Low Self Esteem Narcissist Will Attempt

is the grandiose sense of self-importance, but
paradoxically underneath this grandiosity the
narcissist suffers from a chronically fragile low
self-esteem. The grandiosity of the narcissist,
however, is often so pervasive that we tend to
dehumanize him or her. The narcissist conjures in

Socratic writing, Plato provides a strong, very
supported argument while S...
