In modern medicine, various kinds of psychological disorders that a person may encounter are described in some detail. Such disorders include perverted narcissism. A state where a person does not notice anyone except himself can sometimes go beyond, and in this case can already be considered pathology. It is difficult to diagnose this psychological disease, because a person’s diagnosis cannot be made without certain knowledge in psychology and psychiatry. This article will describe in more detail the features of this disease, its signs and methods of treatment.
Features
Perverse narcissism is a specific personality disorder and certain behaviors that can be manifested in the same extent in both women and men. People with this disorder are called “narcissus”. However, it’s not worthwhile to call every person who is too loving himself so much, because this disease is difficult to determine without being a professional doctor. Moreover, this disease has various forms, when a person suffering from this disease does not pose any danger to society. The features of perverted narcissism also include:
- unreasonable high personal self-esteem;
- no regrets or feelings toward other people;
- a sense of superiority over all other members of society.
Speaking of the man "narcissus", who suffers from severe pathology, it can be mentioned that such individuals "play" their own games against the opposite sex. That, in turn, often negatively affects the latter. Women start to suffer from depression, and sometimes more serious psychological traumas are received.
Perverse daffodils have a peculiar and even specific manner of behavior, which they develop not in one year. Such people very often deny their actions and often do not do what they promise. These people almost always try to subjugate the will of their interlocutor or partner.
Perverse daffodils love to manipulate the feelings of others, without experiencing true experiences. They simply are not typical of them. Such people never take into account the opinions of others. Many doctors believe that people with neglected pathology are absolutely cold-blooded and insensitive.
The causes of the formation and formation of pathology
To date, there is no clear answer from experts, why does this disorder occur? But, like many other disorders and complexes, it can have roots in childhood. This may be associated with an inferiority complex, dissatisfaction with their appearance or position in society. The provocation of this disease may be caused by improper upbringing or insufficient attention given to the child.
Sometimes experts even talk about the genetic predisposition of this type of disorder. And sometimes this disorder can be a symptom of even more dangerous diseases, for example, it may well be schizophrenia.
Signs of
It is rather difficult to list all the signs of a “narcissus”, because each person is inherently very individual, and therefore the disease can manifest itself in one way or another in different ways. Nevertheless, the most significant common moments that make it possible to recognize a “narcissus” are:
- very strong fantasies of great success, which the alleged narcissus constantly keeps talking about;
- the presence of desires for worship from specific people and society as a whole;
- arrogance and excessive ambition, not supported by any action;
- open negative on any criticism in their own direction;
- all kinds of masking complexes;
- the use of other people for their own selfish purposes.
Men and women with this pathology are never interested in the success of other people, including relatives. They often talk about idols, and then in every way they gaze at them. There are certain signs that are of a gender nature. So, male daffodils are always very arrogant, have the desire to become very rich and famous, whatever that may be.
Such men, as a rule, do not deny themselves anything, even if opportunities do not allow them to do so. They very often neglect the attitude of the fair sex. Moreover, men are very demanding and proud. Typical male daffodils are financially dependent on their parents or ladies of the heart. As a rule, they think of the family at the last moment or do not think at all, putting themselves at the forefront. As for women, their pathology of perverse narcissism manifests itself in the following:
- they excessively monitor their appearance, reaching the point of absurdity;
- looking for rich and wealthy partners, even if they understand that they are not a couple;
- admire themselves at every opportunity, praising themselves in every way;
- very often, in pursuit of the ideal appearance, female narcissists resort to plastic surgeries, other surgical interventions, and excessive use of decorative cosmetics.
Despite the fact that a woman can have this type of pathology, it is rather difficult to identify her. In appearance, such well-groomed persons do not seem to be mentally ill and seeking their own benefit; on the contrary, they are often admired. Such girls, like male daffodils, do not prefer to earn money on their own, most often they are financed by their parents. In any case, some people may simply have high self-esteem and this does not mean that they are sick.
