Do any of these narcissist types sound familiar? 😕

[@Turtleface869]

I think it’s easy to mistake narcissistic traits for narcissism when others hate/envy you and have other negative traits.

That's a great point! Behaviors are often misinterpreted, especially when we are emotionally charged.

I like this, but an advise is to add some lofi background music as well, albeit at a lower volume.

It's in the plans! Thank you for your support and suggesting this :)

You have incredible self-awareness and honesty to recognize this and share your thoughts. 💪 I'd recommend reaching out to a therapist or counselor for professional guidance and support. You've got this!
