Difficult to maintain your relationships with people who have narcissistic personality disorder.
They will often disappoint you by prioritizing their own needs, over yours, and will not apologize for doing so.
You may feel like
you are struggling to gain their attention,
walking on eggshells in order to avoid offending them or
constantly working to avoid being blamed for the negative experiences in their lives.
If so, do your best to take stock of these narcissistic traits.
Being aware of these personalities, and their subtypes may help you create better boundaries between yourself and the people who embody them.
In this presentation I introduce the concept of narcissism from a developmental as well as a cultural point of view. I also tie the concept to postmodernity and discuss why narcissism is so prevalent in our culture. I will discuss what may lay ahead as well as other psychological disturbances are concerned.

Red Flags to Narcissistic Personality Disorder compiled by Jeni MawterJeni Mawter
Narcissistic Personality Disorder is insidious and toxic. It destroys relationships with partners, family, friends, work colleagues and members of the community.
This slide show identifies some of the red flags that signal a relationship with someone with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
It is an attempt to explain aberrant relationship behaviours that may be observed at home, with partners, at work, or in community groups.
This a project for a high school AP Psychology course. This is a fictionalized account of having a psychological ailment. For questions about this blog project or its content please email the teacher, Laura Astorian: laura.astorian@cobbk12.org
People Who Cause You Harm: How to Explain Dramatic and Erratic Personality Di...Jeni Mawter
This presentation identifies a massive gap in trauma-informed care for young people, the long-term harm of having a parent or family member with a personality disorder, specifically the Cluster “B” Personality Disorders.
Society is going through a radical shift in how it views, treats and manages Anxiety, Depression, Suicide Prevention, and Substance Abuse and Addiction. Rapid technological advances are seeing a cross fertilization between the traditional medical sciences of neurology and psychiatry. The traditional approach was that damage to the nervous system resulted in neurological disorders whereas psychiatric disorders involved disturbed behavior and emotional states. Today we know that neurological changes underpin psychiatric disorders as well as mental health and mental illness.
Another huge breakthrough in the neuropsychiatric research findings is the link to Mental Health and Trauma. Childhood Trauma initially focused on physical abuse in the Domestic Violence setting. Gradually, emotional abuse was taken into consideration to address risk and harm. Children and young people were considered at risk in light of such factors as homelessness, refugee and asylum seekers, juvenile justice settings and for those in indigenous communities. The issue of personality disorder and family relationships and breakdown has been ignored.
A personality disorder is a mental health disorder that affects how a person thinks, behaves and relates to others. The Cluster “B” parent has erratic and dramatic emotions and behaviors. Regulating emotions and maintaining healthy relationships is impossible. They are impulsive, low in empathy and low in conscience. They have a need to manipulate, control and disempower others. For family members, specifically their children, this culminates in significant distress and trauma. There is considerable harm to social, emotional, cognitive, spiritual and educational development.
Currently, there are almost no resources for children and young adults who have a Cluster “B” parent. The first step to healing is education to understand what, how and why this has happened to them. This SlideShare presentation aims to shed light on such questions as: What happened to me? Am I crazy? Are they the psycho or am I? Why do I feel so depressed/anxious/worthless? Most importantly, the goal is to help towards hope and healing, good mental health, resilience and peace.
Call to Action: Cluster “B” pathology is insidious, pernicious, deliberate and dangerous. These parents have tremendous destructive potential. Harm is hidden behind charm. They impact homes, families, workplaces, relationships and societies. Education is critical for every person in every system caught in the aftermath of dealing with their destruction: mental health, general health, family law, police departments, criminal justice, domestic violence and social service. Thank you.
How to get away with murder a slideshare on covert narcissistic abuse by jeni...Jeni Mawter
Covert Narcissistic Abuse is an insidious form of prolonged abuse that targets a person's psyche or soul. Often not recognised as abuse by either the target victim or others it corrodes the person's sense of Self to the point where they feel like they're going crazy. They have no idea they are in a war zone with a designated enemy or enemies. Using subtle, or covert tools of manipulation, oppression, mind-control and denigration the target victim shuts down emotionally, cognitively, socially and physically till all that is left is a husk of their former Self. The end result can be viewed as murder - suicide, homicide, soul murder, spirit murder, mind murder and emotions murder. Covert Narcissistic Abuse by people with Covert Narcissistic Personality is still not recognized by the medical fraternity. Psychiatrists, Psychologists and General Practitioners are ill-educated about Narcissistic Personality Disorders and their toxic fall-out. Knowledge about Overt NPD is improving as more and more targets, or victims, raise its profile in the social media space. However, Covert NPD remains 'off the radar' of society's conscious reeking uninterrupted havoc to families and communities. If this Slideshare resonates with you please like and share with others. Thank you.
The hallmarks of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) are
Grandiosity, A lack of empathy for other people, and A need for admiration. People with this condition are frequently described as Arrogant,Self-centered, Manipulative, and Demanding.
They may also concentrate on Grandiose fantasies (e.g. their own success, beauty, brilliance) and May be convinced that they deserve special treatment.
Verbal Abuse and the Narcissist: Communication Tactics Designed to Make you C...Jeni Mawter
People with Narcissistic Personality Disorders have an inflated sense of their own importance, a strong sense of entitlement, a deep need for admiration, yet a lack of empathy for others.
They use verbal abuse for power and control. Verbal Abuse is often dismissed as insignificant when compared to physical abuse. BUT, the long-term effect of verbal abuse is that you can lose your sense of 'self'. You no longer know who you are. It feels like you've lost your soul.

