| Summary |
Diane feels constantly unrecognized and misunderstood. She makes it clear that she believes that her clothes, her success, and the people she associates with are all a cut above the rest. To Diane, whatever Diane is doing is always more important than what other people are doing, which makes the doctor's inability to change appointment times for her all the more frustrating. This training title highlights the major symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder may include: has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents and expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements); is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love; believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions); rarely acknowledges mistakes and/or imperfection; requires excessive admiration; has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations; is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends; lacks empathy; is unwilling or unable to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others; is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her; and shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitude |
