Overcome difficult times
Contemplating life with a grave, serious, and unsmiling demeanor appears justified when reflecting on the profound capacity for wickedness within our species. The pages of human history are stained with instances of monstrous suffering, driven by unbridled greed and an insatiable penchant for cruelty. Our minds, often capricious and unruly, lead us down labyrinthine paths of error and chaos, leaving no soul untouched by the formidable challenges existence throws our way.

Self-esteem has its roots in the value we place on ourselves - basically our self-worth. It has little to do with money or material things, but a lot to do with self-perception, and is governed by how we routinely feel about ourselves.

On Christmas Day, or whenever more people than usual get together, it can be stressful for the hosts with all the demands that are likely to be placed upon them. Thy want everything o be right, and everyone to be happy, and my guess is that some people would be saying 'YES' to certain requests they believe are unreasonable, yet feeling impotent to do anything about it because of the desire to appear caring and empathetic.

Are all personality disorders the outcomes of frustrated narcissism? During our formative years (6 months to 6 years old), we are all “narcissists”. Primary Narcissism is a useful and critically important defense mechanism. As the infant separates from his mother and becomes an individual, it is likely to experience great apprehension, fear, and pain. Narcissism shields the child from these negative emotions.