When Narcissistic Abuse is Domestic Violence: "Why didn't you leave?" -Things...Jeni Mawter
Domestic abuse, or Domestic Violence, is a scourge world-wide. It destroys families, relationships and communities. Typically, the public is presented with physical abuse as the main parameter of Domestic Violence - blood and bruises - but there is another form of abuse that is hidden, leaves no physical scars but is even more decimating. This is Domestic Violence from prolonged Narcissistic Abuse. This is a personal story of the pernicious nature of Narcissistic Abuse which can, over time, lead to brain trauma or injury. A cautionary tale of our time.

Why Can't I Move On? Narcissistic Abuse: A Complex Trauma. Compiled by Jeni M...Jeni Mawter
A person with Narcissistic Personality Disorder sucks the life and shatters the soul out of the caring person in the relationship. Healing from Narcissistic Abuse is a long and painful process. To move on from this toxic and hopeless situation seems insurmountable. This PowerPoint was created to address the question I am most commonly asked: ‘Why Can’t I Move On?’ I hope it helps.

Quick review of the essential points— DSM5 diagnosis criteria, assessments, treatments—of these disorders to better prepare for the National Clinical Mental Health Counseling Exam. This was informed by several exam prep programs, and can be used like flashcards or as a presentation.
Personality disorder, as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association, Fourth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR), is an enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior that differs markedly from the expectations of the individual's culture, is pervasive and inflexible, has an onset in adolescence or early adulthood, is stable over time, and leads to distress or impairment
Ic2s2 Tutorial on Modeling Human Values via Social Media DataISI Foundation
Understanding human values with an empirical approach, both from a qualitative and quantitative point of view, allows us to better model behaviours, actions, and attitudes towards social phenomena. It is invaluable in the design of, for instance, effective health interventions - such as encouraging vaccination- or even appropriate communication campaigns for policy making - such as sensibilization towards pro-environmental attitudes. This is important since public debate on human values often focuses on perceived threats to different values while rarely understanding or articulating how values are inferred from people’s behaviors and judgements. In this tutorial, we give an overview of how the basic human and moral values are interpreted according to the psychological literature, as a combination of individual, societal, and cultural forces. We discuss the latest research in assessing these through both traditional methods, as well as through quantitative methods applied to digital data. In the first part, we provide an overview of traditional survey methods, and discuss their applicability to the new forms of discourse, the validity of recruitment using the Internet and new opportunities this medium holds. In the second part, we consider several case studies of applying computational methods to large amounts of social media data for understanding values associated with specific domains, including politics, health, charitable giving, and privacy, and discuss how social media can capture the behavioral differences in large populations of different values. Here, we introduce methodologies for large scale data analysis including topic discovery, topic refinement, grounded theory labeling, network science, and regression modeling. We conclude with the discussion of ethical use of such modeling, including data and model bias, informed consent, intervention design, and the use of persuasive technology.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

