A member asked:
Is narcissism a legitimate personality disorder for which a person needs to get treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Narcissist: YES. Therapy for narcissists is often arduous, painful for both patient and therapist, as the narcissist is eventually brought to a place of what is known as profound narcissistic injury, which is the beginning of his poor self esteem that the narcissism resolutely defends against. I would opt for psychoanalysis.
