[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Narcissism is way over used these days.  I wonder what "diagnosis" are children will have or us?  Don't fool ourselves into thinking you won be judged just as harshly.[/quote]

I agree. That said, some of us who post here are referring to clinical diagnoses, and have the kinds of life experiences with relatives that would shock and horrify you. I wish I were "way" over using the term and that it didn't have anything to do with my family. Now that would be a dream come true.[/quote]

It's a spectrum - with varying degrees. It's not all or nothing. You may have been burned by a textbook narcissist but surely you can understand that there are varying degrees of intensity. And while there may be rampant over labeling at least it gives folks a framework to better understand life and hopefully better themselves through understanding. Knowledge is power, as corny as it sounds.
 
If you'd rather the world live in ignorance so you can hide from a potential label well then... I don't even know.[/quote]
