As the name of this narcissist says, it’s literally a malignant type. Those who have already met such people that they can ruin your life in numerous different ways.
I’ve promised to go through 5 most common narcissist types, and so far we have covered a covert narcissist, which you can read more about here.
Malignant narcissist is definitely different from everyone – it’s the most extreme personality disorder in this spectrum and is characterized by a mix of high grandiosity, paranoia, as well as sadism. Antisocial behavior can be spotted as well, but not in the manner of being introverted, but by not following social and environmental rules of all sorts.
These types of narcissist believe that such rules are not meant for them – they can do whatever they want and, of course, get away with it without suffering the consequences.
A malignant narcissist will enjoy the suffering of others. They find joy and pleasure in your pain.
They are always using manipulation of all sorts, together with being extremely aggressive and abusive.
When it comes to paranoia, these people always talk about how everyone has something against them.
Relationships with these kind of people are completely exhausting, and the recovery can take for a few years – of course, if you succeed in escaping them.
As a family member, they will try to control you. You will never see them help you, but they will rather help a stranger to confirm their fake picture and status of being good.
They also cannot tolerate any sort of criticism and will always blame the others. A malignant narcissist doesn’t know how to say sorry.
They cannot love you – they don’t know what love is. Even when it comes to their children, malignant narcissists see their kids as an extension of them, always having expectations of how they should behave and what they must achieve.
They believe that they are special and chosen, as well as better than others. They live in their own fantasies.
When it comes to the truth, they are in core very vulnerable and have a very low self-esteem. A malignant narcissist also lacks the ability to self regulate.
A malignant narcissist expects others to constantly validate their fake superiority. They are seeking to win at all costs. In fact, they are very irresponsible and will cause others numerous problems, big or small ones.
