INTRODUCTION

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a multiplex personality disorder often invented with other affective and personality disorders.The word “ narcissism” originates from greek word mythology. It is the story of narcissus, a handsome young man who fell in love with his own reflection on a pool of water. The word narcissism is also known as  self obsessed, often to describe someone who seems  full of idiomaticity. They are their own topmost priority. People suffering from this condition are in love with this inflated self image as it allows them to avoid the deep feeling of insecurity. Narcissistic personality disorder involves egocentric, aggressive  thinking and behaviour, lack of affinity for the people.
