Been a little while since I have posted, but have had a hang up with the possibility of being a narcissist the last 2 years now. Recently discovering what “peter pan syndrome” is I believe I may have a case of it lol. For example, I’m still a very imagination based person, I don’t like reality very much to say the least, and my imagination is my escape, but also my worst enemy. I have trouble taking responsibility for my own actions, and become very offended at perceived slights. I’ve talked to numerous psychologists the last couple years and none of them agreed that I may be a narcissist, but I do exhibit very many characteristics of one. I’m often cold, love attention, and consider myself the smartest, most attractive person in the room. I spend way too much time theorizing, but sometimes theories are right. Anyone that cares to respond with your own opinion, I’d be interested in hearing it.
I googled it and it’s basically about not accepting grown up responsibility. Dunno. What if you have trouble with responsibility because of schizophrenia.
Why you want to be hard on yourself?
Be anything. Nobody is right.
That’s true, but I usually blamed other people even before I had schizophrenia. Usually insight into this kind of problem means you’re more likely not to have it, but there is exceptions to that. Idk, seems like there’s a connection between this and sza, not that everyone who has sza has “Peter pan syndrome”, but both are relating to your imagination being out of hand.
I’ve heard it a million times, I’ll listen one day. But I know you’re right
Thank you for the post
The “voices” were saying that I have it too lol.
I always say I have Peter Pan syndrome, but I’m referring it as the girl who never grew up in more of a I’m a child at heart! I love to play around and be silly!
