPD. But someone being an abuser doesn't mean they are a narcissist, and the NPD isn't what needs highlighted...its the abuse. Yes, you can say your abuser had NPD, I don't think it's wrong to make a space to discuss this with people who had a similar experience either.
Many people in my family are narcissists/narcissistic, and quite a few of them hurt people or have been abusive. So I won't deny that a lot of narcissists (especially ones who externalize their narcissism and who are completely untreated, also when they refuse to admit they have a problem) treat others badly. I also know some of them don't actually have bad intentions and that others do have (in a way) bad intentions. Some were raised to think it was okay. I also know of narcissists who internalize it, who are aware of their narcissism, who do their best to not hurt others, who are victims themselves.
NPD should be talked about from the perspective of people with NPD, but this doesn't mean people who dealt with abusive people with NPD can't talk about it. As I said, I had no problem with an article about an abusive mother who had bipolar disorder; it was relevant.
A lot of "narcissistic abuse" described is just abuse. A list of abusive behaviors doesn't need to say narcissist at the top. It is completely irrelevant. Say it if it is relevant.
---
TLDR; Your abuser being a narcissist can be relevant, and you can talk about it, narcissists can be abusers and their disorder can play a part in it. But not all narcissists are abusers, and "narcissist" is equated with abuser. This is why people do not like the term "narcissistic abuse." It, in a way, equates narcissism with abuse. "Narcissistic abuse" is as real as "autistic abuse" or "bipolar abuse."
Don't use narcissist as a word for abuser. Say it if it's relevant.
I have no problem with a subreddit, therapy group, or community for people who dealt with abusive narcissists, but I want people to not perpetuate a stigma.
I sympathize with those who were abused, but narcissism isn't abuse; abuse is abuse. Narcissism can play a part, but that is not what the abuse is, and that is not THE cause of the abuse.
Abuse is abuse, and anyone can abuse.

I've got say, for how much "empaths" claim to care about people, they don't really have much empathy for people with childhood trauma

Alastor from Hazbin Hotel has NPD! No one did this with Alastor yet, so I decided to do it before anyone else does!
Tumblr media
Alastor has narcissistic personality disorder.
1. Grandiose sense of self-importance. He literally says something along the lines of “I’ve been gone for quite some time! I’m sure you’ve all been wondering!” He views himself as VERY important. He really can't stand being ignored, or when people don't recognize him. He also projects this dislike onto others... Like how he pretends not to know Sir Pentious, or even Lucifer himself... When people act like he doesn't matter it infuriates him.
2. Preoccupation with fantasies of success, power, beauty, or perfect love. Why else would he become an overlord in the first place? The reason he does not fantasize about power is because he already has it.
3. He has a belief that he is "special" and can only be understood by other special people. He is only friends with two people, one being an overlord (Rosie). She is also a special person since she is an overlord.
4. A need for excessive admiration. Obviously. Like come on. Is wanting to be all powerful and feared by literally BROADCASTING SCREAMS not convincing enough? That is his supply. Power.
5. A sense of entitlement, which may include an unreasonable expectation to be treated favorably or for others to comply with their demands and expectations. I know this because if ANYONE disrespects him then they’re featured in the next broadcast. Plus, you know his threat to Husk when he disrespected.
6. Behavior that is exploitative and takes advantage of others to achieve their own ends. Come on. It is so fucking obvious. He is OBVIOUSLY taking advantage of Charlie and the hotel for his own personal gain. He wants to get out of his deal to gain freedom. That is self-sufficient.
7. A lack of empathy or an unwillingness to identify with the needs of others. Do I even need to explain?
8. A tendency to be envious of others or a belief that others are envious of them. I’d like to think that he’s maybe jealous of Lucifer’s status or something, but it is obvious he believes others are jealous of him *cough* he believes Vox is jealous of him *cough*
9. Arrogance, haughty behaviors, and attitudes. ANOTHER obvious one that does not need an explanation.
I also headcanon him to have ASPD, but I wanted to rant about him having NPD

The ONLY narrative with an autistic empath protagonist and (actually) narcissistic antagonist that is valid is Hannibal TV because Will Graham kills someone in the first episode, is very obviously just as manipulative, and he and Hannibal fall in love and become a mutually toxic autistic/narc murder couple and they are BOTH incredibly traumatized

Hello everyone, Moon here. I just wanna say. If you support or believe in abuse towards those with NPD, BPD, schizophrenia, and anything like that. Kindly get off my page.
I will not tolerate any mistreatment, discrimination, abuse, or harassment towards cluster disorders.
You can reblog if you agree.

idk if this is an npd thing, but when i like someone (platonic or otherwise), i go through a honeymoon stage with them, and after that, i lose interest and move on. people will seem cool or special to me at first, but they eventually lose their value after i get to know them.
