Sorry, I thought I remembered you writing that you met the criteria for NPD but only had some antisocial traits. Lacking the capacity to love, being born without it, sounds like what I understand to be a neurological deficit associated with psychopathy, not necessarily NPD.
Thanks for asking, I'm doing OK. As in, I think, and my T does to, that I'm now pretty capable of functioning as a "normal" authentic human being. But, wow, the pain and agony I had to go through to feel the feelings I had dissociated from. If psychologists can't comes up with a better way. . .still, it CAN be done, though if I had had to work and hadn't lucked into finding my current T it probably wouldn't have happened for me.
