Nobody with NPD “suffers” from NPD.
Those with NPD make everyone else suffer!

I admire you for saying that. It’s like that with people with Borderline PD, everyone says how much the mentally ill person suffers, but the people around them suffer all the more. I remember reading about Munchhausen by proxy psychotics, and it sometimes tends to talk about how it is difficult to treat since the ‘sufferer’ has to admit they have a problem and seek and work with treatment. Go figure, no one ever mentions the people getting victimized by the psychos.
There is a saying that a narcissist will never go for therapy but he will drive at least 4 other people to it.
True. That reminds me of a line from the old series, "Dallas". Larry Hagman's character says, "J.R. Ewing doesn't get ulcers; he gives 'em!"
