To be frank, this is a quick rant. are far too many “non-qualified” and “self-diagnosing narcissistic spectators” really needing to stop throwing this terminology around. It seems like everyone on social media is now a psychiatric doctor, and quickly diagnose everyone who may display any inch of the narcissistic personality disorder. This is concerning, especially when it comes to a failed romantic relationship. As soon as one person doesn’t get what they want or desire out of a relationship, the offender is a narcissist. Wow.
There are so many other personality disorders that many people aren’t aware of. Also, some people are choosing to rush into relationships without the proper analysis of their chosen partner. The breakdown is bound to happen. Anyone could tell you a bunch of bullshit to get you on board with them, treat you great at first, but then when they know you’ve fallen for them is when they flip the script. The essential difference to note is most of these traits lie in people who had experienced trauma early in life.
In other words: “you are what you’re attracted to.”
From someone who experienced this relationship dynamic, I knew blaming someone wasn’t the answer. I had to work on myself and correct the lack of boundaries I had, and see my own personality disorder for what it was. Seeking counseling is definitely something key. Practice what you preach, and find an accountability partner to check your mental health too.
Look within yourself, everyone around you isn’t always the problem.
