Do u believe that narcissism is a mental illness ? 🧠

Good question there. Ive been wondering about this for years. 😂 I wonder if the people who really are narcissists are aware that this
is what they are. And that they need help. What do you think ? Some say its spiritual. Others say that this is a mental issue.
What do you think SW. Best answer wins ! ☺

Now when you say mental health, does that include personality disorder?
Because, with out actually looking it up, I think it's actually a learned trait.
Someone was just talking about that here so I think I got that from them.
Something to do with inability to develop deep feelings for others.
As far as do they know they have it?
I can speak from my own personal experiences that most people that have mental issues don't know they have a mental illness. LOL.
Now I know your thinking how could they not????
See I am bipolar but that's not what I sought attention for it was the sluggish feelings and the anxiety was crushing me.
I know two people with text book paranoia and it's clear as all get out to everybody but them.
One guy I even showed the example of finding different meaning in the numbers on the clock, which I guess is something they do. LOL. He still laughed it off and denied he had it.
So I would say narcissist would be just as oblivious.
