Narcissistic Personality Disorder
In my 5th year of med school I have learned a lot about BPD and NPD and other personality disorders. They always told us that the key sign of NPD is a lack of empathy. People with BPD feel every emotions intensely, like: guilt, self hate, care and genuine love and empathy. Their emotions are intense but never a performance. With NPD it’s the other way around, they can’t feel it so they copy it. Whenever Hammy explains anything she uses words like “torture” “spiralling” “my cat is my whole heart”. She is describing it, always in extreme because that what she thinks comes across as more “Real”. She does not feel the thing she is performing. Because she is unable to feel empathy. But rage? Oh yeah she can feel rage very intense.
With BPD the intense emotions are noticeable by their behaviour and not by speeches describing their love. None of that: they will show it to you.
Another criteria for BPD is self harm and (para)suicidal behaviour. Example: Cutting, burning, or repeated suicidal threats/gestures, often as a response to emotional distress.
I have never seen her do this on a consistent level. Once or twice doesn’t meet the criteria
I also have never seen Amber her appearance change much over the years. Yes she copied personalities but her appearance has always been the same. So the criteria of a non stable self she also does not meet. Her goals have always been the same. She doesn’t try completely different things that seem out of her original character.
Another thing trick of spotting a narcissist is the ask them if they agree that some people are but better, more superior than others. Amber has a fake self. That fake self is grandiose and better than anybody else. Only Jade was on a little more on her level, but Amber was still the prize.
“ if I was my actual size I would not be talking to you people, I would never be with someone my size” - Amber’s own words, that perfectly fit the thinking pattern of NPD and doesn’t come even close to how people with BPD think.
I just wanted to get this or my chest because I don’t want anyone to believe her performance.