2. Defining the Disorder:
Narcissism
Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental disorder in which people have an inflated
sense of their own importance and a deep need for admiration. Those with this
condition believe that they are superior to others and hold little regard for the feelings
or circumstances of other people. Narcissists can behave in socially distressing ways,
limiting their ability to function in personal and professional relationships. Often
behind this mask of ultra-confidence lies a fragile self-esteem, vulnerable to the
slightest criticism. (Mayo Clinic Staff)
3. Collaborative Project Goal
Via public art and social
networking we hope to
promote overall self-
awareness; to learn
together how to
employ healthy
methods of expressing
oneself artistically and
professionally without
loosing respect for the
feelings and
circumstances of
others.
4. Details of Project
• As a group we created and maintain a Facebook page titled
“Mirrors” to record progress of this project and communicate
via social networking.
https://www.facebook.com/mirrorsproject?ref=hl
• We each created artifacts to be placed publicly to direct
attention to our Facebook page. As a group we distributed our
artifacts in locations people would be looking in mirrors:
restrooms, beauty salons, tanning bed booths, dressing
rooms, tattoo parlors.
• We focused our research on four areas related to narcissism:
– Narcissism on the Internet
– The Psychology of Insecurity
– Consumerism and Importance of Name Brands/Labels
– Behavioral Health: Coping With and Combating
Narcissism

• - World Health Organization
ICD-10 (2008)
• “In data from 37,000 college students,
narcissistic personality traits rose just as fast as
obesity from the 1980s to the present, with the
shift especially pronounced for women.”

W. K. Campbell
7. Is Facebook really making us
lonely?
Narcissism on Internet was meant to help
the Internet broaden our horizons – instead
doing the opposite
continued… Narcissists are using Facebook
the same way they use their
other relationships: self
promotion with an emphasis on
quantity of over quality
In an anonymous online study,
people admit to posting pictures
simply to get “likes” or “reblogs”,
not to stay connected.
- World Health Organization (2008)
8. Insecurity is an
The Psychology of
emotion brought Insecurity
on by the mental
torment of the
desire to be
perfect. Peers,
media, and culture
influences a person
to change what
they really are
physically and
mentally.
9. Society’s priorities on what’s really important
in life seem to be lying in what’s the
hottest trend in clothing and beauty
products.
“A mans Self is the sum total of all that he CAN
call his, not only his body and his psychic
powers, but his clothes and his house…his
lands, and yacht and bank account” –

“Malls express our consumer culture, revealing us to
ourselves
and the
Importance
of Labels
10. The Nacirema
Horace Miner wrote a critique on the Nacirema, including
information on certain practices and beliefs in their culture.
Every house has one or more shrines devoted to avoiding debility and
disease of the body through ritual and ceremony.
“The focal point of the shrine is a box or chest which is built into the
wall. In the chest are kept the many charms and magical potions
without which no native believes he could live…”
Were it not for the ritual of the mouth, which includes inserting a
small bundle of hog hairs into the mouth, along with certain magical
powders, and visiting a holy-mouth-man that even “if there are no
naturally occurring holes in the teeth, large sections of one or more
teeth are gouged out so that the supernatural substance can be
applied. In the clients view, the purpose of these ministrations is to
arrest decay and to draw friends”
12. Narcissism is
Fueled by
Culture
• Parenting: “My child deserves
better than what I had.”
• Popular Media: Teaching the
“acceptable image” and
persuading the purchase of
“necessary things.”
• Professionalism: The belief that
abundance of confidence will
lead to success in life.
• Entitlement: Development and
imitation of ways to “work”
systems (i.e. welfare, federal
aid, union support, legal
processes) for personal benefit
and exploitation.
13. Behavioral • Narcissism has been declared a
Health: What “behavioral disorder” and even an
“epidemic in America” by various
psychologists and other professionals
to Consider (NBCNews.com)
• Narcissistic Behavioral Disorder is treated
professionally by use of psychotherapy
and anti-depressant / anti-anxiety drugs
(Mayo Clinic Staff)
• Not everyone who behaves selfishly or
with elevated self-esteem is a narcissist.
• A healthy balance of self-worth and
humility/modesty is something generally
learned through life experiences.
