Hi. Im new here. Im gonna try to make this short but i could really use some feedback.
I have anger issues. I get iirratated very easily. I have low self esteem but yet i think very highly of myself if that makes any sense. I lack empathy terribly. Im self centered. Im always looking for people to give me what i feel i deserve. I often act as if im superior to people. I have problems with drug and alcohol abuse. I am terribly with my money. I lie and or just dont tell the whole truth. I have a fear of my bf or loved ones abandoned me. I have bad releationships with everyone in my life. Ive tryed to commit suicide once. Was hospitalized for 10 days. I use to cut myself. I am depressed. Highhh anxiety. I thought for a ling time i had bpd now im thinking i have npd . Im not sure whst to do. Or how to better my life. I use to see a psychiatrist but am no longer doing so. And i think they were treating me wrong all along. I am on a mood stabalizer and anxiety medication along with adhd medication. Anybidy have any thoughts or advice? Im very confused now.

The research I've done on the topic suggests there is a continuum and some overlap between the two. But, in general pwNPD's don't tend to attempt suicide or cut themselves. Even though pwNPD's are unhappy, they tend to have a very high opinion of themselves.

Have you considered going to another psychiatrist, or perhaps a therapist and telling him about your thoughts on the matter? None of us here are trained professionals.
