Absolutely.

And to Doc John, do you read the newsletter? Every time there is something about narcissism and psychopathy, and always from the view of others, never from the view of the sufferer.

It IS sensationalism that is going on here.

If the articles the newsletters link to would be the slightest correct, there would at least be a point keeping them.

Also I do have a huge problem with the same thing in the newsletter talking about on how to recognize "toxic" people. It could be a copy-paste because the new articles aren't that different from the old one. Toxic is so overused, and basically we're supposed to stop being with anyone that is "toxic" = rubbed us the wrong way more than once...

In reality people with mental illness are often "toxic" and should be shunned by the same logic... But the authors never really think about that, do they?