And because once again it is worth noting that it is simply impossible to diagnose a neighbor, relative or some strange person, even despite the knowledge of certain features of this pathology.
Developing a relationship with daffodil
Many individuals, starting a conversation with interlocutors, can not immediately recognize the daffodil. It is also very difficult to identify, just by looking at it. People with pathology are very gallant and often make a good impression at first glance, with the result that it is quite pleasant to communicate with them. It is almost impossible to suspect anything until a certain time.
The first stages of a relationship with a man or woman suffering from perverted narcissism may seem very "sweet." Many researchers even call them "honeymoon", but then everything changes radically and relationships begin to be completely different. Since people with narcissistic perversion have a serious personality disorder, they very often feel dissatisfied, although they do not show it. But, when their partner bothers them, they cease to hide it, showing their real essence. Then the relationship in the literal sense can turn into a real nightmare.
It is difficult to say whether it’s difficult to establish friendships with such people, it all depends on the form of the disease and how neglected the behavior is. But if we talk about serious pathology and directly about the relationship of the couple, then this relationship is a dead end. If they will develop a certain time and bring some pleasure, then in the future nothing good will come.
Of course, there can be exceptions in pairs, especially if the “narcissistic nature” still has a desire to heal.
Characteristic Moral Violence Techniques
Despite the fact that the behavior of the narcissus is difficult to predict, experts note certain cliches and specific techniques that people with this pathology skillfully use. So, the reception is related to the data.
- Exaggeration of any problems, embellishment of situations in their favor.
- Reluctance to listen to a partner, to understand his feelings and emotions. Frequent "switching" of full attention to oneself, while the partner discusses something important and vital. In this case, the narcissus can use ridicule, dramatically changing the topic of conversation.
- An alarming bell can also be the fact that the partner-narcissus will misinterpret the words of his interlocutor.
- Also, people with such a disease can simply boycott those with whom they communicate, without explaining the reasons for them.
- And, finally, they can show sudden attacks of aggression, even in relation to close people and relatives. They can very often be angry when something went wrong.
A perverse daffodil will always try to destroy another person in order to gain all power over him. And many weak personalities, unfortunately, are amenable to such influence.
Treatment methods
Diagnosis and any therapeutic measures should be prescribed by a professional. This disease is usually not detected at the very beginning of its occurrence, and therefore it becomes chronic, with the result that therapy sessions can be problematic. As a rule, specialists develop a specific course of treatment, trying to interest the patient and push him to self-healing. The best indicators in the cure show exactly psychotherapy sessions, and not medication treatment. It is advisable to appoint the latter if, in addition to a single disorder, a person has depression, panic attacks or any phobias, all this requires mandatory adjustment.
In any specific situations with mixed disorders, the specialist may prescribe tranquilizers, antidepressants, other sedatives and herbal medicines to the patient. However, medications to a greater extent dull the symptoms of this or that disorder, while not curing the disease. To achieve the best result, complex therapy must be applied, which necessarily includes meetings with a psychotherapist.
Victim advice
Of course, the best way to avoid problems is not to have contact with such people at all, because it is very difficult to resist them. Perverse daffodils as if feed on the energy of those to whom they are aiming, with this it is difficult to do anything. As a rule, if a man-daffodil treats his woman scornfully in everyday life and in many other things as regards the family, then it is difficult to do anything. Most often, experts and family psychologists solve problems more simple situations involving household quarrels.
But if we are talking about narcissus, then either long-term therapy will be required, or people will have to disperse. Sometimes women choose humility, but again, for a long time they are not enough. A woman should realize that if it happened that her elect suffers from this pathology and is a tyrant, then this is not his fault. This has already happened. But this is not a reason to endure and allow in every way to mock yourself.
In rare cases, behavioral correction with the help of a specialist gives results, but only if the narcissistic pervert is interested in it, and not the victim. It is also understood that narcissus people often suffer from sensations that destroy them from the inside. Some of them even suffer from loneliness because they cannot cope with themselves.
