You have been impacted severely by a person with narcissistic qualities at some point in your life.
You suffer with oppositional defiance.
You have some other disorder maybe even NPD but you want to make yourself hurt a little less by trying to convince the world that you in fact are not disordered because the so called disorder is not real.
You love to repeat yourself over and over and over and over again.
And last but definitely not least, your very flamboyant yet have not fully come out of the closet yet.... Still just peeking out. Anxiety issues you spoke of earlier I suppose.

Little more:
You read all the time
You have family members that are doctors so you feel it's your right to act as if your one as well.

You have to see that everyone is turning against you here. I will bet it's safe to say that you have plenty of experience with this already in the real world. Probably that it's not so much as real people turn against you as much as it's that never anyone takes much notice of you in the real world(reason for all the reading and anxiety issues).

Anyway you said this is here for us all to share so I have done my part for now.
That was extremely incoherent.

I don't find strangers on an internet forum disagreeing with me to be distressing. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. "Turning against?" Hardly. You don't know what my PM's look like. I understand why you need to believe I'm an uneducated disordered schmuck.

There are folks who share my opinion lecturing in schools of psychology, that should concern you. You know how I know that? A psychologist who lectures at a top university is who implored me to avoid pathology and shared that the field is moving that way; I also have a background in academia and have heard the arguments among psych students - so, no, I don't just read a lot.

I have anxiety, there is no shame in that. However, I am not anxiety. Labels help with treatment but they're least effective when people take shelter under them and dont do their work. Anxiety is a part of my identity, not the whole of it. Every human experiences anxiety. The only difference between me and other humans is that mine occasionally disrupts my quality of life - that is what makes it a disorder. It's my job to manage that, not cling to pathology for dear life and aspire to special snowflake status. I own my stuff without shame; I don't rest on labels or wrap myself in pathology and/or lap up complacency.

I work in a competitive high pressure industry and I'm great at what I do. Through my work I get to help people be the best versions of themselves. I love seeing people realize their greatness and knowing I had something to do with that. No one gets there by way of perpetual victimhood.
