Interesting.! Over the years there have been many arguments made about the fact that associating all narcissists with abusive behaviors is ableist and stigmitizes NPD. It's difficult to read and aknowledge those comments, because as someone with ADHD, I understand how harmful stigmas surrounding mental health can affect people. On the other hand, as a victim of narcissistic abuse, I understand how invalidating it can feel to be called an ableist for speaking about the red flags of abuse.
I was not aware of these findings, which seem to dismantle that ableism argument a bit. I'm curious if you've seen this discourse about NPD stigma and what are your thoughts?
