personality disorder

Personality disorders are as complex as they are misunderstood; delve into this diagnosis and learn the typical cognitions, behaviors, and inner experience of those inflicted.

Narcissism And Personality Disorders
Are all personality disorders the outcomes of frustrated narcissism? During our formative years (6 months to 6 years old), we are all “narcissists”. Primary Narcissism is a useful and critically important defense mechanism. As the infant separates from his mother and becomes an individual, it is likely to experience great apprehension, fear, and pain. Narcissism shields the child from these negative emotions. By pretending to be omnipotent, the toddler fends off the profound feelings of isolation, unease, pending doom, and helplessness that are attendant on the individuation-separation phase of personal development.

Conquer PTSD: A Roadmap to Overcoming Trauma and Living a Fulfilled Life
Beware, for I speak of a soldier, named John, who had ventured into the abyss of war. He bore witness to unspeakable horrors that no mortal should ever have to endure. But when he returned home, the demons of his past followed him. They haunted his every step, whispering in his ear every night. He was consumed by the memories of what he had seen, unable to escape the terror that had taken root in his mind. He would often wake up screaming, covered in sweat, his heart pounding as if it would burst out of his chest. He avoided crowded places, for fear of being trapped, and he would lash out at anyone who got too close. But his fate, his ultimate descent into the abyss, remains shrouded in mystery. Some say he was consumed by his demons, others say he went mad, but all that is certain, is that he was never the same again. Beware, for the horrors of war can linger and claim even the strongest of minds.

Feeling Lonely?
Loneliness often manifests itself as a state of unease or social misery. Maybe you're feeling alone, unfeeling, and unloved. It's possible that even someone with plenty of friends might feel lonely sometimes. You may be part of a big family or be actively involved in a devoted relationship. It is possible to feel lonely even while in the company of people or when holding the hand of someone you care about. It is possible to feel lonely and alone even being in the company of others.

Notes From An INFJ’s Childhood Journals
I recently began reading through 37 journals that I’ve filled since I was 15 years old. Being an INFJ means I am a pattern-making machine by default. Naturally, I noticed several intriguing themes that I grappled with throughout my adolescence. I was inspired to write this post, thinking that by sharing these patterns I may be able to shed a light on some of the valuable insights we have that often go unnoticed.
