I'm sure we have all heard of the word narcissist, it's a word that frequently gets thrown around in everyday life without stopping to think about what it actually means. It often gets used in place of words like "toxic", "abusive", "self absorbed" or just simply "unpleasant", but what most people don't realise is that being a narcissist or more accurately having narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is actually a mental health condition. While narcissism itself is a spectrum and everyone is bound to have some form of narcissistic traits, people with NPD fall on the "extreme" side of these traits, in this post I will explain the characteristics of NPD, the actual definition of such and other relevant information to bring awareness to this condition to show it's a lot more than just a societal buzzword. 

Welcome to my blog, I'm glad you're here!
