Share something I saw not too long ago:
Narcissistic Personality Disorder
One of the few conditions where the patient is left alone and everyone else is treated.

Talk about hitting the nail on the head!!!
As most of you I too feel as if I wasted a year of my time in therapy. Obviously there are specialists somewhere out there but when you get involved with the ones who cannot understand it is very exhausting. Making the search or effort nearly impossible to move ahead to find that "specialist" who understands and can really make a difference. I've been out of therapy for many months now and find that I can really try harder on reflecting on whats needed rather than the circles my last two therapists made my mind travel on. I am diagnosed NPD, INTJ and a gemini so to sum it all up my mind is a mess. I am learning or at least working on maintaining a "I don't care about what anyone views me as" attitude lately. Trying to remove the many different faces I have shown and wearing nothing but I don't give a f&$% about you real face that I own, that I am!! My mind is stuck now in how fake most people are, how it's so accepted and everyday we encounter fakeness and most are on with this. I have put on a face that I no longer will, one that tolerated things like this. I don't need someone I don't care about accept me, to understand me or for me to worry about offending them if I am annoyed. Truth is I let my mind play out so many scenarios at all times and this makes me nuts. I don't even care about a therapist helping me with npd. I wish I could find someone to helps learn how to not care about so many things that I let hold me back. Anyway I know I'm going on and on without any point (all though I'm sure there are a few of you who get me) but I felt like writing tonight especially after reading the posts. Read, enjoy, dislike the new me doesn't care hahaha...
