Spot A Malignant and Communal Narcissist...

Dr. Phil McGraw
About this episode

Dr. Phil continues his discussion about malignant narcissism, which combines narcissistic, Machiavellian, and psychopathic traits. Dr. Phi explains that malignant narcissists are dangerous and will use and abuse others for their own gain, and why you should get out of relationships with a malignant narcissist as swiftly and safely as possible.

Also, learn about the communal narcissist, those who seek attention and validation by doing charitable acts or being overly helpful. Learn why it's important to set boundaries with a communal narcissist and why you need to focus on yourself – not them.
