They have a grandiose false self-image and that is why they crave so much attention and feel depleted without it. They need others to feed their own weak self esteem. They hide behind an inflated false self. They are emotional vampires. They feed off of Narcissistic Supply which they are addicted to.
That's my dad. NPD to a tee. Which is why I'm so opposed to religion. It's served as his primary enabler.
A Gemma is forever.
