[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do people become narcissists? [/quote] You don't become a narcissist. You are born with it. It's a mental disorder. It's sad because the person truly can't help it. But the traits are so horrible most people can't stand to be around them.[/quote] No, you aren't born with it. You become self-centered and selfish. Sometimes the parents have spoiled you rotten. Or neglected you. It's always a problematic childhood. Always. Even if it doesn't seem so. Believe me.[/quote] Nature and nurture. I'd say in almost all cases I've seen it's an interaction of both.[/quote] Agree. Also agree that there's a spectrum and people can have some traits without having a full-blown case, although it's tough to determine without a clinical diagnosis because some of the traits (eg self-absorption) are also characteristic of other mental illnesses like depression.[/quote]
