Narcissists are humans. They are humans with a personality disorder which is considered a mental health condition. They need and seek a lot of attention and want people to admire them. People with this disorder may lack the ability to understand or care about the feelings of others. They wear a false mask and behind this mask of extreme confidence, they are not sure of their self-worth and have low esteem.

They have a lot of bad and negative traits that has impacted others’ lives in an extreme negative way. The hurt, harm, and psychological danger that they impose would make one question if they’re humans or not. Below are a few ways they operate and function.

  • Take advantage of others to get what they want.
  • Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others.
  • Envious of others and believe others envy them.
  • They are experts at sabotage, power, control, and dominance when it comes to their victims.
  • Become impatient or angry when they don’t receive special recognition or treatment.
