About the Topic:
Nowadays the term “Narcissist” is used very often in a quite loosely way and unfortunately downplays most of the times what it actually is and what it does to people that are in any way involved with a person demonstrating the symptoms of a Narcissist. We will learn about what Narcissism is and what it is not. We will learn about what are the criteria for a diagnosis of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. We will look into Narcissistic traits and behaviors. We will explore how targets of a Narcissist are impacted and what Narcissistic Abuse is. We will have time for discussion and get questions answered.
