A great resource on NPD and Treatment (Elsa Ronningstam, Ph.D.)

Dear Members, Listeners

I've talked to quite a lot of members who have been diagnosed with a cluster B personality disorder and it can be challenging to build a constructive (long term) L-M relationship for those who do not really understand the topic. While I could share my personal insight based on my knowledge and experience I believe it is better to share one of the more important studies that helped form my opinion and approach.

When try to gain insight into NPD there's a chance you stumbled across Sam Vaknin's Youtube channel and it does contain a lot of valuable information. His insight is valuable because has been diagnosed with the personality disorder and wrote a book about his experience. Another treasure of a resource is a study written by Elsa Ronningstam Ph.D , "A brief overview of identifying, diagnosing and treating Narcissistic Personality Disorder". I consider this paper one of the most accurate regarding NPD in general and it also focusses on treatment for the personality disorder.

The paper is published on http://www.borderlinepersonalitydisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/NPD-Basic-Second-Edition-In-Print-03-2016.pdf
