Idk what’s wrong with me
Been a bit anxious recently, got somethings on my mind that I could never say to anyone irl. For a while I’ve been worried because I’m not motivated to do anything, I don’t mean like I don’t want to do homework or stuff like that but more like I don’t feel motivation to do anything that doesn’t have immediate benefit, I’m not great at explaining it but the definition of “Narcissist” seems to suit me quite well. I don’t really understand Narcissism and only discovered the definition recently but it seemed to be a good fit for how I’ve been feeling, I haven’t wanted to share this with anyone irl because I don’t know if it has a negative stigma, like online it seems to be the type of person that only does things to help themselves because they don’t care about how others feel, but I do feel sympathy and empathy for people but I just often show a disregard for my future and the law. I don’t fully understand how being a Narcissist works, wether it’s something you sort of choose to feel or a way of viewing the world that isn’t optional, I am the latter. I’m not sure why I’m posting on here as I doubt there is any advice that could make me feel differently, I just wanted to get it out because I can’t tell anyone I know

I hear where you're coming from. Sometimes just writing it down helps to let it out. I agree that there can be a stigma behind narcissism. I feel there is a stigma towards mental health disorders in general. Which is unfortunate. People with a narcissistic disorder shouldn't be judged harshly or condemned. In a way, when people think of NPD in this way, they show a lack of empathy towards people they accuse of lacking in empathy. Have you ever thought about seeing a doctor that can help you identify if you have it or not? 💜

Is this a recent development the feeling of who cares and not wanting to do anything even things that need to be done?
i for one am a person who goes through these phases ..... it is not all about me i just do not see the point and find it almost impossible to motivate me to done ..... i feel it is waves of depression
if you feel empathy and this just came on i doubt it is narcissism ....... IMO I frankly feel as with any label people make up judgement about the label not really understanding the definition even sometimes.
