Present era
Today,
a disease that seems to be spreading all around is self-indulgence. This
disease prevalent in different sections of the society is seen in the form of
talents and somewhere in the form of war. Whatever happens to this disease, it
is drowned, other people are also harmed on many levels.
By Research
This the peak of complacency was treated as a disease in psychology, and an essay titled
"On Narcissism" was also written by Sigmund Freud, a world-renowned psychologist for his psychology research. Later it was made a part of the curriculum of psychology and today it is a subject of research as an important
assumption.
In American culture, the
way of praising someone or saying I am doing well, or I deserved it, is in
vogue, whereas in India it is taught to be humble on an achievement. But in
this race of modernization, being proud or just looking, is being taught to be
proud of oneself. Proud is positive, but in the absence of inspection, today
the patients of this anomalous disease are increasing in large numbers. In
psychology, it is called NPD ie Narcissism Personality Disorder. Indian culture is taught
to be hesitant about being praised, but nowadays these qualities are not
considered to be smart.

It is a psychological disease, but often the person suffering from it and the people around it, even if they say it only in ego or present-day language, make a distance from that person by understanding the attitude. The person suffering from this disease has such a sense of self-feeling towards himself that he sees evil everywhere in the world. Such a person does not see anyone more beautiful
than himself, more intelligent than himself, superior and knowledgeable. He has
a tendency to do evil and deny every person thing and thought. Doctors say that
such people can’t be friends of anyone, nor are they respected in the family,
because I feel they are their slaves because of the strong sense of the best,
and their family and social life is scattered lives.
How Self Confidence different from Narcissistic?
1. Narcissism is self-focused,
while confidence is not.
2. Narcissism craves affirmation, while confidence does not seek
to prove itself.
3. Narcissism exploits others, while confidence lifts others up.
4. Narcissism avoids blame, while confidence is willing to admit
fault.
5. Narcissism breeds narrow-mindedness, while confidence breeds
perspective.
The person suffering from this disease also
suffers from the desire to look different and unique. And in this desire every
exclusive thing draws him towards him and he fulfills his hobbies without
spending his attention on his pocket because he has to be the center of
attraction everywhere. In
this process, the person is stressed, also those around. He/ She runs towards
the market to relieve the tension arising out of this complacency and then the
new tension, when it becomes an endless series, causes serious negativity in
his personality. They remain unaware of the fact that inner beauty is also a
shay and personality has its own effect.
A person with NPD gets ridiculous in trying
to prove himself superior by resorting to jealousy, malice, texture,
exaggerating his abilities. According to a survey, psychological reasons are found
behind all types of crime, of which NPD is also a reason. Seeing their sense of
self-respect not getting respect in the eyes of others, such a person becomes
depressed, and gradually criminal activities start taking place in them.
Too much attention to
oneself, too hungry to be praised, too much interference in everyone's life,
too much to keep an eye on others' way of life, relationships, etc. and remove
flaws in them to prove them to be inferior to others, ridiculing others. Flying
is also a common symptom that points towards this disease.
People suffering from
this disease lack self-confidence and want to remain the center of attraction
by resorting to the same deficiency. People also recognize the spirit of such
people by giving them a regular dose of false true compliments and by confirming
their feelings and take a selfish interest.
