hey ivy, narcissism often stems from deep-seated insecurity and early experiences that created a fragile sense of self. when someone doesn't develop a stable internal worth, they compensate by creating an inflated self-image and seeking constant external validation they struggle to see others as full people with their own needs and feelings, instead viewing them as extensions of themselves or tools for validation. this usually comes from childhood environments where love was conditional on performance or appearance the tricky part is that narcissistic traits exist on a spectrum - we all have some degree of self-focus. it becomes problematic when it consistently harms relationships and prevents genuine connection with others. what made you curious about this topic?
