Maybe I shouldn't butt in here, but, I have a little one (10) who is very narcissistic. (that is a google-able one). I have read alot about Antisocial Personality disorders, and I am by no means a therapist.What I have learned, is, she had it VERY rough at home for about the first 6 or 7 years. I was very ill, and to a kid, mom is just not there, they don't understand why, but we as parents, are "god like" to a child. Kids believe that they are the center of the universe, and parents are only there to take care of them. It is healthy for kids to feel that way. When they don't get the care that is needed, they can develop emotional issues.On top of me not being as available as I should have been (I cant remember the first maybe 2 years of her life, so I don't know HOW available I was, but with my Graves Desease, I know I slept ALOT), my daughter had an abusive father. He is a convicted child molester, was verbally more so than physically violent, but physical violence DID rear it's ugly head over the years.When I finally got MY act together and got rid of her father, his other daughter finally said something about the sexual abuse. At that point he destroyed our home (mostly the kids stuff) with a match and gasoline...That was 4 years ago next month. And she hasn't seen her father in 4 years as of last month.My daughters and I got on with it, went through our/my own other set of problems. My little one, got very attached to someone who committed suicide...that has been a year and a half ago. She still packs the stuffed dog with her that "he" gave her. She is living in the "what if he would have lived" world.Though, since I got well, I have been constant support, love, and discipline for her, she lives in a world of negativity. The way she sees the world:Why care? I open up my heart, and it gets hurt.Why get attached, things/people just get taken away.No one understands me (screamed at the top of her lungs usually).Someone else ALWAYS did it to her. The kid at school hit her, but she doesn't understand that he did it because she tripped him, or stole from them...The teacher doesn't like her because she makes her sit still in class. The bus driver doesn't like her, because she separates my daughter from other children whom she fights with. My daughter doesn't understand that the other child was reprimanded too.For her, she is only 10, her ways aren't set in. A diagnosis, and a game plan, may keep her from having a miserable life. MAYBE I can teach her how to see the good, and the balances that DO happen in this world that she misses.Maybe it's the case for you too....I don't know, that you see the world the way she does. Maybe somewhat, but, I wonder about your history. That in ways like her, you just learned that there are such painful things in this world,at such a young age, that this is how you cope by not having any feelings. It is impossible to shut off one emotion without shutting off others...Wanna talk, look me up. I don't get time on msn hardly anymore, but, I do pm, and email. Just takes a bit longer. *sorry everyone for the re-run spiel.
