i talked to my therapist a few weeks ago at the end of a session, and he told me that narcissists seldom go to therapy - if they go, it's because they feel that everyone out there is wronging and belittling them.
they have low self-esteem, which doesn't feel good - but they can put others below them, which feels nice for them. it's a personal insult if someone else knows something better.
in the view of the narcissist, the therapist as a professional is insulting them every session, which results in them insulting and belittling the therapist. it takes years to make any progress.
i compared it to a garage project for tinkerers, something you don't expect to ever work - he loudly burst into laughter and agreed with my analysis.
I can't shake the feeling that Elon is a garage project for tinkerers.
