Ever heard of a collapsed narcissist? Do you know a narcissist who lives in a role of being a perpetual victim? Someone who hates everyone in the world, or at least a whole bunch of people, because somehow, those people are the cause for his or her misery? Have you noticed that often, these kinds of narcissists seem to be completely alone in the world? They have no regular source of supply, and they just seem to be taking out their hateful energy on the world at large?

Sometimes, a narcissist just sort of loses their ability to obtain sources of narcissistic supply. This can happen when the narc's family and friends have just had enough and one-by-one, abandon them.

In some cases, the narcissist loses their ability to attract new supply because they get older and lose their looks, or because they become so self-involved that they forget how to do the whole love bombing thing - or any combination of these things.

But a narcissist really NEEDS that supply to continue to exist, right? So what happens then? Do they become a real person, or do they just sort of lose it?

When a narcissist is unable to obtain narcissistic supply, what can you expect? Some people call this a narcissistic crisis or a collapsed narcissist. Whatever the label, it's a big problem - and often, not just for the narcissist, but also for the people around them.

A collapsed narcissist is a narcissist who has not been able to obtain the proper narcissistic supply - as in, a person to help bolster his or her self-worth, self-esteem - value as a human being. In essence, they feel like they've been denied the very supply they need to exist - their proverbial life's blood. This leads to narcissistic injury, and as the collapsed narcissist writhes helplessly in the pain of not getting what they believe they're due (whether it's meeting some big goal or simply getting the admiration and praise they feel they rightly deserve), their whole world feels like it's falling down around them.

The narcissist loses self-esteem and their self-image is nearly erased. They begin to self-devalue and self-doubt. They literally hate themselves to the point that they project this self-hate on to everyone else around them. Since everyone "hates" the narcissist, they reason, the narcissist may as well hate them back.
