Narcissism is a mental disorder in which a person's personality is shaped inwardly. This means that the person is so consumed by themselves that they try to attune everything to their needs. Only a psychiatrist can diagnose this personality disorder. But if you are with a parent who seems to display narcissistic traits, you must inform other adults to get them treated.

Narcissistic people have low self-esteem and try to hide behind a stern exterior. They might seem threatening or may even hurt you if their self-esteem is under threat, but you have to be strong and protect yourself. And if you feel their treatment or behavior towards you is unhealthy or suffocating, you must involve others.

You can also take this narcissistic parent quiz and try to read your parent's behaviors the next time they are unfair to you.
