This is just a brief announcement to bring a recent article at Scientific American to viewers' attention.

The article features Jacob Skidmore at @Thenamelessnarcissist and Tessa at @spiritnarc , two self-aware individuals with NPD who have been working to spread humanizing and destigmatized representations of this disorder.

The article is also a rare example of a piece written for the public that gets NPD right. It features the work of Elsa Ronningstam and Aaron Pincus, two prominent authors on the topic of pathological narcissism who have been referenced on this channel. It correctly identifies grandiose and vulnerable presentations of the disorder, describes the diagnostic controversies surrounding NPD, dips into the theoretical models conceptualizing pathological narcissism, and references common developmental histories of NPD patients that include relational trauma.
