Narcissism
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Narcissism describes a pattern in which an exaggerated self-image, the need for admiration, and difficulty recognizing the needs of others predominate. As a trait it can appear to varying degrees, and in some cases it is addressed within the field of mental health when it interferes with daily life.
How it may show up: a sense of superiority, a constant search for recognition, sensitivity to criticism, and tense interpersonal relationships.
Why pay attention to it? When these traits cause significant distress or conflict at work or in relationships, it is worth exploring them with professional support.
Who provides support? Mental health professionals, such as the psychologist or the psychiatrist, are the ones who can guide this process. If the pattern affects the well-being of the person or those around them, talking with a specialist is helpful.
