So I've long suspected that a personality disorder could be my real problem as my usual diagnosis never fit exactly right (which is why I get so many of them). Online tests for personality disorders have yielded interesting results but recently I stumbled across something that absolutely fits me in nearly every respect, the compensatory narcissistic personality disorder. For the first time ever I thought, THAT'S ME!

The problem is that, as I understand it, it doesn't really exist. Right now it's sort of a theory, I suppose like the concept of complex PTSD. Does anyone know anything about this? Here's the link should anyone want to see what I'm talking about http://www.ptypes.com/compensatory-narpd.html

I'm very frustrated right now. It seemed so accurate and then I discover it's not even real?! Grrrr!

It figures, only I could have an illness that doesn't exist.
