Help me understand. No judgement. I KNOW what its like to have a fractured psyche.

Not shitting on anyones journey but I only arrived here AFTER I cracked the puzzle.

If you know you're NPD, but luxuriating in being grandiose, don't you see that its all a lie you've told/are telling yourself?

Or are those of you who know you're NPD but unwilling to change the malignant type, if so why here?

Have you come to terms with how you've affected other people?

Do you feel you've developed empathy?

I'm genuinely fascinated by how other people arrive in this forum.

I'm starting to feel there may be as much space between some of us as there is from us and normal people.

Not that I'm better in any way. Just wondering. I've jokingly acknowledged that I'm awful but didnt really brlieve it. As soon as I was willing to accept what I was I came here.

How did you get to be here without accepting?

Thank you!
