The definition of narcissistic personality disorder is a mental disorder
自恋型人格障碍的定义是一种精神障碍
in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for admiration and a lack of empathy for others.
患有这种障碍的人自我重要感爆棚,对钦佩有种深层次的需要且对他人缺乏同理心 。
But behind this mask of ultra confidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism.
但是在极端自信的背后深藏着脆弱的自尊,几乎小小的一丝批评就会将其击碎 。
While narcissists might think of themselves as all-powerful and invincible, there are a lot of things which scare them.
虽然自恋者或许认为自己是无所不能的,是无可战胜的,但是总有些让他们害怕的东西 。
1. Relationship commitment.
1. 关系承诺 。
Probably one of the things which narcissists fear the most is committing to a relationship.
或许自恋者最害怕的事物之一就是对一段关系的承诺 。
Narcissists never let their guard down and being in a real relationship means
自恋者从不会让自己放松警惕,一段真实的关系意味着
you can't put up walls and hydrate yourself as so many narcissists do.
你无法垒起墙砖,让自己隐形,就像大多数自恋者多做的一样 。
Being that close to someone also exposes their insecurities
和另一个人如此的亲近也会暴露他们的不安全感
and some narcissists are scared that their partners will find out their deepest, darkest secrets.
一些自恋者害怕他们的伴侣发现他们内心最深处、最黑暗的秘密 。
Do you know anyone who's like this?
你有认识这样的人么?
2. Self-reflection.
2. 反省 。
When it comes to narcissists, a lot of them are in complete denial.
提到自恋者,很多人是完全否认的 。
For many, the one thing they fear most is coming to terms with who they really are. They like to think of themselves as perfect.
对很多自恋者来说,他们最恐惧的一件事就是忍受真实的自己 。他们喜欢认为自己是完美的 。
They are afraid that if they look to deep within themselves they will find things that they don't want to cope with.
他们害怕如果窥视内心深处的自己,他们会发现一些自己无法忍受的东西 。
3. Insults. Narcissists actually fear being insulted more than you might expect.
3. 侮辱 。自恋者真的比你想象的要更加害怕受到侮辱 。
Although they are quick to dish out criticism to others, they simply can't handle the dose of their own medicine.
虽然他们会迅速回击对方,但是他们无法以牙还牙 。
Since most narcissists actually have really fragile self-esteems,
由于多数自恋者自尊非常脆弱,
an insult can be a humiliating blow to their inflated egos and it's something they're really afraid of.
侮辱对他们膨胀的自我来说是羞辱性的一击,也是他们真正害怕的 。
4. Shame. Narcissists will do anything to avoid feeling the sting of shame.
4. 羞耻 。自恋者会竭尽所能避免一丝羞耻感 。
It's interesting to note that while they fear shame, they don't fear guilt.
有意思的是虽然他们害怕羞耻,但却不害怕内疚 。
This means that they fear being seen as unworthy in society and being lower in the social hierarchy.
这意味着他们害怕被社会认为是一个没有价值的人,害怕处于较低的社会阶层 。
They don't however fear the guilt of actually hurting someone's feelings.
但他们不害怕伤害别人感情后的内疚感 。
5. Lack of admiration. In a sense, narcissists are very much like performers.
5. 缺乏钦佩之感 。在某种意义上,自恋者很像是表演者 。
They crave attention and they want to be admired more than anything else.
他们渴求关注,他们希望被钦佩 。
They are terrified that their attempts to impress others will be completely ignored.
他们害怕自己引起被人关注的努力被完全无视 。
While some people are fine going through life completely unnoticed, narcissists are the total opposite.
一些人并不在意有没有被关注,但是自恋者完全相反 。
6. Getting exposed.
6. 暴露 。
Sometimes narcissists can find themselves in a thick web of lies that they've created.
有时自恋者会发现自己处于自己用谎言编造的网中 。
They might lie about their past exploits to impress people or lie to manipulate others.
他们或许对自己的过去的经历撒谎只为给别人留下印象,或是为了掌控他人而撒谎 。
While these lies might help them get what they want,
虽然这些谎言或许能帮助他们得到自己想要的,
deep down they have a huge fear of being exposed and getting called out on their dishonest behavior.
但在内心深处,他们非常恐惧自己暴露,因自己不诚实的行为而挨骂 。
7. Feeling gratitude.
7. 感激之情 。
Narcissists are also totally incapable of saying those simple words, thank you.
自恋者完全不会说‘谢谢’之类的简单词汇 。
Gratitude is a completely foreign emotion to them and again this probably all stems from fear.
感激对他们来说完全是一种异物之情,这一点或许来源于他们的恐惧 。
Saying thank you means that they were relying on someone and narcissists will never admit that they need anybody's help.
说谢谢意味着信赖对方,自恋者从不会承认他们需要任何人的帮助 。
Lastly, death. Believe it or not, many narcissists see themselves as gods.
最后一点,死亡 。不管你信不信,很多自恋者将自己视为神 。
They think they're untouchable that nothing bad will ever happen to them and that everything they touch will turn to gold.
他们认为自己是不可捉摸的,任何糟糕的事情都不会发生在他们身上,他们触碰到的一切事物都会变成金子 。
But everyone knows that even the most powerful people on earth can't beat death and this is something that most narcissists are terrified of.
但是大家都知道即使是地球上最具威力的人都无法抗拒死亡,死亡正是多数自恋者害怕的 。
