What is narcissism really?
We come across the term narcissism more and more often – in the media, on social networks or in everyday conversations. But what is actually behind it?
In everyday life, narcissism is often equated with arrogance or vanity. In fact, however, a deep emotional imbalance can lie behind this behaviour: people with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) often suffer from an inner lack of self-worth and try to compensate for it through control, admiration and manipulation.
5 typical signs of narcissistic behaviour
1. A sense of superiority
A narcissist considers themselves exceptional – and demands that others treat them that way too. They exaggerate successes, ignore weaknesses and deliberately seek out people who boost their self-esteem.
2. Sense of entitlement
Anyone who thinks they are better than others also expects preferential treatment. Narcissists tend to ignore rules and relentlessly demand what they feel they are “entitled” to.
3. Escape into fantasy worlds
Those affected often live in an inner bubble in which they see themselves as admirable, flawless or irreplaceable. Criticism is perceived as a threat and not infrequently leads to outbursts of anger.
4. Craving for admiration
Narcissists need the recognition of others like the air they breathe. But real emotional closeness? Not a chance. It is only about confirming themselves – not about engaging with others.
5. Lack of empathy
Those affected often find it very difficult to put themselves in other people's shoes. They take advantage of others without a guilty conscience – as long as it serves their own interests.
Narcissism in everyday life – a silent burden for those around them
Whether in a relationship, in family life or at work: people with narcissistic patterns can have a profound impact on the lives of those around them. Anyone in a relationship with a narcissist often suffers from emotional exhaustion, self-doubt and social isolation.
💡 How can you protect yourself?
If you are around a narcissistic person, emotional self-care is particularly important. Here are our tips for setting emotional boundaries:
✅ 1. Set clear boundaries
Narcissists do not respect weakness – so it is important to stay true to yourself and to be able to say no.
🟢 Tip: The Bach flower blend no. 77 strengthens your inner resilience.
✅ 2. Get support
Talk to people you trust about your experiences. Isolation is one of the tools of narcissistic manipulation – openness is the first step towards freedom.
✅ 3. Choose the “grey rock” strategy
Narcissists love drama. If you react in a boring, matter-of-fact and calm way, they quickly lose interest in a conflict.
✅ 4. Document incidents
A diary or notes help you not to lose sight of reality – especially if you have been emotionally manipulated.
