    About this ebook

    In this guide, we will go over some interesting subtopics related to narcissism, such as the impact of celebrities on narcissists in society, of social media, and other significant influences.



    Also, we’ll go over a small checklist that you can use to see if a narcissist is a threat or not, so you know what to expect. Narcissism is often an issue in politics. Some narcissists are also sociopaths, and some narcissists are just the result of our civilization’s greedy emphasis on monetary values and the showing off of status symbols of wealth.



    And then all of this begs the question: Is narcissism ever beneficial? Or is it always wrong? And if so, to what extend?
    To learn more about these things, simply pick up this book online and start reading or listening.

      Really remarkable, I have to say. I liked several parts of the book much better than other parts. You 'd need to be an imbecile not to love publications such as these. And so, with that being mentioned, I do highly recommend it.
    • 5/5
      I do not regret getting this electronic manual. I liked several sections of the book much better than other aspects. You 'd have to be rather strange if you don't like a manual such as this one. And so, with this being mentioned, I do strongly recommend it.

    Chapter 1: What Is One of the Most Overlooked Symptom of Narcissism?

    Narcissism is manifested in communication patterns that include habitual non-listening. Narcissists tend to do lots of talking and really little listening. The narcissist knows best, after all, so why even bother listening to what other people have to say?

    Ever spoken with someone who reacted dismissively to every little thing you said? Narcissists brush aside or deprecate what others say rather than really listening. One tip-off is the word, But ... But deletes whatever came previously. But a much better way to look at it is ... Another tip-off is intonation. If the response sounds inflamed or deprecating, that's the sound of a hesitation to listen for what's valid in what you just said.

    Why Do Not Therapists Use Poor Listening to Assess Narcissism?

    Most psychologists work with individual patients instead of with couples. Narcissistic individuals do tend to listen to somebody they see as higher in power than themselves. If those with narcissistic habits respect their therapists, their listening can seem to their therapist to be quite normal.

    If the therapist, in contrast, were to see that same client connecting with her or his spouse or workers, the listening patterns would most likely be glaringly different: dismissive, ignoring altogether, decreasing the value of the point that the spouse or worker just made, disagreeing with it, or pointing out what was wrong with it.

    There's an additional reason why therapists seldom keep in mind the narcissistic pattern of dismissive listening: the DSM. The DSM-5-- also called the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition-- notes the factors that therapists usage for diagnosing psychological issues and troublesome character patterns. Sadly, this manual makes no mention of listening deficiencies as a diagnostic element for narcissism. Again, psychology in a general sense-- and a lot more so, the psychiatrists who write the DSM manual-- have traditionally focused primarily on individuals rather than on what those people do when they are connecting with others.

    Therapists tend to see what we have been taught to look for. Our diagnostic manual omits teaching us to look at communication patterns like poor listening practices.

    How Can You Deal With Narcissistic Dismissive Listening in Your Life?

    If somebody you know talks with minimal listening, most importantly, do not take it personally. Dismissing what you say as wrong or unimportant says more about that individual than it does about you or what you have said. Just as you would not take personally the restricted hearing ability of somebody with partial deafness, realize that your narcissistic good friend, colleague, or loved one has a genuine handicap.

    Second, just like you would repeat-- maybe more loudly-- what
