Narcissistic Personality Disorder Support
Hi so I got diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder recently and I feel fine about it but even if it's out of my control I kind of hate dealing with it because recently I have been feeling that I am famous and popular and since that I have depression and I am having suicidal thoughts and I feel like people around me want to kill me. Some support and advice would be nice and this is a judgement free zone and if you are living Narcissistic Personalty Disorder like me tell me your story and what you do for self care because I need more self care tips to help myself more.
Hello,
Sending strength and friendship, My name is Day,
I have a good friend who doesn't realize he is a narcissist and I often feel bad for him because he doesn't seem happy and I think if he feels like you sometimes. I know he was suicidal a while back and people seem to leave him often so he is alone in a sense. Keep your chin up, you have a great advantage over my friend because you are aware and now can put in a little work in therapy and get past it. You're not alone, this is a great site to find like-minded kind people who work to help - it gives us purpose to help others!
Blessings, Day

Dear Moon,
it is extremely rare to see an individual with Nacissistic personality disorder openly talking about it and whatsmore - even accepting the diagnosis. This is not something common among NPD individuals.
As Juliak said in the before comment, I highly agree that this is a huge advantage on your side and an enormous stepping stone towards healing. I do understand that acceptance is difficult. Nobody is thrilled to be diagnosed with any disorder. You have to understand though that narcissism was created by your mind as a coping mechanism in order to fight what is happening in your reality. The little narcissist in you served you to protect you - that was his main purpose and that is why he was created in the first place.
Now that you are aware of this, in the future you will establish new, far better and much more constructive ways of coping and protecting yourself from external influences. You are already on a path towards healing by seeking out help with writing this post.
You are doing well Moon ❤️ Thank you for sharing your story and opening up. I wish you the best luck and don't forget to speak kindly to yourself ❤️
