Lets talk about narcissists. I know several. They drain my energy. What about you?

There are 2 sections of the DSM that everyone must surely turn to first.
The one on psychopaths and the one on narcissists.
The first with mixed disapproval, admiration and envy (no guilt and charming), but narcissism because it is on the rise and has been enshrined in popular culture and (anglo saxon at least) politics.

I have alway wanted to read Christopher Lasch's "The Culture of Narcissism".

Narcissists never bother me because I always know I'm better than they are.
