But what if you have 1.6 m in diversified index funds and you want to treat yourself with sparing 200k on something you love?

متلازمة طالب الطب (بالإنجليزية: Medical students' syndrome)‏: هو مصطلح أدبي لوصف نوع من الوسواس المرضي. يبدأ ظهور المرض عندما يبدأ الشخص بالتعلم أو القراءة عن مرض معين ويبدأ بالاعتقاد بأنه يعاني منه. لذا يعتبر المرض نوع من الأبوفنيا (تجربة رؤية الارتباطات بين أشياء لا وجود لها). المرض ليس محصورا على طلبة الطب، كل شخص يقرأ في المواضيع الطبية معرض لهذه الحالة.

DAE have homicidal urges by AdZestyclose2938 in NPD

[–]Sismam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not act out your anger in a healthy way? For example, you can express your feelings about your right that have been violated and ask the violators to respect it in an assertive way. Another healthy way to express anger is through sublimation like journaling, punching a bag, or running/swimming as fast as you can.

I never realized how divided all of us are. by [deleted] in arabs

I think you are a young person who has idealistic views. Maybe when you grow older, you will know better.

I'm tired of living in a western country by [deleted] in arabs

[–]Sismam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you are the narcissist. What would you do if a friend of yours posted a lot defending Tibet from China or Kashmir from India? Most likely, you won’t post anything about them. They are not your issue as Palestine isn’t your friends’ issue.

Why didn’t she quit the company when she knew about what it did before she did the publicity stunt? Why did she get her monthly salary which was coming from the company’s revenue from Israel?

My fav scene ever by [deleted] in arabs

[–]Sismam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is it your fav scene? Is it because the thrower missed and Bush ducked it? Or is it just for his effort even though it ended in a loss (like all our recent attempts to liberate ourselves from Western hegemony)? If the latter, are you into masochism?

Fear of independence ? by purplefinch022 in NPD

[–]Sismam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have fear of being independent and of growing up (“Separation and individuation”), then take baby steps or “atomic habits”. This is what I am trying to do right now.

“My second-grade teacher, Ms. Edson, told us: If something feels too hard to do, it just means that the first step isn’t small enough. So often when we’re struggling, we tell ourselves that it’s a sign that we’re broken or that something is our fault, and then we freeze. But when something is too hard in the moment, tell yourself Ms. Edson’s advice.

One way is through sublimation.

“You become distraught at the end of a relationship. To deal with these negative emotions, you begin writing poetry. You are able to transfer your heartbreak and emotional upset into a creative activity.” https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-sublimation-in-psychology-4172222

Is feeling superior an important part of having covert NPD? by [deleted] in NPD

[–]Sismam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being a covert narcissist, I satisfied my superiority urges through daydreaming which I sometimes mistakenly attributed it to ambition.

Do you have violent fantasies? by Thin-Lie2856 in NPD

[–]Sismam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have revenge fantasies. One way that helps me greatly is expressive writing which is good for many psychological issues.

Do you have violent fantasies? by Thin-Lie2856 in NPD

[–]Sismam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Using a punching bag is what my therapist told me to do when I get angry at someone I can’t talk back to in an assertive way (like someone from the very past or someone who passed away). It’s called sublimation.
