Re: "Sorry, But Your Ex Probably Isn't a Narcissist" (The Truth!) With Angela Atkinson and Dana Morningstar - Responding to this article on Psychology Today: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/acquainted-the-night/201912/sorry-your-ex-probably-isnt-narcissist
From the article: "It seems there is a great hunger for info on narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) — what it is, how to identify it, how to co-exist with someone who exhibits NPD, or how to go on after having been in a relationship with a narcissist. This great interest is curious, given that NPD is a relatively rare condition — at least it is one encountered only infrequently in clinical settings. The highest prevalence rates reported run around 6-7% for men and 4-5% for women. But people with NPD are not known for seeking help from mental health clinicians. In fact, if a patient were to tell me that they were worried that they might have narcissistic personality disorder, I could be fairly certain that they don't — narcissists don't worry about being narcissists. To do so would imply the presence of empathy: "I worry about being a narcissist because being a narcissist would mean that I am harming or exploiting others and I wouldn't want to do that." This is logic that does not compute for someone with a true case of NPD."
In this video, Dana Morningstar and Angela Atkinson respond to the article.
