If you talk to a psychiatrist or psychologist — many will tell you the most difficult type of personality to deal with is those with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Narcisistic personalities are amongst the hardest patients for psychiatrists to treat, for the simple reason that their disorder stems from an unshakeable belief that they can do no wrong.
Narcissists often have an unrealistic sense of entitlement. They also lack empathy and find it hard to see other people’s points of view. They are also pre-occupied with status, money and power.
Their looks can be something they obsess over and depression often starts in their forties when they start to appear older and lose their youthful looks. Many resort to plastic surgery and can hold distorted beliefs bordering on delusional.
Basic Diagnosis of Narcissism
You might recognize some of the 7 common traits of narcissism in a colleague, parent, child, spouse, or a friend:
An inability to listen to others, and a lack of awareness of another persons deadlines, time frames, interests or perspectives.
An inability to admit wrongdoing — even sometimes when presented with objective evidence of their errors or behavior.
