Based on what I've read online, I think my mother may have narcissistic personality disorder. I want to get help for her, but she doesn't think that a problem exists. I don't know how to bring it up to her without her shutting me out of her life completely. I have a long-distance relationship with her, so this is a very real possibility.

Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks a lot, in advance.

Edit: I placed this in this forum specifically because I wanted to know how diagnosed narcissists realized there was a problem. I will have it moved if it belongs somewhere else, but someone will have to point me in the right direction, because I don't know how to have it done.
