I don't think that's what narcissism is.
People with NPD aren't transexual.

yes they are. NPD and BPD are the most common comorbidities found in trans patients.
but you said yourself you don't know what narcissism is. so maybe you don't know what i'm talking about.
narcissism is main character syndrome. in practice it manifests as lack of empathy, selfishness, and a preternatural entitlement to one's chosen "story". for some narcissists, this means being treated as famous. for some, it's being treated as an object of desire.

Are you making this up?
Among TGNC adolescents, depressive disorders were most common (transfeminine 49%; transmasculine 62%) compared with other diagnostic categories.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7084367/
an overall prevalence of PDs of 52% was found, with 22% prevalence of Cluster B PDs (with narcissistic PD showing the highest prevalence in the overall sample)
your linked study doesn't appear to have studied for NPD or doesn't differentiate between it and "personality disorders" in general.
also narcissism is hard to detect and narcissists don't self-report it, so in lieu of a more critical approach i could see it being grouped under "depressive disorder".

I couldn't. There are diagnostic criteria.

the prevalence of comorbid NPD is well documented elsewhere and widely acknowledged among trans communities.

Just not as prevalent as depression.

you know how diagnosing depression works right? there's no medical test; they don't draw blood.
they just ask, "are you depressed?" - or worse, you show up having self-diagnosed, and they accept it because they don't get paid unless they diagnose and medicate.
a narcissist would be the first kind of person to link all their problems to a nonspecific "depression", because they are depressed by the cognitive dissonance they experience when the world doesn't validate them and tell their story the way they want. it is a symptom of their pathology, not a disorder in itself. there is no such thing as a chemical imbalance.

Is it your belief that NPD and BPD are diagnosed with a blood test?
[–]alladd 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun - 1 year ago (2 children)
they're diagnoses made by the professional, not by the patient. that's the difference. every narcissist is okay with being diagnosed with depression; none of them want to find out they have narcissism.
