…until it is someone with narcissistic personality disorder, psychopathy and sociopathy, but mostly NPD.

EDIT: There seems to be some misunderstandings about this post. It is not an attack on this community or the users here, it’s just a general vent I have for the type of people that claim to be anti-ableist until it is something they don’t like.

    As someone with a NPD parent I don’t know if I could agree with you. But yeah, me and my siblings might not be on the good statistics.

      One of my parents is a woman. And she was an abusive woman. But do I hate women? No. That’s because I understand that my personal experiences aren’t always indicative of the state of the larger world. Now, you probably think the idea of hating women because of an abusive woman parent is ridiculous, and you’re right. It’s ridiculous because you and I have met many women, and we know that most women aren’t abusive. I have also met many people living with NPD, and that’s why I know thinking people who suffer from NPD are abusive is ridiculous. But if you’ve never been to an NPD support group, you probably haven’t met a lot of pwNPD, and you probably don’t have the directly experienced perspective to instinctively understand what I do. Which is why it’s important for everyone to understand the limits of our own experience.
