Most people will tell you that there is no hope and no treatment for narcissism. And if we’re talking about the pathological disorder NPD, I would agree there is probably very little likelihood of change. But most people who are labeled narcissist or NPD don’t actually have the disorder. Rather, they are somewhere on the spectrum, with some to many traits. This is the population we primarily work with here at the Marriage Recovery Center and we get a lot of flak for our position on this topic which is yes, treatment for narcissism is possible. We’re not saying it’s always possible for everyone. In this video, Dr. Hawkins talks about what it really takes for successful treatment and real change to occur.

Do narcissists just wake up one day and come to a realization that they are a narcissist? And from there, would they even want to change? And then if they decide to change, will their efforts to change make them a more normal person?

Can I get some therapy from you ? I’ve been trying to understand myself and why I am the way I am

@MsGenXodus says:

I always wondered if a reformed narcissist has to struggle with all the harm they have caused. Like the phrase “How can you live with yourself?”

Are reformed narcissists just mired in regret and grief having lived such horrible lives?

@michaelmeletio7714 says:

doesn’t really say at all how to stop being a narcissist like title states

@-chantelle- says:

I feel like this is only telling someone how to tell if someone is getting better, not showing someone how to get better

@olivermclaren1470 says:

I have autism , and people have always chalked up how i act to that , but if im honest with myself , im a narcissist

@grybnyx says:

This guy honestly didn't know why a person who is sober for 17 still goes to meetings? And he's a therapist? That's a red flag.

@oscarortizgonzalez1713 says:

@CrouchingscarabflyingJ says:

You literally said the same thing 4 times. How invested someone is in treatment determines the success of said treatment, sure. But i want to know about treatment, like your video title says

@justrosy5 says:

Treat them like the child they mentally are. The End.

@arthurbalcita4851 says:

Sometime it also depends on how they really want to change or not, because some knew they are narcissist but still deny they are not. By Amelia

@YokoDiAn says:

All fine and well! How to stop a narcist from blocking you from approaching your lovely dad which is in the hospital again! And keeps on blocking his health ? I don’t see any help in your video? Please urgently help x

@user-ov1og5lm3d says:

So is the recovery a 12 step program? I'm in narcotics anonymous and I learned in my 4th step that I have narcissistic traits and once I learned that I went to work on myself. I learned my part in any given situation and learned to put myself in the other person's shoes and look at what my behaviors did to them. A big part of my recovery is to understand rather than being understood.

@MikeyJ1572 says:

i recommend the following two books:
The Tao Te Ching – teaches you how to be truly humble, among other things
The Four Agreements – teaches you how to respect others and yourself

@IyayiOkundia-Agho-rj5py says:

I was an extremely people pleaser and then I stopped, sending me straight into be a narcissistic person. I will change for myself and the people around me

@brightpage1020 says:

Is narcissism contagious? Like reactive abuse?

Obviously, it's still abuse and maybe healthier boundaries are in order… But…

Can people get like more hormronaly narcissistic at different times of their life, like when PMSing?

@annettelawson-landry3118 says:

A A doesn’t help everyone! It works if you work it! My X was sober from alcohol for 20 plus years but was unable to be honest with me for 13 years
