Do narcissists end up alone?

Yes.

Do narcissists isolate themselves?

Yes.


4 Reasons Undeserved Narcissists, Like Rudy, Are Lonely

Harsh but true...
1) They are unable to connect with people

These folks arguably lack empathy, which means they have no time for heartfelt 
discussions, and even less time for genuine connections. They fail to see why 
having friends and being able to confide in people are important.


2) Their personalities put people off

Whilst people with narcissistic personality disorders can be charming at 
points, their bullish and manipulative behavior always shine through 
eventually. That's right, the prospect of becoming friends with someone so 
devious understandably scares people.


3) They have their walls up

Letting people in is definitely a narcissist's worst nightmare! It's just not 
in their nature to make themselves appear vulnerable and let people into their 
lives. For them, opening up to someone is a synonym of them relinquishing their 
power and losing the upper hand.


4) They are scared to put themselves out there

Despite the facade they hide behind, narcissists are very insecure people and 
are constantly scared of judgment. Their fear of being judged prevents them 
from creating a solid support base around them, and paradoxically encourages 
them to become more devious.


Do narcissists end up alone?

Narcissists frequently end up alone due to the simple fact that they are 
incapable of enjoying healthy relationships. Although the most high-functioning 
ones may be able to fool someone into sticking around for a set amount of time. 
However, generally, their devious ways, lack of empathy, and immeasurable egos 
prevent them from ever finding true love. Plus, they are totally against the 
idea of changing and working on themselves, which evidently scares potential 
suitors away. After all, no one wants to be the only partner making concessions 
and sacrifices in a relationship. Now, although they'll never admit it, ending 
up alone does in fact terrify these folks, however, the prospect isn't 
intimidating enough for them to want to become better people... 


Do narcissists isolate themselves?

A narcissist isolates themselves (at home for example without seeing anyone) 
WHEN they are too overwhelmed; especially in the instance when he has gone 
hunting for new prey, and has received many narcissistic sources. When their 
search for new victims has been successful, they are obliged to withdraw 
themselves from the situation because otherwise they will implode. Although 
narcissists do well for a certain amount of time during their isolation, 
they'll soon take up their narcissistic ways again. In fact, their isolation 
will not exceed 1 week max, because they cannot fight off temptation to 
manipulation any longer.


Does the narcissist ever get sad?

As much as they may like to hide and conceal their emotions, narcissists are 
just like anyone else when it comes to their feelings, meaning they do get sad 
at points. However, that being said, they'll never openly admit to feeling down 
or upset, because they are simply scared of people judging them and looking 
upon them as weak. Plus, these personalities never really talk about their 
feelings either, or share with those close to them when they are feeling down. 
In fact, their behavior gives away when they are sad, because they instantly 
become very vindictive and even more relentless in their actions.


Can a narcissist be likable?

At the beginning, narcissists can come across as very friendly, attractive and 
fun to be around. However, this is just a technique for them to seduce their 
prey and destroy them little by little. Most narcissists are unaware of their 
problem and are convinced that they are acting for the good of others (a 
minority is sadistic and takes pleasure in making others suffer). The 
manipulations of these people can be distinguished from emotional blackmail, 
small lies or guilt-tripping of others, which make everyone more or less 
manipulative. The signs are similar and usually appear in early adulthood. 

Here are 5 signs of a narcissist and how they behave:

an excessive need to be adulated
a strong tendency to megalomania
egocentricity
a low degree of empathy towards others
an excessive quest for recognition.

What do narcissists do when they're alone?

When a narcissist finds themselves alone in their life, they may feel an emotional void or a sense of loneliness, but this 
depends on the person and their level of self-awareness. Some people with narcissistic personality disorder may have difficulty 
coping with loneliness, as they need the attention and validation of others to feel important and valued.

However, other people with narcissistic personality disorder may prefer to be alone rather than in the company of people they 
consider inferior or uninteresting. These people may have interests or passions that keep them busy and give them a sense of 
satisfaction or achievement. In some cases, loneliness can actually reinforce narcissistic behavior in a person with narcissistic 
personality disorder. They may be tempted to put themselves forward or boast more to attract the attention of others, even when 
they're not in their presence. How a person with this personality reacts to loneliness depends on many factors, such as the 
severity of their disorder, their level of self-awareness, and their other personality traits.
Editor's opinion - Expressing their feelings is impossible for them
We all have certain struggles when it comes to talking about how we feel, but a narcissist's inability to express what they are 
going through is definitely more penalizing for them than for anyone else. These personalities are lonely, yet their innate 
traits prevent them for breaking the cycle of loneliness, and also dissuades others from attempting to pull them out of their 
misery.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition

All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike 
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."

Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into 
three distinct phases or stages:

"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, 
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."

"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting 
solely of hyperbole."

"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."

The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything 
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something 
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received 
positively by TDSers.

The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was 
a punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.

Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles 
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people 
in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
