Narsis dan NPD, istilahnya dua polar atau kutub, yang satu di kiri, yang kadarnya diperlukan sebagai manusia, selama kadarnya pas, NPD di sisi kanan, ketika kadarnya sudah berlebihan dan dianggap tidak "normal". Walaupun, apakah "normal" itu? Yang seperti apakah normal itu?
Buku yang saya sarankan bagi kaum awam dan pemula adalah : Will I ever Be Good Enough, karangan Karyl McBride, Ph.D.
Untuk YouTube, Karyl memiliki beberapa video singkat, search words nama beliau.
Video lain yang menurut saya baik dicerna ialah dengan search words : lisa a romano narcissist (narcissist ditik supaya langsung ke video-video dengan penekanan pada isu NPD).
Thread ini dibuat sebagai wadah sharing pengalaman, ide buku-buku, video, dll.
Semua orang berhak hidup dengan damai dan bahagia.
