    I understand why “narcissist” will be used in a negative way but I’ve seen people diagnosis anyone they don’t like with NPD. It’s hard to find any good content online about it because everything is just pop psychology clickbait nonsense.

    Nobody irl knows about my diagnosis but I’m afraid of if they find out. If this is all they see they may not want to associate with me. I wish people were more understanding like they are for things like depression or anxiety. It’s such a big thing about that I have to keep secret. I’m dating a guy at the moment. I like him but I’m worried about how he would react if he found out. I’m thinking of just keeping it secret forever but I don’t know if I can.




  • I was abused as a child and I don’t mean “oh, my parents made me go to school” I mean my parents made the first 20 years of my life hell. My dad was more physical but my mom was more indifferent/just a bully. I don’t have any memory of her ever being supportive of me. The opposite in fact. I was never good enough for her. She was always yelling at me and telling how I’ll grow up to be nothing. As of now I only talk to my parents on special occasions like Thanksgiving or Christmas. I don’t know how my brothers or sisters think of them but for me I want nothing to do with them.










  • Not really. It’s been 70/30. I have some male friends and there pretty intimate. Always doing things like slapping my butt and giving me sexual compliments/wolf whistling at me. At first it was pretty awkward then I thought to myself “what’s the problem?” There only complimenting you and there not exactly wrong😏.

    But now I don’t know if there just being friendly or if there flirting with me. I’ve had women say similar things to me before.
