The Original Narcissism Interviews (Featuring Dr. Ramani)

Psychopath. Sociopath. Narcissist. Most people use these words interchangeably — and most people are wrong. In this in-depth conversation with clinical psychologist Dr. Ramani Durvasula, we break down what actually separates these three personality profiles, why one is born and another is made, the four distinct types of narcissism you'll encounter in the wild, and — if you're dating one — exactly what to do about it. If you've ever thought "something is off with this person, but I can't name it" — this video names it.

Sociopaths are made. • Narcissists are made — through simultaneous overindulgence and emotional neglect. • Narcissism isn't confidence. It's insecurity wearing a costume. • You cannot love a narcissist into changing. You can only change what you accept. ABOUT DR.
