For many many years I always new something was off but because our ways are so second nature it really never clicked or could be explained. That was until I found NPD then explanations were no longer needed as it fit me to a T.
This was my experience, also. I knew I was "different" somehow but I didn't know that difference had a name. Then I saw NPD and yes, it fits me to a T.

My best interactions were found in places like this as I found people who were so close in their ways to my own that it was crazy. Does help when someone can relate, especially when you are trying to "fix" actually "modify" yourself.
I've gained so much knowledge from posting and reading posts here. I've been able to really think things through and analyze myself further, and it does help that you Sir Underground are around because you are so often putting my thoughts into words! *hands Underground a medal*

I'm not into the whole "fixing" and "changing" thing. But "modifying", yes, absolutely.

Fact is that we were turned into something we never asked for. Our roles as pawns in childhood created our world and yet we mostly here from only the "victims" and how people like us should only be ran from. How can we do what we do? Why are we so cold? How can one not have empathy and so on? The victims you mostly read of are ones who have had MULTIPLE Ns in their lives. What does this tell you..... It tells me that these "victims" search for these types and then when they are hurt they bash and then go find another. Just remember we did not wake up one day and said "today I feel like having NPD". This is what was left for us for many reasons of the same. Don't fall into the BS of victims and what we are because these people hurt and believe because of that we deserve nothing. Well nothing is what we had as children and this is why we are who we are!!! So again, I will repeat one more time "Screw the victims" we are in our safe place. This forum is designed for "us" and people like us. If "victims" like to respond please see the 40,000 other sites just for the "victims" of Narcissists.
****ing PREACH IT! There's a ****load of sites for victims of Narcissists to talk about how evil we are, and like you said it's not like any of us Narcissists woke up and said, "oh hey, today I am going to become a Narcissist." Come the **** on!

What you said about manipulating your own mind, can you explain that more in depth? I am very curious to hear about that one from another Narcissist.
