sub for narcissism

[Shannon]

Is there a possibility to heal from narcissism? Our father is a classic narcissist and my brother seems to have inherited it. He was asking me about this yesterday and said he knows he's an asshole but doesn't believe he's a narcissist. lol He Totally is. Is there any help for this considering they usually don't think They are the ones with the problem? Would it be unethical to play such a sub for a relative who's suffering greatly in their life from said condition? Shannon, just curious to hear thoughts on this and if youve done any work in this area?

Narcissism is a mental disorder that I have not yet studied. I don't know enough about it to say if it can be "healed from".

The obvious thing to try is EHPRA 2.0; however, given the descriptions I've gotten in this thread, I have no idea if it would help heal narcissism, because I don't know what causes it.

If it is a physical disability or a chemical imbalance or a purely psychological result, different things will help. I don't know enough.

It may be that at some point in the future I could adjust EHPRA to be specific to various mental/emotional disorders, but I don't know if it is necessary... I'll need feedback on how it affects narcissists as it is.

As to the ethics question, there is no way I can answer that for you because I don't know enough to make a call there either. You say they are suffering greatly, but how do I know that is actually the case, instead of an opinion? I don't know what's happening, so I cannot give a reasonably thought out answer. Therefore, I will decline to comment on that.
