I'm fairly young, so I used to wonder what it was like to be black or gay a few decades ago when racism was more overt. To receive open, direct abuse for a characteristic you have no control over. Even being trans, I never experienced hate so directly.

Then I self-diagnosed with NPD, and I began to meet glowing personalities such as yourself.

Cry me a fuckin’ river.

I grew up around narcissists, take your sympathy story and stuff it in a fucking sack, other people aren’t the problem and you insisting as much, as well as comparing it to sustemic bigotry at that, based on your self-diagnosis is narcissistic as fuck.

You being a narcissist is not other people’s burden, get over yourself. You are not a victim, those around you are.

Ah, you grew up around people with NPD!

Professionally diagnosed? Or did you just apply the label to them because they were bad people, and you know NPD is the being-a-bad-person disorder?

What makes your labelling of them more valid than My self-diagnosis? I, at least, studied the criteria in both the criterion and dimensional models, and read various first person accounts from people with the disability. And I limited My judgements to Myself.

What arrogance you have! No medical school for NotAShark, no clinical interview! No patient consent! No professional boundaries, no HIPPA! Why, you must be the greatest psychiatric mind in a decade to have made multiple diagnoses in such unprofessional circumstances!

Tell Me, why do you think of yourself as the greatest genius who ever lived? Why are you so vain and arrogant, so adamantly sure of your medical opinions?

And why haven't you accused yourself of having NPD after that display of malignant narcissism?

HA! I’ve gotten this text from my brother, almost verbatim, projection and everything, he later got a professional diagnosis, I still don’t talk to him.

You are all the same one page book. Just a bundle of self-centered, condescending, easily injured little bundle of nerves. Get a personality.

Also, you said that you’re a narcissist, I wasn’t imposing nor diagnosing. Is possible that you arent qualified enough to make a medical diagnosis? Are you sure that you’re a narcissist? Is it possible that you’re wrong/flawed? Maybe you’re just a dick.

I didn't say I'm a n*rcissist, I said I have NPD. The difference is one's a slur and one isn't.

But okay, interesting theory that I don't have NPD. In that case, I must have identified with and sought to protect a group of vulnerable neurodivergent people due to a surplus of empathy. And since I'm just like your brother, he doesn't have NPD either. Which means you're an arrogant prick running around misdiagnosing people with mental disorders as an excuse to be hateful. And I'm protecting innocent disabled people from your hate out of the goodness of My heart.

This is an awesome idea you've come up with, I'm getting a lot of narcissistic supply from it! I feel great about Myself!

Hey, call Me a slur again so I can feel morally superior to you.

Sure. Don’t break an arm jerking yourself off that hard, hero.
