Understanding Empathy in Narcissists: The Brain and Behavior Breakdown

Their starting point always is that they are good enough. But I'm really hoping that by me breaking it down for you, it takes away some maybe guilt or shame, or maybe lack of knowledge as to why the narcissist is behaving like this and leaving you questioning: well, am I a narcissist or not a narcissist?
Ever wondered why narcissists seem to lack empathy? Caroline Strawson tackles this perplexing question in this episode of 'The Narcissistic Abuse & Trauma Recovery Podcast'. She breaks down the three types of empathy—cognitive, emotional, and compassionate—and explains the brain regions responsible for each. Caroline sheds light on why narcissists, according to the DSM, struggle with empathy and how they sometimes fake it to get what they want. She also shares her personal experiences, making the discussion both relatable and enlightening.
If you're trying to make sense of a narcissist's behavior or cope with the absence of empathy in your relationships, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to understand the intricate dynamics of empathy and narcissism, and gain insights into your own healing journey.
