Narcissistic collapse occurs when individuals with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) can no longer maintain their grandiose self-image, resulting in emotional breakdowns characterized by irritability and anger.
Those undergoing a narcissistic collapse exhibit signs like defensiveness and aggression, as they grapple with feelings of rejection and a lost sense of self.
The effects of narcissistic collapse extend beyond the individual, impacting their loved ones too, who may experience stress and confusion trying to navigate the fallout.
Symptoms of NPD, such as low self-esteem, become pronounced during a narcissistic collapse, leading to unpredictable behaviors as the individual reacts to their perceived failures.
