Maybe, you are a narcissist if you never met a mirror you couldn’t pass by or your phone camera is full of selfies, according to a 2013 article in\u00a0Psychology Today.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article by\u00a0Susan Krauss Whitbourne, Ph.D., who is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, list 10 ways to tell if you are a narcissist.<\/p>\n

She writes in the article that some people believe that we are becoming a narcissistic nation, but they rarely include themselves in those statistics.<\/p>\n

Clinically, narcissism is one of the diagnoses in DSM-5, a category that includes a variety of behaviors revolving around the key symptoms of extreme self-centeredness, she writes.<\/p>\n

Short of qualifying for a diagnosis, however, many people exhibit moderate, even healthy forms of narcissism that help them adapt to some of life\u2019s stresses and strains. For example, being concerned about your appearance may help you stay healthy by motivating you to work out to look fit, according to Krauss Whitbourne.<\/p>\n

We can think of narcissism as occurring in degrees, from the adaptive, healthy, variety to the pathological form that interferes with your happiness and ability to succeed in your life tasks, she writes<\/p>\n

Although you need to be formally assessed by a mental health professional to determine with some certainty that your narcissism is leaning toward the maladaptive form, these ten cues can give you a start by helping you honestly and objectively evaluate your own extreme self-centeredness by checking off the number of these behaviors you think you show, Krauss Whitbourne maintains.<\/p>\n
