The Covert Narcissist

In this episode I want to explain to you why my covert narcissism is somewhat of a super power and how it recently saved me from becoming friends with a narcissist!

Welcome to season 4 of the Covert Narcissist. What's new? Season 4 will have no script. None at all. This way, I'm trying to be even more authentic and honest.

In this first episode, I will talk about...

Wrapping up season 1, I finally talk about the traumatic events of 2021 that sent me on the journey to discover myself and my narcissistic personality disorder.

Now I can say my Narcissism made me an alcoholic. Of course I’m not trying to blame a disorder for the choices I’ve made. And I’m not trying to play the victim. I’m trying to explain to you what has led me to the conclusion.

Today I want to talk about jealousy and envy. I believe both are fundamental human feelings, usually associated with fear of losing someone or something. I’ve heard that some people claim to not be jealous or envious AT ALL, but I fail to believe that. I think of myself as a moderately jealous and envious person. After all, it’s their loss if they leave me for someone else. And envious? The hot bo...
